Landon's back bowed lower and lower as waves of emotions flooded over him—emotions he had suppressed for so long nowreleased all at once.
Lauren's eyes welled with tears as she reached out, her trembling hand finding its way to Landon's haggard face. With a gentletouch, she traced his features, pausing at his graying sideburns.
"|... 've become uglier, haven't 1?" Landon placed his calloused hand on the back of her hand. He gently nuzzled against herhand and tried his best to smile. "I'm not as handsome as before. Lauren, does that make you hate me?"

Alyssa, her heart tender, could no longer contain her emotions. Tears streamed silently down her cheeks.
Newton couldn't bear to watch any longer. He dragged Javier out of the room with him. Jasper and Alyssa followed them out ofthe room, giving Landon and Lauren some space to be together.
The lovers, reunited after a brush with death, had so much they wanted to share, even if Lauren couldn't express herself verbally.Landon held onto Lauren's hands tightly. His breathing was heavy, and his tears continued to fall onto the back of her hands.Their eyes met, and no words were needed to express how deeply in love they were with one another.
Lauren's lashes fluttered, and with her finger, she began to trace letters on Landon’s hand—Angie.
After the final letter was formed, Landon's fists clenched tightly, trembling with the pain of losing someone dear to him. His lipsturned downward as he struggled to suppress his grief. "You should rest, Lauren. When you've recovered, I'll take you to seeAngelina."

"| won't beat around the bush,” Newton began, his expression serious as he took a sip of tea. "Cornelius has passed away,Preston and Zoe have faced consequences for their actions, and Penelope is receiving treatment for her mental health overseas.Landon has kept his promise and resolved all the family's issues. Is there anything else that worries you?"
Javier looked down, clearly burdened by thoughts he struggled to articulate.
"For Lauren's sake, Landon has really sacrificed too much. Jasper and Alice told me about the personal bodyguard who grew upwith Landon. She sacrificed her life to save Lauren, bringing down one of the perpetrators with her."
Javier nodded, his expression grave. "That woman was Angelina. | know she worked for Landon from a young age."
