An eerie hush filled the air of another luxury lounge despite the deafening music reverberating from beyond its walls.Dressed in black from head to toe, Landon had left his silk shirt partly unbuttoned, exposing a glinting silver necklace that swayed in rhythm with his breath. Landon took a languid sip from his red wine and crossed his slender legs. He casually brushed away a drop of red wine in the corner of his lip with his fingertip. He looked leisurely and even insolent, but his eyes were an icy, unfathomable depth.A row of men stood in the lounge. Landon downed the red wine and snapped his fingers. His bodyguards split into two lines and revealed a badly beaten man on the floor who was tied up."M-Mr. Harper, it's my fault. Please …" After losing a few teeth to the beating, the man spoke with a lisp. Drool mixed with blood fell from his mouth."Tsk. Your blood is all over the floor." Landon shot him a disdainful look and arched a brow, questioning, "Do you know how expen

Zoe and her friends couldn't help but share a laugh at Lauren's expense. Lauren was darting around the room like a lost kite. Drunk customers shoved and pulled her around. Some perverted patrons even groped her. Her attempts at dodging the unwanted advances were met with reprimands. That was better entertainment than any comedy."Hahaha! That retard! Why has she not changed from junior high at all? Did she stop growing by then?" Zoe laughed and pointed at the screen. "Betty, I'm dying to know. Where did you stash that stupid bear?""I hid it at …" Betty laughed and whispered something into Zoe's ears.Zoe laughed loudly. "What a brilliant idea! That dimwit won't stand a chance of finding it anytime soon."…Lauren desperately scoured the space beneath the tables and was kicked multiple times by the customers. She suffered bruises all over her body.She stood there, dazed and trembling, wrapping her arms around herself for comfort. Her mind went blank at the funny looks of t

Landon almost melted from Lauren calling his name. He swallowed hard as he surprisingly found his blood rushing.The tears that rolled off her reddened eyes sent ripples across his heart. Almost instantly, he put aside the memory of that night when she left him behind."Oh, did Alyssa give it to you?" He scrunched up his eyes and wiped away her tears with his coarse fingertips.She gave him a hard nod. Her nose was red."Where? Did you lose it in the club?"She nodded again, her eyes red from crying."Don't worry. I'll help." He took her hand and led her to the stage with everyone's eyes on them.A dreamy light was cast on them, creating a picturesque scene.Lauren timidly looked at her feet but stole occasional glances at him. He might look unfriendly, but she had to admit that he was beautiful. He had chiseled and regal features that were unrivaled and a pair of hawkish eyes.She pursed her lips as she stealthily checked out his features and etched his face in her memory.

Landon led Lauren to another lounge, where the escorts were drinking with three other young men. The men were Landon's friends in Solana City.Lauren blushed at the intimacy among the strangers, to the point she wanted to bury her head in the sand. Landon had to drag her into the room.Upon their entrance, the men started whistling and cheering.One of them joked, "Oh! Hello there, future sister-in-law! Aren't you young and successful for nailing down Landon at this age?"She panicked and paled at the joke."Shut your trap! She's …" Landon stopped himself before introducing Lauren. He was reminded of Jasper's remark and quickly explained, "She's my sister. Stop with that nonsense!""Hey, Landon, her teddy bear is pretty expensive, though. You could easily rack up tens of thousands of dollars in spending per visit to ACE. "That will be hundreds of thousands a year if that lucky customer swings by daily! And this is all for her teddy bear? You can supply her a ton of teddy bears

"Long live, Mr. Harper!""Wow, he's really going big! I'll get myself an ACE membership as well!""And I'll renew my membership for two more years! He has my trust!"The patrons were deeply moved and thrilled.Almost instantly, Angelina received a text from the sales department, reporting that it was a record-breaking night for sales that year.Landon might be incredibly wealthy and generous with his money, but he also possessed a keen business acumen. While footing the bill of all the club's patrons might seem like a financial hit, it garnered him immense goodwill. His decision not only reinforced ACE's positive image but also encouraged spending, effectively killing three birds with one stone."I-It's a huge waste …" Flustered, Lauren stared at her feet and pursed her lips."Oh, did my lavishness make you uneasy?" He arched a brow in amusement. Indeed, he had splurged and created a huge fuss for Lauren that night. However, it had been a long time since he had felt genuinely

"This is Haffen Cellar's 1998 Merlot. It boasts a rich, deep shade of purple and offers a clean, intense, and full-bodied flavor profile. Notable notes include black fruits, caramel, mocha, and lemongrass. It also presents a balanced combination of tannins and acidity ..."Landon stared in amazement at Lauren. She wasn't just a talented painter. She was also an amateur sommelier! Despite his years of running nightclubs and owning private vineyards in Furancia and Vitelia, he couldn't hold a candle to Lauren's wine expertise.She was a woman of substance.…On the other hand, Zoe and Betty were in no mood for partying anymore. The only thing they wished was to barge into Landon's lounge and drag Lauren out for a good beating."Zoe, I told you so!" Betty was holed up in the restroom, tears streaming down her face. Half of her fake lashes were in disarray. She exclaimed, "There's definitely something going on between Lauren and your brother! You saw it, too, right? He made such a

The light and shadows danced on the two figures who were entangled. Lauren's tiny frame trembled in his arms. She did nothing at all, but her innocence was a deadly attraction for Landon, who had breached the first base.Under the influence of the alcohol, he went all out. Lauren watched a flash across her eyes before feeling the weight of a man on her.Her body sank deeper into the couch, turning her into an imprisoned bird.Landon started breathing laboriously, but he continued kissing her aggressively and toying with her lips.At that moment, the female singer on the stage sang in a low and sultry voice, "I've been watchin' you for some timeCan't stop starin' at those ocean eyesBurning cities and napalm skiesFifteen flares inside those ocean eyesYour ocean eyes …"Lauren was dizzy from all the kissing, and her eyes were glossy."Mmph …" She struggled to breathe, then started twisting and turning underneath him.

Landon's sister?The two guys who shot up just now exchanged a look before sinking onto the couch again. The one with a bleeding head managed a feeble smile and chuckled, "Haha, it turns out it's Ms. Harper! Please forgive me!""Landon, what are you planning to do?" Zoe was spurting fire at the sight of Lauren in Landon's arms."Zoe, what are you planning to do?" Frowning, he shot the same question back at her."Hah, how dare you interrogate me? Is it because I am in your way? Do you feel like I've thwarted your plan?" She glowered at him.Landon responded, "I'm fine with you hitting him with a bottle because he disrespected you. But have you forgotten what I told you? I told you not to visit ACE unless necessary. Even then, you need to inform me beforehand, and I'll make the arrangements."Acting like a stern, concerned older brother, he continued, "Why are you always rebellious? You can't let me have a moment of peace. ACE is a rowdy place. I can't protect you in time if anythi
