Chapter 714

Upon hearing Landon’s words, Jasper choked on his water in surprise.

He let out a muffled cough and retorted, “Landon Harper, are you thinking straight? Lyse

can give you al checkup, you know. You shouldn’t be wasting Lauren’s time.”

Alyssa crossed her legs on the couch and stared disdainfully at the cheesy Landon. She

quipped, “So, you’re a chef now after retiring from your playboy days? Well, it’s pretty

impressive for you to turn over al

new leaf.”

“Ahem. This will be my first time cooking tonight. I’m kind of nervous,” Landon confessed.

In his 28 years, he had never set foot in the Harper Residence’s kitchen, let alone tried his

hand at cooking.

“Landon, don’t push yourself too hard,” Lauren chimed in with concern while gently

tugging at his sleeve.

Alyssa cast Landon a look of disdain and agreed, “Right. You shouldn’t drag Lauren into

the mess you’re

about to make.”

Jasper pressed his lips and added, “Remember, if the stove catches fire, the first thing to

do is cover it

with a pan, not douse it with water

“I-I got it,” Lauren replied as she raised her hand. She blinked obediently at Jasper.

Landon was annoyed. “I’m a college graduate, for fuck’s sake! Can you two lovebirds stop

treating me like

an idiot?”

Alyssa bristled at Landon’s “lovebirds” remark, but before she could respond, Landon

hurriedly left the

room with Lauren in his arms.

After the new couple left, silence returned to the room. This time, it was a mix of

awkwardness, flirtation,

and bitterness.

Jasper, having been advised against contact with water due to his injury, hadn’t had a

proper bath since

the incident and reeked a little.

Thanks to his good looks, he remained an eye candy despite his disheveled appearance.

To break the silence, Alyssa cleared her throat and flatly said, “Let’s have a serious talk

since no one’s

around.”

“How about getting into some serious action?” he suggested in a hoarse voice and looked

at her suggestively. He had violated her with the desire in his eyes without making any

physical advances.

“Hah. Jasper Beckett, remember that your life is in my hands now. You’d better behave. I

was the one who stitched your head, and I can undo it too,” she seethed. Her cheeks were

burning in shame.

He squinted and stopped teasing him. Then, he began, “Lyse, I know what you’ll discuss

with m want to look into the identity of that man who attacked Madam Lyla, and you want

to learn his motives. Am I right?”

Her eyes brightened. She nodded. “Yeah.”

“Lyse, I’ll take care of this for you. When I’m discharged…”

“I can’t wait. Don’t you know how badly Lyla has been affected by the incident?” she cut

him off coldly and cracked her fingers. “I had to put my investigation on hold because of

your surgery. Otherwise, I would have tracked down that man and taught him a lesson.”

Jasper looked at her with a tender smile, his expression unchanged.
