Chapter 159
Alyssa said. “Let’s do another one.”
“But you promised to do me a lavor!” Landon frowned like a little brat.
“Ireally can’t agree to that.” Alyssa put on a serious face. I promised Grandpa to show up as his daughter–in–law for the birthday. I will have nothing to do with the Beckett Family after that.
“I’m afraid I’ll only upset him if I show up to his birthday with a male partner. It’s my wish to grant him a memorable 80th birthday. I don’t have much time with him, anyway
A tinge of wistfulness crept into her eyes.
“Alice, you’re a lovely woman. Jasper lost out on you because he’s blind” Landon sighed.
Upon second thought, he wouldn’t have had a chance with Alice had it not been for Jasper’s mistake. Jasper’s loss was Landon’s gain–a chance at love and happiness!
“That’s why I wanted us to do another one.” She caressed the sculpture with much affection,
“How about you call me by my name? ‘Mr. Harper sounds too formal.” He blinked earnestly
“Is that it? My favors don’t come around often, you know.”
“I’m thankful enough that you invited me to dinner!” He gazed at her affectionately and grasped at every chance to charm her
“Shall I call you Landon from now on?” she asked.
“Great! Landon it is.” He was shaking in happiness, thinking their relationship had reached a new level. In his eyes, Alyssa addressing him by his first name was akin to her calling him “darling.”
“Dinner’s ready.” Sean approached them with an apron on his waist. He was gentle to Alyssa but hostile to Landon, “I made his sandwich
too. With extra blue cheese.”
He imagined Landon’s stinking breath with much glee.
“Alice, you might not be comfortable around a male nanny. We have a Madam Russell who has worked for us for fifteen years. Should I send her to work for you instead? She’s efficient, hardworking, and a great cook. I grew up eating her food.” Landon gave Sean a side–eve
with a smug and victorious look.
Sean almost tore his apron from rage. Landon didn’t seem to know his place!
“I grew up with Sean. He’ll be under me.” Eyes darkening, Alyssa warned him in a low voice. “You like meddling in others business, don’t
“Wait for me in the dining hall. I’ll put the sculpture away and join you there.”

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...
Just wonder what happened to publish 7 chap/day...
You upload shows 5/21/24 01:20, but I read these chapters 5/20/24 9:26. you can't go back with time only forward...
