Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1321

"Oh, I see. I thought it was someone else." Winston didn't take Angelina's words seriously at all. He looked toward Cyrus as if he was about to entrust him with an important task.

"You say that Landon will be asking for Lauren's hand in marriage. That means that he has yet to propose officially. Just because a goalkeeper is standing at the goalpost doesn't mean scoring is impossible. You still have a chance, Cyrus."

Cyrus held his head in his hands. He was frustrated. He really wished that he could dig a hole for himself and hide in it right now.

Just as Winston finished speaking, they heard the sound of quick and urgent footsteps approaching.

"Winston! Why did you bring a whole troop of your people to our yard? What are you trying to do? Take the house down?" Alyssa had one hand on her hips. She glared at Winston angrily.

Her emotional and mental state had settled down at this point in time, thanks to the power of love. She was no longer going to resist or fear facing off against Winston.

Winston was an arrogant man. But it didn't matter if he used the power of the entire KS Group to repress them.

…

After their steamy night last night, Alyssa turned around and pressed her fair-skinned and warm body against Jasper's. She tapped his moist, thin lips and asked in a gentle voice, "What's on your mind, Jasper?"

Jasper bit down gently on her finger. He stroked her delicate back, which was wet with sweat. "I was thinking what our next hurdle might be."

"Why are you thinking about that for no good reason?"

Alyssa turned and rested her head on his chest. "There is no problem that cannot be solved. There is nothing that we cannot overcome as long as we go through it hand in hand. Hey, you've already chickened out once. You're not going to be a cowardly jerk again, are you?"

Jasper had a frown on his face. He gave her a loving tug on her waist. "I wasn't chickening out, Lyse. I was just…"

Alyssa giggled. "I know. I was just pulling your leg."
