Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 569

Alyssa reflexively held Jasper when he fell toward the ground. She was startled by the warm liquid on her hands. When she slowly unfurled her palm, she was shocked by the massive amount of blood.

Then, she noticed the long, humiliating lash marks on Jasper's broad back. His white shirt was now stained red from the bleeding.

Unable to contain her anger, her eyes flashed with fury as she questioned, "Jasper, are you okay?"

Covered in sweat, he lay in her arms and muttered, "Are you worried about me?"

"Bullshit!" she blurted out without thinking.

His heart raced with delight as he grinned. "Thank you, Lyse."

Feeling angry, she hissed at him, "Shut up! You're badly injured. Stop talking. I don't want to hear a word from you."

He smiled bitterly and whispered in her ear, "Okay."

Alyssa's sudden appearance left everyone in astonishment. Lauren, who had witnessed the entire incident from the sidelines, welled up with tears at Alyssa's timely intervention.

On the other hand, Sophia and Betty wore disapproving scowls.

"My husband and his father had gone through the same situation as well. It's only fair that Jasper receives the same treatment.

"Besides, what happens today is our family matter. You and Jasper are divorced. You are no longer part of our family. What gives you the right to speak on this matter?"

Alyssa had anticipated Sophia's argument and remained poised. However, Jasper was enraged at the way Sophia bullied Alyssa. He was about to reprimand her when a booming voice interrupted him.

"Alice may lack the authority, but I certainly don't!"
