Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1164

True love had nothing to do with a wife's culinary skills. A man who truly loved a woman would still find her attractive at her worst.

Alyssa was too focused on cooking and did not notice Jasper creeping up to her.

She gasped when he pulled her into a hug, his masculine scent enveloping her senses.

He grumbled, "Why are you moving around when I'm not at home? You're injured and need rest." He tightened his grip on her waist with desire, but she kept quiet about the discomfort.

Instead, she placed her right hand on the back of his hand and patted it. She allowed him to hug her for as long as he wished. His heavy breath on her neck sent electric shivers through her.

Suddenly detecting a faint tobacco scent, she questioned, "Did you smoke?"

"Sorry, Lyse. I couldn't resist," he rasped, resting his chin on her shoulder. Rubbing his chin against her skin, he vowed, "I won't do it again."

"Anything troubling you?" she wondered, feeling worried when she sensed his low mood.

"Nothing."

"Did Javier give you trouble at work?" she mused wittily, as observant as ever.

Smiling bitterly, he teased her, "I'll need to perform a body scan. Did you put a hidden camera somewhere on me?"
