Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

"I won't call you that next time if you don't like me doing so. But I was really just worried about you and hoping that you would be able to regain consciousness as soon as possible."

Alyssa smiled coldly at him. She was broad-minded and had never been bothered by these trivial matters.

"Justin, what brings you here?" Alyssa's entire body hurt. She tried to get up but failed to do so.

"Don't move." Justin held her down. In a low voice, he urged, "The doctor said that you were very lucky. Even though you didn't have any broken bones, you have quite a number of external injuries. Plus, you might have suffered some level of concussion. "These are not to be overlooked. You have to stay in the hospital to recuperate and be under observation for a while."

With a sharp gaze, Alyssa insisted, "You haven't answered my question."

Justin pressed his lips together slightly. He answered calmly, "My private physician, Ms. Gillis, lives in a villa nearby. When I came to visit her, I suddenly felt unwell, so she sent me to the hospital for treatment. I happened to see you being brought into the emergency room."

He happened to see her? Alyssa's heart sank. She might have believed it if someone else said that. However, Justin's words couldn't be trusted.

"How long have I been unconscious for?"

"Not too long. Just one day and one night."

Justin leaned forward, closing the distance between him and her. In a tender tone of voice, he added, "I don't have your family members' phone number, but I informed Grandpa.

"He, in turn, informed Mr. Winston about your traffic accident. Don't be afraid. Your family members are already making their way here."

A look of astonishment came across Alyssa's face. She struggled to get up, but was held down by him once again.
