Cyrus' casual description of Landon made the tension around them rise to the roof.
Landon's eyes shot wide open, and his entire body tensed up!
How could he describe him like that?
He hadn't been away from his home for too long. During that time, Cyrus had already come to create chaos in his house?
Alyssa and Jasper had heard the ruckus at the door. They walked on over.
"Cyrus? You're still here?" Alyssa, sharp-minded, noticed the standoff between Cyrus and Landon, shooting them a suspicious look.
"Oh, I wasn't too sure how to open this door. Mr. Landon came back just in time and opened the door for me. I'll be leaving now."
Cyrus looked back and smiled brightly at Alyssa, as if nothing had just happened. "Once this busy period is over, I will take you out to have some fun. You shouldn't be stuck living with this man every day. How boring is that."
Jasper stayed silent. As much as he knew that Cyrus was kidding, Jasper couldn't help but feel jealous again.
Even after Cyrus left, Landon was still unable to calm himself down. Alarm bells were going off in his head.
He couldn't shake off the thought that Cyrus had met Lauren while he was away from home. He also speculated that they had a significant amount of interaction.
"What's wrong, Landon? You don't look too good," Jasper asked out of concern.
"I'm fine," replied Landon. He exhaled heavily.
Alyssa was sharp. Instantly, she had perceived that Landon was bothered. She initiated an apology to him.
"I was the one who asked Cyrus to bring some documents to me here. I'm sorry for not informing you in advance. You are best friends with Jasper, but I understand that this is still the home that you share with Lauren.
"I am just here as a guest. It was thoughtless of me to invite an outsider into your home. I promise it won't happen again."
Jasper was startled. He put his arm around her waist and quickly explained on behalf of Landon, "You're overthinking it, Lyse. Landon is not such a petty person."
Landon widened his eyes and waved his hand. "Alyssa, don't say that!

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🙄...
