Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1355

"Why? Do you finally notice me beside you?" teased Julien while he admired Jonah's perfect side profile.

He grumbled, "You've been ignoring me for a good half an hour. I was thinking of ignoring you forever if you kept giving me the cold shoulder."

Despite being fatally attracted to Julien's childlike behavior, Jonah hid his feelings and asked calmly, "Do you often join Mandy and the others for tea?"

"Yeah."

"You're a young man. Don't you feel bored when you hang out with a bunch of middle-aged ladies?" Jonah scrutinized Julien. "You led a carefree life in Mosgravia. There's no need to suppress your wants. Just do anything you feel like doing."

"What if you can't handle me if I let go of myself?" Julien drawled and cast an irresistibly flirtatious look at Jonah.

Jonah felt bitter, but he remained as distant as ever. "That's none of my business."

"Oh, right. You're busy with your work as the president. You won't have time to worry about me," replied Julien with a hint of disappointment.

Jonah pressed his lips hesitantly.

"I just wanted to be closer to Mandy and the others, in case we become family one day. This is a social skill, Mr. Jonah."

Become family? Jonah's mind was messy with thoughts. Julien pressed his body against Jonah's, his crisp scent lingering in the air. He purred, "Anyway, we're kind of like family because my Aunt Mandy is married to your dad. Isn't that right?"

Jonah sat upright in the car with a hint of emotion in his eyes. He casually remarked, "Lyla said you love nuts." Staring ahead, he tensed up as he added, "You ate all the dried fruits at home."

Since Jasper had no free hands, Xavier had no choice but to pick up the heels for Alyssa.

Back in the bedroom, Alyssa and Jasper took a bath. Then, he patiently waited for her to complete her skincare, haircare, and manicure routines. By the time she was done, dawn had broken.

They lay in the bed in exhaustion. He eagerly pulled her into a hug. She drifted to sleep with her head on his shoulder. She mumbled, "Mm… You sure behave well today."

He kissed her forehead and smiled. "If I didn't, you would have to take a nap instead."

"Thankfully, you're not an animal." In between consciousness, she gave him a peck on his lips. "Good morning. I'm going to sleep now."

With that, she fell asleep. He listened to her even breathing with tenderness. "Good morning, my darling wife."
