"My dear son! You finally called!" Javier exclaimed with a smile. He was uncharacteristically warm and friendly.
Jasper blinked, taken aback by the warmth in Javier's tone. He had never enjoyed such a cordial conversation with his father, and Javier had never addressed him as "dear son."
Javier seemed to reserve his paternal affection for Justin alone, and that stung Jasper. He couldn't help but wonder if Javier considered Sophia his one true love and Justin his sole son.
The overt favoritism was outrageous, leaving Jasper at a loss for words.
"Dad, how are you?" Justin asked. He had a distinctive chest voice and was loud enough to be heard by Jasper.
"I'm good. How about you? Are you recovering well at Mosgravia? Any relapses?" Javier questioned. He had flown to Mosgravia last year to visit Justin but was too busy to do the same this year.
"I'm doing well, Dad. Please don't worry about me," Justin answered. Then, he shifted the topic with concern, "I heard that Jasper's hospitalized. How is he doing? Is it a serious case?"
Jasper furrowed his brows, touched by Justin's concern but also bewildered by Justin's updated knowledge of his younger brother's life after years of living abroad.
Javier informed Justin, "Jasper underwent a major surgery. He was in a coma for a few days, but he's awake now."
Justin wondered, "Are you visiting him at the hospital now?"
"Yes, your grandpa and I are here in Jasper's room."
"Can you pass the phone to Jasper? I'd like to talk to him."

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...
