Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1999

Jonah continued, "After his identity was exposed, Khaos abandoned him, and Cloudtop hunted him down. Traitors always meet the same fate—death."

"So... back then, you executed him as Judas?" Alyssa's voice trembled as a chill ran through her body.

Jonah closed his eyes and shook his head in pain.

"When I became the leader, I swore that I would never kill. It was my bottom line. But back then... everyone was pressuring me and forcing me to execute him myself."

Listening to this, Alyssa felt suffocated. Her heart pounded in fear.

"He didn't want to put me in a difficult position, so he grabbed the gun from my hand and shot himself."

Jonah's tone was calm and low as he recounted the event again. If it weren't for the crimson in his eyes, Alyssa would have thought he was telling someone else's story.

Would anyone in the world be able to bear such a devastating blow as watching their beloved take their own life before their eyes?

If Jasper had done that, Alyssa might have picked up the gun without hesitation and followed him into the afterlife.

"Enough about that. It's all in the past now. It's all in the past..." Jonah murmured as if trying to heal his bloody wound with those words.

"Jonah, I'm sorry about the person's death, but I have to ask you."

Alyssa looked at him intently and continued word by word, "Did you choose to be with Jul because he looks like that person?"

While clenching the photo in his hand, Jonah bowed his head and grazed his teeth with his tongue.

"From the moment you saw Jul, you were attracted to him because he resembled that person. When you approached him and showed him kindness, it wasn't just to help me win him over, was it?

"You wanted to see him and couldn't resist being near him. He simply reminded you of that person, didn't he?"
