Can’t Win Me Back

A white winter day with fluttering snow was the perfect symbol of purity and romance.

It was Christmas Eve.

The time had come for Landon and Lauren's fairytale wedding at faraway Bernardia.

The Becketts' and the Taylors’ private planes set off.

Both families landed at Bernardia Airport one after the other.

Then, via Landon's arrangements, they were transported to a fortress where they would stay.

Landon had booked the entire historic estate for a whole month.

The fortress in front was to be used for their wedding reception, whereas the block behind was the accommodation for friends and family.

In other words, if they wanted to stay on to enjoy Bernardia's beautiful scenery after the wedding, they could continue staying there temporarily while they toured around and soaked in the beauty of a foreign land.

This estate was a historic site.

Over the last century, it had never been rented out for anyone's private use.

This was the first time in history and might also be the last.

To secure the place, Landon had looked up the estate's owner.

He humbled himself while offering a price that even his father-in- law, Javier, who was born with a golden spoon, would be astounded to hear! The night before the wedding, Landon and Javier were taking a walk within the estate.

Landon introduced the buildings' history patiently and seriously to Javier.

He knew every inch of the place like the back of his hand, as if this were his family's treasure.

It was as if this estate was his home, and he was an honorable duke born into nobility.
