Can't Win Me Back Chapter 2272
Even though Alyssa's head was in a muddle, she continued mumbling Julien's name as she cried and begged him not to leave. How could there be such a foolish woman? Leaning against Remy's chest, Alyssa groaned in pain. Her tears soaked through his shirt. The warm sensation dispersed the endless wintriness in his chest. "Lyse…" Remy blurted her nickname in a clear voice. Yet, Alyssa had lost consciousness and did not hear him. Remy held tight to an injured Alyssa as he trodded toward his vehicle. He uttered her name in his heart once again. For some reason, a pain throbbed in his head. Intense emotions surged in his chest. He had never had this feeling before, and it was challenging for him to hold those emotions back. Remy gritted his teeth as he watched the woman in his arms, who was bruised all over and bleeding from her head. At the same time, his heart felt like it was about to shatter and end up a bloody mess. …Just like in Kontina, after Remy intercepted Alyssa,

After Remy sent an unconscious Alyssa to the hospital, she was taken into the emergency room immediately. She was still slightly conscious before she went in there, albeit hazily. She felt herself being lifted by the man in black leather shoes and carried all the way to the hospital entrance until she arrived at the emergency room. The cold bearing around him felt so familiar to her. However, she was suffering so much pain that she kept slipping in and out of consciousness. She didn't have it in her to think about anything else. While she was going through the nerve-racking emergency treatments, she had a dream. Or rather than a dream, it was more like her mind replayed everything that had happened from the time she was on Rose Island until now. Those bits and pieces of information that seemed unrelated strung together in her mind once again. For some reason, she felt that Julien's departure was just the beginning. She certainly couldn't allow anyone around her to be hurt

"I won't call you that next time if you don't like me doing so. But I was really just worried about you and hoping that you would be able to regain consciousness as soon as possible." Alyssa smiled coldly at him. She was broad-minded and had never been bothered by these trivial matters. "Justin, what brings you here?" Alyssa's entire body hurt. She tried to get up but failed to do so. "Don't move." Justin held her down. In a low voice, he urged, "The doctor said that you were very lucky. Even though you didn't have any broken bones, you have quite a number of external injuries. Plus, you might have suffered some level of concussion. "These are not to be overlooked. You have to stay in the hospital to recuperate and be under observation for a while." With a sharp gaze, Alyssa insisted, "You haven't answered my question." Justin pressed his lips together slightly. He answered calmly, "My private physician, Ms. Gillis, lives in a villa nearby. When I came to visit her, I sudde

"Lyse!" Alyssa's father, Winston, rushed into the hospital ward. With him were his three wives, Jonah, and Silas. At first, a pregnant Tatiana also made a fuss about coming over to visit Alyssa. However, everyone else forced her to stay home and had Sean look after her. Everyone's jaws dropped when they witnessed Justin holding Alyssa in his arms. The room was dead silent. "Dad…" Alyssa muttered. There was a quiver in her teary eyes. She struggled slightly in Justin's arms but could not pull away from him. Her face flushed red in embarrassment as she couldn't budge, making them look even more like a shy couple. Justin curled his lips upward slightly. In a relaxed manner, he got to his feet from his wheelchair and lowered Alyssa back onto the bed. Then, he tucked her in caringly. Everyone shot astonished looks at one another. Even though the Taylors were based in Belbanks, their status as one of the wealthiest families meant that they were familiar with the news about up

Alyssa would no longer hear that soft yet firm voice saying, "Don't be afraid, Lyse. I'm right here." "You're such a brat! You're already 26. When can I stop worrying about you?" Winston exclaimed in a rough and stern voice. Out of his love for Alyssa, even an experienced leader like him was on the brink of tears. "Jonah, Lyse's driving skills are outstanding. How did she end up in a car accident?" Silas's voice tensed as his heart filled with concern. He looked toward a pale-looking Jonah. "I heard that she was on the way to the airport. The weather for the past few nights had been terrible. Why was she going to the airport on her own?" Jonah's eyelashes were moist. He felt like his heart had been pierced, and he was deeply aggrieved. Silas noticed how terrible Jonah looked. Immediately, he questioned, "Jonah, what's wrong?" "Lyse was going to the airport to chase after Julien," Jonah answered numbly. The back of his throat was filled with a sharp, bloody taste. Silas w

Sheryl's words came like a bolt from the blue, catching the Taylors off guard. Alyssa shuddered. She curled her scabbed fingers around her blanket into a tight grip. "Say what… Jasper and my daughter have broken up?" Shock filled Winston's eyes. He couldn't believe his ears. Sheryl confirmed, "That's right. Your sons know about this too. Though, it seems like you were truly unaware." Lyla was on the verge of tears. She shook her head continuously. "That's impossible… Why would they…"Mandy trembled. She widened her eyes in disbelief. "They broke up? Why did they break up out of the blue? They share such a good relationship. How is that possible?" Sheryl blinked. A hint of maliciousness lurked in her eyes. "You shouldn't be asking me this. You should ask Mr. Jasper because from what we heard, he was the one who wanted to break up—""Break up my foot! He would never do that to Lyse even if someone pointed a gun at his head!" Colene blew her top and flew into a rage. She p

