Landon disregarded Javier's ridicule. He took a few deep breaths. He was still holding on to Lauren's hand. His hands were trembling due to his nerves. "I love Lauren. She is the only one whom I will marry. I will make her the happiest woman in this world." Upon saying that, he turned to look Lauren in the eyes. His loving gaze was as deep as the sea. He welled up with tears. "Please give us your approval for Lauren to marry me." Lauren's cheeks flushed pink. His words warmed her heart. Betty gritted her teeth as she watched them being lovey-dovey in front of her. Her expression was sinister and cruel. It was as if she was about to show her true colors at any second. She was about to transform into a monster of envy. Javier scoffed. He responded in a cold and sarcastic voice, "Mr. Landon, you have no right to stand in before me. I am already doing you a favor by conversing with you right here. How dare you propose marriage in front of me? How dare you think of marrying my d

The brutality of Newton's words certainly shouldn't be underestimated. He dealt Javier a mighty blow. As Javier's father, Newton was the only one who could give him a dressing-down. Betty hid behind Javier. She was as timid as a mouse. She didn't even dare to show her face. Alyssa hurried over to Lauren. She was still in Landon's arms. She said to her softly, "Don't be afraid, Lauren. I'm here. Jasper and Grandpa are here too." Lauren looked up. Her eyes were already swollen from all the crying. Landon's shirt was also drenched in her tears. "Alyssa…"Alyssa teared up at the way Lauren called her name. Her heart ached for her. Lauren choked back on her tears. She clung to Landon's shirt tightly. "I do not want to be separated from Landon." At that moment, Landon's heart wrenched. He enveloped her tightly, as if he intended to engulf her with his embrace."We're not going to be separated, Lauren. I will not leave you no matter what happens." Alyssa didn't know what to sa

"Finally," Jasper whispered.Alyssa smiled. "Yes, finally." "Landon, Jasper told me you've already informed Mr. Cornelius of your intention to marry Lauren. Is that right?" Newton questioned with a serious look on his face. Landon answered immediately, "I didn't just inform my grandfather. I've announced it to my entire family. Grandpa has agreed. My mother didn't oppose either." Alyssa and Jasper shot a look at each other. They understood what they were each thinking about. They knew that Landon was sharing only the good news. The process of convincing Cornelius must have been a difficult one. At the same time, he wouldn't have cared about whether Penelope approved of them. She wasn't the one who had the final say in their family. "Ah… That's good, then." Newton nodded. He was pleased. He chuckled in relief, "Please arrange a time for me to meet with Mr. Cornelius soon. We should meet since both families have now approved of this marriage. "If it's okay with you, I wi

Betty covered the receiver with her hand. Even though she was furious, she still tried to act sneakily. "Just a little while ago, Landon came to my house to propose marriage. Initially, my father wasn't in agreement. Then, Alyssa and Jasper showed up with Grandpa! "With a few words, Grandpa gave my father an earful. He even sealed the deal on Lauren's marriage with Landon! They are going to be engaged soon! Surely Landon will knock that idiot up right after. "What use would there be for you to come back after that? Are you going to celebrate becoming an aunt?" There was silence on the other end of the call. "Hey! Say something…""Don't you worry. I'm not the only one among the Harpers who does not wish to see Lauren marrying Landon. A marriage alliance between wealthy families may seem like a strong alliance, but in reality, it is full of weaknesses. A small misstep is enough to make everything fall through. "Jasper and Alyssa are hopeless romantics. How many more individu

Alyssa and Jasper had dinner at Newton's place. Landon and Lauren were with them, too. They chatted happily and enjoyed each other's company. The helpers cleared the dining table after they were done with dinner. Then, Landon asked Angelina to retrieve a thick stack of documents from a briefcase. He laid out the documents before Newton with the others as his witnesses. He filled the round table with his written proof of his ascendancy. It was as if he was trying to decorate the entire table. Yet, these were only the tip of the iceberg. Alyssa was someone used to extravagant spectacles. His title deeds alone were thick enough to make her gasp in wonder. "There's nothing to be envious about." Jasper smiled. He interlocked his fingers with hers under the table. In a soft and low voice, he said, "I have whatever he has, too. I own no less than him." "Well, even with the both of you combined, what you own is still less than ten percent of Winston's. There's nothing for me to be
