Chapter 639

Just like that, a red crescent appeared on Lauren's cheek.

"Mom is already so angry because of that bitch Alyssa's meddling! Why must you still come to her defense? You're already useless as it is!" Betty shrieked. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

*Alyssa isn't a bitch!" Lauren grew angrier, meeting Betty's yells.

"Then who is?" Betty roared, making the guests shoot her inquisitive looks.

"Not her!" Lauren cried, standing up to glare right into Betty's eyes, which were now shocked.

Lauren could tolerate Betty scolding her and hurting her, but she wouldn't let her humiliation of Alyssa

stand!

"How dare you conniving little beast yell at me? You think you're so powerful now that Landon has your back, do you?" Betty yelled, reaching out to grab Lauren's arm. She'd had enough of Lauren's jabs tonight.

Just then, the ballroom doors opened.

All eyes turned as a man walked in steadily.

"L-Landon..." Lauren murmured, her eyes tearing up as she called out to him.

Landon met her gaze, his own fervent with passion and tenderness. He didn't want to look away.

Even if she was dressed plainly or if she made herself smaller than everyone else, he would still be able

Yet she knew Landon had no eyes for her whatsoever, not even if she stripped naked before him.

"I'm so glad you could come here tonight, Mr. Harper. We've been waiting for you!" Sophia exclaimed.

Then, she hurriedly called out, "Hurry up and get Mr. Harper some champagne!"

It didn't matter that he was here for Lauren. What mattered was that his arrival would add some life to her

celebration.

"No, thank you. I'm not here for the birthday celebration," Landon said lightly, hands in his pockets.

"Then, what are you here f-

"I'm here to take my woman way."

Landon's words were filled with tender love and affection as they rang throughout the ballroom. Under everyone's gaze, he slowly walked up to Lauren.

Both Sophia and Betty looked like they had just tasted bitter lemons.

Lauren blushed slightly, watching Landon walk up to her like she was a bride at the altar.

Landon even shoved Betty away when he came up close to Lauren.
