Alyssa understood what Lauren was trying to say. She let out an awkward cough.

It had already been a while since Alyssa was married and had a long-term partner. So, she wasn't too embarrassed to talk about the matters in the bedroom.

She asked in a serious voice, "Lauren, are you ready to beca mother?" "A... mother?" Lauren was taken aback. She felt as if this word was far from her grasp.

To be frank, she wasn't ready.

She even felt like she was not yet an adult. Moreover, she had a condition. She wasn't even sure if her children would be affected.

That said, she knew that Landon yearned to start a family with her.

Each tthey made love, when he was at his climax, he would mumble in her ear, "Let's start a family. Lauren, Let's have a few children. Doesn't matter if they're boys or girls. | will love them as long as they're yours." A conflicted look cacross Lauren's face. "I. haven't thought about that. Do you plan to bear children for Jasper, Alyssa?" This one question was like a thin, sharp sword that stabbed through Alyssa's heart. A piercing pain spread through the fullness of her heart.

"lI am deeply in love with Jasper, both in the past and now." Alyssa's eyes welled up. Her voice bechoarse and tense as she suppressed the pain of regret. "But that doesn't mean that we must have children. It's enough foras long as | can grow old together with him." This was how she truly felt. Moreover, she was physically incapable of bearing her own child.

Unexpectedly, this tugged at Lauren's heartstrings.

"Actually. | don't really want to have kids," she confessed.

Lauren hung her head down low. She clasped her hands together and rubbed them against each other. This was a rare occasion when she spoke her true thoughts. "I'm afraid that my children will inherit my condition. | don't want them to beca laughingstock after | give birth to them.

"Also, | want to learn art. If we have kids, | won't be able to focus on my art. When Mom used to raise Betty and me, we had so many helpers and nannies looking after us. Yet, she was still occupied every day. I'm afraid that." Then, you should share your thoughts with Landon." Alyssa furrowed her brows.

Lauren shook her head immediately. "Landon wants to have children. He loves kids. | don't want to disappoint him..." The more Alyssa listened to her, the more heartbroken she felt. How many more heartfelt thoughts did this quiet woman have hidden within her? At the end of the day, Angelina was still Landon's employee. There were sthings that Lauren just couldn't express to her no matter how much she liked her.

However, this matter about having children was out of Alyssa's reach.

This was a matter between the couple. She would be overstepping if she tried to have a say in it.

She was reminded of the day when she and Jasper cby to see Lauren and got shut out by Landon. She also thought about the gloomy gaze in his reddened eyes that made him seem like he hadn't slept for days.

Jasper was usually oblivious toward the people closest to him. He never suspected that there was someone else.

Alyssa, on the other hand, was a sensitive person. She was extremely aware. Nothing unusual could escape her attention.

"Has Landon been in a bad mood recently? | noticed that you've been tiptoeing around him." Alyssa lowered her voice. "That day when you were in danger—did anything happen after you were rescued and brought back home?" Alyssa hit the bullseye about what was bothering Lauren. She pressed her pink lips together tightly.

She stuttered with much difficulty, "That day, at the hospital. Landon and Cyrus had an argument. Landon.

doesn't seem to like Cyrus that much. He gets unhappy whenever | talk about him.

"Cyrus is a good person, Alyssa. But so is Landon. | don't want them to be in disagreement. | want them to be friends." Alyssa was taken aback. Momentarily after, a smile cacross her face, and her dimples showed.
