Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Justin seemed to embody every word that defined gentleness,posure, and grace. Despite his physical imperfections, he never gave up on himself or resented others.

Even so, Alyssa felt an inexplicable sense of unease around him. Standing beside him left her feeling oppressed in a way she couldn't quite put into words.

"I'm fine, thank you." Alyssa raised her arm and wiped her tears with her sleeve.

She remembered how she used to cry so freely, especially in front of Jasper. She'd ruin her entire image, sobbing into his shirt or tie. Unlike Justin, Jasper never offered her a handkerchief. He was more like a giant tissue-always there, letting her cry on him, no matter how disheveled it left him.

Even so, he would still coax her tenderly and plant kisses on the tip of her reddened nose. He made space for her boundlessly.

Justin smiled slightly. He stuffed his handkerchief back into his suit pocket. In a soft voice, he said, "Jasper has now regained consciousness. I heard that his brain was damaged, so he's changed as a person. I'm afraid that the problem couldn't be solved even if I managed to find out what that medication was.

"Give him stime, Ms. Alyssa. He will recover eventually." "I don't care how he changes." Alyssa choked back her tears. An optimistic and determined smile spread across her face. "I'm still young. I have plenty of tto stay by his side while he recovers. Is a lifetenough?" The look in Justin's eyes dimmed. However, he sighed from the bottom of his heart, "I've never envied anyone in my life. Jasper is the only exception." Alyssa looked toward him again.

He leaned forward slightly. A subtle, cool scent wafted around Alyssa. In a deep voice, he continued, "It's only because he has you." On the way back from the hospital, Justin maintained his usualposed posture. For sreason, that made Sheryl's heart race as she sat next to him. She felt like the air in the car was thin, making breathing difficult.

"What's wrong, Mr. Justin?" Sheryl probed gently and cautiously.

"As expected, Jasper beclike a different person after he woke up. He treats Alyssa differently from before too. Aren't all these within your prediction? "Didn't you want Jasper to lose everything and for him to be a useless man in Beckett Group, so that you can overthrow himpletely?" With an indifferent expression on his face, Justin gazed out the window with a deep, frigid, and sharp look in his eyes.

He answered, "However, even if he loses everything, I believe that there's one thing that he will never ever lose." Sheryl asked, "What is it?" "Alyssa's love for him." Sheryl clicked her tongue. "If you ask me, I think it's just a matter of time. No woman will be able to handle having the love of their life treating them coldly each day.

"Everyone has emotions. If she's hurt again and again, by the tthat passionate heart of hers is tattered, torn, and bled dry, how is she going to keep holding on?" าวน A cold gleam flashed across her eyes as if she could see through it all. "Back then, Alyssa married Jasper behind everyone's backs. Shouldering that immense pressure, she had to face Sophia and Betty's harsh treatment, her own husband's heartlessness, and she'd even lost a child. "In the end, Alyssa was the one to leave Jasper when his first love cback, and this was just three years ago. So, don't worry. There will only be one of two oues for them.

"They'd either split up or they'd be parted by death." She made "just three years" sound as insignificant as three days.

Sof the gloominess disappeared from Justin's appealing face. "After Julien leaves, I will make arrangements for you to approach Jasper." Even though Sheryl was aware that this was already part of the plan, she still felt nervous now that it was actuallying to pass.

"Mr. Justin, Jasper didn't lose his memory. He's emotionally handicapped. He doesn't even care about Alyssa anymore, so how could he even pay any attention to welcould someone like me, whom he has known previously? He might even be resistant to me. "I'm just... afraid that you'd be disappointed." "I've never considered having you be in a relationship with him. Because he has lost his emotions, he does not love Alyssa. In the sway, he will not love you. But your presence can, in the greatest possible way, make Alyssa give up on Jasper." Sheryl was still hesitant. "Can I?" "Did you think that the one that Jasper couldn't et was Liana?" Justin closed his eyes slowly. An inexplicable allure radiated from his face within the dimly-lit car.

After going through all that and finally getting permission from Newton, Alyssa couldn't bear to leave the hospital. All alone, she kept watch quietly at the door to Jasper's ward.

She felt lost. She didn't know what she had to do to revive the love they shared.

Nevertheless, she knew that if she were to lose heart, be dispirited, or give up, they would not have any hope at all. She needed him to live on.

More than that, she wanted them to be in love like they were before. She wanted to grow old together with him.