However, what was Alyssa going to do? Winston loved Alyssa the most. She was naturally someone who gave her all when it came to love. In this life, she had chosen Jasper. She wouldn't be able to get over this relationship. Yet, Jasper was no longer in love with her. It was devastating for the person who remained, abandoned in the end.Just then, a nurse knocked on the door and entered the room. "Mr. Beckett, it's time for your checkup." "Alright, I'll head over now." Sheryl held onto the handle of Justin's wheelchair with both hands while Justin excused himself politely. He said to Winston, "Mr. Winston, I'm sure that you have a lot to talk about with Ms. Alyssa. I shall give you both some space. The medical standards at this hospital are quite high. Also, I've arranged for several surgeons to come by tomorrow. They'll examine Ms. Alyssa first thing in the morning."If you can't trust them, you may also transfer her to another hospital. I can help you connect with people. T

Mandy's emotional cry reverberated down the hallway.Naturally, Remy heard her voice too. He was slightly stunned. His eyes met the teary-eyed, middle-aged woman standing a few feet away from him. For some reason, his heart felt heavy. Even breathing stirred up some unfathomable feelings within him. It felt just like that heavy feeling he had when he watched Alyssa, injured all over, crawling out from her car that had flipped over. "Damien… Is that you? Damien!" Even though Mandy was always a noble and composed person, her face was covered in tears at this very moment. She choked with sobs and had lost her composure. "Damien… It's me, your mom! You're still alive… I can't believe that you're still alive!" Mom?Dumbfounded, Remy stared at the woman who was approaching him. It was as if someone had put his heart on pause. His slender fingers quivered slightly as he pinched a cigarette in between his fingers. In the next second, the splitting pain in his head pulled him ba

In the evening, Xavier drove Jasper to meet with Newton. Along the way, news broke out that Sheryl had been bailed out. Xavier slammed his fist against the steering wheel. "Damn it! Why is it so hard to get rid of that woman?" "She is Justin's right hand," Jasper said, eyes shut as he leaned back in his seat. His jaw tightened. "You could even say she knows more about his secrets than anyone. As long as she's useful, Justin won't discard her so easily. This is how he operates."Xavier shook his head, teeth gritted. "Where the hell did she even come from? When you had me investigate her, I found nothing. Her background was spotless. "What's in her past that Justin would go so far to keep it hidden? A man like him can have any woman he wants, yet he clings to her—some pretty-faced idiot who only seems to make things harder for him."Jasper's gaze turned glacial. Xavier's casual remark struck him.He was right. Justin wasn't short on capable subordinates. So why Sheryl?Was Sh

This time, the injection did not bring the excruciating pain that once made Amber wish for death. Her chapped lips trembled, and tears streamed down her face as she gazed deeply into Remy's eyes. He, too, looked at her, his expression unreadable yet intense. Between them, no words were needed."Damien… Thank you…" Though her voice was barely audible, the weight of her words sank deep into Remy's heart. For once, he did not object to being called Damien.The truth was, ever since Amber had been taken, an unbearable pressure had settled over him, making each breath feel like a punishment—every day since had been plagued by self-reproach and regret.If he hadn't stopped her that night and let her go sooner, could she have avoided Sheryl? Could she have been spared the torture and humiliation?"You should know that those who enter this place never leave. Most don't even make it out alive."Remy's gaze was unwavering. Taking advantage of the surveillance blind spot, he placed his

"Mr. Lexington," the doctor greeted respectfully, lowering his head slightly. Everyone at the base knew who Sheryl and Remy were. They were the ones in charge, the decision-makers. So, everyone obeyed their orders without question. To the staff unaware of the facility's true purpose, Sheryl and Remy stood at the pinnacle of the hierarchy. Unbeknownst to them, someone more powerful lurked in the shadows."How has she been these past few days?" Remy asked, his expression unreadable."She's had some adverse reactions, but there are no signs of organ failure yet. Honestly, I'm surprised. She looks frail, but her body is incredibly resilient—stronger than some men, even."The doctor scoffed. "But I'm not sure if she'll make it past her fourth injection today. Last month, four test subjects didn't survive beyond that point. Their bodies have already been sent to the incinerator." Remy's jaw tensed. His voice was husky as he said, "As I've instructed, this woman must be kept alive.

