Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Alyssa continued, "Lauren likes art. She's exceptionally gifted in painting and has
the potential to become a brilliant artist. Have you ever seriously nurtured her
talent? Why haven't you hired a teacher to teach her painting?
"Why haven't you sent her to prestigious art schools for further studies? Is her
talent only meant to entertain you and make you happy? Do you know you're
wasting her time and holding her back?"
Landon felt like there was a massive hole in his heart that was causing him pain.
"I'm not wasting Lauren's time. I'm not holding her back. Lauren is the only
woman I want in my life. From the beginning, you and Jasper have known that I
want to marry her!"
"What difference does it make if you marry her? It'll just be repeating the same
days, or even worse."
Alyssa shook her head in disappointment. "If you're incapable of taking care of
Lauren, then you shouldn't have made promises. This is not the first time she has
had her episodes, but this is definitely the most severe. There'll be many more
times in the next few decades.
"Can you handle it? Can you endure it? You're not a patient person to begin with.
You've been accommodating and enduring just because you're in the honeymoon
phase with Lauren!
"But 10 or 20 years from now, when your love and patience have worn thin, will
you still take care of Lauren with the same dedication? Will you still kneel down
and comfort her like you did today?"
"I can! Why wouldn't 1?" Landon's voice was hoarse as he shouted at Alyssa.
"Lyse, I know I'm not a good person. I know I haven't done enough for Lauren,
but you shouldn't doubt my love for her! You shouldn't insult me with these
doubts!"
"Enough, Landon!" Jasper quickly stepped forward to shield Alyssa, wrapping his
arm around her shoulder. He fixed his deep gaze on Landon. "Lyse didn't mean it
that way. She's just worried about Lauren. No one in the Beckett family has ever
been truly dedicated to Lauren, including me.
"The only person who has accompanied and cared for Lauren is Lyse. Seeing
Lauren in so much pain makes her feel worse than you. She's being harsh
because she cares."
Alyssa pursed her lips, feeling the burning sensation in her throat from shouting
at Landon too loudly just now.
Her words were truly harsh, but she was just afraid that something might happen
to Lauren.
She didn't mean to separate them, but their current way of interacting was clearly
unhealthy. Lauren's condition prevented her from having control of their
relationship, so she had to wake Landon up. Otherwise, unintentional hurt would
be inflicted constantly.
"Autism can be divided into hyper-sensitivity and hypo-sensitivity. Unfortunately,
Lauren is the former. It's often because her thoughts are too delicate, her
empathy is stronger than ordinary people's, that she's easily stimulated, and her
actions become uncontrollable.”
Alyssa leaned against Jasper. Now that she had calmed down, her expression
was melancholy. "Moreover, Sophia is her mother. Although she's a monstrous
and unforgivable murderer, she has raised Lauren since childhood.
"With her own mother sentenced to death and her dearest brother's mother being
the victim of her mother, it's natural for Lauren to collapse. You should have
anticipated this."
