Chapter 598

"What is this? Highway robbery?" Alyssa snapped, eyes scanning him up and down.

"You left is a hurry from the hospital, so I didn't have a chance to speak to you," Jasper said gently,

Ignoring her frigidity

"We wouldn't have met there if it didn't concern Lauren's well-being. There's nothing more to say between us." Alyssa turned and marched straight for the villa gates.

She added, "I'll have someone send over the next batch of medicine for the second stage of your healing. If you want to live a long life, make sure you take them on time." "Lyse, wait." Jasper reached out to hold her hand.

But Alyssa stopped just then. "By the way, do relay a message of mine to Landon. I'm aware of his feelings for Lauren, and I vehemently disagree with it."

Jasper blinked rapidly, frowning.

aw, I would "I know I'm no longer Lauren's sister-in-law but an outsider, and even if I were still her in-law, never have the right to step in on her personal affairs so long as her parents were still breathing. But unfortunately, I insist on stepping in."

There was a a hint of anger in Alyssa's tone as she continued, "Right now, the only person who could help Lauren in your family is Grandpa, but you know just as I do what condition he is in right now. He's getting older, and he may not have the energy to be concerned with Lauren's affairs too much anymore.

"Lauren's parents are basically there for show, and so are you. When have you ever come to her aid first thing v

when she was in trouble all this time? You clearly have no capability to keep her safe, and she's

clearly not your priority."

Jasper's heart winced with pain as he slowly balled a hand into a fist.

"That's why I'm going to care about Lauren. From now on, I'm treating her as my sister and family," Alyssa

said sternly, "And I will never, ever agree to a relationship between her and Landon!"

"Why not?" Jasper asked, taking a step closer to her, meeting her steely gaze.

Misunderstanding his gaze for a challenge, Alyssa scowled, "Why not? Do you not care about your sister's well-being, Jasper Beckett? Or do you just not care that Landon is going to use her for his selfish desires, all because she's Sophia's daughter?"

Jasper was angry now. Not at Alyssa, really. He could empathize with where she was coming from. But he "Landon genuinely likes Lauren. You saw how much she depended on him today, Lyse, how much she

wants to be with-" Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Is being dependent the same thing as like? Don't forget that Lauren is on the spectrum and has rarely attended a day of school. How could someone like her, who's never been exposed to the real world, know what a relationship between adults is like?" Alyssa exclaimed, her voice echoing in the night air.

"Would you give them one chance, Lyse, if Landon truly likes Lauren?" Jasper was nearly begging by now.

"First of all, you know just how hedonistic a lifestyle Landon has lived all these years with all those women he's slept with.

"I know there's a possibility for him to turn away from those one day and settle down, but Lauren is too incompatible with him..

"She doesn't know how to keep him under control or meet him on equal footing. I can't watch Lauren waste away her youth like this.

"Secondly, do you really think marrying into the Harper family is the right decision for Lauren?" Alyssa asked sternly.

Jasper winced. He and Landon rarely spoke about the latter's family, even though they'd been close friends for so many years.
