Female Novel
Chapter 1844
The maid who entered was Holly Lockstein, the best friend of the late Nina when they were working at Seaview Manor. Now thatLauren had moved home, Holly volunteered to attend to her.
"Why aren't you resting yet? It's late," Lauren addressed Holly gently.
"Ms. Lauren..." Eyes flickering, Holly finally said after some hesitation, "Mr. Landon has stood at the Seaview Manor entrance formore than two hours. | learned about this when | heard Mr. Durham talking about it with the others."
Lauren's pupils wavered. She felt as if someone had stabbed her in the chest and twisted the blade.
"Mr. Durham and the others kept it a secret because they didn't want to wake Mr. Javier. Even if Mr. Javier is asleep, it'll betrouble if Rory learns about it." Holly looked worried.
Lauren turned her back to Holly and switched on her phone. The phone vibrated nonstop as a barrage of notifications ofincoming calls flooded her screen. Landon had called her many times, but he only texted her once, writing, "Darling, | miss you."
Her tears fell onto the screen. His affectionate text had opened her wounds again. She thought she'd gotten used to losing him.Even if she hadn't, she thought she'd at least be calm at the mention of him.
All her efforts to numb herself had gone down the drain because of Landon’s text.
"Ms. Lauren, just sneak out to meet with him." Holly felt sorry when she saw Lauren crying.Lauren hung her head low and hunched her back.
Holly insisted, "You'll regret it if you don't."
"| can't change anything even if | meet with him."
"You should meet him if you cherish your relationship with him. | think it's cruel to break up with Mr. Landon without giving himclosure," Holly persuaded Lauren. "Even if you have to bid goodbye to him, you should wrap up the relationship nicely. Do it withthe grace of a Beckett."
Landon stood tall in the chilly winds, not once looking away from Seaview Manor.He occasionally let out a cough, and his stomach hurt, but none of it mattered as his soul had already separated from his body."Mr. Landon, take your medicine." Angelina fetched him some pills and a thermal mug.
He lowered his eyes and stared at the pills in his palm. Then, he slowly curled his fingers. When he unfurled his fists, the pillshad been crushed into powder, scattering into the winds.
“What's the point of living?" He smirked.
"Mr. Landon, stop messing around!"Feeling angry and bitter, Angelinacroaked, "Life is not j phahoub mMargatoe!
