Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1025

Jonah blushed, his heart pounding when he met Julien's passionate eyes. He remarked, "You look pale. You must have been overworked."

"Are you worried about me?" A tender look crossed Julien's enchanting eyes.

Gulping, Jonah managed to respond, "Yeah."

Julien was incredibly elated at Jonah's curt reply, and he no longer held onto the resentment from earlier. He was easily appeased, all because he had helplessly fallen for Jonah.

He silently leaned into Jonah's arms and explained, "I extracted the bullet from Mr. Beckett's left shoulder and the arrow on his back. Thankfully, the arrow wasn't poisoned, or he might not have survived.

"Even so, he is in a critical condition. The arrow narrowly missed his organ by half an inch. I'm sure everyone here knows the consequences of organ rupture. Even if Dr. White were here, she wouldn't be able to save his life."

A stunned silence enveloped the group. Alyssa shivered, feeling a crushing weight on her chest. Tears brimmed in her eyes.

As Dr. White herself, she was fully aware of the gravity of Jasper's situation after hearing Julien's account.

"How about now? How's he holding up?" Landon pressed on.

She nodded slowly and swallowed hard. "Alright, I'll wait."

Julien, not one to be easily moved, found himself sympathizing with Alyssa as he witnessed her dejected look.

After Jeremy donated his blood to Jasper, the medical staff sent him to a patient room to rest.
