Winston inhaled sharply. Steam was almost coming out of his ears!
Angelina was not someone who was easily amused. But watching Winston and Cyrus bicker almost made her smile. They looked like such a loving and harmonious father-son duo.
Then, they heard the sound of footsteps approaching.
Lauren was carrying a tray. Carefully, she walked up to Winston and placed the teacups on the table.
"Mr. Taylor, please have some tea."
Lauren's voice was gentle. As Winston watched her adorable face, he couldn't help but feel like doting on her.
He smiled and said in a warm tone, "Oh? Hello, Lauren. I didn't expect to see you here. Are you here to keep Alyssa company?"
"I… I… Yes." Lauren flushed red with shyness. She wasn't dumb. She knew she couldn't answer by saying she was cohabiting with Landon. So, she could only give an awkward, perfunctory reply.
"Anyway, that's not important!" Winston beamed with joy. He pulled Lauren closer to him and looked at her closely. "You aren't attached yet, are you? What do you think about my youngest son here?
"You're both about the same age, and opposites attract. I'm sure that you will both get along very well."
It was as if Cyrus was struck by lightning. He was so surprised that he spat out the tea he was drinking.
"I… I…" Lauren was frightened. She took a step back immediately and clasped her hands together. She started rubbing her hands together until her skin turned red.
When it came to his personal life, Cyrus was careless. However, as a Criminal Investigator, he had remarkable observational skills. He was able to perceive that Lauren's reaction was unnatural.
It was as if she was overly introverted. On top of that, she had severe social anxiety.
She was biting down so hard on her lip that they almost bled. She looked like she was on the verge of crying.

The readers' comments on the novel: Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
I am trying to figure out why an author writes one page and it is suppose to be a chapter and then the author gets the audience hooked on the story and just drags it on. Follow the rules please, and at least give the 7 chapters daily. Two chapters every other day is a waste of time. Or just release the book and give us the option to buy it....
Ughhh…can we get more pleeeease! I’m so into this book and literally check daily for updates but it’s only two pages at most. Can you at least do 4 pages a night 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽...
More chapters please the 7 chapters/day would be nice, TY...
Where can i download the remaining chapters?...
Why are we literally only getting one chapter a day?!? I mean can we at least get 4 or something? Irritating🙄...
Hello, more chapters please. It has been over 1 week since we have received 7 chapters. Thank you...
