Landon med himself for what he had done.


    If only he could have a little more patience. If only he could consider Lauren a bit more.


    "Don''t rush it, Mr. Landon. Take it slow," Angelinaforted him softly.


    Just as she was about to leave, Lauren suddenly hugged her from behind and cried out, "Angie, don''t


    leave! Don''t leave!"


    "Madam Lauren, don''t be afraid. It''s Mr. Landon," Angelina quickly reassured her.


    "Don''t leave... Please..."


    "Alright, I won''t leave. I''ll stay with you." Angelina looked at the pale-faced Landon and felt both bitter


    and conflicted.


    With reddened eyes, Landon knelt in front of Lauren. He wanted to hold her hand, but she avoided him.


    "I know I was wrong. If I ever say anything harsh to you again... you... you can let Richie out to bite me,


    okay?"


    Lauren bit her lip tightly. Even with blood beads forming on her lips, she didn''t say a word.


    "Punish me however you want, but please don''t ignore me... Darling, please..."


    The formidable and fearsome Landon was reduced to nothing in front of his beloved.


    In this aspect, he and Jasper were quite alike.


    "You wanted to see your mom onest time, right? You can go."


    Landon choked up toward the end of his words. "Even if it''s not thest time, even if it''s two or three


    times... you can do whatever you want to do. I''ll apany you."

    "Landon... I''m sorry..."


    The weight of guilt bore down on Landon as he listened to Lauren apologizing to him in her soft voice.


    He hugged her tightly, feeling his blood heat up as if he had regained something he had lost.


    He would never demand anything from her again.


    The torment was more unbearable than killing him.


    That sudden falling stone sessfully gave Simon a concussion and required eight stitches on his


    forehead.


    Upon discovering that their highly anticipated eldest son had be a pariah, the Lynch couple was


    so frightened that they couldn''t bear it.


    Unable to withstand the shock, Sinead suffered a heart attack and was hospitalized.


    When Sean received a call from his father, he was at Heightsnew Vi. Learning that his mother had


    suffered a heart attack, he was full of anxiety and prepared to go to the hospital to visit her.


    "Sean, let me apany you."


    This time, Tatiana showed no signs of hesitation. She grasped his hand tightly and refused to let go.


    "Your family has so many troubles now. You alone might have a hard time handling it. I can be of a little


    help. Your mom''s sick. I''m more meticulous than you. I can surely take better care of her."


    Sean felt grateful but hesitated. "Taty, thank you... but my family..."


    Tatiana quickly pressed her fingertips against his lips. Smiling gently, she shook her head. "As long as I


    have your heart and you love me, I can face it, no matter how difficult. I''m not afraid. I have to meet my


    parents-inw sooner orter, right?"


    Sean''s breath caught. He pulled her into his arms and said affectionately, "I love you so much, Taty."
