Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2576

Upon hearing that, Jasper and Alyssa exchanged a knowing glance, a silent understanding passing between them.

Newton caught the look they shared, and his heart swelled with a sweetness richer than honey. He nodded firmly. "I'm prepared. Truth be told… I've been waiting a long time for this day."

"Grandpa, public outrage is growing. The authorities will likely bring Justin in for questioning within the next two days."

Jasper took Newton's hand in his too, his expression turning resolute. "However, I can't hand over the evidence you gave me just yet. If I do, it may become harder to secure a conviction against Justin in the future. I plan to wait and see how things unfold before making a decision."

"I've always trusted your judgment," Newton replied. "But remember to discuss everything with your wife before acting. Don't go at it alone. Alyssa is sharp and perceptive. She'll help you make better decisions and reduce the risks."

Newton then took both their hands and placed Jasper's over Alyssa's. "So, when are you two getting back together? Will I live to attend your wedding reception?"

Jasper swallowed hard, pressing his lips together as his heart pounded.

A faint blush spread across Alyssa's cheeks as she lowered her gaze. "Everything is so chaotic right now. We still have many battles ahead. I don't really have the headspace to think about that."

Newton raised a brow. "Oh, you don't? Then should I do the thinking for you? I arranged your marriage once before. As someone who enjoys matchmaking, I wouldn't mind setting you two up all over again!"

Alyssa would love that. She would love to marry Jasper again. It was her dream! But… she longed to hear him propose to her himself. She wanted to hear him say it again—"I love you, Lyse."

More than anything, she wished to hear those words from him once more. Yet, she wanted him to take the initiative. Until then, she would wait.

It wasn't about playing games or being difficult. It was simply that, unless she was certain his feelings had fully returned, any move she made might only become an invisible burden—something he would feel obligated to carry.

Once, her love had weighed on him.
