"Or perhaps, you think of Lauren as the least important Beckett daughter. Do you only deem her good

enough as a mistress, not a wife?"

"Alyssa Taylor! How could you- Landon snapped at her.

This was the first time in his life that he had felt genuine anger toward her. It suddenly became clear to him why Jasper would frequently cough up blood-it must have been because of Alyssa.

"Enough. There's no point in arguing. I'm all for true love, but I refuse to Lauren suffer by your side," she concluded. Her eyes welled up with tears at the thought of Lauren, who had endured abuse at home.

She pleaded. "Life has been harsh for Lauren. I don't want to see her endure more suffering. Landon, you

come from a complicated world, which would be a burden for Lauren. Please think this over."

After taking Jasper to the hospital, Landon returned home, utterly drained.

He considered the villa he shared with Lauren his home. He might have a mom and a sister, but his mom had been depressed ever since his dad's passing and had stayed abroad for her treatment. Not only that, but Zoe had also been studying abroad.

The Harper Residence had always been lonely and never merry.

During his brief time with Lauren, he had felt at ease, relaxed, and truly at home. He even harbored a desire to live like this forever. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"How's Lauren doing?" Landon immediately asked Angelina with concern upon arriving Angelina fuscus

her brow and sighed. "Ms. Lauren is in her room. I tried to soothe her to sleep, but she

was too shocked to rest. I feel so sorry for her."

Hearing this, Landon was overwhelmed with guilt and ascended the stairs with heavy steps. "I'll keep her

company."

After some hesitation, Angelina questioned, "Mr. Harper, how will you deal with Ms. Zoe?"

"Angelina, do you ever think I'm a failure?" Landon pondered with his back turned to her.

Angelina was taken aback by the question. Having served him for a decade, she had always seen him as rebellious and haughty. She had never seen him so defeated and unsure.

"Mr. Harper, I always hold you in high regard

"But I can't keep Zoe under control, and Lauren is hurt because of that. Angelina, I really have no ideal what to do," he confessed. Zoe's sickening scowl when she had bullied Lauren had left him feeling powerless.

He added. "The best I can do is to send her to Yoarkley, but that won't solve the problem."

"Mr. Harper, take it one step at a time. As long as you don't give up on Ms. Lauren, Ms. Zoe will eventually accept your decision."

Landon gathered his thoughts and opened the door to Lauren's room. He called out, "Lauren? I'm back."

Only a lamp was switched on by the headboard in the quiet room. Lauren curled up at the edge of the bed, burying her head between her knees.

He removed his black fur coat and laid it on the couch to avoid letting in drafts. Then, he tiptoed over and joined her by the bed.

"Lauren, does it still hurt?" He gently tousled her soft hair. She shook her head.
