Jasper's face turned pale. "Lyse..."
"I'm joking. Look at you." Alyssa pinched his face again. Jasper appeared so gaunt. Her heart ached.
"You're so skinny now. Are you trying to upset me?"
Jasper's face still bore the remnants of mottled tears from the night before. He tightly interlaced his
fingers with hers, not speaking a single word.
He contemplated again. Then, he decided not to mention it anymore and covered Alyssa's lips with a
sweet, long, and deep kiss.
He remembered the pain and suffering she went through. He promised himself that he would break a
bone and use the rest of his life to repay her.
Upon waking up, Lauren was informed that Jasper and Alyssa were there. An excited smile adorned
her beautiful and elegant face.
She wanted to see Alyssa, but Landon hugged her from behind to stop her. "Darling, let's give Alyssa

"Hmm. But I miss Alyssa so much." Lauren's eyes welled up with tears as she was filled with
anticipation.
"Don't you miss me?"
Landon turned Lauren's body around to face him and looked at her aggrievedly. "I have been so busy
last night that I hadn't gotten a shut-eye. Don't you miss me?"
"I do, but I can see you every day." Lauren was confused.
Landon pouted his lips. He was speechless. Landon thought his honeymoon phase was over. He was
still pouring his affections on Lauren, but she had treated their love like an old married couple.
Landon panicked and held Lauren by her waist, restraining her. Then, he forcefully parted her lips, and
their tongues intertwined. Lauren instantly melted in his arms with that kiss.
After a long time, they separated. Lauren was teary-eyed, and their lips were slightly swollen.
"Listen to me. Wait a while before you say hi to Jasper and Alyssa, okay?" Landon caressed Lauren's
lips with his finger. He was satisfied with her passionate reaction.
"O-Okay."
Lauren felt dizzy and weak from the kiss. She complied. "I will bake Alyssa a cake. She likes desserts. I
will bring it to her later."
Lauren wanted to show off her baking skills, so Landon had to make the arrangements for her.
Angelina quickly prepared the ingredients and appliances. Lauren rolled her sleeves up and went to
work in the kitchen with an apron on. Landon was mesmerized by her.
"Darling, let me have a slice." Landon sat on the countertop, leaned over to Lauren, and opened his
mouth wide.
Lauren felt cheeky and scooped a piece of butter with her fingertip. She caught him off guard, smeared
it on his face, and held her stomach while she guffawed.
"You cheeky little thing! I will lick you all over like this butter!"
As they bantered lovingly, the doorbell rang.

Landon frowned.
He rarely had company. Plus, only a handful of people knew about the home here.
"Angelina, please check who is at the door," Landon ordered softly.
"Okay, Mr. Harper."
Angelina went to check it out. However, she didn't come back for a while.
Then, both of them were startled by the thud from the entrance.
"Lauren, wait here and don't come out. I'll take a look!"
Landon made his way to the living room. When he saw who it was, his eyes widened, and he gasped.
Angelina, skilled in combat, found herself effortlessly pinned down by a striking man. Her hands were
restrained against the wall.
"This is a great villa. I quite like it."
Axel squinted his eyes and scanned the place. His sharp vision caught Landon's surprised expression,
and he smirked. "Maybe I should get one too. Then, we can be neighbors."
