Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2066

Once the board meeting ended, the announcement about Mandy's and Julien's appointment was released to all Lovelace Group employees.

Julien exited the meeting room. The moment he entered the chairman's office, he plunged into Jonah's arms. He nuzzled his sweaty face against Jonah's shoulder.

He could finally feel at ease, knowing that he was finally back in his lover's presence. He also let go of the confident persona he was putting up and melted into Jonah's embrace.

"Congratulations, Mr. Julien. You've succeeded in taking over."

Jonah lifted his hand and stroked Julien's hair gently. In a gentle and raspy voice, he said, "You are someone with status and a title now. You are the second-in-command in the Lovelace family. I'll have to rely on your support in the future, Mr. Julien."

Julien clicked his tongue. "Forget it."

Julien let out a long sigh. He said in a coy voice, "If you hadn't bulk purchased Lovelace Group's shares in secret to stabilize our share price, our corporation would have simply ended up in the wrong hands. As the president, I don't even have as many shares as you do. I'm just an employee. It's nothing to be proud of."

"Don't say that, Julien." Jonah held him close and said to him lovingly, "I am yours. Those assets and shares… What about them?

"Plus, the shares that I acquired belong to your family in the first place. I am just returning them to their rightful owner. It's no big deal."

Julien's eyes welled up with tears. He was moved beyond words.

He lifted his head and felt Jonah's breath on his face. Jonah placed his palm on the back of his head and kissed his lips.

They managed to share the kiss for only a short moment before the office door opened, and an unsuspecting Mandy walked into the room.

"Oh! I didn't see anything, I didn't see anything. Carry on! Carry on!"

Mandy was embarrassed and had nowhere to hide. She covered her face and was about to leave when Jonah called out to her.

"No worries, Mandy. I'll go. I'm sure you have a lot to talk about with Julien."

"Don't go, Jonah." Julien clung to his hand, unwilling to let him go.

Jonah smiled tenderly. He lovingly stroked the tip of Julien's nose.

"I knew it. From the start, I guessed that you were the person Julien talked about. You were the one who supported us from behind the scenes. It could've been none other than you, Jonah."
