Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2499

Alyssa, riding in her Rolls-Royce adorned with the Spirit of Ecstasy, made her way toward Belbanks.

Sean, seated in the passenger seat, glanced at the rearview mirror repeatedly, his concern for Alyssa deepening with every look. She appeared dreadful—her face as pale as a white rose trembling in the freezing wind.

There was a profound loneliness about her, as though she were on the verge of wilting away.

Cautiously, Sean asked, "Ms. Alyssa, are you… are you alright?"

Alyssa leaned her head against the icy car window. As the trees flashed past outside, Jasper's bandaged hand surfaced in her mind.

She exhaled heavily, her chest feeling stifled as the wrenching pain in her heart intensified. Was he badly hurt? Was he in pain? Would his daily life be affected?

He had already taken a bullet to the shoulder, been struck in the back by an arrow, and swallowed life-threatening medication that damaged his central nervous system—all because of her.

With yet another injury added to the list, would he truly be able to endure it?

Alyssa's eyes reddened. Suddenly, she lurched forward, covering her face with her hands, overwhelmed by pain and self-reproach. It felt as though she had never brought anything good into Jasper's life.

Ever since they met and fell in love, all she had done was drag him into danger and put his life at risk. How could she be so useless?

"Jasper… I'm sorry. I'm so sorry…"

Burying her face in her hands, tears slipped through her fingers, falling one after another. "Someday, you'll get me. Even if you never do, that's fine too. Just forget about me slowly… just like this…"

By the time she arrived at the hospital, breathless, Jonah, Silas, and Axel were already there. Even Liam had managed to leave the military district and arrive just in time.

Among Winston's wives, Lyla and Colene were present. Tatiana was there as well, carrying her chubby, adorable child, whom she had given birth to less than a month earlier.

Cyrus, however, was absent. He was tied down at the station, still interrogating the man who had attacked Alyssa and Justin.

There was one more person who was absent—Mandy.

"Lyse!"
