Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 691

Chapter 691 

“Lyse… What are you saying?” Newton stared dully at her, stunned by her words. 

“Things went out of hand. Someone tried attacking us. I was trying to protect Lyla and couldn’t defend myself. Not even our bodyguards were quick enough… 

Alyssa recalled how Jasper had leapt to her aid, protecting her and taking the hard hit himself. 

Tears clouded her eyes. Even her breathing grew harsh. 

“Just when I thought I was done for, Jasper ran out to protect me. If it hadn’t been for him, I would be the 

one in the ER right now. 

“This is all my fault, Grandpa… I shouldn’t have been so slow. You can punish me or scold me 

to Jasper this time.”

“What are you talking about, you silly girl?” Newton’s eyes burned with tears as he pulled Alyssa up to her 

feet. 

“I’d be upset regardless of whether it was you or Jasper in there right now! If it really had been you … I 

would only be more devastated!” 

Feeling touched, Alyssa barely managed to croak out, “Grandpa…” 

“Don’t feel guilty just because Jasper did this for you, Alyssa.” Newton gently caressed Alyssa’s hair, his eyes filled with tenderness. 

“That foolish boy mistreated and held you back for a whole three years, even hurting you so deeply. 

“He’s got what he deserved now! Don’t worry. That hit just might finally wake him up for good!” 

Alyssa knew Newton was only trying to console her. Which grandparent wouldn’t be distraught at the 

sight of their own grandson in such a dire state? 

“Mr. Beckett!” Ben hurried over, looking anxious. 

“Mr. Javier and Madam Sophia are here.” 

Newton frowned. “Didn’t I say not to tell them about this?” 

“I didn’t, but I couldn’t stop the news of something so important from reaching their ears!” 

Just then, Javier and the rest of his family arrived. 

“Jasper? Where’s Jasper?” Javier called out loudly as he walked over. 

He rarely was this worried about his younger son. After hearing how badly Jasper was injured, he had 

been so panicked that he had nearly aged another decade! 

Sophia ground her teeth at Javier’s sudden change in attitude. But she could only pretend to be worried in 

front of him. 

She cried out, “Jasper! Where are you?” 

Not even Betty could stomach it anymore. She quietly winced in disgust behind her mother. 

“What are you yelling so loudly for? This isn’t a funeral!” Newton cried angrily, standing up with his 

secretary’s help. 

“Dad! How is Jasper right now?” Javier asked worriedly. 

“They’re still tending to him in the ER. There’s no use getting all worked up now. Just sit down and wait!” 

“Mr. Taylor, I heard that my son only got injured because he was saving your daughter. What do you have 

to say to that?” Javier stormed up to Winston. 

If it weren’t for their professional relationship, Javier would have already grabbed the latter by the lapel.
