Chapter 989: Chapter 989

Landon was shocked. His mouth was slightly agape for a while.

“Jasper, have you realized that you actually have a masochistic tendency? You’ve got the inclination to become a henpecked husband.

“At this rate, you’ll have to surrender all your credit cards. Damn, will I be the one to foot the bill now every time we go out?”

“Had you not been the one who has been footing the bills whenever we went out before?” Jasper asked nonchalantly.

Landon was rendered speechless.

Indeed.

Jasper was a complete homebody with no recreational hobbies other than work, exercise, and boxing.

From what he remembered, Landon had always been the one initiating everything.

He often visited Seaview Manor with a driver and bodyguards to take Jasper out. Jasper rarely took the initiative to plan anything.

But Landon was happy with it and had no complaints.

Although he lost his father at a young age, he knew he had received plenty of love from his family. On the contrary, Jasper seemed to have everything, yet nothing.

So, Landon hoped to bring as much joy to Jasper as possible, even if it was fleeting. He didn’t want Jasper to live constantly in the shadows.

“Landon, I actually enjoy the feeling of being controlled by Lyse.” Jasper squinted his eyes and smiled.

It shows that Lyse cares about me. I wish she could handcuff us together 24/7 so I could stick to her daily. I’m willing to be deprived of lifelong freedom for Lyse.”

“What the hell? Hold on, dude. What you’re saying sounds like a psycho’s manifesto.” Landon rubbed his arms, feeling goosebumps. You won’t like being controlled.

You’re unruly. You don’t understand this feeling.”

Jasper smirked before teasing Landon, “You’re lucky you chose my sister. Lauren is gentle and timid.

She wouldn’t dare to control you, let alone bear to control you. If it was any other woman, could they even tolerate you?”

“Hmph! The fact is that numerous women like me. I can find ten in one year,” Landon grumbled defiantly.

“Oh, so you’re proud of that?” Jasper’s dark eyes swept coldly over Landon’s face.

Landon gasped, lowering his brows. “No, no… I dare not.”

“Let me remind you-if you dare be disloyal to Lauren or mistreat hel Lyse and I won’t go easy on you.”

Landon immediately raised three fingers. “I, Landon Harper, swear to God that I’ll cherish Lauren forever. I’ll only have her and love only her. Or may I be struck by thunder, and the Harper family go bankrupt, and I’ll have to beg for food on the streets!”

Noticing Jasper’s silence, he quickly added, “I’ll get a vasectomy as soon as I get back!”

Only then did Jasper finally speak. “Alright, I’ll ask Lyse when I get back. She knows a lot of doctors.”

Landon pouted and felt like crying.

Turning around, Jasper sneaked a glance at him with a smile.

The two stood quietly for a while. When Jasper’s troubled expression eased a bit, Landon couldn’t help but ask, “What’s going on with your father? Why does he suddenly want to visit your mom?”

“I don’t know. Who can say what kind of shock he might have experienced?” Jasper’s anger surged again, his jawline tensing.

“It has been 20 years. He never mentioned my mother, not even once. It was as if she never existed in his life. Now, he suddenly remembers her, talking about debts. Belated affection is worthless!”

Landon fell silent and took out a cigarette. Then he jokingly said, ” Although you’re much better than your father, more manly and responsible, belated affection is worthless… Well, like father, like son.

Jasper’s face darkened instantly.

A true friend indeed. Landon’s words pierced straight through Jasper’s heart.

“Yeah, I know I was wrong in the past. I know I’ve disappointed a g woman. So even now, I’m making up for Lyse. For her, I’m willing give everything, even my life.”

When Jasper closed his eyes, the vivid image of his mother jumping off the balcony played in his mind.

A sharp pain struck his head once again.
