Lauren covered her mouth with her hand. What did she just do?


    Ever since Landon got together with her, he had never touched any other woman. So, how could she


    touch another man?


    Was she... Was she dirty now? Did she betray Landon?


    "I''m... I''m sorry." After being at a loss for words, she could only apologize. However, she wasn''t sure if


    her apology was meant for Cyrus or Landon.


    "What are you sorry for, Ms. Lauren? I should be the one to apologize to you. I have been so busy that


    I haven''t showered in three days. I''m sorry if I stink."


    Cyrus smiled. He noted that Lauren looked naively cute.


    "Madam Lauren!"


    Upon hearing somemotion, Angelina hurried over. She was also surprised to see Cyrus. "Mr.


    Cyrus?"


    Cyrus normally had a low profile. There were only a handful of people who knew of him. Angelina knew


    Cyrus only because Landon had mentioned him. Otherwise, the awkward situation when Axel visited


    might have been repeated.

    Cyrus peered inside. "Are Lyse and Jasper at home?" he asked.


    He had heard about what had happened. Moreover, it had been a few days since hest saw Alyssa,


    so he was worried.


    "Ms. Alyssa and Mr. Beckett have gone out to run some errands." Angelina hesitated for a bit before


    politely extending an invitation. "Please,e in."


    Cyrus treated the ce like his own. He walked straight to the living room and plopped himself down.


    He then ced a document regarding Sophia on the table.


    Sophia''s hearing was about to begin. There were many detailed documents that Alyssa and Jasper


    needed to look through. That was why Alyssa had called him over to their ce tonight.


    "This is a nice house. It is more stylish than ours," Cyrus remarked as he observed his surroundings.


    He thought about how Alyssa had been staying here ever since she ran away from home. Based on his


    observation, Jasper hadn''t treated Alyssa badly.


    With a half smile on her face, Angelina responded, "Someone else said the same when they came the


    "Who was it who said that?"


    "Mr. Axel."


    Cyrus was pleased to hear that. "That sounds just like Axel. He has deep pockets. With my annual


    sry,


    I could probably only afford a toilet here."


    It was then that he noticed Lauren crouched anxiously in a corner. The sight of her made her look


    pitiful.


    "Did I scare you, Ms. Lauren?" Cyrus smiled at her.


    Lauren nodded slightly before quickly shaking her head instead. In her nervousness, she was grabbing


    at her clothes so much that they had be wrinkled.


    "It was my fault. Come to think of it, I was the one who took advantage of you. I''m very sorry."


    As someone who worked at the police station, Cyrus worked efficiently. He was someone who spoke


    directly without thinking too much about it.


    When Angelina heard the phrase "took advantage", her expression became stiff. She stared at Cyrus


    anxiously and tightened her fists!


    Right at that moment, the doorbell rang once again.


    Angelina suppressed her anger and walked to the entrance. She staggered upon looking into the digital


    doorviewer.


    "Is that Lyse?" Cyrus came up quickly behind her.


    He also inhaled sharply when he saw Winston''s face appear on the screen.
