Can't Win Me Back

"I'm sorry, Dad," Jonah furrowed his eyebrows and smiled awkwardly.

"Jonah, Julien, when are you having your wedding?" Everyone grew excited upon hearing Silas' question.

The atmosphere became lively again.

"I don't need a wedding. Jonah has given me the perfect proposal."

Julien's eyes twinkled like the stars. He gazed deeply into Jonah's eyes. "I feel very happy. This is all I need."

Jonah Taylor and Julien Lovelace, a match made in heaven.

They were now married.

...

Happy times always flew by.

Landon and Lauren remained at the estate to begin their long honeymoon together. One by one, the others returned to Solana City and Belbanks.

As for Yuliana, she was quick-witted. She bid everyone goodbye and followed Miley back to Kontina. She never even glanced back at Liam as she left the estate.

What she heard that night blew her mind. It made her feel like she was struck by lightning.

When she thought about the possibility that their royal family had something to do with the misfortune that befell Jennifer, she no longer had the courage to face the man she loved. She left looking dejected, like a withered flower.

Alyssa observed all these quietly. Then, she glanced toward Liam, who left in low spirits. She felt terrible.

Love was enchanting but also heartbreaking.

Despite only spending a few short days together, Alyssa had acknowledged Yuliana as a sweet younger sister. She even considered going to Kontina with Jasper once the troubles in Solana City were resolved.

With Miley and Jeremy's help, she might be able to see Yuliana again. More importantly, she wanted to visit her mother's homeland and try her best to find clues about her.

...

Alyssa and Jasper rested for two days after returning to Solana City. Then, they threw themselves back into work, preparing for the coming battle.

Even while in Bernardia, they had people closely monitoring the situation back home. They hadn't slacked off for a moment.

Alyssa spent the entire day leading meetings with the corporation's higher-ups. In the evening, she was reviewing and signing documents in her office when Sean knocked and entered.

"How are things going?" she asked immediately.

"Your prediction was right, Ms. Alyssa. After Mr. Beckett met with Chief Novak privately the previous time, his lifestyle changed drastically!" Sean spoke a mile a minute. His gaze was fiery.

Alyssa let out a soft sigh. She lifted her eyes and glanced at him as if she were looking at a fool. "I wasn't asking about you. I was asking about Taty and the baby. How are they?"

Sean was stunned. Immediately after, his face turned red.

He sputtered, "Ah, yes. Y-Yesterday, I accompanied Taty to the hospital for a checkup. The baby just reached eight weeks old. It's very healthy."

"You're really daft. I can't believe you just found out when Taty has already been pregnant for two months."

Alyssa couldn't help but roll her eyes at him. "Good thing I noticed Taty throwing up secretly and discovered she was pregnant. Otherwise, as her belly grows, you might think you've just been feeding her well."

"It was all my fault. I deserve to be punished." Sean felt horrible. He really wished that he could slap himself. In hindsight, he thought he would let Tatiana punish him when he got home.

"Even though the baby is already eight weeks old, you cannot take it lightly. You have to pay attention to the finest of details. Don't let Taty bump into things or fall down. You have to pay attention, especially to her nutrition. Okay?" Alyssa reminded him.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

"Definitely, definitely. Please don't worry, Ms. Alyssa. Taty and the baby are my everything!" Sean promised with a joyous glow on his face.

Alyssa's lashes fluttered slightly. She lowered her eyes and spaced out for a moment.

Two months...

When she lost her child back then, she had also carried it for two months before it left her forever.

The thought brought a painful cramp to her stomach.

Then, she perked herself up. With a firm look in her eyes, she said, "You mentioned Chief Novak earlier. Tell me more."
