Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 1236

"Jonah..." Jasper's voice was so hoarse that it was almost inaudible.

"Jasper ... Beckett..."

Jonah widened his crimson eyes as a raging fury surged in his chest. Like an enraged beast, he rushed fiercely toward the frozen Jasper.

Jasper saw the cold and fierce fist coming toward his cheek, but he remained motionless.

He wanted to be hit. He had deserved it. Even if Jonah beat him to death, Jasper wouldn't complain.

"Jonah! Don't!"

Just as Jonah's fist was about to reach Jasper, Julien appeared in time. He opened his arms and tightly embraced Jonah from behind.

"Let go." Jonah bit his lip hard, but it was his heart that was bleeding.

"No!" Julien's arms trembled around Jonah's waist. Panting heavily, he shouted, "What's the use of hitting him? Can you bring back what Lyse lost by hitting him?"

"But... he deserves to die!"

Jonah was so furious that his cheek muscles twitched. As he savagely struggled, the tears he barely held back started flowing again. "How can he stay alive? My sister ... my sister can never get pregnant again!

"She's only 25 and has forever lost the right to be a mother! All because of you! Jasper, why don't you just die?"

Yes, he deserved to die brutally.

Jasper, like a doll without blood and soul, looked desolate with dull eyes.

Julien noticed that Jasper seemed inexplicably miserable. His hair was still dripping wet, and droplets fell down his bloodless, once- handsome face.

His elegant and straight suit was soaked. Moreover, his pants and shoes were covered in mud, looking extremely dirty.

Coincidentally, when Alyssa was taken away by her father, it happened to be raining outside.

In the pouring rain, Jasper chased after the Taylor family's car for a long time but never got to see Alyssa's face.

"I'm sorry... It's all my fault... It's all because of me..."

He repeatedly murmured in despair, "It's all my fault ... All my fault ... I'm sorry..."

"Jasper, do you know how much Lyse likes children? Do you know how much she hoped to have a child with you back then?"

That once-proud Jonah had his tears streaming down uncontrollably as if his tear ducts had burst open.

"During the three years she was married to you, she told us countless times... that she wanted to be a mother. When she recalled your in- name-only marriage and your indifference toward her, she would call me in the middle of the night ... crying secretly ..."

Jasper's heart convulsed as if being tortured by a poisoned blade. The pain surged through him, spreading rapidly throughout his body and invading all his senses and consciousness.

His eyes were red-rimmed, and his shoulders trembled violently.

All he could feel was pain as if his bones were being pulled apart and his tendons were being severed.

It was an unbearable pain.

"I didn't know... I didn't know ..."

Tears welled up in Jasper's eyes. He parted his pale lips and almost incoherently said, "If I had known ... I..."

"You didn't know?"

In extreme anger, Jonah laughed. "You didn't know you had a one- night stand with Lyse. And you didn't know Lyse was pregnant with your child. Are you joking, or are you really that stupid?

"But no matter which one, I can never forgive you. If I handed Lyse over to such a heartless man like you, I wouldn't deserve to be human!"

Hearing this, Julien was astonished and couldn't help but sigh helplessly.
He had been back in the country for quite some time and had experienced many thrilling events with them. Naturally, he knew how much Jasper loved Alyssa.
But the three years of a hopeless marriage had hurt Alyssa too deeply.
