Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
Chapter 1624

It was deep into the autumn season at Solana City. The autumn breeze was chilling to the bone.

Jonah hadn't been home in three whole days. He stayed at church the whole time. He prayed and repented in front of God.

What was he repenting about?

He used to work for an underground mafia. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the Find_Nøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Was he repenting for the sins he'd committed back then, as he usually would? Or was he repenting for succumbing to temptation and falling in love with someone he shouldn't be in love with?

On the fourth day, it was as if Jonah was having an out-of-body experience. He felt an invisible pull that led him all the way to the Lovelace Residence before he even realized it.

He knew that Julien had been based in Mosgravia since he was young. He had no other properties in the country. Hence, there was nowhere else he could go apart from this house.

He was deeply concerned. He tried to hold back his concerns for three days. However, he still ended up here.

Jonah was well aware of his position. He knew that he could only wait here helplessly.

All of a sudden, he found himself empathizing with Jasper. Back then, Jasper couldn't care less about the winds or the storm. He insisted on waiting at the door of Heightsnew Villa just to get a glimpse of Alyssa. Jonah now understood how desolated Jasper must have felt.

It was as if his stomach was overproducing stomach acids. He felt the acid rising in his throat, leaving a bitter taste in his mouth.

At that moment, an entourage of luxury cars drove toward the residence. The cars streamed in with class. They stopped at the entrance to the Lovelace Residence.

A driver and a secretary escorted a middle-aged man from the car. The man was dressed smartly in a suit. He was tall and well-built.

Jonah frowned. He recognized that this man was the person in charge of Lovelace Pharmaceuticals. He was Mandy's older brother, Joseph Lovelace.

"Dad! Welcome back!" Aidan hurried out of the house to welcome Joseph. He greeted him politely.

Joseph nodded slightly to acknowledge Aidan's greeting. His face was glum. "Where's Julien?"

"I've locked him up as per your instructions. He's in his room."

Aidan took the opportunity to diss Julien. He wanted to let out his pent-up frustrations. "Dad, Julien went overboard this time. He disregarded our family's principles. Not only that, he's also gotten so close to the Taylors.

"If word about this were to get out, our long-time perseverance would just become a joke to others. People will call us hypocritical prudes.

"On the surface, we've drawn the line with the Taylor family, as if we are a highly moral family. However, in reality, we are secretly trying to please them. They'll say that we're hypocrites!"

Without warning, Joseph stopped. He smirked. "Let's see who will be doing the pleasing moving forward."

"You're right. I heard that Winston is quite ill this time. He almost lost his life. That's why Aunt Mandy ended up panicking and asking for our help.

"Based on my observation, Winston doesn't have long to live. KS Group will definitely go downhill once he's gone. I'd like to see if they'd still be as arrogant when that time comes!" Aidan exclaimed through clenched teeth.

Joseph looked at him doubtfully. "I've never noticed you having so much hatred for the Taylors before this. What happened when you went to bring Julien back? Did you get the short end of the stick?" Aidan's heart skipped a beat. He broke out in a cold sweat. "I didn't! They wouldn't have the guts to touch us!"

Just as they were about to enter the house, Aidan suddenly felt a chill behind his back. Naturally, he turned back to take a look.

"What is it?" Joseph asked.

Aidan shuddered. "Dad, there's a priest who isn't dressed like a priest. He seems to be staring in our direction. That's quite terrifying to see at this hour."

It was late into the night. So, he hadn't managed to get a good look at Jonah's face.

Joseph looked back and furrowed his brows. He didn't see anyone on the street across from them.

Aidan looked shocked. "Oh? Where did he go? He was right there."

"Aidan, I can see that you've been tired recently. Do make sure you rest well," Joseph said as he stepped into the house.

Aidan was at a loss for words.
