Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1473

"It's fine. Dad is at the meeting," Jonah replied while quietly casting a loving gaze at Alyssa. "I came over because I was worried about Lyse and wanted to lend a hand if any emergency arises."

"Woah, Jonah, you're doting on her like she's your daughter," Cyrus complimented Jonah earnestly as he stared conflictedly at Alyssa and Jasper. "But we're not going to have many opportunities to stay by her side. Now that she has her protector, she will not need us as much."

"Such is life. Ever since her 18th birthday, I braced for the day she no longer needs me." Jonah was flooded with memories of Alyssa's smiling face. Despite the bitterness, he only had blessings for Alyssa instead of envy. "Isn't it nice that we can entrust her to Jasper? It's also about time we 'retire' from her life."

The murmurs ceased after the plaintiff, the attorneys, and the prosecutor filed into the court. Sean and Simon took their seats on both sides, the tension between them palpable.

"Sean, good luck!" Tatiana whispered as she stared keenly at Sean's dashing and spirited figure.

Sitting upright, she felt her nerves tingling.

Silas, dressed in his uniform, marched to his seat. His sharp brows exuded an air of authority, adding to the pressure in the room.

"Ah! Do you guys feel the same?" Colene swooned at Silas. "Doesn't he look super handsome in court? If all the public prosecutors look like Silas, I'll willingly get into trouble once in a while just to go to court!"
