Alyssa's eyes welled up, turning red. She felt as if her insides were being crushed into smithereens.
After a while, she replied in a shaky voice, "You're actually right, Jameson. I have been thinking about you every second of the day. I'm thinking about how you're going to die."
Jameson laughed. "You're so adorable, Lyse."
Jameson's voice overflowed with affection. If they weren't on the phone, he'd wish he could let everything go and give her a kiss. "Even if you despise the person I am, I am still deeply in love with you. So deeply in love that I can't escape it."
"Would a sinister and cold-blooded person like you even know what love is?"
Alyssa's glare was sharp, a feeling of disgust surging within her. She enunciated, "Don't you taint such a holy feeling. You don't even deserve to mention anything about love!"
"I know how to love, Lyse. I will never feel like I've made any mistakes, even till I die." Jameson's croaky voice contained the pain that he had been holding back. "My love for you is the purest and most sincere of all in this world. From beginning till the end, you are the only one I love and the only one I want."
Alyssa closed her eyes tightly and took a deep breath. She almost threw up.
"Since the beginning, you weren't the one Jasper loved. He loved another woman. You sacrificed three years of your youth to marry him. You gave him all you had and cared attentively for him, but he had always cared for another woman. He gave her all his affection and even chased you, his so-called 'wife,' away.
"You returned to the Taylors with your heart all battered and bruised. You put your talents to good use time and time again and restore your identity as Alyssa Taylor. For him, he only developed feelings for you after he witnessed these.
"What would've happened if you were still that obedient, quiet, and timid woman that stayed by his side? Would he have set his eyes on you? Would he have fallen in love with you? Not at all.
"How is this different from being fickle-minded, just desiring something he had lost?"
Alyssa's lashes fluttered. She forced herself to remain calm. Yet, these ill-intentioned words felt like a sharp blade, cutting at her heart slowly but deeply.
"As for me, I've known you since I was ten. I have never loved any other woman from then till now. I have only loved you and you alone, Lyse."
Jameson's husky and passionate voice reached Alyssa's ear. She could almost hear his hysteria over being unable to get what he wanted. "For your sake, I can be a madman and take the fall. I can destroy the entire world for you.
"My life has been filled with darkness. You are the only one who came into my heart, the only one who's alive, and the one I've always longed for.
"Jasper's love is shallow, casual, and belated… How is that cheap love of his comparable to mine? How is he qualified to love you?"
"Jameson, at this point, are you still trying to use such a lowly tactic to sow discord between Jasper and me? Just save it."
A bright smile crossed Alyssa's face, and a fervent feeling of love dispersed all haziness around her. "Indeed, Jasper has had feelings for someone else, and he's hurt me before. Even so, I still want to love him and be with him.
"You, on the other hand, do all you can to take advantage of others and spew nonsense endlessly. You're like a rat from the sewers to me."
Eventually, she completely disregarded his fervent heart. She mocked cruelly, "Jameson, don't you think you're living such a pathetic life?"
Jameson fell into a suffocating silence. After a moment, he spoke gently, "Since this is the case, let me see you one last time, Lyse. Will you?"

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...
