Chapter 595

Landon, especially, stared fixedly at the young woman in his arms as a sudden thought

surfaced in his

mind.

He wanted to bring Lauren home with him.

So, so much.

Alyssa was unbelievably shocked. “Lauren, you… want to…

“Landon…” Lauren mumbled, nuzzling into Landon’s chest and making his heart skip. “I

want to go home

with you.”

Alyssa and Jasper had no choice but to respect Lauren’s choice under her insistence.

Jasper then had Landon follow him to the smoking area to speak to him.

“What happened to Lauren’s ear, Landon?” Jasper asked, placing a cigarette between his

lips and offering

his friend another.

“What happened?” Hatred and cold fury flared in Landon’s gaze. “Your spoiled bitch of a

sister, Betty,

happened!”

“She’s not my sister. I only have one sister and her name is Lauren.” Jasper bristled at the

mention of

Betty. “So, Betty hurt Lauren?”

Landon nearly ground his teeth into dust. The cigarette in his hand almost broke in two

under his furioust

pinching. “If I did something to Betty, would you retaliate on behalf of your family,

Jasper?”

Jasper lit his cigarette and took a long puff. “I’ll pretend you never said that to me.”

His stance was clear as day.

“Thanks, man.” Landon grinned, delighted. He patted Jasper’s shoulder in solidarity.

“But no deaths, for your own good.” Jasper shot him a look.

Jasper continued, “If you really like Lauren and intend to build a future with her, then first

make sure to

cut off all those women you keep on strings around you-secondly, no more killing. You’re a

Harper, not some underworld warlord. I wouldn’t feel safe entrusting Lauren with you

otherwise.”

“I only think of Lauren as a sister, Jasper. Nothing more,” Landon hurriedly said, though his

heart betrayed

So did his wavering gaze and slightly trembling fingers, which Jasper was privy to.

The latter only responded lightly, “Ignore the feud between Sophia and I. Lauren may be

her daughter, but I’ve never held a grudge against her for that. She’s a good girl. I truly

hope she finds happiness.”

“Jasper… I… Landon choked out hoarsely.

“You may not be the best option for Lauren, but I can tell you’re serious and genuine about

her.”

Jeez, what was with this attitude? Why did Landon feel like he was getting schooled by his

future father-in

-law?

“Are you lighting that or not?” Jasper asked, reaching out for the cigarette in Landon’s

hand. “Give it back

if you’re not. It’s my last one.”

“I am, I am… “Landon quickly tucked it between his lips. “Say, when did you get so stingy?

You’re worth billions, yet here you are fussing over a cigarette? No wonder you’ve only

ever made one friend-me.”

“I’m trying to quit. I only go through half a pack daily now.”

“Why? You’re only 30 years old. At this rate, you might as well go vegan.”

“Because of Lyse.” Warmth and joy flooded Jasper’s heart as he thought of her. “She hates

it when I

smoke. It’s hard to quit, but I’m trying my best.”

“Tsk. Why didn’t you cut Liana out of your life when Alyssa was still married to you then?

You know how

much she hated that bitch,” Landon teased.
