Can't Win Me Back Chapter 410
"Zoe, Lauren is not an idiot! You can't call her that!" Landon chastised Zoe, deeply disturbed by her hurtful description of Lauren.In his eyes, Zoe had always been an angel. Sure, she could be a bit petulant at times, but she was inherently kind and soft-hearted.However, in this particular moment, Zoe seemed contorted by rage and hatred, as if she had a personal vendetta against Lauren and wanted nothing more than to tear her apart.Was it all because he had spent the night with Lauren?Throughout his years of casual encounters, Landon had never witnessed Zoe reacting so strongly against any of his romantic partners. Why was she agitated just because he was being good to Lauren?"Y-You yelled at me for calling her an idiot. How could you …" Zoe's flushed face had now paled, and the icy, piercing look in Landon's eyes caused beads of sweat to form on her forehead."Lauren is not an idiot, Zoe. I never want to hear you say that again. If it happens one more time, I'll be genuine

With such a straightforward question, all eyes turned to Bryan.A chill went down his spine as he met Alyssa's sharp gaze. However, he kept his composure and calmed down. He said, "This was already a public secret within our circle. The Beckett Group competed with us previously, and Ada was wavering between you and Mr. Beckett. "But in the end, you were one step ahead of his game, so you took over the right to host the wedding. "Since we're on the losing end now, given Ada's wedding is just around the corner, it's only natural that she'd switch to the Beckett Group, isn't it?"Bryan made it sound like it made perfect sense. Alyssa smiled, her captivating eyes narrowed slightly. She leaned back comfortably and smirked. "Good point, Bryan. But you've overlooked one thing—until now, the Beckett Group and Ada have not signed any official contract," stated Alyssa. Everyone was appalled. "What? It's been a week, and the contract hasn't been signed?"Bryan remained calm, but hi

Javier asked, "At this hour?"Javier lifted his wrist and looked at his watch. He furrowed his brows slightly. "He should know Jasper isn't home right now. Besides, it's almost dinner time. And for him to come now …""Oh, Javier, why are you overthinking it? It's rare for Mr. Harper to pay us a visit. Maybe he's here for Betty," said Sophia in a honeyed voice as she linked her arms with Javier."Sophia, what do you mean? Don't tell me Landon and Betty …" Javier was taken aback."You're always so busy, and you don't pay much attention to Betty. You don't even know what's going on in her mind.""Betty has had her eye on Mr. Harper for quite some time," said Sophia reproachfully as her slender fingers gently poked Javier's chest. Javier stared in astonishment. "Betty likes Landon? Why haven't I noticed at all?""Oh, you know how girls are easily embarrassed. How can they just put it straight like that?" replied Sophia. Sophia also had an embarrassed look on her face. It was as i

Landon was in no rush to go back after leaving the room. Instead, he wandered around aimlessly in the Beckett family's mansion. In truth, he was strolling aimlessly, hoping to run into someone special. His heart yearned for that petite lady who always appeared downtrodden, her head hanging low.He wasn't exactly a saint, but his heart always had a soft spot for that delicate and seemingly forlorn young lady."Mr. Harper? Why are you here?" Rosie asked in astonishment as she unexpectedly ran into him."Uh … Uh … I …" Landon looked sheepish and couldn't find the right words to say after stammering for a while. Finally, he gathered his courage and mumbled, "Mrs. Rosie, where's Lauren?"Rosie looked at him in bewilderment. She couldn't associate Landon with Lauren in any possible way. There was no way that this could be happening. "What are you trying to do? Mr. Harper, don't you dare to scare her! She's still young and doesn't get to meet people often."Landon arched his brow. "M

Lauren extended her hand toward Landon, her face partially buried between her knees. "Give it back to me …""I saved your teddy bear last night. Can't you give me this painting in return?"Landon leaned against the desk, his well-built arms supporting him. "I really like this painting. Will you give it to me, please?""I've already prepared your pre-present," Lauren uttered timidly, her toes curling inward."Where is it?" Landon's eyes lit up in excitement.After around ten minutes, Landon was back in his Ferrari.He couldn't stop smiling from the immense, unprecedented satisfaction. He held a cake box in his left hand and the neatly rolled portrait from earlier in his right hand.He had been secretly hoping he could get a painting from Lauren when he saw the painting she gifted to Newton on his birthday.A one-of-a-kind painting created just for him. He couldn't believe that his dream came true. And that joy and satisfaction he felt was indescribable. Pleased, Landon kept th

