Can’t Win Me Back

The frown on Cyrus’ forehead became deeper. At the same time, his gaze got colder and colder.

Cyrus asked, “In other words, you’re asking me to back out?”

Landon’s throat was dry. He was about to answer when Cyrus continued, “Since the time I found out that you were both in love, I positioned myself as a bystander. I was afraid that you’d overthink things, so I even tried to avoid causing trouble. As much as I liked Lauren, I didn’t dare to meet with her.

“You’re both not in a relationship anymore. It’s completely fine with me as I am pursuing her in a normal way. If you still have feelings for her, you can go ahead and profess to her. We can fight for her fair and square. Feel free to do your best to win her back. I will not interfere.
