Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2465

Julien's merciless, hate-filled words hit Jonah like a ton of bricks. The pain was unbearable, a gut-wrenching ache that shattered his heart.

Under the dim lighting, Julien vaguely noticed a sorrowful tear forming at the corner of Jonah's eye. But before it could fall, Jonah forced a blink, swallowing his emotions whole.

Despite Jonah's attempt to brace himself, sorrow engulfed him, a tidal wave of despair. His features mirrored the devastation ripping through his heart.

As Evan opened the driver's side door, Julien lurched forward and vomited again. The sickening sound of him retching echoed in the air as if he were expelling everything inside him.

"Judas, Mr. Lovelace looks like he's suffering from alcohol poisoning. We should take him to the hospital."

Evan's worry deepened at Julien's condition.

Jonah wordlessly removed his suit jacket and began cleaning the mess in the car. His chest tightened painfully as he watched Julien groaning, clearly suffering.

Then, without hesitation, he pulled Julien into his arms.

Jonah knew Julien's alcohol tolerance. He wasn't the type to get drunk easily. For him to be this far gone, something must have driven him to the edge.

Something terrible.

"I'm parched… So parched… It's so warm…"

Julien's face burned, his gaze growing unfocused. He breathed a warm sigh that brushed Jonah's skin before his body went slack, sinking into Jonah's hold.

"Evan, what's happening? Julien's burning up!"

Jonah could feel the heat radiating through the skin of Julien's silk shirt.

"Judas, this isn't normal."

Evan, an experienced doctor, studied Julien's dazed expression. A sudden realization dawned on him. "Someone drugged Mr. Lovelace!"

Jonah's mind flashed back to the man who had been shamelessly flirting with Julien earlier. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

His hold on Julien tightened.

Without hesitation, he pulled out his phone. The conversation was short, his voice a clipped stream of venom.

Minutes later, the man who had targeted Julien was dragged through the back exit of the bar and tossed into the grimy alley like refuse. He was soon swallowed by the darkness, his fate left unspoken but brutally clear.

"Judas, Mr. Lovelace is reaching his limit. We need to get him to the hospital immediately!" Evan exclaimed, his expression frantic.
