Alarmed by the chaotic scene, Landon approached him. “Jeremy, what’s going on? What are you burning?”
When Landon spoke, Jeremy tossed another item into the fire. Landon took a good look and realized it was a photo of Jeremy with Liana.
Jeremy questioned, “Did you bring me to this villa after I was drugged?”
“Yeah. This is the only place I know. You always hang out here, don’t you?” Landon replied.
Still confused about the situation, he confessed, “I couldn’t send you back to Seaview Manor after what happened to you. Bringing you to my place was out of the question. This villa seemed like the best option.”
Jeremy looked up. “And did you call Alyssa to come here?”
“Yeah. You mentioned her name when you were barely conscious. I wanted to help you as a friend, so I lied to her and got her here,” Landon admitted.
He scanned the surroundings and asked, “Hm, where’s Lyse? Has she left?”
A crash ensued. Jeremy angrily kicked the metal tin over, and sparks landed on Landon.
Landon hurriedly shielded his face with his arm, but the sparks had burned holes through his expensive suit, even burning off a part of his bangs.
“What the fuck? Jeremy Walsh, are you crazy? Do you want to set me in flames? This is not a sacrificial ritual!” Landon growled at Jeremy while he angrily put out the sparks.
Jeremy, still not fully recovered from his injury, rolled his fists and panted. His shirt was soaked i
“Huh?” Julien was surprised at how Jonah addressed him on a first-name basis.
“Will you stay here with Sean until he sends you home, or do you want to go with me?” Jonah asked sternly.
After a pause, Julien beamed at him. “You didn’t have to ask. I’ll choose you, of course.”
“I’ll choose you, of course.” Jonah felt a pang in his chest upon hearing the declaration. In the past, his ex- lover had uttered the exact words with determination. “Jonah, whatever happens in the future, I’ll stand by you. You’re the only one that I will protect with my life.”
The Rolls-Royce headed toward the hospital. Jonah hugged Alyssa tightly throughout the journey and patiently comforted her with a soothing voice.
“Jonah, I’m in pain …” Alyssa mumbled, her face buried in his chest.
Her heart ached as she cried.
“Lyse, tell me. Where does it hurt?”
She closed her eyes and pointed shakily at her heart. “It hurts here.”
Jonah was shocked. He breathed heavily and clasped her icy hand, knowing only Jeremy Walsh could inflict such pain on Alyssa.
“Jeremy!” screamed Landon, who tried to help Jeremy up from the ground. “What’s wrong? Why are you trembling like crazy? Is it cold for you? Jeremy?”
“Landon, do you know that…” Jeremy clenched his fists with a broken look in his teary eyes. “… the most hurtful thing for Alyssa is the memories of me and Liana hurting her. I knew it was over between me and
Alyssa when she saw the photos of me and Liana. We’re done.”
“Who said it was over?” Landon yelped, feeling sorry for Jeremy, who was suffering from a heartbreak.
He blamed himself, “This is all my fault! You are so busy, not to mention you’re still sick. You don’t have the time to dispose of the villa at all. It’s my fucking fault! I’ll go to Lyse right now and clear things up!”
Jeremy stopped him and shook his head with a bitter smile. “It all started because of me. What’s the point of explaining it to her? That will not change the fact that I’ve hurt her in the past.”
“Jeremy,” Landon gasped as he fought back tears.
No one had suffered as much as Jeremy in love.
After Landon tucked Jeremy in bed, Jeremy drifted to sleep in no time.
Jeremy’s PTSD was more severe than Landon had expected. Thankfully, Landon was the only one who witnessed it that night. He couldn’t picture the consequences if Jeremy relapsed in front of others. That might cost him everything he worked for in the past ten years.
When Landon descended the stairs, Xavier happened to enter the villa. Having heard about Jeremy’s behavior over a call, Xavier stammered, “M-Mr. Landon.”
Xavier was gripped by guilt and helplessness.
“It’s not your fault. Gosh, this is a problem… Landon mumbled, feeling the urge to slap himself.
-‘ll explain it to Ms. Alyssa tomorrow. I’ll resign if she refuses to forgive him,” Xavier said with determination while rubbing his eyes
“Oh, quit at You have worked with Jeremy for ten years. He’ll be a mess without you around,” Landon semarked poweriesuly

Xavier clenched his jaw and nodded solemnly.
After Landon had Jeremy settled, he returned to the home he shared with Lauren in great exhaustion.
On his way home, he recalled the scent in Jeremy’s room. As a player, he knew Jeremy had slept with
Alyssa last night.
Alyssa must have had feelings for Jeremy if she were willing to sleep with him. Landon was perplexed by her intense reaction toward old photos of Liana that Jeremy hadn’t had time to get rid of.
Was it extreme jealousy?
“Landon!” Lauren threw herself into Landon’s arms when he came home.
She wrapped her limbs around him like an adorable koala.
“It’s ‘darling,” Landon gently corrected her.
Blushing, she obediently called out to him, “Darling.”
“That’s right. Darling, I’ll give you a kiss,” he replied and gave her a loud kiss on the lips while touching her backside with a hand.
After a cozy cuddle in the living room, Landon led Lauren to the bedroom, where he began to undress her and led her to the bath.
She wrapped her arms around his neck and protested, “I’ll bathe on my own.”
“How tiring is that? I’ll give you a hand,” he teased her with a cheeky grin.
“Don’t. It’s tiring to take a bath with you because you’ll be all over me.”
“Hm, don’t you like that?” Landon raised a brow playfully.
“I like it,” Lauren admitted, her blush deepening.
Landon, who was so exhausted that he couldn’t keep his eyes open, felt invigorated and aroused upon seeing his lovely partner.
Soaking in the hot bath, he held her waist and made love to her. Lauren had become bolder since dating Landon. Due to their frequent intimacy, her breasts seemed to have developed as well.
Surprisingly, they were sexually compatible. Each time Landon made love to Lauren, he could set aside his worries and enjoy the moment. After all, Landon had taught Lauren precisely how to please him, and he was reaping the benefits.
After they were done, he emerged from the bathtub with Lauren in his arms. Then, he placed a towel around her and gently placed her on the sink. He dried her hair and wiped her body with the bath towel.
Lauren enjoyed being taken care of by Landon. Every time, she would close her eyes in pleasure and happily swing her legs.
However, that night, she noticed Landon was unusually quiet. He didn’t indulge in a dirty talk during their lovemaking. Something seemed to be weighing on his mind.
Lauren called out softly, “Darling?”
Landon gathered himself and beamed at her. “What’s wrong, darling?”
“Are you in a bad mood? Did something upset you?” Lauren inquired.
Unable to keep it to himself after seeing her concern, Landon blurted out, “Yes. It has something to do with your brother and your ex-sister-in-law.”
“Alyssa? What’s wrong with her and Jeremy?” Lauren asked worriedly.
After giving it some thought, Landon decided to be upfront with Lauren. Although they weren’t legally married, he treated Lauren like his wife. Besides, he believed that she deserved to learn the complicated dynamics in her family as a grown woman.
“Lauren, Jeremy made Alyssa upset, but it was all my fault. I don’t know how to fix their relationship,”
