After a few rings, the call connected.
"Jasper, I'm really surprised and pleased that you'd call me." Justin's voice was as gentle and warm as ever but with a hint of weakness.
"Justin, how are you doing?"
Jasper, who was typically straightforward, wanted to get straight to the point. But since he needed something from Justin, he had to start with some small talk.
"The same as usual, hanging on to life with medication every day. It's causing me to lose my hair," Justin joked. "Jasper, do you think I'll turn bald next time we meet?"
"I'm in Mosgravia right now," Jasper said seriously, no longer in the mood for jokes.
"Oh? Really? When did you arrive?"
"The night before last."
Jasper took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Justin, I have something urgent to discuss with you. Can we meet?"
…
That evening, Jasper and Xavier went to the address provided by Justin together.
Along the way, Jasper's jaw remained tense.
He and Justin were blood-related brothers and got along well in their youth. Even though they were not born of the same mother, Justin had taken care of him a lot as an older brother.
However, Jasper hadn't seen Justin for over a decade. Apart from occasional holiday greetings, they had little contact, so Justin wasn't particularly close to him anymore. What he felt more for him was respect.
"Mr. Beckett, we're here."
Jasper snapped out of his thoughts and raised his head slowly.
In front of them stood an impressive Wictorian mansion, exuding an atmosphere of seclusion and tranquility.
"Wow... It's so grand. It's not inferior to Madam's Heightsnew Villa," Xavier exclaimed in amazement.
He couldn't help but marvel. "It looks like Mr. Justin has been doing quite well overseas. This mansion probably costs billions in Mosgravia!"
"Nonsense." Jasper pursed his lips. His childish competitiveness rose again. "It's nowhere near as good as Lyse's home."
Xavier felt that he had said the wrong thing and awkwardly scratched his head.
Jasper adored Alyssa so much, to the point that he would treasure every strand of her hair. In his eyes, everything about Alyssa was the best.
Xavier got out of the car first and respectfully opened the door for 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🙄...
Hello, more chapters please. It has been over 1 week since we have received 7 chapters. Thank you...
