Landon's words dropped a bomb in the meeting room. Face reddened, Preston slammed his hand on the table and bellowed, "Landon Harper, are you kicking me out? Are you fucking asleep? You were a baby when I was working alongside your grandpa!"
The uncle and nephew finally had a fallout as there were no outsiders around.
"Landon, don't cross the line!" Cornelius chastised his grandson, whom he deemed insane. "I know what's in your mind. You're just trying to avenge Lauren!
"At the end of the day, you're a Harper and the president of the Harper Group. Your dad had contributed to the company's success too. How can you answer Bill if you make a mess in the company?
"Besides, your Uncle Preston did not do anything wrong. Lauren has mental issues. Are you sure you can take care of her forever after you married her? You don't have that patience; you can never do it! You should end your relationship now rather than regretting it in the future."
"Grandpa, I have just one question for you." Landon stubbornly went off-tangent, ignoring Cornelius' remark. "Do you agree with my decision to kick Preston Harper out of the company?"
"How could you demand a director to leave the board without undergoing due process? You're not serious. Do you take the company as a clubhouse, thinking that you can get anything you want with an order?" Cornelius barked at him.
"Fine." Landon leaned into his chair and raised his voice. "Jordan, come in!"
Jordan, seemingly appearing from thin air, shuffled to his side. "Yes, Mr. Landon."
"Grandpa, your birthday is in a few months, isn't that right? Well, it's not your 80th birthday, but I have a big gift for you." Taking a leather envelope from Jordan's hand, he tossed it in front of Cornelius.
Cornelius picked up the envelope with a frown. He took out a stack of photos from within. Every single photo was him holding and hugging hot ladies on a luxury cruise. If any one of them leaked, he would be publicly humiliated.

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🙄...
