In Solana City, Tatiana stood alone outside the East Solana Police Bureau. She gritted her teeth and walked in.
"Are you here to make a report, miss?" asked a female officer.
Tatiana nodded vigorously. She asked softly, "May I know if Cyrus… I mean, Chief Cyrus is around?"
…
Cyrus had been busy for two days and two nights. He was sleeping soundly in the lounge room at the time.
The moment he found out that Tatiana was there to see him, he leaped to his feet and went out to meet her.
In the office, Tatiana and Cyrus sat facing each other. She interlocked her fingers and rubbed them together until her knuckles turned red.
Cyrus studied her carefully. He asked in a concerned voice, "You showed up unannounced. Did something happen, Taty?"
Tatiana was tender-hearted and timid. She had always been overshadowed by Alyssa ever since she was a child.
Despite being half-siblings, Cyrus was never biased. He always treated her the same as Alyssa. Each time he went on a work trip and came back with presents, he would give the same to both Alyssa and Tatiana.
As they grew older, they didn't get together as often. Plus, Tatiana was shyer and more introverted. Unlike Alyssa, she wouldn't initiate contact with her brothers. Thus, it might appear that they weren't close.
Even so, both Alyssa and Tatiana were his sisters. He paid equal attention to both of them.
After being silent for a moment, Tatiana looked up slowly. She looked into Cyrus' eyes and said, "Cyrus, as a victim myself, I want to come forward and testify that David assaulted me."
Cyrus widened his eyes. "What did you say, Taty?"
"I want to file charges against David for sexual assault." Tatiana's heart wrenched as she spoke.
Cyrus pursed his lips. He was a skillful criminal investigator.
He was a strong-minded professional investigator who was able to handle psychological stress. But when his family member became the victim of a crime, he couldn't be more cautious. That said, he did wish that he could get rid of the monster, David!
"Taty, did you tell Lyla that you were coming here? How about Lyse? Does she know?"
Tatiana shook her head. In a soft voice, she replied, "If I told them, do you think I would be able to come here, Cyrus? Truth be told, I went to see Lyse and Jasper last night. I shared my thoughts with them, and they were strongly against it."
Cyrus blinked. He said in a low voice, "They didn't allow you to do this because they were afraid that you'd be hurt. You are also my sister. I treat you exactly the same as the way they do. Do you think that I would agree to this?"
"I know that you will."
Tatiana's eyes glowed. Her eyes were full of determination and faith in him. She continued, "That's because you are a cop. You will be impartial, and you will not take sides.

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🙄...
