Can’t Win Me Back

-"Hi, Landon. Hi, Uncle Preston."
Zoe stopped right in front of them. A sweet smile came across her face. She was pretending to be nice.
"Oh, hey, Zoe! Are you feeling better?" Preston asked, pretending to be concerned.
"I'm much better. Thanks for asking, Uncle Preston."
"That's good to hear. You're a precious one in the Harper family. Your Grandpa and mother would be sad if anything bad happened to you!" Preston uttered these words for Landon to hear.
Following that, he shot Zoe a look before walking away while humming a tune.
"What are you doing here?" Landon glared at her frigidly.
"I made some chicken soup for Grandpa, so I'm bringing it to him while it's still hot."
Zoe blinked. She had an innocent look in her eyes. "Landon, you're not going to stop me from being nice to Grandpa, are you?"
Landon's deep and icy gaze narrowed as he raised his hand, pointing dominantly at her face.
Although he hadn't said a word, Zoe's heart started racing out of fear. Her hands, which were carrying the tray, trembled slightly.
"I'm warning you, Zoe. Don't try to be funny. Otherwise, I will rip off that dishonest tongue of yours and break your damn legs. You can try me if you don't believe me."
Upon saying that, Landon bumped her out of the way and left with great strides.
Zoe glared at him from behind. It was as if he was unshakable. Through gritted teeth, she muttered, "Let's see then!"
After that, she wiped off the gloomy expression from her face and put on a lovely smile before entering the study.
"I'm here to see you, Grandpa!"
The dull gaze in Cornelius' eyes vanished temporarily at the sight of Zoe. He gave a friendly smile in response. "Hi, Zoe."
"Here's some chicken soup. I made it especially for you, Grandpa. It took me an entire day to prepare it."
Zoe placed the tray on the coffee table. She served up a bowl of soup to Cornelius. "This soup is best eaten when you're in a bad mood. It nourishes your body and helps soothe your heart. Try it, Grandpa."
"How did you know that I was in a bad mood, Zoe?" Cornelius put a spoonful of soup into his mouth. Just like Zoe said, it made him feel less suffocated.
"Landon just came to see you. I also noticed that you looked like you had a lot on your mind when I walked in. There's also this invitation card on the table. It's from Landon and Lauren, isn't it?"
Zoe smiled perfunctorily. "It seems like they have some good news?"
"Good news? This is not good news!"

"I know right, Grandpa? I knew that you were bothered by this."
"At this point, what else is there that I wouldn't be able to take? Just tell me!"
"Take a look at this, Grandpa."
Doubtfully, Cornelius took the document from her and started flipping through it briefly.
