Landon disregarded Javier's ridicule. He took a few deep breaths. He was still holding on to Lauren's hand. His hands were trembling due to his nerves.

"I love Lauren. She is the only one whom | will marry. | will make her the happiest woman in this world." Upon saying that, he turned to look Lauren in the eyes. His loving gaze was as deep as the sea. He welled up with tears.

"Please give us your approval for Lauren to marry me." Lauren's cheeks flushed pink. His words warmed her heart.

Betty gritted her teeth as she watched them being lovey-dovey in front of her. Her expression was sinister and cruel. It was as if she was about to show her true colors at any second. She was about to transform into a monster of envy.

Javier scoffed. He responded in a cold and sarcastic voice, "Mr. Landon, you have no right to stand in before me. | am already doing you a favor by conversing with you right here. How dare you propose marriage in front of me? How dare you think of marrying my daughter? "Your standpoint was very clear during the party last time. You wanted to draw the line with the Becketts. We have becsworn enemies.

"| see that you've been very attentive to Ms. Alyssa. You should be going to the Taylor family to propose marriage to Mr. Taylor instead. You shouldn't be here to see me. Though, I'm not sure what Jasper might think about that." Landon's temples were throbbing. Javier's words pierced through his hopeful heart. His anger and unwillingness were stirring him up. He was challenging his patience.

He was fine with Javier insulting him.

He couldn't believe that Javier got Jasper and Alyssa I i in this. He was basically launching a personal attack on him. Landon was enraged.

He was on the verge of losing his temper. He clenched his fists so tightly that they were as hard as rocks.

At the stime, Lauren's body had stiffened up. She felt chills throughout her body.

"Mr. Javier, | understand if you are mad at me. You can scoldall you want. | will not talk back to you." Landon's eyes started to turn red. "But please do not drag my best buddy and his partner into this. | will be responsible for my own matters. This has nothing to do with them! You shouldn't be so disrespectful toward Jasper and Alyssa!" The atmosphere in the spacious hall turned cold in an instant.

Rory looked at Lauren. It looked to him like Landon and Javier were about to have a falling out. He could almost feel his heart in his mouth.

Landon was a good man who valued his relationships with others. However, he may get too emotional at times.

That could really cost him when it cto important matters.

Javier was the kind of individual who wouldn't yield when backed into a corner. He preferred to be persuaded.

Landon might have had a chance to change the situation if he acknowledged his mistakes and humbled himself before Javier.

However, Landon was also the son of a prestigious family. He grew up in a pampered environment. This day was probably the most terrible and hopeless in his entire life.

Naturally, he couldn't contain himself, as it was a challenge difficult for any man of vigor to endure.

"You've made yourself very clear, Mr. Landon. So, | don't think I have to be tactful with you either." Javier shot him a mocking gaze. His expression turned cold. "You want to marry Lauren? Dream on! | will never allow my daughter to marry someone who isn't loyal to the Beckett Group. That would be as good as keeping a ticking tbomb by my side.

"You would becmy son-in-law if you really married Lauren. Then, I'll be having a son-in-law whose loyalty lies with outsiders.

"That means that you would side with others at crucial moments. You might even stab your own fatherin-law in the back. How could | allow someone like this to be a part of the Beckett Group?" Landon was panting heavily. He was furious. He felt as if he had just been punched in the chest and was suffering from internal bleeding. An inexplicable pain spread throughout his entire body.

"I know that you grew up together with Jasper. That's why | haven't kicked you out. | didn't expect that to give you a ridiculous boost of confidence." Javier had a scornful look in his eyes. He tilted his chin up, making him look even more condescending. "I believe | have made myself very clear. | will never agree to this marriage, not even if | were to go to hell! "Lauren will stay here. | want you to leave Seaview Manor immediately. | would prefer it if you never show yourself here again!"
