Female Novel
Chapter 1498
"So what?" Landon shouted.
Lauren stared at Landon in utter bewilderment. Her reddened eyes widened as if they were about tonovelbin
tear through her eye sockets.
Knowing he had misspoken, Landon hung his numb hands helplessly in the air. He was at a loss and in
panic. "Lauren, I didn't mean it. I..."
He forgot that, despite Sophia's heinous crimes, she was still Lauren's mother.
He had always been ruthless and cold-hearted. Sometimes, even Angelina, who had seen all sorts of
bloodshed and violence, was afraid of him when he got angry.
He could decisively let go of many things that others cherish. He believed that if he could do it, others
could too. They just needed to endure the pain.
Suddenly, Lauren screamed. As if she didn't recognize Landon anymore, she pushed him away
forcefully while he was distracted and ran toward the door without looking back.
"Lauren!" Shocked, Landon felt his blood run cold.
"Lauren!"
Fortunately, Alyssa and Jasper arrived in time and intercepted the out-of-control Lauren.
"Lauren, it's me, Jasper! Please calm down!" Jasper tightly embraced his sister, his heart aching.
Seeing Lauren's pale face, already showing signs of convulsions, Alyssa made a decisive decision. "Do
you have any sedatives at home? Bring them out. I'll give her an injection."
Upon hearing the order, Angelina immediately went to fetch them, but Landon urgently stopped her.
"No! Don't give Lauren those drugs again!"
She was the woman he loved the most. How could he bear to stick needles into her body?
After using them once before, Landon had never given them to her again.
Lauren was such a lovely and lively woman. But once she was injected with sedatives, she would turn
into a fragile, delicate, and lifeless mush. He didn't want Lauren to suffer like that again.
"Don't give her the sedatives! I can comfort her!" Landon's eyes were red, but he still insisted.
"If you could, Lauren wouldn't be like this right now!"
Alyssa was a doctor and had lived with the Beckett family for three years. She knew exactly how to
handle such situations. So, she took a strong stance.
"Are you the doctor, or am I? Lauren is your girlfriend, but she's also my sister! Listen to me, Angelina.
Get the sedatives!"
Yes, Ms. Alyssa!" Angelina felt that Alyssa was more reliable, so she obediently followed the order.
After getting the sedatives, Jasper held Lauren tightly while Angelina helped to restrain her. It seemed
like two medical staff members were controlling a mentally disturbed patient.
Frowning, Alyssa skillfully injected the needle into Lauren's delicate, fair skin and slowly administered
the sedative intravenously.
Jasper's brows furrowed as well.
Landon, who loved Lauren the most, was like a powerless outsider at this moment. He stood by
helplessly, unable to do anything.
"Lauren..."
"What happened, Landon?" Jasper spoke sternly, like a parent.
"Did you let her watch the trial? Are you out of your mind?" Alyssa was also furious, joining Jasper in
confronting him.
