Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1739

All of a sudden, Landon was no longer motivated to go to work. As he kissed Lauren's moist lips, he lifted his hand to tug at his tie.

"Don't…" Lauren panted softly. She grabbed his hand and said, "It's already tied. Don't ruin it. Wait until you come home…"

"Okay. Compensate me when I come back tonight then," Landon whispered in her ear in a sultry voice.

Lauren blushed. She nodded shyly.

Angelina had prepared breakfast. It was almost time, but she only stayed standing by the door. She knew that it was best that she didn't bother them.

She could hear the sound of flirtatious remarks coming from the room. She lifted the corners of her lips into a slight smile.

Landon always stuck close to Lauren until the very last moment before he left the house.

"Here's a small gift for you, darling."

Landon picked Lauren up and placed her on the chair in front of the vanity table. Then, he opened the rectangular jewelry box.

"Ah… It's beautiful!" Lauren gasped as she laid her eyes on the gleam of the hair clip made of clear quartz.

"I know that you don't fancy jewelry. You've never worn any of the many jewelry that I've bought for you previously. But I hope that you'll use this. Let me put it on for you."

Landon stood behind her. He picked up her long, smooth hair. He used the method Angelina taught him and put her hair up rather clumsily.

For Lauren's sake, he had gone above and beyond, doing things he had never imagined himself doing before. Yet, he still felt like he was greatly indebted to her. All these were far from enough.

A moment later, Landon was done putting her hair up. He then clipped her hair up with the quartz hair clip.

The clear quartz itself was splendid, but Lauren was even more dazzling. Her skin was fair as snow, and her eyes twinkled. At that moment, no other treasure in the world could compare to her.

"Lauren, do you know what it means for a man to do up another woman's hair?" Landon lowered his body and spoke tenderly. "It means that you are my wife. You are a married woman now, Lauren."

A warm ray of light came through the window, illuminating Lauren's glowy cheeks. Her eyelashes fluttered, and her ears turned red.
