Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1958

Alyssa jolted, and her gaze met Jasper's dark gaze. Her heart thumped heavily against her chest.

Right now, Jasper's classy suit was stretched tightly against his muscles. Even if he didn't take off his clothes, she could visualize it.

"Jasper." Justin coughed, his face pale. Unexpectedly, he was the one who spoke up and tried to explain on Alyssa's behalf, as if they were hiding something from him.

"Nothing happened just now. I just met Ms. Alyssa at the entrance of the hospital. I wasn't feeling well so… I asked her to push me upstairs."

"Justin, did I even ask?"

Jasper smiled lightly, although it turned into a slight grimace. Nevertheless, he still tried. "You're my brother, and Lyse is your sister-in-law. We're a family. She's helping you as a sister would."

As he spoke, he strode to stand beside Alyssa. His gaze was gentle as he took over the wheelchair handles. "Let me do it."

"Sorry for the inconvenience, Jasper." Justin smiled as well while his gaze darkened.

Jasper bent down and whispered in Justin's ear, holding back his rippling emotions. "You are my brother; it's just my duty."

…

Outside the patient's room, Javier anxiously discussed Lauren's condition with the main physician.

"Dad!" Justin called out worriedly. He was wheelchair-bound, but he desperately wished that he could walk for himself.

"Justin! Your body still needs rest, so why are you here?" Seeing Justin's sickly face, Javier worried for him.

"I'm worried about Lauren, so I came to check on her condition. Coincidentally, I met Jasper and Ms. Alyssa downstairs, so we came up together."

Justin asked grimly, "Dad, how is Lauren?"

Alyssa was also pale with anxiety; Jasper gripped her cold hands tightly.

"Landon is inside, keeping her company. It's a good thing that Landon is here, or else…"

Javier sighed and lowered his head, feeling a weight in his heart. "But we can't go on like this. Lauren was already depressed in the first place, and now she's experienced such a traumatic event. I'm worried that her mental state will crumble!"

Jasper's heart twinged in pain. After thinking for a while, he said hesitantly, "If we really have no choice, we can only use modified electroconvulsive therapy."
