Can’t Win Me Back

“Lauren, what in the world are you saying?” Jasper, who was usually calm and composed, reacted in shock. He placed his hands heavily on her shoulders.

“Marriage is not child’s play. This is a matter of your lifelong happiness!

“Do you not know what kind of person Freddy is? Did you not see how he was acting intimately with Zoe? Aren’t you worried that this might be a plot from Zoe to mess with you and Landon?”

Lauren let him shake her shoulders as tears rolled in her eyes along with the shaking.

“Did you really fall out of love with Landon? Look into my eyes and tell me. do you really not love Landon anymore?” Jasper’s brows knitted together tightly as he bombarded her with questions.

“Jasper, I’m a grown woman. I’m no longer the child who locked herself in her room all day, not daring to speak to anyone. I’m no longer the girl whose only companions were drawing blocks and dolls.”

Lauren’s voice was soft, but her resolve was firm. “I know what I’m doing; I know what I want.”

Jasper’s voice trembled. “Is marrying Freddy what you want?”

“Since I can’t be with Landon anymore, who I marry doesn’t matter.”

“Who said that you can’t be together with him? He loves you so much that he can give up everything! As long as you don’t give up…”

“Jasper, I’m tired.”

Lauren’s face sank as she shook her head lifelessly. “If Landon betrayed his family and gave up his inheritance for me. I would never be able to live with this guilt. Even if I stayed with him, I would not feel happy.

“But if I don’t marry into the Hodgson family, I fear I will not have a day of peace.

I’m scared. I’m even more scared that I’ll bring trouble to Landon and hurt Angelina.
