Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1323

"Did you mean that?"

Cyrus jumped. He turned around immediately. He hadn't realized that Lauren was behind him. She was hugging a brown fluffy teddy tightly and looking at him sheepishly.

Lauren looked adorable to him at that moment.

Cyrus's gaze became slightly deeper. He laughed light-heartedly and answered in a warm tone, "Of course I meant it. Did you paint this?"

"Yeah, I did." Lauren nodded.

"You must have put a lot of thought and emotions into it. It took quite a bit of effort, didn't it?"

"Mm… That's alright. The most important thing is that Landon likes it."

Lauren's eyes lit up at the mention of Landon. She smiled sweetly, and her face blushed pink.

"Landon treats me very well. There is not much I can give him, so I just did this painting as a gift. I'm glad that he likes it."

Cyrus' heart skipped a beat.

Throughout all these years of being a police officer, he was always immersed in the dark side of the world. Every day, he fought fiercely with countless abominable devils.

It had been a very long time since he had seen such pure eyes.

The woman in front of him was just like the clear moonlight. Inconspicuously, she had lit up his dull and gloomy heart.

Lauren noticed that he had his gaze fixed on her. She blinked and looked at him with a confused look on her face. "Mr. Cyrus?"

Cyrus snapped out of his thoughts. The corner of his lip curled upward.

He said, "I remember the time from Lyla's birthday party when you addressed Lyse as Alyssa. So, there's no need to bother with formalities. Call me Cyrus, just like Alyssa does."

"Cyrus?" Lauren was compliant. She addressed him exactly how he asked her to.

Cyrus smiled with his dashing eyes. He was about to reply when a cold voice sounded.