Xavier seethed as he took in the insincere smile on Justin's face. Deep down, he was cursing him with every profanity imaginable. "Whatever makes you happy."Ignoring Justin's dark gaze, Jasper kept his eyes fixed ahead as he strode past him.Out of nowhere, Justin chuckled and asked, "Did you really think you had people on your side during the board meeting?"Jasper halted, his eyes narrowing. "Grandpa tried his best to shield you, but his health is failing by the day. How much longer do you think an old man can protect you?"Lowering his gaze, Justin idly adjusted the ruby cufflinks on his sleeves. His voice was casual yet cutting. "And Lyse—after how ruthlessly you discarded her, do you still believe she'll stand by you no matter what? That she'll fight alongside you like before?"The intense midday sun accentuated the sharp, aloof, and pallid features of Jasper's face as he stood, unyielding, in its glare. His pulse quickened. Finally, he answered, his voice a low rasp. "R

As the board meeting concluded, the crowd gradually dispersed.News of Justin securing his position as president and Alyssa joining the board quickly spread through Beckett Group.After the meeting, Alyssa escorted Newton back to Crescent Bay while Jasper remained at the corporation to handle some matters.With Xavier accompanying him, Jasper strode toward the chairman's office, his expression cold and unreadable.Nearby, a few employees huddled together, whispering."Psst! Do you think Alyssa joining the board means she's teaming up with Jasper to take down our new president?""People have been saying they broke up since they haven't been seen together for a while," another speculated."But at the press conference, Alyssa openly condemned Mr. Justin. That looked like she was siding with Jasper. So, are they still together or not?""Come on, to people like them, personal feelings don't matter—only their own interests do. Even if they broke up, they can still work together if it

When Jonah reached the bedside, he leaned in slowly, giving Julien an unobstructed view of his tanned skin, well-defined abs, and that devastatingly captivating face. Reclining against the headboard, Julien found himself lost in Jonah's eyes. His breath hitched, and his mind momentarily blanked as Jonah's mesmerizing gaze locked onto him. What could he do? His heart still betrayed him, a frantic drumbeat against his ribs. He was a fool—a pathetic fool. Jonah braced his arms on either side of Julien's head, his dark eyes overflowing with a raw, possessive affection. It was as if he sought to consume Julien—just as he had last night."Julien, does it still hurt—" "Fuck you!" Julien's bloodshot eyes blazed as he swung his hand, landing a sharp slap across Jonah's face. The illusion of his frailty shattered. A crimson handprint bloomed on Jonah's cheek in a split second, the flesh puffing up visibly. But the sting barely registered. Not when the ache in Jonah's chest was alr

Justin frowned as a hint of surprise flashed across his dark eyes. He had assumed Newton's unannounced appearance at the board meeting—along with Alyssa's involvement—was a coordinated effort with Jasper to overthrow him as president. After mentally running through hundreds of countermeasures, the one possibility he hadn't considered was that everything would proceed smoothly in his favor. Javier was equally stunned, though this outcome aligned with his desires. Today, Justin wasn't merely his son but a constant shadow looming over him, a silent predator watching his every move and reminding him that his past actions weren't completely buried. Instead, this secret loomed like a ticking time bomb that could detonate at any moment, obliterating everything he'd built. And the person holding the detonator was Justin—his eldest son whom he had trusted above all others. With a dim gaze, Javier watched Justin rise to his feet amid the applause. Suddenly, Justin's voice seemed distant,

Justin curled his lips into a smirk, scoffing in silence. Newton had gone to great lengths to bring Alyssa into Beckett Group. This was his way of decentralizing power and keeping it in check, and he wanted to prevent Justin from having complete control. Unlike others, Javier couldn't hold himself back. He blew his top instantly, his face turning red like a tomato. "Dad, have you lost your mind? Don't you know who she is? She is KS Group's president—our direct competitor!"KS Group is also bidding for Project A5. No matter how much you favor her, you should at least recognize the limits. If you promote her, it's a blatant conflict of interest—outright cronyism!" Newton sneered. "I might understand your concern if I were promoting someone other than Alyssa."His gaze hardened. "Cronyism? A conflict of interest? I wonder who you're really talking about."With those words, he cast a knowing, enigmatic glance at Justin's blank expression. Just then, a board member from Javier's

Despite his age, Newton exuded the same energy and sharpness he had in his younger days, even when surrounded by the board members brimming with vigor. Despite his quiet presence in the wheelchair, an intimidating atmosphere clung to him. In an instant, Javier was transported back to the days when he worked under Newton's strict supervision."Good day, Mr. Javier and all fellow board members. I assume no one has any objections to my presence at this meeting?"Newton's gaze swept across the room, a perfunctory smile gracing his lips."Of course not. You are part of the corporation's board of directors!" the members responded immediately.Newton nodded. "Much has happened within the corporation lately. Our shares have been fluctuating amid the controversy. "As you all know, I had intended to retire after dedicating most of my life to this company. I wanted to step aside for the younger generation rather than hover over them like a specter, micromanaging everything. "However,
