Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1556

"Finally," Jasper whispered.

Alyssa smiled. "Yes, finally."

"Landon, Jasper told me you've already informed Mr. Cornelius of your intention to marry Lauren. Is that right?" Newton questioned with a serious look on his face.

Landon answered immediately, "I didn't just inform my grandfather. I've announced it to my entire family. Grandpa has agreed. My mother didn't oppose either."

Alyssa and Jasper shot a look at each other. They understood what they were each thinking about.

They knew that Landon was sharing only the good news. The process of convincing Cornelius must have been a difficult one.

At the same time, he wouldn't have cared about whether Penelope approved of them. She wasn't the one who had the final say in their family.

"Ah… That's good, then."

Newton nodded. He was pleased. He chuckled in relief, "Please arrange a time for me to meet with Mr. Cornelius soon. We should meet since both families have now approved of this marriage.

"If it's okay with you, I will consult a fortune teller to decide on an auspicious date. We can first have an engagement ceremony. Then, both our families shall be forging a marriage alliance formally."

Landon was overjoyed to hear the word "engagement". Lauren leaned on him. She was blushing shyly. Tears of happiness filled her eyes.

As they were happily discussing, they completely ignored Javier, who was the head of the Beckett family. All of a sudden, he had a flashback of a memory from 30 years ago.

Back then, Newton and Chester were as thick as thieves. They shared endless conversation topics between them.

Javier, on the other hand, was unable to fit in with them. He was like an outsider. He simply sat by the side on his own. It was as if he was invisible.

Newton really doted on Chester. Unfortunately, Chester died at a young age. Had he not, the Beckett Group wouldn't have ended up under Javier.

Newton's appearance here was timely. Without wasting any time, he had Landon and Lauren's marriage almost all planned out.

Now, Lauren was rightfully known as his fiancée. Landon was so glad that he was jumping with joy like a playful child.
