Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 2226

A mysterious manor sat at the top of a mountain in Kontina. The green scenery around it was enchanting.

In a dimly lit bedroom, a calm and soothing incense burned quietly in an antique burner. White smoke drifted through the air, dispelling all traces of unease, restlessness, and noise from the room.

Alyssa lay still on the soft, spacious bed, a peaceful expression on her face as she slept. She was still dressed in her pure and elegant wedding gown, looking so delicate and ethereal that she seemed untouchable-more enchanting than even Sleeping Beauty herself.

In the shadows, a tall man sat in a wheelchair, his back to the light, silently watching Alyssa.

"Sir, I've examined her thoroughly and confirmed that she has no external injuries," Sheryl reported. Despite her limited surgical training, she had the skill to conduct basic examinations. "Her blood test is also complete. There are traces of tranquilizers and sedatives, but nothing harmful to her health."

A hint of sarcasm crept into her voice as she smiled. "I knew it-Jameson cares too much about her to resort to poison."

*Caution is never a bad thing," Justin replied, his voice warm and melodic like the sound of bells. His face held a charming yet thoughtful expression. "It seems Ms. Alyssa has endured a lot on Rose Island lately.

"The last time I saw her, she was vibrant and full of life, thanks to my younger brother's care. Now, she appears much thinner. But even that cannot take away her breathtaking beauty."

"Sir, I've been with you for a long time, and it's rare to hear you speak so highly of anyone," Sheryl remarked, her eyes twitching as she fought to conceal her jealousy. "You truly care about Ms. Alyssa."

A slight smile came across Justin's face. "Are you being jealous?"
