Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 143

Axel was in the backyard, walking straight toward his Lamborghini without so much as looking back.

“As far away from this place as possible, obviously. Hopefully, I never have to come back.” When Axel turned to look at her, she could see that his cheek had turned alarmingly red where their father had hit him.

“You always said you cared the most about our brothers and me. So if this is our home, then it’s your home too. How could you just never come back again?” Alyssa asked, holding onto her brother’s hand. Her heart hurt so deeply.

Axel gazed at his beloved sister, then gently cupped her cheek. “Of course, I love you guys. I’ll love you guys wherever I go. But this isn’t home anymore. I’ve fulfilled my promise to you, Lyse. You wouldn’t still be upset with me because of it, right?”

Alyssa nodded slowly, suddenly feeling like crying.

“If you want to show respect and love for Winston, then I suggest you never make me appear before him ever again. I have to go now. Duty Calls. I’ll come to visit you soon.”
