Can’t Win Me Back

Chapter 397

An eerie hush filled the air of another luxury lounge despite the deafening music reverberating from beyond its walls.

Dressed in black from head to toe, Landon had left his silk shirt partly unbuttoned, exposing a glinting silver necklace that swayed in rhythm with his breath.

Landon took a languid sip from his red wine and crossed his slender legs.

He casually brushed away a drop of red wine in the corner of his lip with his fingertip. He looked leisurely and even insolent, but his eyes were an icy, unfathomable depth.

A row of men stood in the lounge. Landon downed the red wine and snapped his fingers. His bodyguards split into two lines and revealed a badly beaten man on the floor who was tied up.

“M-Mr. Harper, it’s my fault. Please.” After losing a few teeth to the beating, the man spoke with a lisp. Drool mixed with blood fell from his mouth.

‘Tsk. Your blood is all over the floor.” Landon shot him a disdainful look and arched a brow, questioning,” Do you know how expensive is the carpet in this room? You can’t even pay for it with the money from selling your organs.”

“Mr. Harper! The man crawled up to Landon but was kicked away. He professed, “I’ve served you loyally for
