Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2348

At that moment, a sharp, metallic taste of blood surged up Jasper's throat, choking him so violently that he struggled to breathe.

Winston and Silas stared at them, mouths agape. Chills went down their spines.

Silas could feel Winston's arm stiffening up and his palms turning cold.

Alyssa, the darling of their family, was everything to Winston. Yet, even though bonded to Jasper, she had been repeatedly hurt—physically and emotionally.

Jasper loved Alyssa with all his heart. He'd humbled himself, giving his all for her and Winston's sakes.

Even so, could Winston forgive him and let it go when his most beloved daughter fell into danger once again, almost losing her life?

To make matters worse, the current Jasper had lost his ability to feel emotions due to his brain injury. He no longer loved Alyssa, and this had since been a thorn in Winston's flesh.

Justin's gaze remained fixed on Jasper, his eyes hardening with cold fury.

"As for you," Justin continued, his voice steady but laden with condemnation, "you were wrong to regret your decision and break your word, especially after you made a promise to Ms. Alyssa, knowing how much it meant to her.

"Your mistake was also in relishing the feeling of having such a remarkable, noble woman like her lower herself to compromise and endure humiliation for your sake—even when you no longer loved her. You gave her hope, only to leave her to fall deeper into despair, again and again."

Jasper's knuckles became white as he tightened his grip over his blanket. His vision began to dim as if he had been hit at the back of his head.

Alyssa had said the exact words to him last night. Hearing them from Justin now felt like a brutal slap—humiliating and raw.

Once Justin had vented his fury, he leaned back in his wheelchair, his eyes lowering in resignation.

"I planned to say this privately, behind closed doors. After all, Ms. Alyssa is Winston's most cherished, and I didn't want to make things awkward in front of him. I didn't want to strain your relationship with the Taylors, either.

"But you didn't give me that chance. What happened between us? How did we drift so far apart?"

He sighed softly, a sound that carried a mix of sorrow and helplessness. "You and Alyssa shared something unforgettable, and even then, you've reached this point. I guess our brotherly bond is also a thing of the past. I can't ask for more. I won't blame you."