Sean was panting as he rushed back to Alyssa's place, the chilly fall air clinging to him. His forehead glistened with sweat. Alyssa didn't immediately ask him about the outcome; instead, she strode to the coffee table and poured him a glass of warm water. She handed the glass over to him and said, "Take a rest first and have some warm water. It's cold outside, isn't it?"As Sean took the glass, the tips of his chilly fingers brushed against Alyssa's. It felt warm, and his heart skipped a beat."Have a seat and relax."Alyssa turned and sat on the couch. She had her legs crossed beneath her nightgown and her peach-colored velvet slippers perched on the tips of her toes.Sean's face was slightly flushed as he held the glass awkwardly in his hands. He took a moment to regulate his breathing before speaking, "Ms. Alyssa, everything turned out just as you expected. Bryan and Abigail knew each other, and they're much more than just friends!"Alyssa smiled. "Even if I knew what's

It was midnight. Jasper sat by the window in his study room, pouring himself a glass of red wine.The glass he was using at the moment was one of the presents Alyssa had given him. It was a pair of Baroque-style crystal wine glasses. The clear clinking of these glasses indicated their top-notch craftsmanship and exquisite quality. As he sipped the wine, he couldn't help but wonder if when she had gifted him these glasses, she had thought of spending a lifetime together with him.Jasper frowned. The wine in his mouth suddenly tasted even more bitter than a bitter gourd. Right at that moment, a knock sounded at his door. Xavier entered the room with several documents. "Mr. Beckett, I've completed the investigation on Abigail, just as you instructed. Rest assured, I even found information on where her ancestors are buried! Absolutely no oversight!" Xavier declared confidently. Previously, Jasper hadn't left a good impression on Alyssa because of Xavier. This time, he was parti

After the last meeting, the team members regained their hope. The once disheartened team became motivated again. Alyssa was an inspirational leader. Her employees weren't just her staff. They were also her devoted fans, captivated by her dazzling personality. Today, she was beaming with joy as she showed up for the regular meeting. During the meeting, she announced, "Ada has agreed to meet with me tonight. Whether it's going to succeed—let's put that aside first. At least it's a good start."The team members cheered. Bryan was the only one sitting at the far end. Although he had a delightful expression, his eyes showed no trace of joy. "Although we breached the contract first, I believe Ada's not a rigid person. I'm confident that my latest proposal can outperform the Beckett Group. And once she reviews it, she'll definitely be more pleased with it than the first version," Alyssa declared confidently. "Ms. Alyssa! You've got to show us!""Of course, I'd like to show it to e

"How about now? Is Ms. Altman at home?" Alyssa asked urgently."She isn't," Clark replied. "She drove out the back gate alone around 11:00 pm. Our security personnel stopped her then, but she said she was just going out for some fresh air because she had trouble sleeping. She promised she wouldn't be long, but it's strange—she hasn't returned even now."Alyssa's ears began to ring, her heart sinking like a stone.When she ended the call, her nightgown clung to her skin, drenched in cold sweat. Her trembling hand gripped the phone tightly.She thought of calling Jonah, but he was still searching for Julien in Mosgravia. He wouldn't be able to return in time. Silas wasn't home tonight; he was likely with Rose. Besides, he was more of an academic than a fighter—not someone who could help in a crisis. Getting him out of bed in the middle of the night couldn't possibly solve any of their problems. Axel had returned to his organization, leaving Cyrus as the only one accessible who mi

Amber's eyes reddened as she darted toward the trapdoor in The Millennium, tears streaming down her face.Remy had let her go. He actually spared her! Didn't this prove that he was Damien? That his true nature lingered, even if his memories of the past had been lost?Hope and excitement bubbled within her as she ran. She had to reach Alyssa immediately and share this evidence—this incredible news!Emerging from the trapdoor, Amber navigated the tangled paths among the weeds on the mountain behind The Millennium.Suddenly, she froze. Her breath hitched. Beams of white light shone from all directions, focusing on her. The cold, unyielding spotlights told her everything—she was surrounded, the target of an ambush. Amber's heart pounded in her chest. Cold sweat slicked her palms as her fingers clenched tightly around her dagger. The veins on the back of her hand throbbed with adrenaline.Six assassins in black emerged from the shadows, their flashlights cutting through the gl

Amber glared at Remy through her bloodshot eyes, thrusting her gleaming blade toward his chest. In her early days of being Jameson's follower, the first lesson drilled into her was how to kill quickly and efficiently. Refinement wasn't necessary—only results mattered. Yet, despite mastering the techniques, she had never put them into practice. Deep down, Amber feared the sight of blood and loathed the idea of taking a life.And now, of all people, it was Remy forcing her to cross that line.The blade's tip hovered mere inches from Remy's heart when hesitation gripped her. Axel's voice echoed in her mind, raw with emotion. "Amber, I keep feeling that Remy is my fifth brother, Damien. We miss him… We want him to come home!"Her pupils dilated. The blade wavered, its deadly intent dissipating.That single moment of doubt was all Remy needed. With a calm, calculated motion, he seized her wrist and twisted it sharply.Amber gasped in pain, her grip faltering as the blade clattered

