Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 761
“Well, I can only trust your word, future first lady of Kontina!” Alyssa teased Miley.
“Ms. Alyssa, you’re home!” Sean rushed out from the kitchen, looking dapper in his suit. However, he was covered in some flour.
“Sean, are you cooking?” Alyssa inquired curiously.
“Yes. Madam Lyla and Tatiana are in the kitchen. I’m helping out,” Sean replied with an awkward and troubled expression.
“What? Is Lyla cooking in the kitchen?” Mandy gasped and stood up. “Why didn’t anyone stop her? She fainted this morning!”
Alyssa’s heart sank upon learning that. “Did Lyla faint earlier today? Let me check on her.”
Meanwhile, Tatiana was helping Lyla in the kitchen. Lyla looked pale, which made Tatiana worry.
She asked Lyla, “Mom, are you okay?”
“I’m fine. I’ll have to rush. It’s almost dinnertime. I don’t want to leave everyone hungry,” Lyla mumbled while speedily cutting the
vegetables. Suddenly, a gasp escaped her lips.
Tatiana panicked and nearly cried when she saw what had happened. “Mom, you cut your finger! It’s bleeding!”
Alyssa and Sean arrived at the kitchen just in time. Alyssa immediately ordered, “Sean, get the first-aid kit from my room. Lyla
needs some stitches because her wound is pretty deep.”
“Yes, Ms. Alyssa!” Sean hurriedly brought the first-aid kit. Alyssa expertly took care of Lyla’s wound.
Tatiana was shocked at Alyssa’s medical expertise. Nothing seemed impossible for the multi-talented
Alyssa.
In contrast, Tatiana felt useless and small. She couldn’t even do anything when her mom was bullied and
nearly attacked. She fought to hold back her tears at the thought.
Sean leaned over and placed a comforting hand on Tatiana’s trembling shoulder. Feeling sorry for her, he reassured her, “Ms.
Tatiana, don’t worry. Ms. Alyssa is around to help. Madam Lyla made a lot of dishes.

Let’s set the table now.”
Tatiana sensed that Alyssa needed a private chat with Lyla. So, she wiped away her tears and followed
Sean out of the kitchen.
+15 BONUS “Lyla, don’t worry. I won’t let this slip after all that happened to you,” Alyssa said to Lyla while bandaging the wound.
“Oh, Lyse, I appreciate the sentiment, but you don’t have to do anything for me. I’m fine!” Lyla hurriedly stopped her, looking
fazed and lost.
“20 years ago, she might have bullied you without a concern. But her attempt to pull the same trick now will land her in hot
water,” Alyssa said while inhaling deeply.
She kept her anger in check and added, “If that woman wants to play with fire, I will make sure she is
scorched.”
Lyla suddenly snapped back to reality and grabbed Alyssa’s hand while panting hard. “Lyse, do you know
who was behind the attack?”
“Yes. At this point, I believe you know as well.” Alyssa’s eyes were filled with pain. “You should have told
Winston about it. He would have taken action on your behalf. No man would sit back and watch his wife
bullied.”
“Lyse, I do not want any revenge. I just want our family to live in peace,” Lyla confessed. Tears rolled
down her cheeks. She looked breathtakingly dazzling at that moment.
