Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1461

Rose was greatly moved by Silas' promise to take responsibility for her. Still, she steeled her heart, shoved him, and left his embrace.

She brushed it off, "Don't worry about that. I'm not a fussy woman. That's not my first kiss anyway. You don't have to take responsibility for me like a strait-laced man."

Then, she tossed her smooth hair and waved in a carefree manner. "Mr. Taylor, you're handsome, but I prefer a rebel over a symbol of justice."

A rebel? Would she prefer the likes of the devilish Axel or even Landon Harper?

Landon was taken, but Axel was available. Besides, tonight's event saw the gentlemen and ladies mingling freely like a blind dating occasion. Even he was momentarily tempted by the choices around him.

Could she have developed an interest in Axel?

Feeling oddly threatened, he blurted out, "How about trying out different stuff?"

Rose, who had maintained her calm, turned her lips downward. She nearly lost her composure when she heard the suggestion.

"I don't mind. I like my romance new and thrilling," Rose replied with a tantalizing smile like a vixen. "But Mr. Taylor, are you sure you can handle a celibate who might have a change of heart at any time?"

…

Rose had a brief and hasty exchange with Alyssa before she excused herself, citing work matters at the studio. Rose's assistant picked her up soon after.

Alyssa, worried about Rose and curious about what ensued between her and Silas, confronted Silas. She found him with a long face on the living room couch, sipping on the tea that Mrs. Rosie had served him.

"What's wrong? Did you bully Rose or something?" Alyssa accused him, choosing to side with her best friend in the first place.