The password to Jameson's room was Alyssa's birthday. Jameson had always believed himself to be a devoted man, taking pride in that notion. Yet, in Amber's eyes, his devotion was nothing more than a pathetic joke—a sentiment she couldn't help but detest.Taking a steadying breath, Amber began rummaging through the drawers and shelves with swift precision.Years of observation had taught her that Jameson had hidden several secret compartments in this room, places meant to conceal vital information. Unless Jameson or Carl disclosed their existence, even the police might not have uncovered them.After what felt like an eternity, sweat beading on her forehead, Amber discovered a hidden compartment beneath a floor sculpture.As she pried the brick loose, her breath hitched. Inside the compartment lay a waterproof plastic bag containing a document and a USB drive.Amber retrieved the document. Her heart raced as she realized its contents—a research report from Mosgravia's RC Biotech

Ever since getting together with Axel, Amber had lived each day in bliss. Yet, when Winston assured her that he truly accepted her and approved of her marriage to Axel, that bliss reached its peak. For so long, Amber had struggled with feelings of inferiority, never truly believing she deserved Axel's love. Deep down, she had resolved to step away if Winston disapproved or insisted Axel marry a woman from a reputable family—a match more fitting of his status.She wouldn't have hesitated to leave if it meant sparing Winston and Axel any conflict. Amber loved Axel wholeheartedly and was willing to sacrifice everything for him.But instead of rejection, she found warmth. The Taylor family embraced her as one of their own, showing her kindness and understanding rather than disdain for her past.She could never repay such compassion. "Winston… Thank you. Thank you…" Amber's tear-filled eyes glistened, their brightness undimmed despite all the darkness she had endured. Winston s

Amber stifled a laugh and teased, "Stop talking, Mr. Whitaker. You're going to sound like a broken record if you keep going." …After breakfast and a quick packing session, Axel departed from Heightsnew Villa. Amber spent her day helping the Taylors with various tasks. She assisted Mandy in organizing documents for Lovelace Group's projects, helped Lyla with cooking, and even joined Colene in feeding her horse. With Tatiana's due date approaching, Amber also pitched in for her shower preparations.Amber had always been a diligent person, but today, she seemed particularly intent on keeping herself busy. She was counting down the hours until nightfall. After dinner, the Taylors sat in the living room and chatted casually as they always did. The warm, familial atmosphere filled the space, and Amber joined in, her perceptive nature making her a seamless part of the group.When everyone retired to their rooms, Amber rose to help the helpers clear the table. "Amber." Startled

Axel and Amber had only spent half a month together before the former was called back to report for work. The night before his departure, they spent hours lost in each other, their passion unrelenting. Again and again, they exchanged kisses, their love pouring forth in an endless tide."Amber, three months… Just give me three more months." When their fervor finally waned, Axel held Amber close in his arms. They rested against the headboard, leaning into one another, too exhausted to move yet unwilling to let sleep claim them."Once I finish all the missions I've taken on, I'll hand in my resignation. After that, I'll spend all my time with you," Axel murmured, his voice steady with resolve. "We'll go wherever you want. If you want fun, I'll have fun with you. If you want chaos, I'll spend my life going crazy with you."Axel wasn't one for flowery words. He simply spoke from the heart. Right now, his heart only wanted Amber—forever.Amber nestled closer, her soft smile masking t

"Sir." Sheryl immediately stood and greeted Justin respectfully as he entered the room. "What are you doing here?" Justin's cold gaze swept over her as he strolled leisurely to the couch and sat down.Sheryl quickly explained, "I received a parcel for you from the administrative secretary half an hour ago. I thought it might be something important, something you wouldn't want too many people to handle. So, I waited for you to return and open it personally.""A parcel?" Justin frowned. Why would anyone send him a parcel to Beckett Group, of all places? How strange. Sheryl presented the parcel to him with both hands. He took it from her and then opened it right before her. After removing three layers of wrapping, each from outside and inside the box, the parcel turned out to contain only a plain white envelope. His expression darkened. It felt like someone was toying with him.Then, he looked down and opened the envelope, which contained a stack of photographs. Pinching a co

"Don't be so pessimistic, Jonah," Alyssa said. Perhaps having just seen Jasper and going through that heart-stopping moment made Alyssa emotional. Tears welled up in her eyes as she continued, "If you truly love someone, you don't need to possess him to find happiness. Isn't it enough to know he's alive, well, and living freely somewhere in this world?""You're right, Lyse." Sorrow filled Jonah's voice as he smiled bitterly. "Julien has already lost and sacrificed too much for my sake. I don't deserve to have such a good man. He'll only find true happiness by leaving me."…After Justin took over as president of Beckett Group, his first move was to wrest control of the A5 Project bid from Jasper's hands.Though Jasper had failed as the leader of Beckett Group, as the eldest son, it was only natural for Justin to inherit the position of power. Justin was aware of lingering opposition within the corporation. Some doubted whether he possessed the decisiveness and singular capabili
