Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1796

A voice, raspy and weak, sliced through the air behind Landon and Jordan.

They both turned around immediately. To their surprise, they saw Angelina on crutches a distance away from them. She was limping toward them with much difficulty.

Landon's pupils constricted.

"Ms. Angie! What happened to you?" Jordan's face ran pale in fright. He rushed forward to support her.

Angelina tried her best to bear with the pain. She shook her head slightly. "I'm fine…"

"What do you mean you're fine? Your leg is badly injured. How can you bandage it up so simply? What if your wound gets infected? You might become handicapped!" Jordan's heart ached for her. He was on the brink of tears.

When they were young, Jordan and Angelina met at training camp. No explanation was needed for how close they were.

"That's not important. The most important thing is that Madam Lauren… Madam…" Angelina felt so terrible that she couldn't string her sentences together.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she stared at Landon's pale face.

"Lauren is physically fine. It's just that… she was in huge distress, so she's still unconscious at the moment," Jordan explained in a low voice. He looked glum.

In an instant, Angelina started crying her eyes out. She had been by Lauren's side for so long. How could she not know what mental distress could do to Lauren?

Landon slowly approached her. In a hoarse voice, he questioned, "What happened to your leg?"

"It's nothing…"

"Tell me the truth!"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Landon."

Angelina refused to share more with him. She hung her head low. "I didn't protect Madam Lauren well. I'm useless. It's better if you… set up tighter security and hire an even better bodyguard for Madam Lauren. I'm not competent enough for this."

"What are you saying, Ms. Angie? Out of the entire Harper Group and all the security companies in the entire country, how many female bodyguards are there who are better than you? Even male bodyguards might not possess the same skills as you do!"
