Chapter 1727
“Landon, you're home early today," Jasper replied to Landon's greeting.
"Darling, I'm home. Why don't you give me a hug after a long day?" Landon beamed as he opened his arms at Lauren. The blackcoat, which was loosely draped on his shoulders, fell onto the floor, but he did not bother to pick it up.
Despite feeling oddly nervous, Lauren obediently went up to Landon and sneaked into his arms like an adorable kitten. Hewrapped his tall and muscular body around her, carrying with him the warmth from the car heater that seeped into her skin. Thewarm sensation helped soothe her emotions.
“Landon, don't be angry," she mumbled in a voice only audible to them."Hm? Why would | be angry at you for no reason?" he whispered in a raspy voice.
"|-I..." Lauren had learned to carefully ponder her words before voicing them aloud. After some thinking, she chose to keep herthoughts to herself.
"If you've done something to upset me, just give me a kiss, and | won't be angry at you anymore." Landon rubbed his lips againsther cold cheek.
Embarrassed to kiss Landon in Alyssa and Jasper's presence, Lauren still tiptoed and gave him a peck on the lips to avoidmaking him upset.
However, a peck was not enough to satisfy Landon. He pressed a hand on the small of the back, forcing her to kiss him deeper.
Angelina happened to serve the tea and desserts. Unfazed by the kiss, she smiled politely at the visitors. "Mr. Beckett, Ms.Alyssa, please have some tea."
Coughing awkwardly, Jasper handed a cup of tea to Alyssa. "Lyse, have some tea.""Oh, sure." She accepted the cup and looked away from Lauren and Landon with complicated feelings.
The kiss was supposed to be a sweet and loving scene, but Alyssa was plagued by a feeling that something was amiss withLauren, who seemed a little withdrawn and timid.
Lauren had lost her mother, and her deadbeat father was of no help. Her grandfather, Newton, was in such bad health and couldnot look after her since they rarely met up. As her sister-in-law, Alyssa decided to pay closer attention to Lauren's well-being.
After Landon and Lauren wrapped up their kiss, Jasper calmly remarked, "Landon, | need to have a private talk with you.""Sure. Let's go to my study." Landon, happy to meet his friend, went upstairs with Jasper.
