Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 812
David’s driver perished at the scene, and the badly injured bodyguard seated in the front passenger seat
battled for his life in the emergency room.
Fortunately, as David was seated in the back, he suffered facial injuries from the glass shards after the
front collision. Despite bleeding from the head, he survived the accident.
However, a comminuted fracture in his legs left him permanently crippled.
Victor enlisted experts from across the country to treat David, but none could successfully rehabilitate
David’s legs.
One day, the Schmidts sat in their living room-a heavy feeling hung in the air. Daisy sobbed
uncontrollably, but it was unclear if her grief was genuine.
She wailed, “Why did this happen? David used that road often, and it was a straight road. How did he get
into an accident?”
Everyone was moody. Only Jameson crossed his legs and sipped on his tea, unconcerned. He remarked
nonchalantly, “The frequency of using a road doesn’t reduce your chances of getting into an accident.
They are unrelated, Daisy.”
Daisy dabbed away her tears with her hanky and shot him a moody glare. She accused, “You seem quite
happy after David’s accident. Why? Has your wish finally come true?”
He placed the teacup on the table and adjusted his glasses. “No, I’m not happy. I’m just emotionally
stable, unlike you. David isn’t dead, but you cry like you’re at his funeral.”
“You-” she stammered, enraged by his taunt.

“That’s enough! Can’t you guys ever stop squabbling? You’ve been doing that forever. Daisy, David is suffering. You haven’t
thought of a solution. You’re only busy causing trouble. Do you want to see our family in a mess?” David growled and slapped on
the arm of his chair.
Daisy quivered at Victor’s rage and stopped crying, only glowering at Jameson. 2
After moments of thinking, Jameson slowly suggested, “Dad, I have a solution. Why don’t we give it a try? We might save
David’s legs.”
All eyes were on him. Victor’s eyes brightened with hope. He leaned forward eagerly and urged Jameson, Tell me now!”
“Lyse has another identity-she’s an excellent surgeon. Before this, she successfully performed a difficult
“You’re Lauren’s sister, after all. So, I’ll need your help to make the marriage work, especially when I’m not in the position to act,”
Zoe said with a sly smile.
She added, “My family runs a business empire, and we’re influential. If we were an ordinary family, knowing Landon, he wouldn’t
give up on Lauren at all. The only way to crush his hope is to marry off Lauren to another influential family like the Hodgsons.”
What a devious plan!
Betty snapped and sweated after tugging on her facial injury, “I remember how you treated me after I helped you out. You nearly
sent me to prison! Why would I help you now?”
Zoe drawled, “I’m your future sister-in-law. It’s important to get on my good side. Besides, you must be upset at Lauren for
snatching Landon from you. No one else except for me can take revenge for you.”
Betty was stunned by Zoe’s plan. Tears of anger welled up as she clenched her fists, recalling how badly
Angelina had beaten her up.
She seethed silently, “Landon Harper, I love you deeply, but you treat me like an animal. I can only give
you a taste of your own medicine by taking away your most precious possession.”
With that in mind, she told Zoe, “Tell me what you plan to do.”

Jasper and Zoe’s scandal plunged the Becketts and the Harpers into turmoil.
The Schmidts also faced their own troubles, with David Schmidt having recently been in a car accident of
his way home from a gathering with friends on a rainy night.
