Chapter 167
Mrs. Rosie quickly corrected herself on the thought of Alice’s request, “I saw it when I helped youchange last night! I was shocked to see the huge bruise!”
Thinking back to the heart–stopping moment from last night, he recalled the warmth from Aller’s bodyas she rested in his arms. He remembered holding onto her tiny waist. A strong and unexplainabledesire to protect her arose in him.
Swallowing hard, he felt the urge rising in him, but it didn’t take long before he collected himself,
His expression hardened as he decided that Alice was not worth the sympathy because she hadslapped and mocked him, even after he put aside his ego lo apologize.
The family butler announced right then, “Mr. Jasper, Mr. Harper is here to see you. He’s waiting in theliving room.”
Jasper pursed his lips. “Tell him to meet me in the study”
Betty was elated at Landon’s unannounced visit. She hurriedly put on a high couture pink dress thatshe had recently bought. Next, she retouched her makeup and sprayed a little too much perfume onherself before skipping her way to meet her crush.
When she left her room, she found her sister, Lauren, hugging the annoying teddy bear and hoppingaround in the corridor. It was as though she was playing hopscotch.
Clicking her tongue with disgust, Betty went up to Lauren and shoved her.
“Ouch!” Lauren stumbled forward and toppled onto the ground, looking clumsy and pitiful. Even so, sheclutched onto her teddy bear. which she kept safe in her arms.
“Hahaha! Dear sister, I told you not to fool around in the corridor. Did that hurt?”
Belly was in a great mood. She flipped her hair and walked around Lauren. If she were in a bad mood,she would have stepped on Lauren with her heels.
Lauren slowly got up from the ground after Betty left. She had figured Betty out after these years. Aslong as she played dumb and avoided stealing Betty’s limelight, she would be safe from Betty’sscoldings and beatings.
“Ms. Lauren!” Mrs. Rosie rushed up to help Lauren. She felt sorry for the young girl. “What happened?How did you trip and fall on a flat ground?”
“I–I’m fine.” She pursed her lips. “I accidentally…”
“I saw Betty passing by. Did she push you?” Mrs. Rosie’s eyes were red with anger.
“No! And I’m fine. I’m leaving.” The mention of Betty’s name scared Lauren. She held her teddy bearand fled with pain in her body.
Mrs. Rosle sighed at the sight of the poor girl scurrying away.
After a stroll in the backyard, Landon ran into Betty on his way to the living room.
“Mr. Harper!” Betty put on her widest smile and purred in a saccharine tone. “Why are you here? Areyou here to meet Jasper?”
“Of course,” Landon replied mindlessly.
As a good friend of Jasper’s, he was aware of the Beckett family’s dynamics. Knowing that Sophia wasa difficult bitch, he extended his dislike of the woman to Belly as well and gave her the cold shoulder.
Only Betty was in the dark. She believed it was a matter of time before she captured Landon’s heartbecause of her good looks, her wealthy family background, and the fact that she made the first move.
She quietly tugged on her collar to lower it. She then held Landon’s muscular arm. With a pout, shetalked cutely to him, “Let’s go. I’ll bring you to Jasper.”
