Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
Chapter 1882

Mandy, however, led with a statement that was not quite in line with her identity but perfectly reflected her current sentiment. "I'm truly disgusted." Javier's eyebrow twitched fiercely. "What did you say?"

"Mr. Javier, I must admit you're indeed favored by God. You're a true lucky one."

Mandy gracefully took her seat and took a sip of her coffee. "Otherwise, with just your intellect, it would be impossible to grow your business this big."

"You..." Javier glared at her indifferent face, his throat tightening with anger.

But he was a person of high status. If he were to retaliate, it would make him look like a shrew.

"Our family is more open-minded. As parents, we don't interfere too much in our children's marriages. I didn't have much contact with Lauren before, but my son likes her. As a mother, isn't it natural for me to support my son?"

Mandy continued, "Plus, the family you picked for Lauren is really disappointing. I just pressured them a little, and they immediately backed out of the engagement.

"It shows that the Hodgsons are all about chasing after fame and money. Wouldn't the Beckett family, being the richest in Solana City, be embarrassed to have them as in-laws?" These words struck a chord with Newton, who nodded vigorously.

"If what you said is true, that I did this at Lyse's arrangement, then I wouldn't have bothered coming again when I heard that both families had called off the engagement."

Mandy calmly continued, "I came to visit again because I also really like Lauren. My desire to see Lauren is just as strong as Cyrus'."

"Mom..." Cyrus felt a warm rush in his chest, and a blush crept up to his ears.

Lauren slowly opened her eyes. Her sparkling gaze was filled with gratitude as she looked at Mandy.

"Javier, what you said earlier was too much. Quickly apologize to Mrs. Taylor!" Newton stared coldly at Javier, clearly displeased.

Javier pursed his lips, clenching his teeth with resentment. He couldn't bring himself to apologize.

For him to apologize to the Taylors would be a disgrace.

"It's okay, Mr. Beckett Senior. Mr. Javier is just concerned about his daughter. As a mother, I can relate."

Mandy lowered her eyes, gently placing her cup down. "However, Mr. Javier, you're not young anymore. If you don't have much to do at work, you should take care of your health like Winston does. Is it fun to constantly throw obstacles in the way of your children's marriages?"

Every word Mandy spoke pierced into Javier's sore spots.

Cyrus stepped forward, gazing at Javier intensely. "Mr. Javier, you can doubt anything. But there's one thing you shouldn't doubt. I swear on my police uniform and my faith that my feelings for Lauren are genuine.

"Even if you don't like me, I still want to tell you that I'm interested in dating Lauren with the intention of marrying her."

Everyone was stunned.

Mandy had never seen Cyrus like this before and was momentarily moved to the point of wanting to cry.

"If you still can't accept it, think of it this way. There's one more person in this world who's willing to protect your daughter with his life. You won't lose out with one more person." Cyrus smiled faintly, but his bright eyes carried a compelling strength.

The hostility on Javier's face dissipated, and he was rendered speechless.

"Let's go, Lauren." This time, Cyrus didn't give Lauren a chance to choose. He decisively took her hand and walked forward confidently.

He took long strides, so Lauren had to hurry to keep up with him.

Lately, whenever she saw Javier, she felt stifled and suffocated. Even if Cyrus didn't speak up, she would leave with him without any hesitation.

In the blink of an eye, the two figures disappeared from outside the gate.

After a deep sigh, Newton praised, "Mrs. Taylor, you've raised your son very well. Compared to you, I feel truly ashamed as a father."

"Dad! What are you talking about?" Javier was infuriated. These two were teaming up to mock him.

After Mandy left, Javier was scolded again by Newton.
