Despite Landon's objections, Jasper brought an unconscious Lauren back to Crescent Bay.

The major incident had caused an uproar.

Newton's first reaction wasn't to grumble about Lauren embarrassing the Becketts. All he thought of was to bring his granddaughter back to his side to love and protect her. All he wanted was to shield her from the gossip coming from the outside world.

As Lauren had experienced a massive shock, she was injected with another shot of sedative.

With tears in his eyes, Newton watched as she slept soundly. Lauren looked as if nothing had even happened.

"Lauren... I'm the useless one. | wasn't able to protect you." Newton choked as he reached out with his trembling hands to caress Lauren's cheeks. He was filled with regret.

"Don't worry, Grandpa." Alyssa's eyes were red and moist. "Lauren isn't just loved by you, but also by Jasper and I. Jasper and | will get to the bottom of this." She clasped her hands together tightly and cracked her knuckles loudly. "I will find everyone who was involved in hurting Lauren like this. | will make sure that they pay a painful price!" Alyssa never went back on her words. She always walked the talk.

"This is the Harper family's handiwork." Newton might be an elderly with a frail body, but he had a clear mind.

He clenched his teeth and continued, "Even if they're not willing to have Lauren marry into their family. they still shouldn't abuse her like that! "What's so big about the Harper Group that they dared to bully my granddaughter? | don't need you to take any action on this, Alyssa. | will handle it myself!" Alyssa's chest tightened. She was worried about Lauren, but she was also worried that Newton's rage would take a toll on his health.

Ben knocked on the door and entered hurriedly. He had a concerned look in his eyes. "Mr. Newton, there's a call for you." "I'm not available to talk to anyone. I'm spending twith Lauren!" "It's Mr. Cornelius." Newton's eyes reddened. He snatched the phone from Ben and put it to his ear. "Now that it has cto this, what else do you have to say?" Cornelius sounded very friendly. "Mr. Newton, it's so heartbreaking that something like this happened.

The person who exposed the video is so despicable that it sends chills down my spine!" "You old bastard. Stop trying to pretend that you're innocent!" Newton's bloodshot eyes were bulging with anger. He gripped the armrest of his wheelchair so tightly that the veins on his hands were popping. "The video was leaked from within your Harper Group. | wouldn't be surprised if you were the one who orchestrated all this!" "Why, you!" Anger surged within Cornelius that he almost couldn't catch his breath. He coughed.

"I know what you're thinking of. You're as blind as a bat, so you don't see the good in my precious granddaughter. But Lauren also has other options other than marrying into your family! "lI wouldn't even have considered Landon if he wasn't the one who pursued her so relentlessly! You are a heartless bastard. Rather than finding someplace to wait for death, you misbehaved and exploited a 20-year-old young woman! "Aren't you ashamed? So what if you're from a big and wealthy family? You're just a damn bastard!" Newton babbled on without giving Cornelius a chance to argue.

Alyssa was thrilled as she listened to Newton's lecture. Yet, this was far from enough.

Alyssa was now the KS Group's president. When it cto business dealings in the future, she would obstruct Harper Group's ways and take away all their projects and resources. Bit by bit, she would suffocate them within the confines of Solana City until they perished.

She couldn't care less even if Landon becHarper Group's president in the future.

Harper Group was of utmost importance to Cornelius and Preston. The more they were concerned about it, the more she would want to ruin it.

That would be the price they had to pay for messing with Lauren! Cornelius regained the evenness of his breath. In the end, he was not going to pretend to comply with Newton.

He argued back with Newton, "Hah... For the sake of Landon and Lauren, | was just calling to check up on you.

Instead, you treated my goodwill for ill intentions and gavesuch a dressing-down? "You don't think that Landon is worth it. Since your granddaughter is so sick and crazy that she has no clue what's going on, she's also not fit to marry into our family. This marriage is over! If you have so much tand energy to bicker with me, you might as well take Lauren to the doctor!" "Hey!" Cornelius hung up speedily.

Newton was so enraged that his face puffed red. Ben served up shot tea to him immediately. At the stime, Alyssa helped to massage Newton's head to help relieve him of sof his emotional pressure.

Alyssa's gaze was frigid. "Grandpa, Cornelius simply called you to break off the marriage alliance between both families. He was just trying to provoke you.

"Don't be mad. Just let him bluster. Their tears will csoon enough," comforted Alyssa.
