Alyssa vowed to take revenge for Sean, Nina, and every single one of Sophia’s victims.
Jasper lingered by the window at the end of the corridor. It was past midnight, but sleep eluded him. Hestared out of the window, his eyes red.
He had called Landon and asked him to meet up right away. After Landon had coaxed Lauren to sleep,he had instructed Angelina to watch over Lauren before rushing to meet with Jasper.
With a cigarette between his lips, Landon suddenly remembered that he was at the hospital. He put thecigarette out impatiently.
“Jasper, don’t worry. I’ve reached out to the gangs, and they will do anything I ask them to. Theattacker will lay low because the authorities are after him, but he doesn’t have an escape routeanymore. My ment will secretly look for him in Solana City three times a day. His fate is sealed.”
“Thanks, bro.” Jasper placed a hand on Landon’s shoulder. “Have you told Lauren about Nina?”
A troubled expression crossed Landon’s face as he rubbed his forehead and sighed.
“Damn it! I would never do that. How could I break such news to her? I had only met Nina once, but Icould tell she was a kind soul, not to mention she was close to Lauren. I’m afraid Lauren will crumble ifshe learns about Nina’s death.”
“Right. We can’t let her know,” Jasper replied. His chest tightened.
“Lyse is nearing a breakdown. If a strong woman like Lyse is struggling to cope with this, I can’timagine. how others would take the news.”

“God. Why does misfortune always befall the less fortunate?” Landon empathized with Nina’s plight.

Just like Alyssa, he had witnessed Nina’s death, and he shared Alyssa’s sentiments.
“It would be a relief if Nina’s grandmother agreed to relocate. It might alleviate some of Alyssa’s guilt,”Landon remarked.
Landon was no longer hostile. Perhaps it was because he had been living with Lauren. He hadsoftened and become more understanding.
He added, “Jasper, keep an eye on Lyse. Don’t let her wallow in her emotions. She needs company atthis time. Stop her from blaming herself, or she’ll lose her mind.”
“I know. I understand,” Jasper muttered, shooting Landon a wry smile.
“I noticed you’ve changed since you started dating Lauren.”novelbin
“How?”
“You’re more humane.”
“What the hell? Don’t you have anything good to say? What does that mean? Was I an animal beforethis?” Landon immediately protested as he raised an eyebrow,
“You were a devil before this, Jasper teased with a smirk.
“Get lost!”
