Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 716

Chapter 716 

Jasper realized something after falling in love with Alyssa. She was like a coconut-tough on the outside and soft within. She was a sincere and kind-hearted soul. 

Alyssa’s affection for him had dwindled, and he resorted to gaining her sympathy just for a few more moments with her. 

In the past, Alyssa had to beg for his affection, but now the tables had turned. It was his turn to experience what it felt like to be on the other side. 

In the end, Alyssa had no choice but to stay with him. She clarified, “Don’t take this the wrong way. I didn’t stay because you wanted me to. It’s because I promised Grandpa and Lauren to look after you.” 

She gathered herself and rose from the bed, announcing. Til rest in the adjoining room. Call me if you 

need anything.” 

Jasper’s gaze deepened, and he held onto her hand. He suggested, “Lyse, why don’t you spend the night 

here?” 

“The couch is uncomfortable to sleep on,” she explained, attempting to free her hand from his grasp but 

failing. 

“Then, let’s share the bed,” he whispered as if trying to persuade her. 

“Nothing good ever comes out of your mouth,” she snapped. She wondered what lengths he would go to. 

“Don’t misunderstand me, Lyse. I won’t force anything against your will, even if I wanted to 

help but lean closer to her as he felt the heat rise in his body. 

In her thoughts, she dismissed the idea. 

He couldn’t 

Then, she grumbled, “You stink to high heaven. Stay away from me!” Moving backward, she pinched her 

nose with a look of disgust. 

She added, “I don’t want to share a room with you. I might faint from the smell.” 

“Do I stink? I think it’s 

not that bad,” he replied, sniffing himself. “Back when I was in the military, the 

conditions were rough. I could only shower once a week. It was worse than now. 

“When I returned and took on my role in the company, it felt strange to be able to shower daily.” 

Her gaze wavered. She was the only one, besides himself, who understood the challenges he had faced.
