Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue novel Chapter 863

Chapter 863 

Two figures emerged from the lounge. They were Sophia’s assistant and a maid. Alyssa hurriedly hid behind the pillar with Julien and peeked at them. 

The maid grumbled in a hushed voice, “What’s wrong with Madam Sophia? She’s been acting weird lately.” 

“Right? She was fine when she arrived. But she suddenly felt cold and asked for a jacket. When I handed 

it to her, she scolded me for giving her a thick jacket because she felt hot,” the assistant said, looking 

grumpy. 

“That’s not all. She’s been alternating between feeling cold and hot, and her appetite has increased!” the 

maid added. 

She then checked her surroundings before cautiously whispering, “Once, I found her in the kitchen by the 

fridge past midnight, shoving cake in her face!” 

“That’s impossible! She doesn’t take desserts to maintain her figure.” 

“God knows? She kept stuffing her mouth with cake. I was so terrified to see that.” 

Alyssa and Julien overheard the conversation and frowned at the same time. 

The maid inched closer to the assistant and lowered her voice, “Say, is Madam Sophia having an affair?” 

The assistant, looking petrified, poked the maid and warned, “Hold your tongue if you want to be safe. We 

are childhood friends, so it’s fine to tell me, but you can’t let anyone else know about it! Got it?” 

“Fine. Is she having an affair, though?” the maid pressed on, undeterred. 

“I don’t know the details, but I do know she often goes to the plastic surgery clinic for touch-ups. She’s 

been close to the young doctor, but you can’t claim she’s having an affair from that.” 

The two women disappeared after walking through a door. 

Alyssa, who overheard the conversation, fell into deep thought. Julien rubbed his chin in frustration and 

said, “Hmm… Sounds weird.” 

“You think so too?” 

“Eating disorders, fluctuations in body temperature, and mood swings-these sound like symptoms of a drug addict in recovery,” Julien suggested. 

Snickering, Alyssa made a call with her back to Julien. 

Soon, a man picked up, sounding polite. “Ms. Alyssa, you finally reached out to me.” 

“Yes, Tristan. It’s been a while. How are you doing?” she greeted him and initiated small talk. 

“Thanks to you, my clinic is doing well. I’m fine.” 

Tristan McAllister was an excellent plastic surgeon raised in a poor family. He was accepted to the 

University of Solana as a top student. Due to his family’s financial situation, he nearly gave up on his 

studies after his father passed away early and his mother fell ill. 

Winston created an education fund with the university and named it after Alyssa. Alyssa picked Tristan 

among the many applicants as a beneficiary. 

Their relationship was beyond a benefactor and a beneficiary. Over the years, even if Alyssa might not have met him often, she kept in touch with him, keeping herself updated about his studies and life.
