Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

The brutality of Newton's words certainly shouldn't be underestimated. He dealt
Javier a mighty blow. As Javier's father, Newton was the only one who could give
him a dressing-down.
Betty hid behind Javier. She was as timid as a mouse. She didn't even dare to
show her face.
Alyssa hurried over to Lauren. She was still in Landon's arms. She said to her
softly, "Don't be afraid, Lauren. I'm here. Jasper and Grandpa are here too."
Lauren looked up. Her eyes were already swollen from all the crying. Landon's
shirt was also drenched in her tears.
"Alyssa..."
Alyssa teared up at the way Lauren called her name. Her heart ached for her.
Lauren choked back on her tears. She clung to Landon's shirt tightly. "I do not
want to be separated from Landon."
At that moment, Landon's heart wrenched. He enveloped her tightly, as if he
intended to engulf her with his embrace.
"We're not going to be separated, Lauren. I will not leave you no matter what
happens."
Alyssa didn't know what to say at that moment. It broke her heart to see them like
that.
Lauren reminded Alyssa of herself. She recalled when Winston grounded her
within the confines of their home and how she had leaped out of the window that
stormy night, running out like a mad woman to look for Jasper back then.
At that time, Jasper also had her in his arms. She had also uttered the same
words over and over. She, too, had said she didn't want to be separated from
him.
The only difference was that she was luckier than Lauren.
When Winston spoke harshly, his words often lacked true intent. At the end of the
day, he would give in and compromise. He did so because of his love for his
daughter, Alyssa.
On the contrary, Javier was a different man. He was selfish. He acted in his own
self-interest. Would he really be considerate toward Lauren?
Nothing was more important to him than his pride and the benefits of the Beckett
Group. Even family wasn't as important as these.
"I don't want to waste my time talking to you. You've never obeyed me! I'm here
today to give Landon and Lauren my support!"
Newton stared at Javier with a frigid gaze. "Didn't you say that you would never
agree to their marriage,
even if you were to go to hell? You can surely go to hell, then!"
"Dad! What... What are you saying?"
Javier was fuming. His eyes became bloodshot. He blurted an absurd reply, "l am
alive and well. What am I going to hell for?"
"You're right. A man like you is alive and well. Why would you go to hell?
Moreover, you are the valuable chairman of the Beckett Group. You put in so
much effort to force me into my retirement. Could you bear to see yourself go to
hell?"
Javier scoffed. "I see that you're not willing to die. Then, don't you bet your life to
threaten the young ones!

Javier's world started to spin. He grabbed onto the handrail. The veins on the
back of his palm were popping. He clenched his teeth tightly.

He received his fair share of reproach
coming from Newton over all these

years. It wasn't surprising for Newton
to reprimand him with harsh words in
private. Even so, he never took them
to heart. The content is on

Nonetheless, there were so many people around this time. His own children,
Alyssa, and Landon were all present. Newton didn't just embarrass him. He had
pretty much humiliated him.
All of a sudden, a thought occurred to Betty—how could Newton have known
about their conversation with Landon earlier? Didn't he just get here?
As a matter of fact, Newton's car had pulled outside Seaview Manor half an hour
ago.

In the car, Jasper and Alyssa were
seated across from Newton. They
watched as Alyssa showed off her
skills to Newton. She hacked into the

"It's done, Grandpa." Alyssa presented the laptop to Newton.
"You've got it?" Newton looked at her in surprise.
