Chapter 695
Penelope was so angry that she couldn’t think of anything else to say.
What had happened to her obedient son? Why had he become so rebellious after just a
few days off on his own? All for this silly little girl, too?
“Why are you upsetting Mom, Landon? You know she’s not in the best condition right
now!” Zoe held onto her mother, switching gears.
“How many women have you gone through all these years? Countless! The list is endless!
You’re only fighting with Mom over Lauren because she’s refreshing to you, nothing else!
“When you’ve had your fill, you’ll regret what you said to Mom today and for how angry
you made her!”
Lauren, who had been clinging onto her teddy bear behind Landon, shakily took a step
back upon hearing that. Pain shot through her heart, overwhelming her.
Landon had made her feel safe and secure for so long. Yet, for some reason, all she could
feel right now
was panic and fear …
“I’ve never asked anything from you since I was a kid, Mom. I always just did what you
and Zoe wanted
me to do as best I could,” Landon said, his voice tight

“I haven’t asked for anything from you in all my 28 years of life. All I want right now is to
be with Lauren.
Can’t you just… ”
“No. I can’t,” Penelope gritted out before Landon could finish talking.
“Over my dead body, Landon Harper. Don’t you dare think you two can be together or that
this retard can
marry into our family!”
“Mom!” Landon roared, eyes blazing angrily.
“You are my only son and the hope of the entire Harper family! How will I ever face your
father if you
marry someone like her?” Penelope cried.
She was nearly losing composure now. “Sophia Kirkman is a nasty, vile woman, and that
daughter of hers,
Betty, tried to hurt Zoe!
“The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, Landon. Don’t be fooled by Lauren’s acts and
tricks!”
Beside her, Zoe was cackling like mad internally, though she sported a worried look.
“You said Ms. Lauren was a mentally-ill fool before, Madam. How would someone like her
be capable of

Penelope’s insults.
“Be quiet! Who do you think you are?” Zoe cried, pointing angrily at her.
Zoe had long been irritated by Angelina, so she used this opportunity to vent out her
anger.
“I don’t need either of you to tell me what kind of person Lauren is.”
Landon took a deep breath, not wanting to speak to his sister or mother anymore.
“Nothing you two do or
say to me will change my decision. I want Lauren. That’s all.”
Penelope’s blood rushed frantically upon hearing this.
“Mr. Harper! Ms. Lauren is missing!” Angelina suddenly cried, looking around for Lauren.
“Lauren? Lauren!” Landon paled with fright, running off to look for her.
“You’re out of your mind, Landon! Out of your mind!” Penelope cried, clutching her chest
as she heaved heavy breaths.
“We can’t give up now, Mom!” Zoe gritted her teeth together as she watched Landon
leave.
“What else can we do now? He doesn’t even respect me anymore!” Penelope moaned,
disappointment flooding her.

“He still has to go through Grandpa. Do you think Grandpa would want a granddaughter-
in-law like her?”
Zoe’s gaze darkened. She had long plotted all of this. “We just need a chance to let
Grandpa see how
retarded Lauren is. That way, he’ll step in.”
“Will it really work, Zoe? With how stubborn your brother is, I don’t think even your
Grandpa would…”
“It will work,” Zoe said decisively.
“Landon only got so far in his life because he wanted to get Grandpa’s approval and to
make Dad proud
by taking over the family business.
“If he upsets Grandpa now, he will take back everything from Landon and give Uncle
Preston the company
instead.
“Wouldn’t Landon then be abandoning Dad’s love and the hope everyone has placed on
him?”
Landon instructed all the bodyguards under his family’s control to spread out and look for
Lauren.
Yet Landon it have g
sure Lauren was safe.
