Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 2317

On the way home from the hospital, Alyssa replayed Jasper's words in her mind, recalling the promise they'd sealed with a high five. Her heart swelled with a mix of emotions that she could barely define. Watching the snowfall outside, her eyes shimmered with tears. Softly, she murmured to herself, "Alyssa, he came to see you of his own accord and was willing to go along with what you wanted. Isn't that enough? "You no longer have the right to be carefree and proud in front of him. You need to be grateful."

As Sean drove, he glanced into the rearview mirror. Seeing Alyssa's desolate expression stirred a deep sorrow within him.

Being separated from Jasper had turned Alyssa's world upside down. If Jasper were to die, Alyssa's life would be completely shattered.

Perhaps having Jasper alive was the best outcome fate could offer after all they had endured, however bittersweet it was.

"Ms. Alyssa, it's late. Why don't you go home to rest instead of heading back to KS Group? You'll soon be busy with the fight for Solana City's Project A5," Sean said gently, concerned when he saw how pale Alyssa looked. Alyssa frowned, looking troubled. Instead of responding to Sean's suggestion, she said, "Sean, there's someone I'd like you to look into."

Sean responded immediately, "Of course. Tell me more."

"20 years ago, a woman named Mildred Hayes worked as a helper at Seaview Manor, caring for Grandpa Newton. Her mother's last name is Rollins, and she still lives in Solana City."

The grievance in her expression disappeared, replaced by her usual calm and composed demeanor. She continued, "This woman was killed by Justin 20 years ago, but the exact circumstances and cause of her death remain unclear. We need to uncover the full story." This revelation shocked Sean. "Justin was involved in a murder at such a young age? He's the devil incarnate, isn't he?"
