"Cyrus, what's wrong?" Lauren asked with concern when she noticed his expression.
"Nothing. Let's keep going," Cyrus replied with a forced smile.
He draped his arm over Lauren's shoulder without fully touching her as they moved forward with the crowd, all the while discreetly scanning their surroundings like radar.
At that moment, his phone buzzed in his pocket.
Cyrus took it out and looked at the screen, only to see a text message containing just four words. "Don't panic. It's me."
His sharp eyes slightly narrowed, and his tense heart relaxed.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the crowd, Landon stood in a corner. Despite keeping a low profile, his tall and handsome figure still caught the attention of those around him.
Amidst the lively atmosphere filled with joy and laughter, Landon appeared lonely and desolate, like an elderly man in his twilight years.
His gaze followed Cyrus and Lauren closely, never leaving their backs.
The sun was lovely that day. Under the warm and radiant light, Lauren, under Cyrus' care, had a bright smile. Seeing this, Landon felt as if a flower was blooming in his heart.
Landon gazed intently as Lauren's figure gradually blurred, fading even the hint of tenderness that lingered at the corner of his eye.
Hearing footsteps, he knew it was Angelina approaching. He suppressed his strong emotions and chuckled self-deprecatingly.
"Lauren always told me she wanted a normal life. I never understood what a normal life was, but I think... I understand now. But it's too late."
Angelina felt a pang in her heart and quickly reassured him, "It's not too late, Mr. Landon. It's never too late to win back Madam Lauren."
"I never took her out for a good time—like Cyrus is doing now."

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...
