Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2067

Landon was finally done preparing for his wedding with Lauren at Bernardia. He had made arrangements according to Lauren's preferences.

Over the past month or so, Landon wished that he could split himself into multiples of himself. He had to look after Lauren, manage Harper Group, and manage the decorations at the wedding venue—from personnel assignments, their wedding photo shoot, and the positioning of even a small pot of flowers—everything had to be vetted by him. He made sure that he was all hands-on.

His private plane flew between Bernardia and Solana City multiple times, so much so that he used up a considerable amount of fuel.

Jordan was worried that it would all be too tiring for Landon. He offered to go to Bernardia on his behalf to keep watch over the preparations there, but Landon refused adamantly. He would rather see to it himself.

He didn't care if he was jet-lagged or that he was losing sleep. He made sure that he went there in person to have a hand in the decorating work.

"Why do you have to tire yourself out like that, Mr. Landon?"

Jordan's heart ached for Landon. Landon looked like a shadow of his former self—gaunt, eyes bloodshot and rimmed with exhaustion.

"You can just leave these trivial matters to me. I know I'm not the brightest person, so you can't feel at ease. But it's too exhausting for you to go back and forth like that. How will your body cope?"

"It's not that I don't trust you, Jordan. It's also not because I don't think you're not doing a good enough job."

Landon took out a new, pink-colored bunny plushie that he'd just bought. He placed it at the head of the hospital bed.

In a gentle tone, he explained, "This is my wedding with Lauren. It is also the day that I have been dreaming of. So, I want to focus all my efforts on it and do my best to make it the perfect day.

"Lauren doesn't want to publicize the wedding or make it a grand celebration. Although this was her request, I still feel like… like I owe it to her."

Jordan choked on his tears. "Mr. Landon…"

Landon fixed his eyes on the pink bunny plushie. Angelina's smile and voice suddenly came to mind, making his heart wrench.

He shut his eyes immediately. He forced himself to take a few deep breaths to calm the waves of pain and feelings of wistfulness that surged within him.

"I have too many regrets in this life, Jordan. From this day on, I do not wish for there to be any other regrets in my life with Lauren."
