Chapter 592: Chapter 592

‘Is it because she’s Sophia Kirkman’s daughter?” Angelina asked.

Landon’s voice was hoarse when he answered, “Yes.”

“But if you truly like her, then you should try and work things out together.”

Angelina really wanted her boss to be with Lauren. She was such an endearing girl.

Angelina continued, “If you were in a relationship with Ms. Lauren, you’d literally save her from a life of suffering. Betty Beckett wouldn’t dare do anything to her sister anymore.”

“As if she dares to now.” Landon’s eyes darkened.

“But wouldn’t you feel much more secure with Ms. Lauren by your side all the time? Think about it-if Ms.

Lauren became your wife, that’d be the greatest slap in Betty’s face.

“She wouldn’t even dare come near Ms. Lauren anymore. Because if she did, she’d be waging war against all of us. You wouldn’t even need to tell me before I cut her tongue out!” Angelina explained.

She was this close to calling Lauren “Madam He cursed, pondering when they would finally have the chance to be together.

“But did you ever consider what it would mean for both our families if I married Lauren? Our families would be allied. Think about what would happen to our footing in the city,” Landon said slowly, turning around to face Angelina.

He was strangely reasonable as he continued, “I still have Preston to worry about, and I have no full control of the family business yet. Jasper’s situation in his family isn’t very stable either.

“If I married Sophia’s daughter right now, what would Jasper think of me? That power-hungry uncle of a man would take advantage and take full control alongside Sophia. I might even drag Jasper down in the process!”

“But sir “I will never forget how my father died, Angelina.” Landon sank into a nearby bench, clasping his head as if he were having a migraine.

Landon continued, “I will never forget how distraught my mother was the night news of my father’s death reached her how she stood outside in the rain the entire night, crying….

“I’ll never forget how, during my father’s funeral, my own uncle Preston grinned in the corner like some my way of that!”

Angelina knelt before her boss, gently caressing his quivering back.

“I’m going to take back everything that belonged to my father, Angelina, I can’t afford to make any mistakes before that happens!”

Alyssa arrived at KS World Hotel for work in the morning and to do the final check-up on the birthday celebration venue for Lyla. She’d just returned to her office when Jasper called her.

“Yes, Mr. Beckett?” she asked flatly, as if whatever happened last night didn’t.

“Lyse,” Jasper murmured.

“Who’s Lyse? There’s only Ms. Alyssa Taylor here.”

“Has Grandpa called you at any point today?” Jasper asked, making Alyssa tense up “Grandpa? No, he hasn’t. Why? Did something happen to him?”

“Not him, but Lauren.”

“Lauren?” Alyssa gasped.

“I didn’t go back to Seaview Manor last night. Only when Grandpa called earlier to ask me why Landon had taken Lauren away did I get to know something happened with my family.” There was exhaustion in Jasper’s voice, with a tinge of rage. “I tried calling Landon earlier, but none of the calls went through.”

“He’s done for now!” Alyssa hissed, slamming a hand on the table as she stood up. “I knew that jackass was up to no good when he brought Lauren to that hotel last time, yet you kept defending him! He’s nothing but a sick pervert!”
