Chapter 579

As a secretary cum bodyguard, Angelina frowned at Nina’s appearance and instantly

shielded Landon. Nina approached them and fell on her knees, rendering them

dumbfounded.

“Mr. Harper, would you please help Ms. Lauren? Could you?” Nina pleaded in tears as she

knelt on the

cold ground.

“Angelina, help her up.” Landon ordered. “Stand up, and we’ll talk.”

Angelina attempted to help Nina up, but Nina shook her head and refused to do so. She

begged, “I won’t

up unless you

you promise to help Ms. Lauren. I may be a humble servant, but I’ll use my limited power

to help her just this once!”

Landon’s heart grew heavy, and he demanded to know, “What is going on?”

Nina wiped away her tears and shuffled up to Landon. Then, she gingerly rolled up

Lauren’s sleeve. Landon and Angelina were stunned by what they saw next.

Lauren’s pal

arm was full of old and new bruises alike, enough to shatter anyone’s heart. Landon’s eyes

flared with anger, and his muscles tensed beneath his shirt.

He hissed, “Who did this to her?” Despite his anger, he went straight to the point.

Angelina recoiled at Landon’s reaction. Knowing him well, she knew he must be really

angry when he

spoke in curt sentences.

“It’s… It’s Ms. Betty’s doing!” Nina blurted out without consideration. “Ms. Betty has been

bullying Ms. Lauren at home. She thinks she can do so because she’s the favorite child of

her parents. She’s been hitting and cursing at Ms. Lauren like a devil!

“When Mr. Jasper is at home, Ms. Betty will hold back because she’s afraid of him. But he

rarely visits home due to his demanding job. He can’t do much for Ms. Lauren either.”

Landon’s frown deepened. Angelina’s fists involuntarily clenched.

“Mr. Harper, you’re Mr. Jasper’s closest friend. I can see you care for Ms. Lauren. Can you

help her and protect her?” Nina cried uncontrollably.

Landon inhaled sharply and promised, “Okay, I promise you.” He cast a determined gaze

upon his arms, feeling the weight of responsibility on his shoulders.

He added, “I will protect Lauren as long as I am around.”

With that, Landon whisked Lauren away from Seaview Manor, but not before humiliating

Betty in front of

the household staff.

The incident might have occurred behind closed doors, but Betty sensed that her authority

had been

undermined.

Why? Betty was envious that even Lauren, whom she considered lesser in appearance,

family background, and talents, had found herself a guardian angel.

She couldn’t fathom the reason Landon snubbed her for a mentally challenged woman.

Furious, she took out her anger on Nina. Not only did she order Nina to clean all the

manor’s washrooms that night, but she also docked Nina’s year-end bonus.

“That’s enough. Your expression now is worse than that Alyssa bitch. It’s no surprise that

Landon isn’t interested in you. Frankly, I am not fond of how you look now either.”
