Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 257

Chapter 257

“Miss … Ms. Alyssa has gone to bed, Mr.Jonah,”Sean muttered.

“Your balls must be growing bigger whileyou’re away from my side, Sean. Are you seriously lying to me on her behalf now?”Jonah rarely got angry, but when he did, he was a menacing force.

Jonah then said, “I’ll repeat myself. Pass the phone to Alyssa. Or else you’ll be removed from your station right away!”

Alyssa chewed on her lip, her heart beating fast in her chest as she took the phone and put it up to her ear.

“Jo-Jonah.”

Jonah took a deep breath, as if suppressing some intense emotion.”Come outside. We need to talk.”

…

 

Alyss a walked out of her house, her heart in her throat as she went up to Jonah’s Aston Martin by the road.

The man remained stoic and still against the car, his gray suit making him seem like some sullen god. All Alyssa could think of right now was how terrified she was.

“Jonah,”she murmured.

“Get in. It’s cold.”Jonah took off his coat,put it over Alyssa’s shoulders, then led her into his car.

Finally, when they were inside, he asked worriedly, “Where did he hurt you?”

“My arm …” Alyssa looked down, feelinglike a child who had made a mistake.

Jonah’s expression hardened as he grasped her arm and slowly pulled up her sleeve. His eyes filled with anger when he saw the white gauze wrapped around her limb.

 

“It’s okay, Jonah. It was just a skin wound.It doesn’t hurt much anymore, either.”Alyssa reassured him. She didn’t want her brother to worry.

Jonah set her arm down and took her hand. The careful touch made her feel guilty.

“I’m sorry, Jonah. I shouldn’t have keptthis from you. I just think this is something I can handle on my own. That’s why… I didn’t want you to worry.”
