Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Alyssa burst out laughing. "I can tell that you've really been trying to curb your
urges, Mr. Landon. Jasper is just brushing my hair. I can't believe that your mind wandered elsewhere."
Alyssa stroked her soft hair, which Jasper had helped with maintaining.
"Landon, you don't have to rush the wedding. Just have your marriage with Lauren registered first. It's more important to make the relationship between the both of you as husband and wife official."
Upon hearing that, Jasper was suddenly filled with regret. He observed the expression on Alyssa's face.
Fortunately, she wasn't bothered at all. With a smile on her face, she was engaging in her skincare routine. Her face looked moist, drawing him closer and closer.
"Don't worry. I will definitely be getting that marriage certificate." Landon's voice was full of affection. "In the future, Lauren will be the wife of Harper Group's chairman."
"In the future, Javier will be your father-in-law. You will be able to strut throughout Solana City," Alyssa teased him in a relaxed tone.
"I will not rely on Beckett Group's resources. I will rely on myself to look after Lauren and run Harper Group."
"All you have to do is holler if you need help. Don't try to bear all the burden on your shoulders." Jasper's eyes became deep. "Never ever forget that we are here for you."
Alyssa sat in deep thought for a while. All of a sudden, her eyes lit up. "Since Lauren doesn't want to have a grand wedding, let's organize a simple ceremony -one that is warm and only attended by family members. What do you think?
"I remember seeing northern lights in Lauren's painting. She also told me she'd love to see the northern lights. We can have the wedding at Bernadia. I heard it is one of the countries where the aurora is most beautiful.
"It can be a family-only wedding ceremony. That way, Lauren doesn't have to be troubled by her social anxiety. You can both also spend your honeymoon there right away. It's killing two birds with one stone!"
"The northern lights..." Landon's heart dropped.
He was deeply in love with Lauren. Yet, he had only just found out that she liked the northern lights.
Affectionate love wasn't enough. As a soon-to-be husband, he still had lots to learn. There was much for him to work on in the future.
"I know that it has been quite a trying time recently. Your main job is to manage Harper Group well. You've had to appease the shareholders, stabilize share prices, and prevent conspirers from going through loopholes."
Alyssa lifted her eyes and gazed at Jasper tenderly. She held his hand in hers. "Jasper and I will do all we can to help you with your wedding."
"Thanks for being concerned for Lauren and me, Lyse. When is your wedding with Jasper happening?" Landon asked in a concerned voice.
At this point, Jasper and Alyssa's relationship was as solid as a rock. They did not deem it necessary to have a marriage certificate to prove their love for one another.
However, as a best friend who watched them go through such an arduous journey, Landon sincerely hoped that they would make their relationship as a married couple official. He wanted to see them make up for the things that they had missed out in the past.
At the end of it all, he wanted his best friend to be given an official status!
Even if Alyssa were to abandon him in the far future, whether due to his age or her wanting to find someone younger, Jasper would still be her official husband, his position wouldn't be swayed easily.
He was just planning ahead!
Jasper gulped. He tightened his grip on the brush.
"We'll marry Lauren off first. There's no rush with the matters between Jasper and me."
After the call with Landon ended, Alyssa realized that Jasper had not made a single sound behind her.
She crossed her legs and tapped her foot in the air. Her pink, soft slipper dangled from the tips of her toes.
There was a gleam in her eyes. She squinted and asked, "Why did you stop, Jasper? What are you thinking about?"
"I was thinking about why your hair is so silky." Jasper picked up Alyssa's hair with his hand and brushed it absent-mindedly.
His voice was raspy and low. He did not even realize how alluring the restraint in his voice was.
Alyssa clicked her tongue. "You're lying, Jasper."
She kicked him lightly on the leg of his pants. She smiled. "Did you hear what Landon said earlier?"
"I did."
"Don't you want to make it official for yourself?" Through his white shirt, Alyssa gave him a poke on his firm abs.

He said, "Please make it official with me, Ms. Alyssa.
The look in Alyssa's eyes became deep. She showed no change in her
expression.
She maintained her cool even in front of Jasper.
He panicked. His Adam's apple bobbed. Then, he added, "I don't mind even if
you prefer polyandry."
