Chapter 1503

Despite complaining about discomfort, Alyssa nestled comfortably against his chest and sighed,

"These two really worry me."

"Lauren just had an argument with Landon. Is it appropriate to leave them alone now?" Jasper asked

in a low voice.

"Lauren still loves Landon. I know that. After this incident, Landon must also realize his mistake. Let

him go in and comfort Lauren. The person who caused the problem should be the one to solve it."

Jasper nodded, smoothing the strands of hair that had fallen beside her cheek with his fingertips.

"You're right."

"Angelina just told me that Cornelius will convene a shareholder meeting for the Harper Group this

month. He's officially appointing Landon as the president of Harper Group and letting him enter the

board of directors. Then he'll go to the Beckett family to propose marriage.”

Jasper's eyes flickered, but he didn't say anything.

"What's wrong? You don't look too happy. Do you not approve of this marriage?”

Alyssa lifted her hand to gently stroke his sharply defined face. "Don't be fooled by my anger

toward him. I really care about them. I just want them to be happy. I'm afraid Landon won't take

good care of Lauren, so I wanted to give him a warning.

"They love each other. How could I not want them to be together? If they can get married... Lauren

will have her own family in the future.”

"I'm happy. I just feel that as Landon’s best friend, I can't help much with his marriage,” Jasper said

helplessly, with a hint of guilt between his brows.

"He'll have to go see Javier to propose, and right now, I can't talk in front of that man. Plus, last

time... Landon stood up for me, which made Javier very unhappy.

"My narrow-minded father has always held grudges. If he gets the chance, he'll definitely make

Landon pay for it."

"So, you think Javier will hinder your best friend's marriage?" Alyssa blinked.

"It's not that I think so. It's certain." Jasper smirked coldly. "I have no hope for Javier's character.”

"I've been thinking. It's best to settle their marriage as soon as possible.”

Alyssa, with her meticulous thinking and genuine concern for Lauren's future, had a more thorough

thought.

"As you know, Javier won't agree to this marriage easily. At the Jesseltons' party last time, Landon

embarrassed Javier in front of so many Solana City elites.

"If he agrees to marry his daughter to Landon, he'll feel like he's become the laughingstock of the

entire Solana City. Others will only think that the Harper family has control over him. How could the

proud Mr. Javier bear that?

"Now, while Grandpa is still strong, let him take the lead and push forward this marriage.”

Jasper widened his eyes at her words. As if rewarding her, he grabbed her around her waist. "Lyse,

you're so clever. Why didn't I think of that?

"Grandpa likes Landon very much and even sees him as his grandson. With Grandpa taking the lead,

Javier won't be able to obstruct!”

When Landon entered the room, Lauren was weakly leaning against the headboard. Her eyes were

dull and lifeless, while her gaze was vacant.

A surge of heart-wrenching pain overwhelmed him, almost suffocating him. He had a hard time

even breathing

Angelina stood by with a bowl of chicken soup, wanting to feed Lauren. But no matter how she

persuaded her, Lauren refused to open her mouth.

"Lauren..."

Upon hearing Landon's hoarse call, Lauren seemed to be stimulated. She immediately closed her

eyes tightly and clutched her head, curling her thin body into a trembling ball.

Landon stood stiffly by the bedside, feeling as if a huge stone had been smashed onto his heaving

chest. Tears of regret and heartache swirled in his eyes.
