"From now on, | need to care for Landon just like how Alyssa had cared for Jasper," Lauren promised.

Angelina felt both endeared and sad upon hearing this. She was glad that Landon and Lauren's relationship had been far less eventful than Jasper's and Alyssa's. Lauren would never suffer by Landon's side the way Alyssa had with Jasper.

But it was a good thing that Alyssa was patient enough and that Jasper realized how he truly felt in time, finally enabling both of them to reunite.

"Angie, if Landon isn't coming home for dinner tonight, then there's no point for me to go back either." Lauren held Angelina's hand and said, "I want to practice in one of the drawing rooms. Can we have dinner at a restaurant later instead?" "W-What did you just say, madam?" Angelina was stunned.

Lauren was both autistic and had high social anxiety. She'd never had a meal outside the house, even after dating Landon for so long. Lauren was always hesitant whenever Landon got them a spot at a restaurant and would find excuses to eat at home instead.

Lauren had clearly changed for the better ever since being outside more. She spoke and smiled more, no longer as timid as she used to be. Angelina was incredibly touched by this change.

"Well... | heard from the students in the front row that a new barbecue place has opened on Saint Avenue. They said the food there was really good, so can we try it out tonight?" Lauren asked.

She continued hopefully, "You've already come with me to class for a week now and even have to prepare dinner for me in the evenings. I'm sure it must be really exhausting. So why don't you take a break tonight? | have the money to buy you dinner." Angelina did her best to hold her tears of joy back. "Alright. Thank you, madam." The drawing room was devoid of people as class was over.

Lauren tied her long hair into a bun and took up a pencil before she began drawing.

Angelina took a picture of her and sent it to Landon. Landon immediately replied with an angry text. It read, "Why is she still in class? Is that school trying to exhaust Lauren? Do they not want the money to rebuild their library anymore?" "Class is over, Mr. Harper. Madam just wanted to stay behind and practice her art," Angelina texted back.

"Oh, Lauren. Fine then. Just watch after her and make sure she doesn't exhaust herself. | feel bad when she does." "I'd also like to update you on something, sir. Madam wanted to treat me to dinner tonight at a barbecue restaurant.” Landon didn't reply for a while after receiving this text.

A series of furious emojis were then sent to Angelina, making her phone vibrate endlessly. They were then followed by a single text, reading, "FUCK!" Angelina didn't respond.

"I am SO jealous of you right now, Angelina! Just you wait till I'm back!" Landon texted.

Angelina scoffed. Landon was always so straightforward and indiscriminate with his jealousy.

Shortly after, Landon followed up with, "Take care of Lauren and eat my portion for me too."

"Don't worry, sir. I'll take good care of madam. Please hurry home once you're done.Don't keep madam waiting." "Okay." The bitterness from that word alone was incredibly apparent.

Was managing both one's family and business at the same time truly a difficult task?

Just then, Angelina received a call from the staff department's head .The latter was askinf her to retrieve sbrrie documents and sign some forms. Angelina left to do so and didn't return, even after a long while had passed.

Lauren didn't even notice when Angeline had left as she was too focused on her art.

A shrill and terrifying scream suddenly pierced the silence.
