Chapter 366
“Autism?” Landon’s heart ached at that thought. No wonder Lauren behaved so strangely. Though she was 22 years old, she still had the behavior of a young, naive child.
No wonder Sophia never let her out of the house.
“Did you ask her what she thought about those things you did for her? Whether she wanted you to do them or not? Did you ever step in her shoes and think for a moment?
“No, because you’re not capable of that.” Jasper’s breathing was intermingled with a dull pain in his chest. “All she ever wanted was a peaceful, quiet life. Don’t go ruining that for her now. You’ll only make things
worse.”
Landon was silent for a moment. He asked hoarsely, “Can she be cured?”
“Do you think she’d still be like this today if she could?”
Landon thought about how frightened Lauren was last night, his heart pounding painfully behind his
ribcage.
Just then, Jasper’s phone rang. He crinkled his nose but still answered. “Dad.”
“Come back to the office right now. We need to talk.
The call was then hung up.
Jasper stared darkly at his phone, a sneer appearing on his lips.
Were they truly father and son? Sometimes, he wished this relationship between them didn’t exist. At least that way, his reasons for hating this man would be justified.
The president’s secretary opened the door for Jasper when he knocked, nodding courteously. Jasper was
shocked to see someone else in the room-Betty.
He narrowed his eyes just the slightest. Something was up.
“Jasper,” Betty called out in a feigned affectionate tone, as if they were intimately acquainted.
Jasper nodded flatly, never bothering to be too courteous to this sister of his.
Javier began, “I’ve heard all about what happened last night with Ada Kingsley and the ambush at the
hotel from Betty, Jasper. I’ve also seen the news online.”

Javier clasped his hands together, his eyes cold as they turned to his son. “What is your plan now that the
public has lost their faith in the hotel?”
“I’ve had the PR and Networking Department rushing to clear things up since last night. All news about
this should cease to exist by tonight.”
Betty spoke up, “Even so, the damage is done. You cannot stop gossip from taking root and spreading
now. It’s honestly pretty embarrassing to the company..

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...
