Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Watching Landon's anxious, bloodshot eyes, Angelina felt a pang of heartache.
In fact, she had initially disagreed with Landon's approach of letting Lauren face
reality. She felt it was too cruel for someone as fragile as Lauren.
However, the news of Sophia's death sentence couldn't be hidden forever. It was
better to handle it promptly than to let it explode later.
Yet, she overestimated Landon's control over Lauren and underestimated
Lauren's power during her episode.
"Angelina, take Lauren back to her room to rest."
Jasper then turned to Landon with concern. "Landon, you're not in a good state
either. Let Angelina look after Lauren for now."
Angelina carefully took Lauren from Landon's embrace and effortlessly carried
her, steadily making her way upstairs.
Alyssa and Jasper exchanged bewildered glances.
Angelina, whom Landon had raised since childhood, could easily replace a
grown man.
"I just wanted... I just wanted Lauren to accept the reality. I didn't expect it would
turn out like this."
Landon dropped his arms. He gasped heavily, feeling as if his entire being were
being boiled in hot oil.
"Sophia never cared about Lauren. I thought... I thought Lauren had already
accepted this reality. I thought she wouldn't—"
"You thought, you thought! Have you ever thought about Lauren?" Alyssa's anger
flared up at his words.
She took two quick steps forward and grabbed Landon's collar. "Since you flirted
with Lauren, you brought her to live with you, away from the Becketts.
"And then forcibly introduced her to the Harpers, subjecting her to the scrutiny of
your grandfather and mother. Now you're imposing your thoughts on her, thinking
she can accept and bear it!
"Where does your confidence come from? Is this really all for Lauren? Have you
ever put yourself in her shoes? Have you ever cared about her feelings?"
"Lyse..." Jaspers eyes faltered. He wanted to calm her down, but he was afraid
of saying too much. After all, he wasn't quite good at comforting someone.
Recalling everything that had happened, Landon felt a sharp pain in his heart,
and his eyes dimmed. He had never asked whether Lauren liked it or wanted it.
Her obedience, gentleness, and compliance often made him overlook her true
feelings. Every time he suggested something, she would say, "Okay."
And every time he gave her something, even the passionate love that almost
broke her in half every night, she would say, "I love you."
"I love you. I really love you, Landon."
But this time, he suddenly realized that he was wrong.
He thought he was considering her and that he was selfless and great, but he
never considered whether Lauren wanted this and could bear it.
