Chapter 358
“You don’t approve?” Landon’s smile deepened.
Lauren’s eyes were downcast as she nodded.
“I think they deserved far worse, though.”
Landon couldn’t help but stroke her hair. “You’re Jasper’s sister. It’s only right that I stand
up for you when they push you around. I’ve gone easy on them this time. I didn’t want to
scare you.”
Lauren could feel the warmth of his palm on her head. She closed her eyes and nestled
into it, much like
a contented little kitten.
Betty just so happened to stumble upon this scene as she walked out from the main event
hall. She was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshocked to find her demure little sister all the way here.
“You bitch! I knew you were seducing my man!” she shrieked, then stormed up to them.
But she quickly
caught herself.
Landon was here. She couldn’t lose her precious image before him and make him dislike
her even more.
Betty had learned some useful things from Liana, so she could restrain herself even more
now.
She decided to hide in a corner to observe the two.
Landon felt a pang of sympathy as he observed Lauren’s disheveled appearance. Her
once-white dress
was now marred with mud and dirt. It was clear that she had run all the way in the rain.
He took off his red velvet coat and wrapped it around her shoulders.
Betty ground her teeth, her eyes narrowing menacingly as she seethed at the sight.
“Did you come all the way here in the rain? No driver sent you?” Landon asked gently.
“No one knows I’m here. It’s a secret,/ Lauren replied truthfully, never one to lie.
“A… secret?”
“M-Mr, L-” Lauren didn’t know what to call Landon, nor did she remember how they had
kissed fervently
all those weeks ago.
“You can call me Landon, Laurie. My name is Landon Harper. I’m your brother’s friend.
Calling me Mr.
Landon is kinda old, no?”
Landon … Landon Harper?

Lauren remembered how her sister had yelled and screamed at her for getting close to
this man. She quickly stepped back away from him, fearing for her life.
But Landon didn’t seem to notice her behavior. He held her cold hand and said, “I’ll have
someone help
you change into something warmer.”
“No… No need-”
“Don’t be shy. It’s only right that I take care of my friend’s sister. Come on.” He was about
to lead her away.
“Landon.” Lauren wasn’t so naive as to readily accept his actions, but she didn’t dare to
challenge him.
Do… Do you treat my sister like this too?”
Upon hearing that, Landon couldn’t help but scoff to himself. Betty didn’t merit such
treatment from him.
“No.” Landon beamed at her. “Only you.”
Meanwhile, Betty was screaming internally in the distance, glaring fiercely at her sister as
they left.
