Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue novel Chapter 769

Chapter 769 

Javier and Sophia were home at Seaview Manor. He was checking the news on his phone with a sour 

expression. 

Despite enlisting the top PR team in the nation to handle the scandal between Jasper and Zoe, online 

discussions showed no signs of abating. 

As the president of the Beckett Group, Jasper’s reluctance to make a public appearance or issue a 

statement only fueled speculations, tarnishing his reputation. 

Meanwhile, Sophia sat at the dresser, applying hair care products to the long locks she had invested time 

and money in over the years. 

Back in the day when she slept with Javier to advance her career, Javier loved caressing her smooth and 

silky hair during their intimacy. 

“Come here, Javier,” she commanded, turning around to gesture at him. 

“What’s the matter?” Javier replied, never once looking away from his phone. 

“Come over. Touch my hair. I’ve been taking good care of them every day for you,” she purred with a 

seductive twinkle in her eyes. “Touch it and let me know if it still feels the same as before.” 

“Sophie,” he began, only to pause. He couldn’t bring himself to ask her if she was behind the attack on 

Lyla. 

Instead, he changed the subject. “Landon confessed to me and Dad about his love for Lauren.” 

“What? When was that?” Sophia asked, standing up with a dumbstruck expression. 

“He told us when he visited Jasper in the hospital with Lauren.” 

Sophia clapped her hands joyfully. “That’s good news. Gosh! What does Dad think about it? He’s watched 

Landon grow up, and we are close family friends with the Harpers. We also share the same social status. 

I assume he’s supportive, isn’t he?” 

“You were busy matchmaking Betty and Landon before this and never paid attention to Lauren’s matters. Why did you suddenly support the relationship?” questioned Javier coldly. 

Sophia’s mind raced. She explained, “Javier, you make it sound like I don’t care about Lauren at all. She’s my daughter. Of course, I care for her. 

“Well, too bad Betty and Landon are incompatible. They’re not meant to be. If Landon is interested in 

good family.” 

“Lauren might be dating Landon, but they haven’t made it public. There’s still a chance to turn things around,” Javier opined. “Things will only get messy if they make their relationship public.” 

“Javier, what do you mean? Do you not want Lauren to marry Landon?” Sophia asked worriedly. 

“Mrs. Harper visited our place to discuss Jasper and Zoe’s marriage, but she went home empty-handed without getting to meet with Jasper. Didn’t you see her expression when she left? She was so resentful. 

“Landon is her only son. After what happened between Jasper and Zoe, she couldn’t possibly agree to the marriage between Landon and Lauren,” argued Javier while impatiently rubbing his forehead. 

Sophia was taken aback. She replayed the scene and recalled Penelope’s look of rage, realizing that 

Lauren might have lost her chance of marrying into the distinguished Harper family. 

No. All wasn’t lost yet!
