Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1628

Jonah's steely figure was something Julien could recognize even from miles away.

Julien's heart raced. He grabbed onto the railing tightly. He kept leaning his body forward to get a better view. He wished that he could just jump down at this moment.

Jonah's posture was one of a kind. He was absolutely drawn to him. It couldn't have been anyone else other than Jonah!

"Jonah… Jonah! Jonah!" Julien yelled.

Unfortunately, the distance between them was too great.

Coincidentally, a strong wind started to blow.

Julien was already heavily injured. It was already difficult for him to breathe in the first place. His weak voice was simply lost in the wind. Jonah couldn't have heard him at all.

"Jonah! Can't you hear me? Turn around… Turn around! I'm right behind you…"

His voice became hoarse as he yelled. He could barely be heard toward the end.

Julien watched as Jonah got into his black-colored sports car. In the blink of an eye, Jonah's car zoomed away and disappeared into the night.

"What a jerk! Couldn't you have just waited a little longer for me?"

Julien looked as if his soul had left his body. He plopped himself on the floor angrily. He burst out in tears.

"Jonah, why didn't you wait for me? I wanna leave with you…"

…

It was deep into the night.

In the study, Joseph was on the phone with Edgar. He updated him about Julien's current situation.

Edgar was clearly unhappy to find out that Joseph had given Julien corporal punishment. Although he didn't give Joseph a roasting, it was obvious that he sounded upset.

Joseph's expression froze. "Dad, what is there for me to be resentful about? Even if that were so, it's because my kids have grown up. They have spread their wings and are ready to fly. They're not willing to be disciplined anymore. I'm just afraid that they'd cause trouble for the Lovelace Group."

"No matter how much I despise Winston, my precious daughter still ended up choosing him. They also ended up having children together. Their children are successful people.

"Also, she has been with the Taylor family for over 20 years. All this while, I have never heard anything about her not getting along with Winston. Thus, I know that Winston has been treating her very well."

"Dad…

"I know that you've always fancied Mandy."

Edgar's words pierced the deepest part of Joseph's heart, which he had kept hidden.

He pursed his lips. He clenched his fists by his side.

"You are my adopted son. You are not biologically related to Mandy. But ethically, she will always be your sister. Whether in the past or in the current times, things would be impossible between the both of you."
