"Release her," Landon commanded, his gaze unwavering as it bore down on the two maids. His tone carried a menacing edge akin to an infernal angel. The two maids nervously looked to Betty for help.
Betty was aware of Landon's affection for Lauren from the way he ordered the maids around. She had wanted to cave in for her Mr. McDreamy but changed her mind upon second thought.
Following Sophia's clash with the Harpers after Zoe's incident, any hopes of Landon developing feelings for Betty had been shattered.
Moreover, Landon's intervention in their family affairs, even if it was out of concern for Lauren, was entirely unwarranted.
Brimming with resentment, Betty hissed, "Do not release her! You're working for the Becketts, and you shall listen to m—"
Her words were abruptly silenced by a piercing scream.
One of the maids restraining Lauren was sent hurtling through the air by the force of Landon's kick. Betty stared in shock as the maid landed on the floor like a ragdoll.
The second maid hastily released Lauren and apologized profusely, "Mr. Harper, I made a mistake, but we were just following ord—Ouch!"
Another scream echoed through the room as Landon's kick landed on the second maid, causing her ribs to fracture.
"Where does it hurt?" Landon felt his chest tighten. She continued to murmur about the pain, seemingly oblivious to his question.
As Sophia descended the stairs, she witnessed the confrontation between Landon and Betty and was taken aback to see Lauren in Landon's embrace.
Frowning, she seemed to have connected the dots and stealthily hid in a corner to watch the events unfold.
Landon shot a menacing glare at Betty and warned, "Betty Beckett, are you itching to be sent back to the police station?"

The readers' comments on the novel: Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
seems to have come to a halt useless...
Where are the chapters please ? Over a week no updates....
Just tell me where to purchase the book I definitely will buy it...
Need more chapters please...
It’s dwindled down to 1 page a day??...
7 chapters a day would be great...
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?...
