Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2165

Jasper widened his eyes.

Truthfully, from the moment Alyssa entered the room, he had noticed that something was bothering her.

Hearing her question at this moment alarmed him. He wrapped his muscular arms around her waist as he puffed his chest out. He stroked her waist gently and asked, "What happened, Lyse? What's with that question out of the blue?"

"Jasper, I-I…" A troubled look filled Alyssa's face.

"It's alright if you don't want to tell me about it. We're lovers, partners, but you don't have to force yourself."

Jasper seemed to have a realization. He pulled her in even tighter and rested his chin on her shoulder. He nuzzled her longingly. "My dear Lyse, you'll always have the highest degree of freedom and liberty.

"Even though we're lovers and partners, you still have the right to keep secrets. I will not interfere or cross the line."

Such consideration from Jasper made Alyssa well up with tears. She buried her face in his chest and started sobbing.

Distrust gnawed at her, making it hard to confide in others. But he was her unwavering anchor. If she couldn't even tell Jasper her innermost thoughts and feelings, she would become extremely frustrated from having to keep it all in. She might even get to the point of wanting to seek death.

"Lyse, don't cry…" Jasper gently consoled her. His voice had turned hoarse with worry.

He didn't know what to do except to pat her on her back. At the same time, he didn't dare to probe.

"Jasper, I came across a document with a red heading in Jeremy's study by accident… It mentioned a female special agent named Felicity Whitaker. She has been at large for over 30 years. No matter her age or her experiences, they all reminded me of my mother."

Alyssa buried her tear-filled face in Jasper's chest. His white shirt was moist, along with his heart. "I'm afraid… I'm afraid that the woman named Felicity is my mother."

Jasper's eyes widened. His hands on her waist tensed up slightly.
