Chapter 183
Shock rage, and disappointment flooded Jasper’s chest. She had lied to him all this time!
The birthday celebration continued into the night, laughter and chatter filling the venue. Halfway through, Alyssa decided to go to the washroom to powder us.
As she went to the washroom, she recalled all the schemes and tricks Liana and Sophia had tried to use against her. It was all so childish, che realized, scoffing at the thought. How foolish.
She had already guessed how they planned to take her down, which was unfortunate for them. Of all the things those women should have considered when plotting against her, they failed to include the most important factor of them all–Newton’s fatherly affection for her.
Love and affection were something their schemes could never break through.
It would have been inappropriate if they had only given Newton the chair, as it undoubtedly belonged to Jonah and “his family.” That was why she presented the carving she had long prepared to Newton.
Alyssa had mastered such craftsmanship only because she had grown up watching Uncle Don do stone carving. In that sense, Herman Fowler could be said to be her grandmaster.
The hallways in the building were long and complex. Alyssa quickly lost her way.
Just then, a plump, furry kitten ran across the corridor in front of her.
“Hey, Kitty! Where are you going?” Alyssa cried excitedly, then chased after the cat.
She was about to catch up with the furball when her heels slipped on the cobblestoned floor. Unable to stabilize herself, she was tossed forward, about to fall off a stairwell.
“Ahh!” She shrieked and closed her eyes.
Just then, a pair of strong arms wrapped around her, pulling her back to safety. Whoever it was had a steady figure, instantly making her feel safe and at ease. Her back soon came into contact with this familiar person.
“Meow.” The cat from earlier mewed at them from above a decoration. It swiftly disappeared.

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...
