Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 507

"And who might this be, Alice?" Elijah turned to Sean.

"Oh! He-He's my cousin." Alyssa quickly made a white lie.

The park rangers were largely oblivious to how things were transpiring in Solana City, given their focus was on the park itself. Naturally, they had no idea of her identity as Alyssa Taylor.

"Your family has quite the genetics. Even your cousin appears to be a fine man!" Elias praised.

Sean blushed happily. He could accept that instead of "boyfriend".

"The weather's been peculiar of late, Alice. A storm might spring up on us when we least expect it," Elijah said worriedly. "I'm truly glad you could pay me a visit today, but you don't need to come up into the mountains with us."

"I don't mind. Did you forget? I got a community award for helping people up there before. They even called me a living Mountain Goddess!" Alyssa said proudly, thumping her chest.

"Hahaha! How blessed we are to have two great individuals in our midst!" Elijah chuckled fondly.

Alyssa cocked her head. "Oh? Is there someone else I should know about?"

"Yes! His name is Jasper Beckett, from the Beckett Group!" Elias cried excitedly.

Alyssa and fellow "cousin" Sean shot one another a look. "What?"

"Mr. Beckett from the Beckett Group! Isn't that amazing? What a surprise, right?"

Elias' eyes were wide with admiration as he waxed on, "I only knew his true identity two years ago. You'd never expect a rich, refined man like him would be able to hike so well!

"When he went up the mountains with Mr. Forrest two years ago, he saved two hikers who got off the trail due to a thunderstorm. They were calling him the 'Mountain God' at that time!"

"This mountain's only big enough for one god," Alyssa grumbled to herself.

Like her, he'd revisited this park all these years.

Surprisingly, neither of them ever met one another during their visits.

Alyssa tightened her grip around her backpack, her lips thinning slightly.

It seemed like they really were never meant to be.

Any fate between them had run out in that incident 13 years ago, and everything else afterward was nothing but a figment of her fervent imagination.

They soon reached the foot of the mountain.

Just then, several park rangers ran over to them, yelling, "Mr. Forrest! We just got a signal for help from two hikers! One of their friends is still stuck on the mountain. We're just about to go on a search!"
