Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Axel retorted, “Otherwise, which other bastards would I be talking about?”
Axel then took a cigarette and placed it between his lips. Rage was evident on his face as he remarked,
I’m not sure what Lyse is thinking. She is divorced already. And that bastard’s name has been dragged
through the mud. Why is she wasting so much effort to attend to his medical condition? Let him rot and
die.”
“Just think of her as rescuing a stray dog, then. Don’t take this too personally, Silas comforted him.
“Huh? Do you think Julien will treat this bastard?”
“I think he might. Lyse always gets the job done.”
“Okay. I hardly get to come back. Now that I am here, I can’t leave empty-handed.”
Axel took a long drag of his cigarette. His eyes lit up with a blazing fire. He exhaled a ring of smoke. “Why
don’t I sneak into that bastard’s operating room and
He slid his hand across his neck as he spoke.
Caught off guard, Silas shuddered. Shocked, he said, “Don’t you dare act recklessly. If you touch even an
inch of Jasper’s hair, Solana City will rumble. Don’t make things difficult for Lyse or even Dad!”
“Haha, I’m just messing with you.”
Axel patted Silas on the shoulder and headed toward the crowded dance floor.
He had too much to drink tonight, so he had to sober up.
As he reached the sea of people on the dance floor, a wave of depression swept over him. The added discomfort of the smoke’s
stench, a shared disdain with Alyssa, Intensified his unease. Consequently, he

decided to step outside for some fresh air.
The mesmerizing lights, the enticing rhythm of the music, and the sight of attractive girls dancing flirtatiously collectively
heightened the atmosphere on the dance floor.
With a cigarette in his mouth, Axel danced skin-to-skin with beautiful ladies he did not know.
He was good at dancing, but his dance moves were obscene. No one could tell him and a hooligan apart
if it weren’t for his good looks.
Abruptly, Axel was captivated by a scent that sent his mind into a frenzy. Even with alcohol already coursing through his system,
the fragrance left him bewildered and stunned.
A delicate woman fell into his embrace in the blink of an eye. He instinctively grabbed the woman’s slim
waist, and their bodies melted together instantly.
That fragrance was to die for, and the woman felt soft.
Under the dazzling lights, Axel opened his eyes slightly and looked at the woman in his embrace.
What the heck?
It was as if lightning had struck him. The fingers caressing the woman’s back turned instantly numb.
“L-Lyse?”
No, that didn’t seem right.
She wasn’t Alyssa. Alyssa didn’t have a mole above her eyebrow. Plus, Alyssa never wore sweet-scented
perfume.
Suddenly, Axel’s pupils constricted as his flashbacks of Mosgravia appeared in his mind. Then, he
shouted, “It’s you!”
It was the woman he met once when he was in a foreign country! This woman had been unforgettable.

“Hmm, do you know me, handsome? I don’t think I know you.”
Amber was drunk and blurry-eyed. She hooked her arms to the back of Axel’s neck. Her warm breath
landed on his Adam’s apple. “But I kind of dig the way you hit on me.”
