“Then… did you catch him?”
“Of course I did! I caught him myself, too!” Landon was obviously going to toot his own horn in front of his lover.
“You’re amazing, Landon!” Lauren chirped.
“Hehe! I have to be in order to protect you, no?”
“You’ve caught the bad guy. Does that mean Nina is avenged now?” Lauren asked cautiously.
Landon took a deep breath and nodded. “Mhm. That dear, kind- hearted friend of yours can finally rest in peace now.”
Lauren put her hands together and silently prayed for Nina.
This was the first time in days that Lauren smiled.
Since Lauren hadn’t fallen asleep, Landon wasn’t going to let her off easily.
Without even a shower beforehand, Landon hurriedly undressed himself while kissing Lauren, pressing her into the bed.
Lauren’s dainty lace sleeping gown was soon tossed onto the floor, leaving her naked legs shivering under Landon’s touch.
The sound of harsh panting and moans filled the room. The two lovers enveloped one another closely, both in heart and body.
After they were finished, neither had the energy to shower despite being covered in sweat. They didn’t mind, however, and held one another to sleep.
“I’m so sorry for making you wait, my dear,” Landon said softly. He often felt like he owed Lauren deeply. People with autism needed at lot of companionship, but Landon was always so busy and unable to provide that to Lauren.
Lauren nuzzled against his chest and shook her head.
“Don’t think just because I’m the eldest grandchild in my family that I’m all high and mighty. I’m actually not as high in status as you are. You’re Mr. Javier’s beloved youngest daughter. Plus, you have a big brother and sister-in-law to dote on you. On the other hand, I have to build myself up,” Landon said.
With a bitter smile, he continued, “If I don’t step into the family. business now, then I might not have any connections to my family in
Landon wanted control of the Harper Group before because of his father. But now there was one more reason-for his wife and potential children.
“Darling…” Lauren mewled, her tender voice melting Landon’s heart.” You’ve truly given me a lot already. I want nothing more than to see you happy and healthy.”
“No. It’s not enough yet.” Landon raised Lauren’s chin so their eyes met. “I don’t just want you to have all of me. I want the entire Harper Group to become your wedding gift.”
Lauren listened on dumbly, slowly falling asleep afterward.
After having his beloved in his arms, Landon, who had been exhausted, no longer felt that way.
Lauren was his, and he wanted to give her the best.
He never wanted to be a mere complacent playboy.
What Landon wanted was to avenge his father and make his grandfather pass the entirety of Harper Group to him, leaving Pre with nothing!
After returning to Solana City, Jeremy moved into Alyssa’s home. Previously, it was out of Alyssa’s pity, but now it was official.
The two had already dozed on the flight back for a couple of hours. After returning home, Alyssa swiftly cleaned up and went to sleep without so much as changing her clothes.
She was so tired!
Jeremy didn’t want Alyssa to sleep in discomfort, so he clumsily helped her change into sleepwear. Who knew Alyssa would be so
“Mm… tasty…” Alyssa mumbled in her sleep, licking her lips.
Jeremy smiled and tickled her nose. “Hungry little minx. I’ll feed your when you wake up.”
Jeremy suddenly recalled how Alyssa had gnawed on her lip just so she wouldn’t cry out on the plane. The thought made desire boil in his. abdomen..
Jeremy was a gentleman. He wasn’t going to take advantage of Alyssa.
After wrestling with himself, Jeremy satisfied himself with a kiss on Alyssa’s lips and tucked her into bed. He then left the room.
Rosie was asleep when Jeremy went to stay with Alyssa. When Rosie heard about their safe return, she cried tears of joy.
Thank you for tending to the house these past few days, Rosie,” Jeremy said to Rosie as he stood before her with an arm hooked around Alyssa’s waist. They appeared quite like young newlyweds. who had just returned from their honeymoon.
Alyssa and Jeremy cleverly knew not to reveal Jeremy’s injuries to Rosie. Rosie was old, so it was better not to make her worry.
Just then, the doorbell rang.
Xavier entered with two large lunch boxes. He was sweating and panting.
“Mr. Walsh! I’ve finally gotten the food you had me order from the Nouveau Table!”
“The Nouveau Table? My goodness! The waiting list for that restaurant is terribly long. It takes at least three hours of waiting.”
Alyssa swallowed a mouthful of saliva before complaining to Jasp Why did you have to make things difficult for Xavier?”
“Because you were craving good food.”
“When?”
“Last night in your sleep,” Jeremy murmured in Alyssa’s ear before chuckling.
Alyssa blushed. “I-It was just dream talking!”
“Thank you for your hard work. Why don’t you set the table with Rosie. and join us for breakfast?” Jeremy said with a smile.
“Join you guys?” Xavier was shocked by the suggestion. He hurriedly. shook his head. “I can’t possibly eat with you all, sir. It just won’t do!”
“Do as I say,” Jeremy quipped.
Xavier shivered lightly in fear. He was secretly overjoyed, however.
It looked like Jeremy and Alyssa’s relationship had significantly improved after their trip to Tsulu. Jeremy’s plan of being with Alyssa had finally come true!
Everyone sat around the table and enjoyed their meal, creating a merry atmosphere. There was no separation between employer and subordinate at this moment. They were all family.
In truth, Jeremy had always treated Rosie and Xavier as his family all these years.
After the meal, Alyssa and Rosie cleaned up in the kitchen while Xavier and Jeremy went to the living room for a discussion.
“Something’s happened while you were away from Walsh Group,” Xavier said in a low tone.
“Did something bad happen with our partnership with Jesselton. Incorporated?”
Jeremy had been resting deeply after his injuries. Alyssa kept a close watch on him throughout. She didn’t want him to expend too much. energy, so she confiscated his phone during his recovery. This made. Jeremy unable to get the latest information from Xavier.
Naturally, Jeremy had no clue what happened at Walsh Group.
“Nothing bad. It went surprisingly smooth.”
“Isn’t that a good thing?” Jeremy’s brows wrinkled. “Why do you look so concerned? Did something happen?”
“The person who made the partnership happen wasn’t Mr. Javier but Mr. Justin instead.”.
“My… brother?” Jeremy’s gaze darkened as his heart clenched.
“Yes. You weren’t present at the meeting, so Mr. Justin discussed with Jesselton Incorporated’s chairman on your behalf,” Xavier explained.
Xavier didn’t have a pleasant expression as he thought about this matter. He was hesitant to speak about Justin.
“Mr. Justin has never gotten involved in the company since he went to Mosgravia. Why would he suddenly appear at such a crucial time? It’s too coincidental!
“I don’t think Mr. Justin is doing the right thing. Isn’t this taking advantage of the situation and trying to one-up you, sir?”
“Don’t say that, Xavier.” Jeremy grew solemn. “Justin saved me. He barely escaped from those men’s clutches all those years ago and even grew ill because of it. I wouldn’t have become heir if it weren’t for his rescue.”
No one in the Walsh family wanted to mention that harrowing kidnapping incident.
Years ago, Justin and Jeremy were kidnapped by an internationally. famous syndicate and kept hidden in an abandoned, filthy warehouse deep in the countryside. A huge ransom was demanded in exchange. for their safe return.
