Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1373

The question from Tatiana caused the tension in the room to peak.

Alyssa widened her eyes slightly. Grievance churned within her.

Since childhood, Tatiana and Alyssa were always joined at the hip. Yet, they were having such an intense argument tonight.

"What do you mean by that, Taty? Are you saying that I am someone who only cares about the safety of my family? And that I am egoistic and can't be bothered about others?"

Jasper's heart was pounding. As the middle person, he was stuck in an awkward position. He gave Alyssa a light tug by the hem of her top.

"Taty wouldn't think of you like that, Lyse. Don't overthink it."

"I'm overthinking it? She should explain to me what she meant by that, then!" Alyssa plucked the corner of her top back from Jasper's grip.

Jasper shuddered. He pressed his lips together bitterly.

She could remain calm no matter how much the public swore at and ridiculed her. But now, it was obvious that she was furious.

Jasper knew that what Alyssa hated the most was being misunderstood by her loved ones. To her, this hurt more than any physical pain.

She had been under great stress for days. The mental exhaustion had finally made her snap at this very moment. She ended up releasing her anger at her most beloved sister.

"You haven't answered my question, Lyse."

Unexpectedly, Tatiana wasn't going to give up easily. She got up slowly and enunciated her question once again. "If I wasn't your sister, would you still stop me?"

"I will not answer you if your question is based on the assumption that I am a selfish person."

Alyssa tried her best to suppress her anger. She then said to Jasper in a low voice, "Go and arrange for a car to send Taty back, Jasper."

With a soft look in his eyes, Jasper continued, "When are you going to stop making me worry about you, hmm?"

"Forget about the two bottles of cold water. I wish I could get on a plane to the south and dive into the sea there!" Alyssa pouted angrily. She crossed her arms and leaned against Jasper's sturdy chest.

"You jump, I jump," Jasper replied as he looked down at her and gave her a kiss on her forehead.

Alyssa clicked her tongue. "Oh, stop it. I'm not in the mood for jokes now."

Alyssa turned to face him. She was just about to speak when she was met with a passionate kiss instead. Their tongues intertwined playfully.

She wrapped her arms around Jasper's neck. She was completely drawn in. Her frustration slowly dissipated.

Then, they pulled away from each other unwillingly. After all, they would have asphyxiated if they had continued.
