Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 85

Alyssa looked at the handsome man in front of her.

He had sunk down on one knee while looking up at her affectionately.

“I heard that my dear sister wants to punish ine.” The man’s lips curled into a mischievous smile. "Axel..." Alyssa murmured in a soft tone.

"Whew! I was so relieved when I heard you call my name.”

Axel Whitaker was the fourth scion of the Taylor family. No one would have thought that a cold and distant man like him was capable of smiling at his sister brightly.

He wrapped a muscular

arm around Alyssa’s waist and held her tenderly. Then, he stuck his other hand into

his trench coat’s pocket and fished out a bar of chocolate. Axel proceeded to tear open the packagir This chocolate bar is a local specialty at Artoria. Besides, it's your favorite as well. Give it a taste.” “Axel!”

Alyssa leaned forward to hug Axel tightly. For some reason, she felt like crying all of a sudden Soon, her tears started staining Axel's shirt.

There were a few reasons behind her emotional breakdown. Alyssa missed Axel a lot, but at the same time, she felt guilt toward Newton and anger toward Liana. She was also frustrated by the fact that she couldn't craft the emerald bracelet.

Deep down, Alyssa still suffered from the disappointment and heartbreak Jasper had caused her. “Lyse? Are you crying?” A surprised Axel caressed the back of Alyssa’s neck gently.

"No..." Alyssa replied moodily.

"Are you sure about that? The front of my shirt is completely soaked, you know.”

“I said no!” Even though Alyssa sounded all choked up, she still denied the fact stubbornly

Axel knew that his sister was a prideful woman and had rarely cried since she was a little girl Hence, he decided to keep his mouth shut.

He continued hugging Alyssa instead while coaxing her gently. A dull ache throbbed from his heart when he saw her sobbing.

Axel's return marked the end of Jaspers peaceful life. That was for sure.

At that time, Jonah and Silas were standing outside the lobby. They watched the touching scene +15 BONUS

Silas gritted his teeth in annoyance. “Damn it, I can't believe that guy got to act cool in front of Lyse! She never showed her vulnerable side in front of me! How the hell did Axel pull that off?” “Since Axel landed the helicopter on Stellus’ grounds, the damages he caused to the tiles and the greenery must be massive.”

Jonah shook his head with a small sigh. “Remember to let Axel know he’s responsible for paying the Despite having worked till dawn, Alyssa was unable to craft the perfect bracelet. She dozed off amidst the pile of ores.

Don had prepared a guest room for the young woman. Axel scooped her into his arms and headed toward the room slowly. Finally, he placed Alyssa on the bed carefully while Silas watched cautiously.

-Axel tucked the sleeping woman in and planted a kiss on her cheek Then, he left the room happily before closing the room behind him.

“Tch! Hey, you stingy prick! You never gave Lyse anything nice, even though you keep traveling around the world! All you did was give her a bar of chocolate! Seriously, just how stingy can you get?” Silas mocked with his arms folded in front of his chest.

“Can you change your attitude for once, Silas?” Axel shot him a sidelong glance

"Hey, show me some respect!” Silas glared back.

"Only if you do it first.”

“F*** you!” Silas cussed out loud furiously. He tried to kick Axel.

Naturally, he was no match for the super spy Axel dodged the kick flawlessly

Silas missed his target. As a result, he almost ripped his jeans, which would have been embarrassing
