Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue
Chapter 1574

Jasper held a deep respect for Alyssa's brothers, particularly Axel, whom he found to be kindredspirits. Their connection felt like a reunion with a friend from long ago, despite meeting later in life."Oh, goodness gracious! Winston!"

Dominic emerged from the corridor with hurried steps and a troubled countenance, urgentlybeckoning for Winston. Close on his heels came the senior shareholders of the KS Group.

Jasper's and Axel's faces turned grim at the sight of this.

Winston had just regained consciousness, yet Dominic wasted no time hurrying to his side. Thiscould only mean Dominic had eyes in the hospital, ensuring he was abreast of every unfoldingsituation.

He pulled out all the stops to present himself as deeply invested in Winston's recovery. However, hisunderlying intention was to disseminate news of Winston's dire illness, generating pressure to sowdiscord within the KS Group and capitalize on the resulting upheaval for personal gain.

While Axel lacked the business acumen to fully grasp the situation's nuances, Jasper, with his keeninsight, easily discerned Dominic's ulterior motives. He could read the intricate machinationsreflected in Dominic's demeanor.

Among the hurried crowd converging at the ward entrance, Axel could discern only Dominic'sfamiliar figure.

Dominic's astonishment was evident as he encountered Jasper's commanding stance at theentrance. After all, who wouldn't know Jasper Beckett, the president of the Beckett Group?Recalling Jasper's connection with Alyssa, Dominic mustered a disingenuous smile and extended hishand. "Ah, Mr. Beckett. It's been quite some time. I had a feeling you'd lend your assistance duringthis critical moment for the Taylor family. After all, we're practically family!”

The remark was a calculated attempt to showcase his closeness to Jasper and bolster his ownimage.

"Ugh!" Axel expressed his disdain with a loud spit and a roll of his eyes.

Dominic was rendered speechless.

Jasper narrowed his eyes, appraising him with a frosty stare. "And you are?”

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Dominic's embarrassment was palpable as his expression stiffened in shock.

Jasper's question cut deep, a humiliating blow.

"Shouldn't common courtesy dictate that you introduce yourself before extending your hand?"Jasper's tone remained cool, his gaze unwaveringly icy. “Besides, it's curious how you claim we'refamily. I am Alyssa’s partner. I hold every member of the Taylor family dear. Why, then, do I notknow who you are?"

Turning slightly to Axel, Jasper asked, "Axel, do you know him?"

Axel blinked his eyes. "I don't think so."

Dominic struggled to contain his outrage, though he knew Winston's sons were not easily swayed."Axel, your sense of humor remains intact after all these years,” he remarked with forced joviality.Then, with a shameless grin directed at Jasper, he continued, "Mr. Beckett, a man of your staturemust replace it difficult to keep track of everyone you meet. I believe we've met more than once, but itwas my mistake. I should have introduced myself."

"This is Mr. Winston's brother, Dominic Taylor, an executive director at the KS Group,” Dominic'ssubordinate interjected, eager to support his boss.

"Ah, Mr. Dominic, the one with the questionable investment instincts.” Jasper's smirk was evident ashe looked down at Dominic. " Have you managed to recover the 50 million you lost?"
