Can't Win Me Back

As soon as Jasper finished speaking, a sharp scream came from the restaurant.

Landon suddenly remembered that Vanessa was still in there. She definitely wouldn’t sit still. Letting her stay in the same place with Alyssa alone would surely lead to trouble!

“Jasper, something has happened! I’ve got to gol And I can only meet with you tomorrow!”

Just as Landon was about to end the call, Jasper asked, “Where are you?” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

At this time, another piercing exclamation came through. It was way harsher than the first.

“At the Trivedian restaurant in KS World Hotel!” After saying that, Landon immediately headed back to the restaurant.

The moment he pushed open the door, he was shocked by what was happening before his eyes.

Alyssa was grabbing Vanessa by the hair with her left hand. Her right hand was forcefully pressing her head down onto the table. Meanwhile, Vanessa couldn’t move at all as both of her wrists were shackled by Alyssa’s other hand.

This simply looked like the scene of a smart female police officer arresting a criminal!

At first, Landon was worried that Alyssa would get the short end of the stick. Now it seemed like his worry was unnecessary. Instead of Intervening to stop the fight, he crossed his arms and watched with a smile on his lips.

“I’m going to sue you and make sure that you can’t survive in Solana!” Vanessa’s face had contorted under Alyssa’s pressure. But she was still not giving in.

“Hurry up, then. Otherwise, when my handprint on your face disappears, you won’t be able to do it anymore.”

Alyssa remained expressionless throughout the entire time. If Vanessa hadn’t wanted to attack her, Alyssa wouldn’t even want to touch

her.

When Vanessa saw Landon was back, she immediately cried for help. “M–Mr. Harper, help me!”

“Okay, okay. It’s enough…” Landon approached them and pulled Alyssa away. His voice didn’t have any hints of reproach at all. In fact, it sounded like he was coaxing her.

He didn’t think such a scene was a big deal. After all, he had had four women fighting over him in the middle of the street before.

It was just that Alyssa was his best friend’s ex–wife. Hence, it might not be good for Jasper if this news were to spread.

“Mr. Harper! What do you mean by that? This bitch has beaten me up! She slapped me in the face and even tugged at my hair! Look at what I have become! You have to seek justice for me!” Vanessa was so infuriated that it seemed like she was on the verge of getting crazy.

Alyssa sat calmly in her chair, crossing her legs as she watched the unkempt woman before her.

Landon ran his eyes down her legs in admiration and stopped at her fair and delicate feet adorned in high heels.

“Damn, how can she be so beautiful?” he muttered in his heart.

“You must have offended Ms. White, which was why she hit you. Apologize to her now,” Landon said, fixing his stare on Alyssa.

“I… Why should I apologize to her?” Vanessa’s face reddened with fury.

“Because you like me, and Ms. White doesn’t. So Ms. White can’t possibly look for trouble with you,” Landon replied.

Alyssa arched her brows. “He’s quite smart, much better than Jasper,” she thought.

“How can you do this to me, Mr. Harper? I’m your girlfriend!”

Vanessa rushed over to Landon in tears and wanted to hug him. However, Landon took a step back in disdain, causing her to almost lose

her balance.

“Girlfriend? Who said so?” Landon shot Vanessa a frosty gaze, sending a shiver down her spine. “Quickly apologize to Ms. White and buzz off. Don’t ever let me see you again.”

would seem like doomsday was approaching.

“I–I’m sorry!” Vanessa squeezed out the words through gritted teeth. Then, she fled the scene while covering her face in shame.

“I’m sorry to have caused you inconvenience, Ms. White,” Landon said, returning to his previous demeanor.

“You’ve made her apologize to me. It’s settled.” Alyssa spared a glance at her watch and stood up from her seat. “It’s time for me to get back to work. Take care, Mr. Harper.”

Landon was a watch collector. He immediately noticed Alyssa was wearing a global limited edition of Richard Mille!

“Looks like Jonah treats her well. I don’t think I’ll be willing to give this to her,” he thought.

He felt that Alyssa was simply an ignorant country bumpkin for wearing such a luxurious watch for laborious work.

“What time are you getting off work today, Ms. White? I’ll pick you up at night,” Landon said, catching up with her.
