Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2255

Sheryl took a deep breath. Maintaining that same gentle posture of hers, she said, "Dr. Lovelace, you're mistaken. I was just helping Mr. Jasper with his tie. I'm afraid you're being overly sensitive and making a mountain out of a molehill."

"He can do it himself. Or, if not, he has Mr. Hall. Why would it even concern you?"

Human attraction was fascinating. Julien's initial impression of Sheryl was unfavorable—he found her insincere. Furthermore, he had heard from Jonah about the Beckett family dynamics. Justin and Jasper, born of different mothers, had a strained relationship. Given Sheryl's allegiance to Justin, Julien became increasingly wary of her.

"Dr. Lovelace, I've set things straight with Ms. Alyssa."

Jasper pursed his lips so tightly that they turned pale. In a deep voice, he clarified, "We have gone our separate ways."

A shocked expression came across Julien's face. He stumbled a step backward. "What did you say?"

Stepping aside with a seemingly calm look, Sheryl lifted the corners of her lips very subtly.

"We've gone our separate ways," Jasper repeated in an even colder tone.

"What the heck… You bastard!"

Julien charged forward and grabbed Jasper by his collar. The knuckles on his hands turned white. "Lyse wasted her youth, lost a child, and sacrificed so much for your sake.

"Her heart is shattered, and her body has crumbled from all that stress. She threw up blood just an hour ago and was sent into the ICU. She's still unconscious as we speak!

"Even if you don't love her, don't you feel any sense of responsibility? How could you say that you no longer want her? What the hell is wrong with you?"

He had been trying his best to trivialize this matter these few days so as not to make Alyssa sad or remind her of her sorrow.

He knew that the people around them were anxious, terrified, and worried. These worrisome emotions would only amplify her suffering and, consequently, make him feel even more terrible.

Despite everything, anyone who had witnessed the growth of their relationship could understand the pain of losing a loved one.

How could they accept it? They used to be so passionately in love. Right now, Jasper was saying that he no longer loved her. How could anyone take that?
