"Landon?"
Alyssa's eyes widened. She stared at Landon's handsome face in shock. In an instant, her eyes lit up!
"Mr. Landon?" Colene, who was standing beside her, was also astonished.
She was aware that Landon had only been staying by Lauren's side ever since she was hurt. He had no time for the business world or the underworld. He had been keeping a low profile.
Other than at Cornelius' funeral, he hadn't reappeared in public. This was the second public appearance since then.
The rebelling division heads, including Harry, were staggered to witness Landon's entrance. Some of them were so shocked that they stumbled backward.
Landon was no longer just a Harper family member. He had now taken over as their head!
"Hello, Ms. Colene. Hi, Lyse."
Landon narrowed his eyes slightly. He slipped his black coat off his broad shoulders. Jordan, who was behind him, caught it in his hands.
"Jasper told me that there would be a big upheaval at The Ivory today and asked me to come over. I love to be part of the excitement. I can see that he really didn't lie to me," Landon chuckled.
Looking into Landon's bright eyes, Alyssa pressed her trembling lips together. She welled up with tears.
She tried her best to control her emotions so that she wouldn't actually cry.
How long had it been since the last time she saw a smile like that on Landon's face? It was a long, long time ago…
He was a man who used to roam freely and proudly throughout Solana City. After such an arduous journey, this man had finally returned.
"Everyone, I'm sure that I am no stranger to any of you."
Landon looked at everyone in the room with a perfunctory smile. Then, he fixed his cold eyes on Harry. "Although my grandfather is no longer around, the Harper family has started to engage in legitimate businesses. As the saying goes, 'Every cloud has a silver lining.'"
He looked down and fiddled with the platinum wedding ring on his ring finger. "To those of you who walk out from this place today—Not only will The Ivory disown you, but you will also not be recognized by the Harper family.
"The world can be a dark and cruel place. I wish you all the best."
These words were, without a doubt, words of threat!

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...
