Hearing that, Betty's mind whizzed. She scrambled up from the floor. "A-Are you able to chome? When will you return? Are you back to take revenge on Landon?" Zoe hissed through gritted teeth, "I will give him trouble if he makes my life miserable. From the moment he slappedin front of Alyssa, Jasper, and the high society of Solana City, | stopped seeing him as my brother.
He's just my enemy now!" "Right! Landon has crossed a line. How could he abandon his sister even before he marries Lauren? Not only that, Landon is turning against his mom. Imagine if he marries Lauren. What will happen to you and your mom?" Betty sniffled. She then started fanning the flames and backstabbing Lauren.

She added, "You lost your mom's backing. You have no power without her. All you can do is watch your stupid sister marry into wealth and step all over you." That reminded Betty of the halcyon gemstones that were taken by Landon, which would eventually end up as Lauren's assets. Quivering in hatred, she felt extremely disgruntled and dissatisfied.
Betty thought that, as Javier's eldest daughter, she was the one who carried her parents' expectations and enjoyed their affection. How did she end up in such a sorry state? Even that fool, Lauren, had surpassed her in life.
"I will never see Lauren marry Landon! That'll never happen!" Betty scowled resentfully.
"I share the sthought, but you know Landon. It's impossible to make him give up on Lauren. That's why we need to plan this carefully so that he will utterly give up on her." Zoe chuckled maliciously. "Looks like we'll be working together once more.
"Have you learned something from your mom's issue? “Ee to pin all your hopes on somebody else. Take your revenge by yourself. It's going to feel cathartic!" Betty had picked up Zoe's undertones. Zoe wanted to work with Betty just to be safe—so that she could have someone to blif things went wrong.

She said to Zoe, "There's no point discussing this now. Let's talk when you're back." When Jasper and Landon left the Seaview Manor, their luxury cars waited for their owners by the entrance. The Seaview Manor was not hto Landon, but it seemed that Jasper, too, no longer considered the place his home.
"You should have toldLauren loves this stuff. | can get my hands on as many as | can for her," said Jasper as he gazed at the heavy bag in Landon's hand. "Why would you give Lauren Sophia's possessions? It's so icky." "If we don't take these away, they'll fall into Betty's hands! I'd rather crush these stones than hand them to that dunce!" Landon looked smug. "It felt so good seeing her red in anger and holding a hammer! Hahaha! She must have been driven crazy after losing something that was nearly hers!" Jasper grinned as he shot a helpless look at his friend.
The look in Landon's eyes softened. He sighed. "Lauren doesn't care about gemstones, to be honest. She has been feeling awful after visiting Sophia. She even feels remorseful toward you.
"So, | suggest we sell Sophia's stones and donate the money to a new charity fund named after your mom. It might not mean much, but it's better than nothing. At least Lauren will feel better." Jasper's chest tightened after hearing that. What he feared had ctrue. He worried that Lauren would blherself for what Sophia had done to him, potentially straining their sibling relationship.
He said, "The grudge between my mom and Sophia is in the past. Besides, Sophia wasn't even pregnant with Lauren when she joined the Beckett family. Lauren has nothing to do with it."
