Can’t Win Me Back

Landon had shamed Preston straightforwardly. Preston was embarrassed.

Preston knew Landon as someone ruthless, careless, and rude. He was someone who was about to become president of their corporation.

Moreover, Cornelius was present with them. Preston assumed that Landon would have practiced some restraint. In the end, he didn’t hold back at all!

As the head of the family, Cornelius wanted to rebuke Landon. But on second thought, he figured that there was nothing wrong with what Landon had said. He wasn’t too fond of the useless bunch that Preston had befriended anyway.

So, he simply cleared his throat in an attempt to break the tension.

Penelope, on the other hand, couldn’t stand it anymore. She frowned and chided, “Landon, how could you speak to your Uncle Preston like that? Don’t be rude!”

Preston chuckled. “Oh, don’t say that to Landon, Penny. He’s just a child in our eyes.” Sylvia Jansen, Preston’s wife, tried to diffuse the situation quickly.

She smiled warmly at Landon and said, “Landon, that’s how Preston usually is. Otherwise, how did he end up with just a few friends? His other friends left because they got mad at him. He wasn’t targeting you specifically. Don’t misunderstand him.”

Landon relaxed his brows. He swiveled the wine glass in his hand. This wasn’t the first time that Preston and Landon had gotten into an argument.
