“Fuck me! Seriously? I’ve heard of the Beckett family daughter who never shows herself.
So this is her? Wow, she’s even prettier than I imagined!”
“That sister of hers, Betty, is always flaunting herself around like she’s some great beauty.
But now we
know her sister is far more beautiful than her!”
“Tsk…. Mr. Harper’s taste in women really is fine!”
Seeing how chaotic the situation was becoming, Angelina swiftly sent two bodyguards to
help create a
path for Landon amidst the crowd.
As the camera lights flashed in their faces, Lauren shyly buried her face in Landon’s shirt.
“Don’t worry. I’m right here,” Landon murmured in her ear.
“Okay.”
That simple response made happiness bloom in Landon’s chest.
“Is Ms. Lauren your new girlfriend, Mr. Harper?”
“Mr. Harper, are you two officially dating?”

All of Solana City knew just how much of a playboy Landon was. However, he had never
shown himself in public with any of the other women. Lauren was a first, implying just how
significant she was to him.
Landon stopped in his tracks and turned to face the cameras, holding Lauren closer. “That
depends on what Ms. Lauren thinks. She can say no, but regardless, I’ve chosen to be with
her.”
His words left the crowd stunned.
Landon was reputed to insist on his ways and demands, never caring what other people

“Mr. Harper,” Angelina said after some hesitation. “I’ll take care of the news that will break

“No, of course not.”
“Do you think I would care about what those lifeless, cruel, social justice-spouting idiots

No. Not in the least bit!
Angelina didn’t dare respond to that. She quickly turned back to the wheel.
Lauren was shivering lightly. Her gaze was filled with confusion when she met Landon’s
eyes.
“Landon, I-”
“Don’t say a word, Lauren. I made this choice myself. It has nothing to do with you.”

brushed her sweat-drenched hair behind her ear.
His eyes suddenly darkened, noticing the red mark on her cheek. “What happened to your
cheek, Lauren?
Who did this to you?”
“It’s no biggie… I cut myself is all.” Lauren tried hiding it with her hair, but Landon
grabbed her wrist,
stopping her.
Anger burned in his eyes as he grunted out, “Did Betty do this?”

“Please… don’t do that anymore, Landon. I don’t want to cause you trouble…” Lauren
said, worried sick.
Landon smiled bitterly, holding her hand and leaning down to kiss her forehead. “You don’t
cause me any
trouble at all, not a single bit. Everything I do is of my own free will.”
He would do this because he wanted her to be his woman and stay by his side!
