Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2597

Bitter regret began to take root in Jasper's heart. He was the one who had brought these hardships into Alyssa's life. She should have grown up cherished and adored by her father and older brothers. Instead, because of him, she had tasted nothing but misery and witnessed the darkest depths of human nature.

If only she had never met him.

But would he truly be willing to miss out on such a legendary romance as theirs? Could he ever resign himself to that?

No.

He couldn't bear to lose her. He was utterly, hopelessly in love with her.

Eden sneered. "Truth be told, I knew a day like this would come ever since I started working for Justin. I just never expected this day to arrive so soon."

He buried his face in his hands, his shoulders shaking in a sound that was half-sob, half-laugh.

His composure was unraveling.

"Mr. Huber, I've looked into your background," Jasper said. His gaze was steady, his voice entirely composed. "You come from a family of academics and graduated from a prestigious university. You were always a model student of impeccable character.

"Throughout your 15-year career, you worked diligently and have never once stepped out of line. At your core, you aren't a bad man."

"It's useless to bring that up now," Eden replied despondently. "My life is over."

With a stern expression on her face, Alyssa asked, "Are you aware that the authorities have found Sheryl's remains?"

Stunned, Eden stammered, "W-What?"

"You were the one who beheaded her, weren't you?" Alyssa pressed.

Terror seized Eden. His eyes darted around frantically as panic completely took over.

Fearing that Eden might snap and lash out, Jasper instinctively grabbed Alyssa's hand, gripping it tightly as he stepped forward to shield her behind him.
