Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1464

Before leaving, Maggie changed into the outfit she arrived in and attempted to return the luxurious evening gown to Alyssa. Alyssa, however, declined to accept and explained that it was a belated 18th birthday gift for Maggie.

Since Maggie had no good reason to return the gown, she carefully brought the gown home with tears of joy.

As a driver had been assigned to send Maggie home, Xavier sat in the front passenger seat awkwardly, not daring to speak a word lest someone mistook him as a pervert who kidnapped a teenage girl. He never wanted to get wrongly accused like the last time.

Throughout the trip, Maggie cautiously kept a distance from Xavier and looked out of the window with a light blush on her cheeks. She touched her cheeks; they burned.

Finally, they arrived at the lobby of her apartment. She had wanted Xavier to head back soon, but he insisted on sending her to the door because he was worried about her safety.

At the door, she hesitated before whispering, "Xavier, I need to get something from my room. Wait for me."

"Sure. Take your time. I'll wait for you, no matter how long it takes," Xavier answered a little too eagerly and urgently.

When in college, he was the student union's president. Upon graduation, he worked hard alongside Jasper and was appointed the head secretary of the company president, which came with a million-dollar annual paycheck.

However, he was awkward and clumsy in front of the woman he loved.

Soon, she reappeared with a pink bag in her hand. She tiptoed to him and gently closed the door behind her as she didn't want to wake Gina up.

She explained, "This is the bag you requested me to make. Sorry for the delay; too many things have been going on lately."

She embarrassedly handed the bag to him with both hands. "I made some improvements. Hope your sister likes it."

"Yes, she will like it a lot. Thank you, Ms. Madison!" Xavier accepted the bag with trembling hands. When their hands accidentally brushed, their hearts skipped a beat.

"Ms. Madison, I… I really like you. May I pursue you?" Riding the influence of the alcohol, he gathered his courage and gave it a shot.

Hearing that, she stumbled backward in a panic. "I… No, I can't! I've not graduated yet. I don't want a relationship now. I need to focus on my studies."

"I'll wait for you until you graduate. I'll wait even if you prefer to date after college." Xavier's voice cracked, and his eyes filled with a desperate eagerness.

Blushing, she shook her head furiously. "B-But I'm not an adult yet!"

"Didn't your 18th birthday just pass?"
