Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue novel Chapter 2254

The room was silent.

Sheryl heard the name "Lyse" clearly. Alarm bells started ringing in her head.

Didn't Justin warn that this type of medication could interfere with a person's emotional processing? It was meant to erase all traces of Jasper's passionate devotion to Alyssa so he would never yearn for the woman he once loved. So why would he mention Alyssa's name now?

Jasper stared at his reflection in the mirror, surprised to see himself standing there alone. He had convinced himself he didn't need anyone else in his life.

Yet, for some strange reason, the moment he said "Lyse", it felt as if a hole had formed in his heart. An echo reverberated through that void, one he couldn't ignore.

He didn't realize that her name echoed because he couldn't forget her.

While Jasper stood lost in thought, soft hands suddenly glided across his broad shoulders and around his neck. A light fragrance drifted to his nose.

Looking down, he met Sheryl's eyes, filled with tenderness. The intensity in his dark gaze dulled immediately.

"It looks like you're not too familiar with tying neckties, Mr. Jasper."

Sheryl traced her fingers gently around his dark gray necktie. In a captivatingly sweet voice, she offered, "Let me help you. Mr. Javier and the others will arrive soon. It won't be nice for them to see you like this."

Even though she was in heels, Jasper was still taller than her. She tiptoed intentionally so that they could lean closer to one another. Their breaths intertwined, and their noses were almost touching.

Jasper frowned slightly. He was about to speak up when heavy footsteps sounded at the door.

He looked up immediately, only to see Julien standing there with an icy look on his face, watching all that was before his eyes. Jasper and Sheryl looked especially intimate from where he stood. They looked as if they were about to kiss.
