Landon's mind was muddled. He didn't understand what Jasper was saying at that moment. "I don't get you, Jasper."
"Mr. Harper! I have bad news!"
Jordan handed his phone to Landon in terror. His hands were shaking. "Someone… Someone exposed the video of Madam Lauren having a meltdown. It's spreading like wildfire on the internet. It has already been reshared 200,000 times!"
In an instant, all the blood drained from Angelina's face. She dropped her crutches onto the floor.
Landon stared straight at the screen. His eyes widened before they turned red in trepidation. The muscles in his entire body tensed up and he started trembling.
Jasper's angry voice sounded once again. Landon, however, only felt like Jasper's voice was coming from a faraway place.
"Why did Lauren have a meltdown? Who filmed that video and put it up on the internet? Didn't you say that you would take good care of my sister? Didn't you assign people to protect her?
"What's going on with you, Landon? Have you been consumed by the power that your so-called 'most important woman' is now secondary to you?"
Landon felt like he had a lump stuck in his throat. All he could taste was bitterness at the back of his tongue.
"Say something! Are you trying to feign ignorance now?" Jasper growled.
Although Jasper was enraged that such a major incident had happened, he couldn't bring himself to suggest something as cruel as separation.
Jasper had experienced it himself. He believed that Landon was in love with Lauren. Landon loved Lauren just like how Jasper himself loved Alyssa.
He knew the pain of separation all too well. Without a doubt, the feeling was like having one's flesh cut over and over without giving it time to heal.
However, Jasper was also at a loss now.
Lauren and Alyssa were different. Alyssa was a fighter who could fight alongside him. She also had a strong background and a loving family. She could afford to fight the fight and was not afraid of losing.
Lauren, on the other hand… What did she have? She was no match for them.
Nevertheless, was the current version of Landon capable of protecting her? Being in love didn't guarantee happiness!
"I will handle this, Jasper. Please believe me. I know who it was who exposed it. I know who the mastermind is. I will deal with them."
Landon's eyes were quivering and the tears in his eyes blurred his vision. Even his breathing was uneven. "Whoever… Whoever harms Lauren… deserves to die!"
"Landon, what's the point of that?"
Jasper's deep voice sounded bitter. "The mastermind has achieved their goal. That video has spread across the internet and everyone in the country has found out that Lauren isn't a typical woman."
The video had been reshared a few hundred thousand times. Soon, the number of reshares would exceed a million, and tens of millions of people would have seen the clip.
It was impossible to delete all the videos. This was already out of their control.
"Not only that, Grandpa Newton and Javier have already found out about it. Grandpa Newton almost collapsed. Lyse has gone to accompany him now."
Jasper tried his best to suppress the pain in his heart. He croaked, "Grandpa Newton wants to take Lauren home. I will go to you now and bring Lauren back."
Landon turned a deaf ear to Jasper. His gaze was unfocused and bleary. "If I had known that this was the outcome… I shouldn't have become the president…"

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🙄...
