Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Winston's words made everyone stop in their tracks. Suddenly, everything went quiet.
Alyssa widened her eyes and parted her lips in disbelief as she stared at her father.
"W-What did you just say?"
Jasper's chest rose and fell with tremors, and his pupils contracted as he gazed at Winston's face. His heart skipped a beat as
well.
"If you go back now, you'll probably arrive home at dawn, right? If you don't have anything planned tomorrow morning, stay here
tonight." After saying that, Winston lowered his eyes and cleared his throat.
This time, Jasper heard it clearly. So did Alyssa and everyone else.
This enormous surprise sent Jasper's heart pounding with excitement. His eyes welled up with tears of emotion, and his throat
felt heavy with gratitude as he extended his thanks to Winston.
"Thank you, Mr. Taylor. Thank you for taking me in."
He actually used the words "take me in".
This indomitable man, the scion of Solana City's top company, was extremely humble at this moment.
Alyssa's heart ached. Unable to bear seeing him like this, she quickly intervened. "What are you doing? It's just staying
overnight. It's not a big deal."

"It is, Lyse." Jasper's eyes were red-rimmed, with barely perceptible tears shimmering in his eyes. But the excitement in his heart
surged like waves. "I'm so happy now. None of the achievements I've made in my life have made me as happy as this moment."
For others, it was just a simple overnight stay.
But for Jasper, it was like a ray of hope for a rebirth.
Winston gave Jasper a meaningful look, then turned and walked into the villa.
"Sean, has Dad forgiven Jasper? Has he accepted Jasper?" Tatiana asked excitedly in Sean's ear as she held his arm.
"I hope so."
Sean looked at Tatiana gently as he tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "Anyway, any progress is good."
Moved, Alyssa cupped Jasper's face in her hands. She suddenly pressed her soft, red lips against his, kissing him as if there
was no one else around.
At first, Jasper was stiff with shyness, but then he couldn't help but embrace her. Their lips and tongues entwined, reluctant to
part.
The elders of the Taylor family were too embarrassed to watch anymore. They quickly turned around and talked about other
things as they walked away.
Sean tightened his grip on Tatiana's slender waist. He swallowed hard and pulled her into the house in a hurry.
"Hey, Sean, slow down." Tatiana's legs under her white dress were struggling with all their might.

Sean's sharp jawline tensed, and so did his Adonis belt.
Slow down? He couldn't slow down at all.
He wanted her. He wanted her desperately.
That night, happiness filled the air in Heightsnew Villa.
Jasper had been busy with various matters in the company recently. Not only was he searching for Inigo's whereabouts with
Landon, but he was also dealing with Sophia's case.
He squeezed every ounce of energy when working so that he could free up more time to be with Alyssa.
Although he often felt exhausted and couldn't keep his eyes open, once he got into bed, he became lively and passionate,
pampering and satisfying his woman.
He was afraid that Alyssa would think he was old. She was only 25, and he was already in his 30s.
Those love rivals might not be wealthier than him, but they were all younger. He couldn't let Alyssa feel any inkling of his
weakness.
Even though everyone knew they were already married, Jasper still behaved like a priest who sought shelter here. He obediently
sat in his room, as if stepping out of the door would lead him to the chaos of the world.
After all, his adorable wife was living on the same floor. It was too tempting.
Tonight, Winston broke his usual rules and accepted him. If he didn't behave himself and took the advantage to climb into
Alyssa's bed, it wouldn't be surprising if he couldn't survive until tomorrow.
Jasper leaned against the headboard, working on an urgent task sent by Xavier with his laptop.
After some time, his eyelids slowly closed, and he fell asleep sitting up.
He didn't know how long it had passed when he suddenly felt a cool breeze on his face. It was tingling and refreshing.
Initially exhausted and asleep, his years of military experience rendered him more alert and sensitive than the average person.
Jasper instantly opened his eyes. His eyes flickered with a cold glint, like an awakened lion.

In the darkness came Alyssa's startled cry.
The next moment, Alyssa, who had replaced the laptop and was now seated on Jasper's lap, suddenly lost her balance and
leaned backward.
Jasper's drowsiness vanished instantly as his breath grew heavy. His hands swiftly supported her arched back, effortlessly lifting
her. Thus, Alyssa's soft and fragrant body nestled into his warm chest.
