Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 1061
When Landon touched Lauren’s slender back, he realized sweat had soaked through her clothes. His eyes contracted, and his
heart
seemed to sink, making it difficult to breathe.
He had forced her too much. He shouldn’t have let her dwell on the painful past, always thinking about revenge.
Landon didn’t want to let her beloved Lauren do anything. He decided to handle everything.
“Is... your sister bullying you?” Javier suddenly asked. His question pierced Lauren’s trembling heart like a sharp arrow.
She lowered her head and ruffled the folds of her skirt in silence.
“Is it true? Has Betty been bullying you all along? Tell me. I’ll stand up for you.”
“Dad, you know Lauren’s situation. She’s not like Ms. Betty, who can sweet-talk and please you. Sometimes, Lauren is too kind
and doesn’t want to make things awkward with her family.
“So, she can only live cautiously, silently enduring all the humiliation.”
Landon couldn’t bear to watch any longer. With a cool gaze, he said, ” It has been so many years. Pursuing this matter is
meaningless. Moreover, aren’t both parties important to you?”
In this speech, he didn’t say anything bad about Betty, but it was just the same as calling her out.
Javier’s face turned extremely dark, and he clenched the palm on his knee tightly.
Landon slowly helped Lauren up. His arm naturally slid down to her
“The past is in the past. I won’t pursue it for your sake.
“But from now on, it’s different. Since I’m dating Lauren, I’ll be in charge of everything for her. If anyone dares to touch her, no
matter who they are, I’ll make them pay a bloody price.”
After Landon led Lauren away, the atmosphere in the study became extremely tense. Javier could feel the chilling atmosphere in
the air, which was accompanied by an overwhelming sense of oppression.

“So... Landon also knows that Betty has been bullying Lauren?”
Javier looked at Rory in bewilderment, his heart tightening. He found it difficult to accept for a moment.
“I accidentally overheard the servants at home mention it. Everyone knows about it. Everyone except me? As their father, I didn’t
know?”
Rory sighed. “Don’t blame yourself, Mr. Javier. You need to manage. such a large household and a big company. It’s
understandable that you might overlook some things.”
This statement was basically an admission.
With his elbows on the desk, Javier painfully held his head in his hands. “I really feel ashamed before Lauren as her father. I had
no idea she was so unhappy at home...”
“But everything has passed, Mr. Javier. Now, with Mr. Landon taking good care of Ms. Lauren, you can rest assured,” Rory said
with at
solemn tone.
“Ms. Lauren is also grown up. She’s not a child anymore. You can’t keep her confined at home, preventing her from socializing
and interacting with society. This won’t benefit her condition.
“And haven’t you noticed? Ms. Lauren has been happier and more
Javier nodded.

Even he didn’t know how long it had been since he had seen Lauren smile so brightly. It was evident that Landon was truly good
to her, and she genuinely felt happiness from the bottom of her heart.
“I’ve spoiled Betty too much. She’s Lauren’s sister. How could she do this?”
Javier thought of the innocent and adorable Betty from childhood and felt heartbroken at the current situation.

“Mr. Javier, you should understand the principle of ‘one who keeps company with the wolf will learn to howl,” Rory pointed out.
Javier’s eyes turned deep, and his jawline tightened.
