Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue novel Chapter 2071

A white winter day with fluttering snow was the perfect symbol of purity and romance.

It was Christmas Eve. The time had come for Landon and Lauren's fairytale wedding at faraway Bernardia.

The Becketts' and the Taylors' private planes set off. Both families landed at Bernardia Airport one after the other. Then, via Landon's arrangements, they were transported to a fortress where they would stay.

Landon had booked the entire historic estate for a whole month. The fortress in front was to be used for their wedding reception, whereas the block behind was the accommodation for friends and family.

In other words, if they wanted to stay on to enjoy Bernardia's beautiful scenery after the wedding, they could continue staying there temporarily while they toured around and soaked in the beauty of a foreign land.

This estate was a historic site. Over the last century, it had never been rented out for anyone's private use. This was the first time in history and might also be the last.

To secure the place, Landon had looked up the estate's owner. He humbled himself while offering a price that even his father-in-law, Javier, who was born with a golden spoon, would be astounded to hear!

The night before the wedding, Landon and Javier were taking a walk within the estate.

Landon introduced the buildings' history patiently and seriously to Javier. He knew every inch of the place like the back of his hand, as if this were his family's treasure.

It was as if this estate was his home, and he was an honorable duke born into nobility.

"You're good, Landon! How is it that you know about this place so well?" Javier stared at Landon's charming face in surprise.

"It wasn't easy to rent out this place. Also, this is the one and only time. So, in order to leave this place with good memories, I learned all about it."

Landon's smile was genuine and gentle. His eyes twinkled with a gleam of happiness. "I was thinking that when Lauren and I become old, we can sit together at home and flip through our photo album. I will be able to tell her lots of stories. Wouldn't that be great?"

A lump rose in Javier's throat. He was extremely touched. He remarked, "Thank you, Landon.

"But there's something that I'm really curious about. How did you convince that elderly duke to rent this place to you?"

Landon pursed his lips slightly. "I told him our love story, from when we started dating and how we journeyed until now. He was very touched. It also reminded him of his late wife, who had passed away many years ago. In the end, he decided to allow us to have our wedding here.

"I showed him Lauren's artwork too. He loved it very much and offered to buy it at a high price on the spot. But I didn't want him to pay for it. Instead, I sought Lauren's permission and gifted the painting to him."
