Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 705

After knocking, Alyssa entered the office. She greeted Abel, "Hi, Dr. Liverton."

"Ms. Alyssa, you looked flushed. Are you feeling unwell?" he asked with concern.

"Ah, I'm fine," she reassured him while silently cursing out Jasper. She took a deep breath and touched her burning cheeks. "Are Jasper's CT scan results out yet?"

"Yes." Abel retrieved the scan results from his drawer and handed it to her gravely. She scrutinized the results under the office lights, her expression turning troubled as her heart sank.

"Ms. Alyssa, you can tell what's wrong, can't you?" Abel looked worried. "But the surgery was a huge success. Only three doctors in the country have succeeded in performing this surgery so far."

"Is this what you call a success?" she wondered, feeling frustrated. Her trembling hands limped by her body, ruffling the scan results.

She groaned, "In my opinion, the surgery was a failure because of the complications!"

The only thing she couldn't bear was the taste of defeat, especially when it concerned Jasper's health.

Clutching her sleeve, she felt a pang of heartache.

Knowing that she was prideful, Abel comforted her, "It was a complicated surgery. I'm not surprised at the complications at all, so please do not blame yourself. Saving Mr. Beckett's life is itself an achievement!"

"No wonder he was emotional when he saw me just now …" Her voice trailed off. She clenched her fists indignantly and inquired, "Is there any way to treat the complications?"

Abel sighed. "We can only suppress his symptoms with sedatives. That's the best option for the time being. However, the patient could better manage the symptoms if he remains calm and emotionally stable."

Emotionally stable? Did his emotions stabilize after kissing her?
