Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue novel Chapter 828

Chapter 828 

In the blink of an eye, Julien’s body tilted forward. He swiftly clutched onto Jonah’s sturdy shoulders, finding refuge in the firm hold. 

Responding with quick reflexes, Jonah intervened to prevent Julien from toppling over, firmly securing him with a grip around his waist. 

In that moment, the duo struck a pose reminiscent of a classic romantic scene from a soap opera, leaving Axel, who stood nearby, in utter amazement. 

“Uh, sorry about that.” Julien’s cheeks blushed with embarrassment. 

Having harbored a lot of pent-up anger, Julien found solace in the embrace, his frustration easing. 

“No need to apologize. If anything, we should be sorry,” Jonah asserted without hesitation, effortlessly 

lifting Julien in a princess-style embrace. 

The unexpected move by Jonah caught Julien off guard, causing his heart to pound loudly in his chest. 

Julien recognized his penchant for indulging in earthly pleasures, engaging in flirtation with handsome 

men, and succumbing to temptation after a few drinks. These tendencies were how he had ended up in 

Axel’s hands. 

Yet, his sentiments toward Jonah in this particular instance took a completely different turn. Julien 

couldn’t help it. He raised his arms and embraced Jonah’s neck. 

“What the heck? What’s going on?” 

Alyssa happened to arrive at that moment together with Silas and Sean. 

Everyone was left dumbfounded by the scene before them. 

“Is the person Mr. Jonah holding a man or a woman?” Sean was puzzled. 

Silas was excited and exclaimed, “Wow! Could it be our future sister-in-law?” 

Astonished, Alyssa turned speechless as she observed the scene. 

“You guys, take a closer look. It’s obviously a man!” 

Silas and Sean were taken aback, exclaiming. “A man?” 

Upon closer inspection, it was indeed quite evident. However, he had a slim figure and a face that was 

delicate and effeminate. 

“Well, that excitement was short-lived. I thought a man from our Taylor family was finally getting out of singlehood.” 

Silas sighed with mock disappointment. 

“Why would Jonah hug a man so passionately?” 

“Mr. Lovelace, you’ve had a tough journey,” Alyssa greeted with a polite smile as she approached them. 

“Axel’s hospitality fell short. Allow me to make it up to you.” 

“Are you the Alyssa my aunt often mentions? Julien spoke in a cute tone, acting like a little princess in Jonah’s arms 

“Yes, I am Alyssa,” 

Alyssa remained composed, her beautiful eyes curved into a smile. 

“Mr. Lovelace, you must be hungry and tired after the journey. How about having a meal, showering, and resting for the night? We can discuss things later.”
