After a brief internal struggle, Alyssa decided to keep it a secret.
Right now, Jasper was filled with guilt and remorse. Of course, she was glad that he showed remorse for what he had done to her in the past, but she did not want him to risk his life once more to make amends.
All she wanted was for him to light up her life. The last thing she wanted was to burden him with more guilt. This was her subtle way of expressing her love.
Jasper's chest tightened when he noticed that she had turned white. Holding her shoulders, he inquired, "Lyse, are you okay?"
"I'm fine." She beamed at him. "I injured my finger climbing a tree as a kid. It's not a big deal and doesn't affect my life at all."
Nevertheless, Jasper felt sympathetic toward her and gently held her pinky finger. "Why didn't any of your brothers take better care of you?"
"They did, but I was a troublemaker who refused to listen," she replied with a pout.
He couldn't resist giving her a peck on the lips as she was too adorable. He promised, "You don't have to trouble your brothers anymore now that I'm with you. I'll take care of you and protect you."
She blushed. He swallowed hard at her shy response as desire stirred in him.
"Oh, by the way," Alyssa extracted an exquisite box from her coat pocket and put it in his hand. "... this is Jonah's gift for you."
"Jonah's gift for me?" Jasper appeared shocked at the special treatment.
Cheeks reddening, she gently nodded. "Yeah. He gave it to me when you were in a coma. I decided to give it to you in person after you woke up."

The readers' comments on the novel: Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
I am trying to figure out why an author writes one page and it is suppose to be a chapter and then the author gets the audience hooked on the story and just drags it on. Follow the rules please, and at least give the 7 chapters daily. Two chapters every other day is a waste of time. Or just release the book and give us the option to buy it....
Ughhh…can we get more pleeeease! I’m so into this book and literally check daily for updates but it’s only two pages at most. Can you at least do 4 pages a night 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽...
More chapters please the 7 chapters/day would be nice, TY...
Where can i download the remaining chapters?...
Why are we literally only getting one chapter a day?!? I mean can we at least get 4 or something? Irritating🙄...
Hello, more chapters please. It has been over 1 week since we have received 7 chapters. Thank you...
Just wonder what happened to publish 7 chap/day...
