"Cyrus." Lauren lifted her pretty face.
"Lauren, thank you for agreeing to help. I'll wait for you at the station tomorrow. Jasper and Lyse will take you there." Cyrus' heart melted. His hand itched to reach out and gently pat her head.
But ultimately, he restrained himself by clenching his hands tightly.
Just then, Lauren parted her lips and said, "There's no need for that. | can draw it." "What? You can draw it?" The three of them were shocked.
"That man left a deep impression on me. | won't forget his face, no matter how much thas passed." Lauren took a deep breath to steady herself. "I'm quite good at drawing portraits. | think instead of describing his features, | can draw him myself for a more accurate representation." To focus without external distractions, Lauren went upstairs alone to work on her drawing while the other three patiently waited in the living room.
After shesitation, Cyrus finally couldn't help but ask, "Lyse, did Lauren and Mr. Landon break up?" "It was Lauren's decision." Alyssa sighed, and her beautiful eyes were clouded with concern. "But | think Landon won't let go. He loves Lauren deeply." Cyrus tightened his grip on his cup. His voice carried a hint of melancholy as he said, "And Lauren loves him deeply too." "With Landon's personality, it's inevitable that there will be another heart-wrenching entanglement," Jasper expressed his concern.

Losing Lauren, Landon might spiral into a hysterical frenzy. He wouldn't let any Harpers who harmed Lauren off the hook. He wouldn't spare himself either.
Alyssa could tell Cyrus' feelings for Lauren. After thinking for a moment, she spoke calmly, as if she had reached a decision.
"Cyrus, if you're not too busy, why not take a few days off and join us to spend twith Lauren? With an extra person around to liven things up, she might feel better." Jasper glanced at her discreetly, knowing her intentions.
"I'll definitely be there if Lauren needs me." Cyrus' lashes fluttered as he tried to restrain himself. "But right now, she needs you and Landon more than she needs me." Alyssa fell silent.
She wasn't deliberately trying to matchmake Cyrus and Lauren. She just wanted everyone around her to be happy. She couldn't bear to see her brother suppress his emotions and suffer from lovesickness.
Tticked by.
After what seemed like an eternity, Lauren returned to the living room with a sheet of paper. She handed over her portrait to the three of them.
They gathered eagerly and flipped the paper over.
On the pristine white paper, the man's gaze was as cold as blade, his eyebrows sharp, and his facial contours strikingly handsome. The drawing was extremely vivid.
Jasper stared at the portrait and couldn't help but marvel inwardly that it was indeed an impressively striking face.

Just as he raised his gaze, he noticed Alyssa and Cyrus staring at the portrait in astoneshment . Their expressions mirrored each other's.
There was shock, surprise, and disbelief on their faces.
"Lyse, Cyrus, what's wrong?" Jasper couldn't help but worry.
Alyssa's hand trembled uncontrollably as she held the portrait. Her eyes suddenly reddened.
"Lauren, are you sure this is what he looks like? Are you sure?"
