Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

"Dr. Lovelace is a renowned neurologist in Mosgravia. I specifically brought him to Solana City to treat the aftereffects for you."
"Go back. I don't need it," Jasper replied, looking down. He refused outright.
"Jasper, do you think I'm negotiating with you?" Alyssa's eyes widened.
"Do you think I'm negotiating with you, Alyssa?"
Jasper locked eyes with Alyssa. His gaze appeared chillingly indifferent, as if veiled by a layer of ice. "My affairs have nothing to
do with you. You don't need to care."
"You ... !"
"If you want to continue attending the party, move to the banquet hall. If you only came to talk to me about this, leave with your
people."
After saying that, Jasper turned and left expressionlessly without any hesitation or delay.
He acted as if he and Alyssa had never met.
"Asshole! Do you want to die?" Alyssa shouted at his retreating figure, but he didn't stop.
"Jasper! Stop right there! Jasper!"
Jasper gradually walked away, his figure disappearing into the night.
Meanwhile, Alyssa stood there dumbfounded, letting the cold wind hit her body. She felt the chill seeping through every pore,
permeating her entire being.
A tremendous sense of loss crawled up her calves. It was intricate and unavoidable.
"Someone once offered me 100 million to treat them, and I didn't agree. Now, I've presented myself in front of this Mr. Beckett,

"Yeah, that's what I thought. I just didn't want to say it."
Julien quietly watched her trembling figure. Suddenly, he asked, "Hey, do you still love him?"
Alyssa's heart felt like it had been pricked with a needle. She clenched her fingers and asked, "What are you talking about?"
"I'm asking if you still love Jasper."
"What is it to you?"
"You still love him," Julien smirked. "You didn't directly answer my question. That's the answer."
"Julien, given the circumstances, I might as well tell you."
Alyssa turned to face him, speaking each word deliberately. "I once loved him deeply. I even thought my heart could beat for him
forever. Even if he didn't love me, I thought I could follow him for a lifetime.
"But now, what I feel more for him is guilt. I don't want to owe him anything, that's all."
With that, she waved her hand with a carefree smile and walked forward. "Let the past go with time."
Julien's heart shook at her words, and his smile gradually froze.
He didn't believe in true love. But if she encountered it, he deeply respected it.
Meanwhile, in the underground parking lot ...
