Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
Chapter 156

i

Jasper sat on the couch in the study, gently massaging his temples. He rested his elbows on his knees and leaned forward. Shoulders trembling, he appeared to be in great pain.

His head started aching on the way home, and his condition was exacerbated after listening to the three women badmouthing Alice.

A princess who was a pauper. It was not their place to badmouth Alice.

"Mr. Jasper, is your headache acting up again? I'll get the medications!" Mrs. Rosle found the pain relief pills in a drawer and brought

him a glass of water. After taking the pills, he seemed more at ease as the pain reduced.

"You can't rely on pills all the time! I remember that your condition Improved after Madam Alice performed some acupuncture on you. Shall we get her to check on you?" Mrs. Rosle suggested.

"Mrs. Rosle." He choked on tears, "H-Have they been putting down Alice all along? They said that Alice made their meals for three years. Is that true?"

"Yeah, Mr. Jasper. I told you Madam Alice was a hard worker, but you insisted that she was faking it. She went at it for three years! I'd have to praise her even if she was doing it for show. Such persistence!" He pursed his pale lips.

"When she first joined the family, her cooking was average. She humbly asked me to teach her. I told her that it was the job of the maids and chef, and I asked her to sit back and relax.

"She insisted on working, saying that she should cook for you and take care of your daily needs because she couldn't help you much at work.

"At first, she coughed a lot from the oll and smoke and had to wear a mask in the kitchen! But she eventually got used to it. She was busy in the kitchen every morning before I was even awake!"

He wondered the reason behind the coughing. Was Alice allergic to smoke?

A suffocating sensation closed in. Even the pills couldn't help.

Sighing in frustration and dismay. Mrs. Rosie grumbled. "I've had enough of Sophia and Betty. Madam Alice sacrificed for the family. How could they not show an ounce of gratitude and mock her instead? It's o "Mr. Jasper, I wished you could get back with Madam Alice. But I also wanted her to marry another man because it upsets me to think about her suffering in

this family. I want her to marry into a family where she wouldn't be mocked and humiliated."

Words hurt as much as sticks and stones. Jasper furrowed his brows, feeling like he was struck by lightning.

The next few days went by uneventfully, which meant that Newton Beckett's birthday was nearing, and Alyssa would finalize her divorce with Jasper. She had mixed emotions about the matter. When she married Jasper, they did not host a wedding or publicly announce their marriage. They hastily registered for the marriage certificate at the city hall without even throwing a celebratory dinner. The only photo they took together was from that day. She smiled sweetly and leaned into Jasper, who looked expressionless as though he was Photoshopped into the photo.

She had naively believed that things would change for the better after they were married. She thought Jasper would warm up to her one day as long as she tried her best.

It took her long enough to realize that she could not make him love her through sheer effort.

Their marriage did not fail because of a lack of effort from her side. There was an Insurmountable distance between them from the beginning.
