It was already past midnight when they arranged everything.
For the sake of Maggie's safety, Alyssa had intended for Maggie to live in her own house starting today until the case against David Schmidt ended. For one, Maggie could be protected. Secondly, Alyssa genuinely adored this unfortunate yet strong, young girl.
But Maggie insisted on going back home because of her mother's heart condition. She was worried her mother might get a heart attack if she woke up from her sleep and did not see Maggie anywhere, not to mention what might happen if her mother knew that Maggie had come to speak to them.
It was a good thing Maggie's mother hadn't contacted her that night. She must still be sleeping. It was as if the heavens itself supported this strong, young girl's decision, too.
Xavier escorted Maggie to the car, treating her with utmost care throughout the process as if he had turned a new leaf.
Jasper walked out of the villa with Alyssa in his arms. He wiped away her tears and wrapped his hand around her neck before kissing her on the forehead.
"It's late, Lyse. You've already yawned countless times, and your eyes can barely keep themselves open. Xavier and I will send Ms. Madison home. Be good and wait for me to come back home."
"You know exactly why I'm yawning so much." Alyssa pouted. "You exhausted me in the process of rejuvenating yourself. I can't simply rest when I have the ability to fuel you with energy."
Confidence surged in Jasper's chest. Alyssa's exhaustion was her body's way of telling him how satisfied with him she was.
Jasper's skills in bed had improved greatly since that time in the kitchen. He knew just the right buttons to press.
Jasper couldn't help it even now. He kissed Alyssa on the lips before prying them open with his tongue to deepen their kiss.
It made Alyssa's heart flutter. Her breath seemed to be taken away.
Maggie squealed excitedly in the car as she watched her favorite "ship" in the world kissing one another fervently. The sound even made Xavier leap up in the front passenger seat.
"Oh gosh… Can I take a picture of them to keep as a memento? I love their relationship so much!" Maggie exclaimed.
"Huh?" Xavier turned around to gaze at Maggie, his jaw wide open in shock. Countless ways of rejecting her request were already pooling in his mind.
But Xavier still caved in in the end. He sighed and said, "Okay, but don't share it on social media or with anyone else."
"I won't! It'll be for my own eyes!" Maggie shot Xavier a grateful look, her eyes wide. "You have such a kind heart, sir. Thank you so much!"
"Dammit…" Xavier clasped the back of his hand, feeling his blood pressure rise by the second.
…
In the end, Jasper went along with Xavier to drop Maggie back home, leaving Alyssa back at the villa. They didn't want Alyssa's upset mood to further stress Maggie out.
Though Jasper and Maggie sat in the backseat during the ride, the distance between them was still pretty wide.
Jasper realized Maggie's mood had lightened up a lot. She kept on staring at her phone and giggling quietly. Jasper also noticed how Xavier kept looking at Maggie through the rearview mirror.
A peculiar feeling suddenly surfaced within 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🙄...
