Jasper's hand was on Alyssa's waist. He pulled her in closer to him slowly. The corner of his lips curved upward as he gave her a helpless look.
Alyssa consistently brimmed with captivating ideas, and her perpetual desire ensured there would never be a dull moment in her company.
"Lyse, I know you are just trying to comfort me."
Even though Alyssa wasn't fussed, Tatiana couldn't help but feel an immense guilt weighing on her. Her eyes turned red as she said, "You wouldn't have been dragged into this if it wasn't because of me.
"You wouldn't otherwise have become the Schmidt family's target for revenge. It's all my fault. I was too weak and stupid. That's how it came to this."
Upon saying that, Tatiana's tears started flowing. Her teardrops dripped onto the back of her hand. This tugged at their heartstrings.
Alyssa gave Jasper a look. He was taken aback. He then quickly leaned forward toward the tea table. He pulled two pieces of tissue from the tissue box and handed them to Alyssa.
Alyssa was speechless.
She wasn't the one crying. Why did he hand the tissues to her? He could've just given them to Tatiana directly.
Alyssa wiped Tatiana's tears away for her. After a moment of hesitation, she sighed heavily, "Actually, Taty, I should be the one who should apologize. I wasn't able to seek justice or get revenge on your behalf. David still ended up being released."
Alyssa spoke the last few words in a hoarse voice. It was obvious that she was choking on her tears. Her long eyelashes fluttered.
With Tatiana around, Jasper could only force himself to suppress his emotions. Yet, his blood boiled momentarily.
He gave off an air of frigidity all around him. His burning hatred was fully exhibited by his tensed-up muscles. The veins on the back of his hand bulged.
Tatiana stared at Alyssa. She shook her head continuously and said, "You've done enough, Lyse. You really have. Let's just put an end to the matter here! I don't wish to continue anymore."
"Put an end to it here? Why so?"
Alyssa was so abhorred that she tightened her fists. "David took advantage of you and beat Sean into a pulp. He's also caused harm to so many other women. They had to live with the trauma of being humiliated. They daren't speak up despite their indignation.
"The Schmidt Group uses their power to oppress them, making them fearful of payback. In order to ensure the safety of themselves and their families, they could only suffer in silence. I am their only hope now. Who else, other than myself, would shield and help them?

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🙄...
