Alyssa was still unconscious. Despite feeling drained, both physically and emotionally, Winston refused to leave her side until she had regained consciousness.
Nevertheless, his heart was filled with a plethora of gut-wrenching emotions. Afraid of losing control of himself before his family members, he walked to the balcony on his own and silently wiped away his tears while braving the chill winds.
He had been a strong man all his life. It was extremely rare for him to shed a tear. Yet, each time he teared up, it was because of Alyssa and her mother.
"Mr. Taylor." A crisp and pleasant voice sounded from behind him.
Winston quickly composed himself, swallowing back the tears, and turned around to see Justin. His gaze became guarded, distant, but he masked it swiftly.
He nodded at him and said, "Mr. Justin, I know you're not in the best of health. The winds here are cold; it would be better if you went back inside and rested."
"Mr. Taylor," Justin began, his voice sincere, "My younger brother made a rash decision yesterday. He rushed to Skydon City to find a woman who meant a great deal to him. He missed his appointment with Ms. Alyssa because of it, and for that, I want to apologize on his behalf."
Justin's eyes contained a sincerity and an eagerness that he had never shown before. "I have found the best specialist in the country to treat Ms. Alyssa. Whether it's her frostbite or other medical conditions, I will do my best to ensure she is cured."
"Thank you for the kind gesture, Mr. Justin. But our family can still afford to hire doctors, so we shall not trouble you."
Winston turned Justin down without any hesitation. Right after that, he let out a calm and relieved smile.
"After knowing Jasper for such a long time, this is the first time I've heard about him rushing to a different city, especially for a woman. I suppose that woman is someone who's really important to him. My guess is that she is someone who has once saved his life or has been through life and death with him."
Justin paused. He was just about to speak when Winston clapped back at him.
"The fact that he chose to see that woman instead of meeting my daughter shows that he does not only think about love. Rather, he is a compassionate person who values his friendships too. If I were in his shoes, I would have made the same decision as him and gone to meet the woman too."
Winston fixed his eyes on Justin's face, which had turned a little pale. He smirked slightly and continued, "Plus, I heard from Mr. Lynch that Jasper had sent a message to Lyse saying that something had come up for him at the last minute.
"He also tried calling her, but she didn't receive his call. Subsequently, Lyse hiked up the mountain on her own and ended up in danger due to her stubbornness. She was just acting ridiculously again.
"Let this experience be a lesson for her so that she will learn from it. No one could spoil and pamper her unconditionally her entire life."

The readers' comments on the novel: Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
It’s dwindled down to 1 page a day??...
7 chapters a day would be great...
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🙄...
