She was like an ant on a hot pan, jittering with worry.
The other end of the phone was exceptionally quiet.
"Mom? Mom! Did you hear what I said? What should we do now?"
"We need to get rid of that maid," Sophia said sinisterly after a long time.
"Pretend nothing ever happened. Let's keep it down and get someone to spy on her. When the time is right, we'll make this little troublemaker disappear from the face of the earth!"
…
Alyssa was discharged from the hospital after she recovered.
Axel wasn't there when she was discharged because he didn't want to see Winston. Everyone else from the Taylor family came. Even Winston's wives rushed over from Belbanks.
The wives were empathetic women. When they saw how scrawny the princess of the family had become, tears streamed down their faces. Alyssa had lost her usual radiant appearance.
"My dear child, you've suffered so much."
Lyla was the most sensitive of all. Her eyes were swollen after all the crying. She went to Alyssa and hugged her tightly. "It's our fault that we didn't protect you. I'm sorry, my dear."
"Lyla, I'm the one who should be apologizing." Alyssa returned Lyla's hug. Pain surged in her heart.
"Are you feeling better now? Did Dad buy you anything like bags, clothes, or jewelry?
"Whoa, don't tell me that he's so stingy that he didn't buy you anything!"
"Pfft, please don't say that. On the other hand, Lyla bought a lot of premium ingredients and local products to cook for you for a month. She wants to replenish your body again," Colene said, laughing as she hugged Manday's waist.
"Huh? I'm not in confinement or hurt. I don't need these." Alyssa beckoned with her hand. She was a fan of Lyla's cooking, but she was worried about gaining extra weight.
She had to go for countless rounds of kayaking to burn everything off.

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...
Just wonder what happened to publish 7 chap/day...
