Lauren shook her head furiously. Her heart pounded. She stammered, “I-I got it. I will only do it with

you.

Don't be upset, okay?”

Landon had been treating her exceptionally well over the past few days. He had gifted her beautiful

clothes she had only seen on Betty before-clothes she had never owned.

What's more, the food at the private villa was delicious, even if it wasn't quite on par with Alyssa’'s

cooking.

In addition, Landon took care of her in every way, from drying her hair to feeding her and even

sharing a

bed, all without crossing any boundaries.

Since he had been so good to her, she couldn't bear to do anything that might upset him.

"Good girl.”

Her eyes shimmered like a starry night, nearly making Landon kiss her. However, a sudden thought

made him reassess his behavior. Was he acting like a pickup artist?

Still, he really wished that Lauren could stay by his side forever. The idea of her marrying another

man, being intimate with him, and having children tore at his heart.

“Mr. Landon, please come over,” Angelina called after receiving a phone call.

“Okay.” Landon approached her, inquiring, “What's the matter?”

Angelina glanced at Lauren before whispering, “I received a call from Xavier Hall, Mr. Beckett's

secretary. He informed us that Mr. Beckett's condition has worsened.”

"What did you just say?” Landon raised his voice, his heart sinking. Lauren looked in their direction.

“Mr. Hall didn’t go into the details, but he mentioned that Mr. Beckett is recuperating in his villa

without

anyone knowing.

“Mr. Hall secretly contacted me because he couldn't stand seeing it anymore. He wanted you to

check in.”

“Understood. Get the car. We'll leave shortly! Landon gave the order.

But he kept the truth from Lauren to avoid causing her worry. He simply told her he had to go

somewhere and might not return home that night. So he told her to go to sleep without waiting for

him.

“I'll wait for you to come home before I go to sleep,’ she responded, walking him to the door. She

didn't express her feelings openly, but her longing look spoke volumes.

Landon’s heart melted, and he offered her a faint smile. Then, he turned to the maid, Marie Moore.

"Mrs.

Moore, take good care of Ms. Lauren.”

Right after Landon’s car departed from the compound, Zoe's entourage of three luxury cars came to

a

stop at the entrance.

Gary whispered, “Ms. Zoe, we've arrived.”

“Wow, Landon is quite generous to that dumb bitch. Look at the size of this place! Is he planning to

turn it

into a newlywed home?” she muttered.

She trembled violently and cast an angry, disdainful gaze at the splendid villa.

Gary comforted her. “Please, Ms. Zoe, everyone in Solana City is aware of Landon’s character. He's

not

the type to fall for someone-I can vouch for that after all these years.

"He'll probably have a few days of fun with Ms. Lauren and then grow tired of it.”

Zoe's anger flared, and her face turned red as she vehemently protested, “You don't understand,

Gary!

This time is different.

“I know my brother better than anyone. He's completely infatuated with that dumb bitch. After all

the

women he’s been involved with, he probably saw something special in Lauren and hopelessly fell for

her.

“Isn't he worried about the possibility of producing mentally disabled offspring? She'll only taint

our

family’s gene pool!”

Hearing that, Gary fell silent.
