Can’t Win Me Back

"I'm sorry, Lyse." Winston shut his eyes, which were now welled up with tears.

"I can't tell you the reason.

But please trust me on one thing—what your mother and I had was eternal.

She's the only one I love, even till today." "Dad..." "Truth be told, during those days when I was really ill, there was one thing I thought about every day.

I thought about giving up on treatment and just letting it all go.

That way, I would be able to be reunited with your mother in heaven sooner." Alyssa rested her head on Winston's knees and let out a long sigh.

The ambiguity of Winston's response made her feel even more troubled.

It gave her an even stronger desire to pursue the truth about Jennifer's life story.

Xavier was startled to see Jasper returning to his room.

"That was a quick proposal, Mr.

Beckett! Did madam say 'yes'?" Jasper shook his head dejectedly.

"I didn't propose." "What? Why not? This is such a great opportunity!" "T'll wait for another chance in the future." Jasper wasn't keen to go into too much detail.

He simply came up with an excuse and said, "I have to be ready with my own preparations in order to propose.

Using Landon and Lauren's wedding as a stepping stone doesn't seem like a good idea.

It also appears insincere." Xavier pondered for a moment.

Then, he sighed, "I suppose so." Jasper looked at his reflection in the full-length mirror.

He was reminded of Lyla's compliments on his suit and cheered up.

A blissful smile spread across his face.
