Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 752
“Lyse, what’s wrong?” Jameson noted the change in Alyssa’s expression and asked with concern.
She stated, “I’ve never blocked Jasper on my phone. Why is his contact in my blocked list?” Her piercing gaze landed on
Jameson’s innocent face.
“Lyse...”
“Did you do that?” She cut to the chase. “I did not contact anyone except for you tonight. Jasper claimed that he called me
throughout the night but couldn’t reach me because his number was blocked.”
Jameson balled his fists on his knee. There was a glint in his eyes.
She squinted at him and recalled, “I remember that I left my phone when I used the restroom at the
restaurant. Did you take the chance to block his number?”
“Lyse, are you suspecting me now?” Jameson stared at her with innocent-looking bright eyes.
“I am not suspecting you. I am merely stating the truth,” Alyssa countered harshly.
Jameson felt a weight on his chest that nearly crushed him. He began, “Lyse, I shouldn’t have touched your phone, but I didn’t
want him interrupting our date. Do you know how much I’ve suffered for today?
“Yes, I am selfish and can never justify my actions. I’m sorry.”
“This is your last chance,” she declared. After the chain of events that night, she didn’t have the mental capacity to fuss over
Jameson’s action. She added, “What happens between me and Jasper is private. I
do not want anyone poking their noses into our affairs.
“I did not block his contact when we divorced. Even now, I do not want to pull off such a vile and childish
act to cut him off. After all, we might come across each other in business partnerships.
“There might be proof that I haven’t let go of him yet, but what matters is that he is dead to me.”

Jameson, who was heartbroken, suddenly brightened upon hearing her remark. He asked, “Lyse, have you
really gotten over him?”
Alyssa nodded slowly in tears.
“That’s great, Lyse.” Jameson was overcome with joy and struggled to place his hands. “Since you’ve
gotten over him, could you give me a chance?
“I want to be your man. I want to protect you. I might not be a part of your past, but I want to be in your
future.”
Alyssa wheezed in exhaustion, “Jimmy, I told you before that I wasn’t ready for a relationship. I’m beyond tired. I do not want to
love again. Sorry.”
“You don’t have to do anything when you’re with me. Just enjoy being loved,” Jameson pleaded with his eyes gleaming with
hope. He leaned toward her, his hot breaths tickling her.
He continued, “Lyse, let’s give it a go. Try dating me. Give me a chance to treat you right.”
She pressed her lips speechlessly. “A relationship is not an online purchase. There’s no free return policy
within a week of purchase.”
“You don’t have to do anything. I’ll love you and protect you,” Jameson said. He placed his non-injured hand on the car window
above her head. His eyes were filled with tenderness that could drown her.
He professed, “I will always be there for you. If you think I’m worth dating, I’ll be there when you’re ready.” “Jimmy, thanks for
saving me tonight, but please don’t ever put yourself in danger,” she replied.
