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 inteced his


    fingers with hers, not speaking a single word.


    He contemted 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


    and Jasper some alone time. They had gone through a lot."


    "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


    "I do, but I can see you every day." Lauren was confused.Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    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. Sheplied. "I will bake Alyssa a cake. She likes desserts. I


    will bring it to herter."


    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.


    "Huh? Are we expectingpany, Landon?" Lauren was in Landon''s arms, blinking in surprise.


    Landon frowned.


    He rarely hadpany. 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''te back for a while.


    Then, both of them were startled by the thud from the entrance.


    "Lauren, wait here and don''te 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 inbat, found herself effortlessly pinned down by a striking man. Her hands were


    restrained against the wall.


    "This is a great vi. I quite like it."


    Axel squinted his eyes and scanned the ce. His sharp vision caught Landon''s surprised expression,


    and he smirked. "Maybe I should get one too. Then, we can be neighbors."
