Can’t Win Me Back

Even without Jasper's presence, he was confident that the Taylors and the rescue team would have been able to save Alyssa.

It became clear what the person manipulating Remy had been aiming for.

But why had Remy let Jasper go at that crucial moment? Had he experienced a sudden change of heart? Or was he, in fact, Alyssa's brother, Damien? Jasper's mind filled with all kinds of thoughts.

Before he could dwell too deeply, there was a knock at the door.

Xavier hurried over to open it, freezing in shock when he saw who stood outside.

"Mr. Winston?" Winston was leaning on Silas for support, his expression grim.

" Mr. Beckett is in there, isn't he? May I have a word with him?" Xavier quickly stepped aside, gesturing for Winston and Silas to enter.

"Mr. Winston..." "You are wounded.

Stay put!" Winston insisted, swiftly moving forward to gently press Jasper back down.

Silas was filled with heartache and regret when he saw how badly Jasper was injured just because he wanted to save Alyssa.

Those complex emotions were inexplicable.
