Can’t Win Me Back

"A love rival?" Alyssa rested her cheek on her palm while feeding Jasper blueberries. She mused, "It's quite unfathomable for Landon Harper to have a love rival. That's new."

Jasper snickered. "Lauren's living a secluded life because you're overprotective. She doesn't have a chance to meet with anyone outside—it's just you and your secretary. She doesn't even have a healthy social life, so what's all that talk about a love rival? You must be dreaming."

"Isn't that right?" Landon slammed a fist on the table as his voice broke from the tension.

He recalled the scene from last night where Lauren mumbled the name of this guy, Cyrus, while sleeping in his arms. How could she call out the name of another man in her dreams?

His heart immediately shattered into pieces.

Alyssa shot him a piercing glance. "Do you mean my brother, Cyrus Taylor?"

Jasper froze. He grappled with the far-fetched notion, struggling to imagine Lauren and Cyrus together.

Landon widened his eyes, looking amazed. "Oh, Lyse, how did you know? Are you God?"

"Hah, drop it." Feeling speechless, she told him, "You're an open book—I can tell from your face. I saw you standing across from Cyrus yesterday, staring at him fiercely, and I immediately knew something was wrong.

"But Mr. Harper, you shouldn't look down on the gentlemen of the Taylor family. None of them would ever get involved with unavailable women. You shouldn't imagine him as a love rival just because he spoke to Lauren."

"Cyrus isn't that type of man. Landon, you shouldn't even suspect Lyse's family to start with." Jasper hugged Alyssa by the waist as he pondered the absurdity of Landon's accusation.
