Simon wasn't going to humiliate himself all for a woman.
As he watched Sean and Tatiana's figures fade into the distance, he recalled how furious Sean had looked when he snatched her away.
Suddenly realizing something, a cunning grin rose on Simon's face. "If you can be Winston's godson, why can't I be his son-in-law?"
…
Sean brought Tatiana back to her room, slamming the door behind them.
She moaned weakly before collapsing on the couch. The earlier commotion had swiftly shattered her sobriety.
Upon witnessing her profound discomfort, Sean's initial upset rapidly faded away.
"You know you can't drink that much. Why did you do it anyway?"
He sighed and shook his head, quickly filling up a glass of water for her. "Here, drink this."
"No, I don't want." Tatiana turned away from him. "Go away. I want to be alone."
"At least sleep on the bed. You'll catch a cold here."
"I said go away! Why don't you go bother Alyssa instead?" Tatiana shouted, curled up into a ball.
Sean's heart throbbed with pain.
He then pulled Tatiana up into his arms and carried her into her bedroom.
"Argh! Let me go, Sean!" Tatiana cried, her heart beginning to pound. Her velvet slippers fell away as she struggled in his arms, revealing her bare feet.
The moment Sean noticed them, he immediately felt like he was doing something forbidden. His heartbeat grew erratic, and his throat dry.
The evening ended in an unceremonious tone due to Simon's presence. The Lynch family had driven over via three separate vehicles.
Before they left, Spencer said crossly, "Sit with me, Simon. We need to talk. Sean, go with your mother."
Simon pursed his lips but did not refute.
Sean, meanwhile, sat in the backseat of their car with his mother while Steven sat in the front passenger seat.
Sinead noticed the flush on Sean's face and his uneven breathing. Worried, she asked, "Are you alright, dear? Do you have a fever?"
"Hm? What did you say, Mom?" Sean asked, distracted. He still hadn't recovered from that kiss earlier.
"Your face is so red, dude." Steven looked at his brother from the rearview mirror. "You know, my face was exactly that color when I had my first kiss."
"Shut up." Sean scowled, blushing further. "Don't worry about me, Mom. I'm alright."

The readers' comments on the novel: Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
Please give us a proper ending. I can't believe that we reached as far as chapter 2483 and the story is still hanging. We would love at least for Alyssa and Jasper to be reunited without hassles....
Can u post more chapters as promised for 7 chapters a day. Enjoyed the story very much. Hope all is well and thank you in advance....
HI. I am stuck on 2454 for over 3 months now. Will there be any more chapters or we just have to stop waiting for it and forget about this book....
seems to have come to a halt useless...
Where are the chapters please ? Over a week no updates....
Just tell me where to purchase the book I definitely will buy it...
Need more chapters please...
It’s dwindled down to 1 page a day??...
7 chapters a day would be great...
I am trying to figure out why an author writes one page and it is suppose to be a chapter and then the author gets the audience hooked on the story and just drags it on. Follow the rules please, and at least give the 7 chapters daily. Two chapters every other day is a waste of time. Or just release the book and give us the option to buy it....
