Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue novel Chapter 1352

"Did you just learn about it? How could you date me without knowing anything about my family? Hm?" Alyssa playfully flicked Jasper on the forehead and remarked, "All of my stepmothers hail from pretty unusual families."

Jasper flashed her a wry smile. He turned numb upon learning about Alyssa's family background. Never would he have associated Colene with the Ivory Gang leader.

"Lyse, you can't blame him. Marc has never exposed Colene's identity to anyone aside from a few confidantes and the gang members," Jonah interjected.

He addressed Jasper in a much friendlier manner because he was in a great mood after dealing with Simon Lynch. "The underworld is dangerous. He had to do so to protect his only daughter."

Jasper smiled, feeling touched by Jonah's amicability. Jonah might appear cold and distant on the outside, but he was warm inside, just like Jasper.

"Yeah, that's right. Marc detested Winston for marrying her precious daughter and even threatened to cut ties with Colene over the marriage, but I know that, deep down, he cares for Colene a lot." Alyssa nodded knowingly.

Then, she sighed with a tinge of regret. "I heard that the texture of feces is similar to that of a sweet potato. Too bad Simon Lynch had left, or I would have confirmed with him. I'm pretty curious about it, though!"

Jasper, Jonah, and Julien were left speechless at her words.

…

Although dawn had not arrived, Sean was wide awake. He had experienced a rollercoaster of feelings the night before.

Before Alyssa's arrival, he had been labeled as a helpless suspect. But now, Gabe Barrett had released him with an ingratiating smile and kind words while inviting him to leave the cell.
