Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue novel Chapter 407

Chapter 407 

Landon’s eyes widened at the perfect “couple” in front of his eyes. 

Jasper’s remark was meaningless, but paired with his longing gaze and his deep, hoarse voice, he 

sounded like a man in love. 

After some contemplation, Landon’s perspective shifted. He believed, to be precise, that Jasper was, at most, a man tormented by unrequited love. 

It was a pity Landon didn’t have a phone with him. If not, he would have taken a photo of Jasper’s cheesy expression and showed it to the latter. 

“And it seems you never learn,” Jasper frowned, his eyes simmering with anger as he chastised Landon. 

He continued, “We asked you not to make a move on Lauren, but you kept crossing our lines. Do you think 

it’s unfair to be slapped thrice? 

“I, on the other hand, think that it’s not enough. You should be slapped every time we run into you.” 

We? 

Alyssa felt uneasy at the way Jasper had lumped them together. After all, he had once been a heartless 

man who wanted nothing to do with her. 

“Mr. Beckett, please be careful with your choice of words. You and I are different individuals. Don’t you lump us together,” she warned him coldly and headed quickly for the bedroom. 

She added, “Or else, I’ll take offense.” 

Jasper was left pursing his lips in awkwardness. 

“Pfft! You’ve just failed to earn her favor! You had it coming!” Landon gloated, feeling happy as though his friend’s failure had made up for the slaps he had endured. 

The next second, Landon let out a muffled groan as he was suddenly punched on the abs by Jasper with full force. The impact was so intense it almost forced his soul out of his body. 

Meanwhile, Alyssa hurriedly made her way to the bedroom. It was a short but torturous walk as her mind conjured up unsettling scenarios that might await her behind the bedroom door. 

If Landon had truly tainted Lauren, she vowed to make him pay for it. Not even Jasper could save 

Landon’s ass. 

“Lauren!” Alyssa stood in shock after she burst into the room. The room was quiet, and there was not the mess that she had braced herself for. 

A sweet and cozy scent permeated the air. A bedside lamp shone gently on Lauren’s sleeping face in a crushingly beautiful scene. 

Alyssa tiptoed to the bed and knelt on one knee, her fingers tenderly tracing the curve of Lauren’s warm 

cheek. 

Her chest tightened as her eyes fell upon the teddy bear nestled in Lauren’s arms. Before she knew it, her eyes were brimming with tears. 

Alyssa, who was fearless and faced all challenges with poise, would only break apart when she witnessed 

Lauren’s vulnerability. 

Jasper walked in at that moment and witnessed Alyssa’s tender exchange with Lauren. His shoulders 

trembled, and a lump formed in his throat. 

Alyssa hastily wiped away her tears upon hearing his approaching footsteps. 

The room was dead quiet. Jasper swallowed hard and caressed Alyssa’s damp hair. He urged her, “Blow your hair dry. It’s chilly out there. You’ll catch a cold.” 

“That’s none of your business.” She hastily stood up to avoid any physical contact with him. 

A wave of
