Chapter 678
Alyssa’s attention was immediately drawn to a beautiful ebony box on the coffee table. Her expertise in
antique collections allowed her to discern that the box contained something truly rare.
“What a lovely box …” She gasped and stared at it.
“Don’t just admire the box. You should see what’s inside.” Jasper encouraged her, standing by her side.
and utterly captivated by her beauty.
Confused yet eager, Alyssa wiped her sweaty palms on her dress. Her endearing action only deepened
Jasper’s affection for her, and he felt an irresistible desire for her.
Carefully, she opened the box to reveal a pink top and a green-stemmed glass goblet that seemed like
something out of a dream.
She exclaimed in delight and covered her mouth.
Winston had collected antiques from all over the world, but he had never acquired an item from the
Regency Era. The glass goblet finally filled that gap, and Alyssa was thrilled by the find.
“I stumbled upon this glass goblet in a Yoarkley collector’s collection three months ago. I thought you
would appreciate it, so I went to great lengths to negotiate with him and convince him to sell it to me,”
Jasper explained with a smile.
The effort he had put into securing this item was inconsequential compared to the joy of seeing her smile.
“It’s absolutely lovely,” she murmured, her eyes sparkling with joy.
Since she didn’t have a pair of gloves, she hesitated to touch the goblet and instead ran her fingers along
its edges.
“You can touch it however you like. It’s yours,” he said tenderly, then slowly wrapped his arms around her
from behind, as if protecting something precious.
He breathed heavily and held her hand firmly from behind. She could feel his warm breath against her hair
and ears, and their hearts raced as their shadows merged.
A sweet, intoxicating scent filled the air.
“Jasper-” she called out and suddenly felt a force from behind. He pressed against her back and
tightened his grip on her waist, pulling her into an embrace.
“Lyse, save the scolding and punching for later,” he whispered. For now, he just wanted to savor the hug.
It was time for ballroom dancing at the birthday party.

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🙄...
Hello, more chapters please. It has been over 1 week since we have received 7 chapters. Thank you...
