As subtle as Remy's expressions were, Jasper still noticed them. A slight twinkle flashed across his eyes.
He did not have the time to continue entertaining Remy. He clenched his teeth, turned around, and started running toward Crater Mountain.
Nevertheless, he had barely taken a few steps when gunshots were fired at his feet. Even so, Jasper kept his eyes fixed ahead and did not stop.
Just then, another gunshot rang out.
It wasn't until a bullet hit him in his right shoulder that the pain caused him to stumble. He almost fell to the ground but forced himself to stay on his feet.
It was fortunate that he was shot in his right shoulder this time.
After all, his left shoulder could not be injured any further. Otherwise, his left shoulder would be left in complete disability.
"If you take another step, the next shot will be in your left leg," Remy warned mockingly. Yet, his gaze was firm and fiery. "Jasper, I don't suppose you want to end up like your older brother, living in a wheelchair for the rest of your life, do you?"
"If you want to shoot me… just go ahead."
Heaving, Jasper pressed his hand against the wound on his right shoulder and continued advancing. "As long as I've still got breath in my lungs, I have to meet with Alyssa. There's a massive snowstorm tonight… but she's gone hiking alone. She will be in danger!"
Remy stood stiffly at the same spot as he watched Jasper's determined and upright figure from behind.
He no longer had a firm grip over the gun in his hand.
"Remy, if you want to come against me or to take my life, we can have a face-off in the future. I will certainly not shy away from it. But, right now, let me go to her."
Jasper's eyes welled up with tears as he pleaded; a lump rose in his throat. "Please, I beg you."
A moment later, he realized that the person behind him was remaining silent. As such, he picked up his pace.
Suddenly, Remy called out to him. "Jasper."
Jasper knitted his brows together tightly and turned around. The snowy winds billowed as their eyes met.
Remy swung his arm and hurled a black object toward Jasper.
Jasper lifted his left hand and caught the object in his hand. He opened his palm and was stunned.
He couldn't believe that he had Remy's car keys in his hand.
"You are indeed mad. You are quite a lunatic," Remy scoffed.

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🙄...
