Even though Axel barely showed any emotion on his face, Amber knew he was on the verge of breaking down. One word from her—a futile attempt at comfort—and his carefully held emotions would explode.
"Jonah… Jasper…"
The moment Axel laid eyes on his family, his body trembled. His strong, unyielding façade crumbled as tears finally broke free.
"Don't cry, Axel."
Jonah went up and embraced Axel. He patted his back lightly. "Crying wouldn't solve any of our problems. The most important thing now is to rescue Lyse."
"It was all my fault… It was all my fucking fault!" Axel gave himself a hard slap. "I was the one who neglected Lyse… I was the one who lost her. I deserve to die."
"Axel, it had nothing to do with you." Jasper walked over slowly, his footsteps heavy, eyes bloodshot and sunken. "I'm the one to blame.
"I'm Lyse's partner, and I've sworn to all of you that I'd protect her… Yet, I've messed everything up. I'm sorry."
He had messed it all up. He'd spoken similar ones before—after Alyssa lost their child—but now, the pain was unbearable, tearing him apart from the inside.
"Lyse?" Miley cried out when she saw Amber, who looked very much like Alyssa. She ran up to her and held her in a tight embrace.
"Miley, this isn't Lyse. She's Axel's girlfriend."
Jeremy studied Amber's face in shock. He was also caught in a daze momentarily. Even so, he put his arm over Miley's shoulders and comforted her in a gentle voice, "We can handle it here. You're exhausted. Why don't you go upstairs for a nap?"

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...
