Tears welled up in Alyssa's eyes as she wrinkled her nose slightly and pushed her luck. "A friend? Lover? Ex-lover? Or… someone who's unable to move on?"
Jasper's eyes were as dark as the night sky. "I don't know."
Alyssa stared at the cold, emotionless man before her, overwhelmed with helplessness. No words could describe the disappointment she felt.
"You've seen me now. You may leave."
To her surprise, in the next second, Jasper shoved the door open without warning. As he had exerted too much force, Alyssa stumbled and let out a small gasp as she fell backward.
In an instant, Jasper lunged forward, wrapping a muscular arm around her waist and pulling her close. Their bodies pressed together, so close she could feel his warmth, their breaths mingling in the space between them.
Jasper could even see, with much clarity, those tiny pores on Alyssa's supple skin.
"L-Let go of me…" Alyssa's heart raced as she squirmed in his grip.
Jasper's grip on her waist was unrelenting, and each time she tried to wriggle free, it only seemed to heighten the flirtatious tension between them.
"You said you were exhausted. But you seem to have plenty of energy now."
His breathing deepened, and without another word, he scooped her up into a princess carry and strode into the hospital ward.
"You hurt your leg, so don't move around unless you intend to extend your stay here."
Alyssa welled up silently. She curled up meekly in his arms.

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...
Just wonder what happened to publish 7 chap/day...
