Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 707
“The spy you planted in Taylor General Hospital has some new updates.
News of Jasper regaining consciousness quickly reached the Beckett family. Newton and Javier hurrie
to the hospital.
Upon seeing Jasper, Newton broke down, hugged him, and fought back tears. He moaned, “Oh, my deal
grandson, you’re giving me a heart attack!”
“Grandpa, I’m so sorry for worrying you,” Jasper replied. He felt sorry for Newton.
“How do you feel? Do you still have a headache? Where does it hurt?”
Newton refrained from touching Jasper’s head when he thought about the major surgery to stitch
Jasper’s head. Right now, Newton was more careful with Jasper than with himself.
“I’m doing fine,” Jasper reassured Newton, Knowing what was on Newton’s mind, Jasper grabbed his
hand to touch his own head. ‘Feel my head. Isn’t it pretty solid?”
“Oh, you idiot!” Newton teased him. He gently and cautiously touched Jasper’s head with a wide grin.
Javier was there to visit Jasper as well. His relationship with Jasper could be described as awkward.
Javier had lost sleep when Jasper was in a coma, but he put on a sour face when Jasper was awake.
Javier always struggled to say anything nice to Jasper.
Newton patted Jasper’s cheek. He felt scared when he recalled the perilous situation, and he warned Jasper, “You’d better not
give me another scare! I know you were protecting Alice, but you shouldn’t have.
exposed yourself to danger.
“It’s normal to want to be good to your woman, but you need to be healthy and strong to protect her. You

don’t want to turn into ashes before you win her over.”
Javier and Jasper were dumbfounded by Newton’s remark. Jasper cleared his throat and said, “Grandpa, can’t you say
something more encouraging? Why the talk about death right after I’ve woken up?”
“Sigh. You know what I mean. Right, my grandson?” Then, Newton whispered into Jasper’s ears as if sharing a top secret. “Let
me tell you a secret- your wife is extraordinary.”
Jasper blushed at the mention of “wife”.
Newton revealed, “She was your surgeon. It took her ten hours to remove all the blood clots in your brain!”
“Lyse was my surgeon?” Jasper was stunned.
“It’s a shock, isn’t it? I never expected Alyssa to be the renowned ‘Dr. White.’ Goodness, what do we do now? She’s an
incredible woman. Now, I worry that she’s out of your league,” Newton punctuated his
worry with a sigh.
After the initial shock, Jasper looked determined. “I will try my best to be a successful man who can protect her and make her
happy.”
“Pfft. She’ll consider herself lucky if you don’t end up causing her more problems, Javier scoffed when he was reminded of his
loss. “Back then, I advised you to stick with the marriage, but you insisted on divorcing Alyssa to date Liana. It’s too late now.”
Jasper frowned. He wanted to retort, only for Newton to cut him off. Newton blasted Javier Tsk, why are you getting grumpier the
older you are? Why bring up Liana?
Jasper might not be perfect, but he did leave that toxic relationship, unlike some who are still infatuated with the wrong person.
You are in no place to lecture him when you can’t even get it right.”
“Dad, how could you- Javier was incensed. His phone suddenly buzzed, interrupting the argument.
Javier checked his phone and instantly brightened. Justin had called him from abroad.
