Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1368

Alyssa looked up into his eyes which burned with passion. She understood him well even without exchanging words.

Alyssa, Jasper, and Xavier went to the top floor past a narrow corridor and stood in front of the door of the innermost unit. Before they could knock, an old woman with a walking stick slowly made her way down the stairs.

Upon seeing the trio in black suits, the old woman appeared triggered and started trembling. Tapping her stick hard on the ground, she hissed, "H-How dare you show up at the Madisons' again?

"Do you think you can easily bully the poor single mother and her daughter, thinking they don't have anyone to stand up for them? They said they would retract the lawsuit, so what more do you want? Do you want them dead?"

Alyssa and Jasper exchanged glances, knowing that the Schmidts must have shown up to threaten and harass the Madison family. They could imagine the snicker on the faces of those bullies from the Schmidt family.

"No… Ma'am, please calm down. We're not the same as them! We're here to help," Xavier explained while approaching the old woman, but she immediately waved her stick at him without bothering to listen.

"Get lost! I've lived long enough, and I'm not afraid of your threats! I'll fight you!" bellowed the old woman. "I watched Maggie grow up. What a nice and kind girl she is. She's like a granddaughter to me, and I will not let any one of you bully her. Get lost now!"

She waved her stick again, and from the looks of it, she seemed ready for a showdown.

Xavier did not manage to dodge the attack in time. He was hit on the arm and grimaced in pain. When the old woman waved her stick for the second time, Jasper hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her stick to stop her.

"Jasper! Don't hurt her!" Alyssa worriedly warned him.

Her heart was drumming wildly.
