"I won't call you that next time if you don't like me doing so. But I was really just worried about you and hoping that you would be able to regain consciousness as soon as possible."
Alyssa smiled coldly at him. She was broad-minded and had never been bothered by these trivial matters.
"Justin, what brings you here?" Alyssa's entire body hurt. She tried to get up but failed to do so.
"Don't move." Justin held her down. In a low voice, he urged, "The doctor said that you were very lucky. Even though you didn't have any broken bones, you have quite a number of external injuries. Plus, you might have suffered some level of concussion.
"These are not to be overlooked. You have to stay in the hospital to recuperate and be under observation for a while."
With a sharp gaze, Alyssa insisted, "You haven't answered my question."
Justin pressed his lips together slightly. He answered calmly, "My private physician, Ms. Gillis, lives in a villa nearby. When I came to visit her, I suddenly felt unwell, so she sent me to the hospital for treatment. I happened to see you being brought into the emergency room."
He happened to see her? Alyssa's heart sank. She might have believed it if someone else said that. However, Justin's words couldn't be trusted.
"How long have I been unconscious for?"
"Not too long. Just one day and one night."
Justin leaned forward, closing the distance between him and her. In a tender tone of voice, he added, "I don't have your family members' phone number, but I informed Grandpa.
"He, in turn, informed Mr. Winston about your traffic accident. Don't be afraid. Your family members are already making their way here."
A look of astonishment came across Alyssa's face. She struggled to get up, but was held down by him once again.
She exclaimed, "I'm fine… I can already be discharged!"
"I know that you're afraid of having your family worry about you, especially your father."
With a concerned look on his face and an infinitely deep gaze, Justin continued, "But Ms. Alyssa, at the end of the day, you are a woman. Your family will be so worried about you going around out there all on your own.
"Don't worry. I only contacted Grandpa to have him inform Mr. Winston now that we know you're not seriously hurt."
"Justin, these are my personal matters. You're crossing the line!" Alyssa gritted out. It was obvious that she was getting emotional.
She forced her trembling body to roll out of the bed with all her might. Unexpectedly, she couldn't exert any energy with her legs at all. She lost control and tumbled to the ground.
"Watch out!" Justin's deep, raspy voice, laced with concern and urgency, echoed in Alyssa's ear.

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🙄...
