Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1277

Why didn't she tell him? Why? Jasper repeatedly tortured himself with the same questions ever since he learned the truth.

Had he known she was pregnant with his child and subsequently suffered a miscarriage, he might have acted differently.

"Jasper, please stop blaming yourself. You're not the only one at fault for failing to protect our baby. As the mother, I am at fault, too." She blinked and flashed a carefree smile at him, which only added to his heartache.

She continued, "Even if you made it back on time on that day, there was nothing much you could do about the car accident. I'm thankful that Grandpa was safe, or else I'd feel guilty about it for the rest of my life."

Tears brimmed in his eyes. Staring at her through tears, he felt his throat going dry. He croaked, "You had many opportunities to tell me about it afterward, but why did you keep it to yourself?"

Lowering her gaze, she retreated into the bathwater, appearing somewhat pitiable. "You were busy with work all the time. The frequent business travels made you exhausted and irritable. I didn't want to add to your burden and troubles."

"My troubles?"

"You did not love me back then." She curled up into a ball and tried her best to breathe and hide her emotions from him. "Impregnating a woman you don't love must be a huge trouble for you.

"As much as I hoped for your love, knowing that you're a pure and kind soul, I didn't want you to love me out of guilt. That's why I refused to add to your troubles."

He couldn't accept praise for being a kind soul when all he had done was inflict pain on her.
