With a soft click, Remy opened a hidden compartment in the necklace. In it was a black-colored pill.
He took it out, put it in his mouth, and swallowed it.
Alyssa's voice in his head gradually faded away.
For over a year, he hadn't needed any medication to ease his headaches. He thought he'd never have to take it again.

Meanwhile, Jameson clutched a medical report in his study room. His handsome face was ashen, his sharp eyes bloodshot.
"Mr. Schmidt, your current health isn't looking good," his private physician hesitated, standing by his side. "The medical facilities on this island are limited. They might not be enough if your condition suddenly worsens. I suggest you go to a proper hospital soon, within this month. Treatment there might help ease your condition."
Jameson's pale, chapped lips uttered, "Can vigorous treatment cure me?"
The doctor looked down, hesitating.
"My disease is incurable, and I don't have long to live, do I?" Jameson forced a smile. A mix of emptiness and the fear of death formed an invisible net around him, trapping him in despair.
"Don't be so pessimistic. If you were to be subject to vigorous treatment—"
"Just tell me—how much longer do I have?"
The doctor choked, "At most… half a year."
Jameson closed his eyes and guffawed.

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...
