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."

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🙄...
