Zoe sneakily raised a brow. "Of course, dear Uncle Preston."

"The board meeting is around the corner. Your grandpa will officially announce Landon's appointment as the president of Harper Group. After that, he and Lauren Beckett will get engaged.

“Hah! Your brother is successful in his career and relationship. | guess our show has come to an end." Preston shoved a cigarette between his lips and moved it up and down.

"Who said so? The show's about to start!" Zoe snorted. “My dear niece, what do you have in mind?"

“An idea struck me. Perhaps we were working toward the wrong direction all along." Zoe lazily leaned against the headboard and suggested chillingly, "Landon Harper is a tough nut to crack. If so, why don't we work on Lauren Beckett instead?

"For one thing, she's dumb. She's been a loser since middle school and is easy to manipulate. All | need to do is to appeal to her conscience, convince her with facts, and explain the consequences. She'll change her mind about the engagement if she truly loves Landon."

Preston grinned widely. "Oh, appealing to her and convincing her? What a creative way to describe ‘threatening Lauren Beckett!" "Gosh, all that matters is you understand my intention. But..." A troubled look crept up her face.

“Landon keeps that bitch under tight protection. | don't have her personal contact, and | can't get near her in any way, even if | have a brilliant plan."

Preston thought about it and smiled. "That's simple. | will send my men to monitor them. When she's alone at home, I'll let you know.

“Landon is at his busiest now. | don't think he can juggle everything. He'll slip up at times." "Well, I'm happy to work with you, Uncle Preston." Zoe flashed a conniving smile at him.

Landon eagerly went home after wrapping up that day's work. His exhaustion went away at the thought of Lauren awaiting him at home. He felt aroused just thinking of her adorable expression, bright eyes, tiny waist, and alluring body.

It was not an overstatement to say that Lauren was the source of his energy. "Darling!" Landon instantly hugged Lauren and engaged in a hot and steamy kiss, even when Angelina was right by their side. Lauren responded to him, accompanied by throaty moans. Her soft body pressed tightly against his.

"Ooh... Darling, you smell so good, and you taste so sweet." Landon reluctantly moved away from her moist lips and kissed her on the forehead. "Tell me. Did you miss me?"

She pursed her lips and nodded shyly. "You're about to be my wife. Why are you acting shy around me?" Landon lovingly pinched the tip of her nose.

“Madam Lauren is too shy to express herself. She missed you a lot.” Grinning, Angelina revealed, "Since afternoon, she asked me when you'd come home for a few times. Even | feel anxious. | nearly brought her to the office to look for you."

“A-Angie, | did not." Lauren grasped the hem of her dress and blushed hard.

"You did, darling. | want you to miss me!" Landon acted like a teenage boy to get what he wanted. He placed an arm around Lauren's waist and insisted, "After we're married, you have to wait for me at home every day. Promise me that, in 10 or even 20 years, you'll still be as clingy as you are now."

"Okay. I'm fine with it as long as you like it." She nodded shyly. Lauren's submissiveness was the wet dream of all men. Angelina couldn't help but smile again. Thanks to Lauren, she had a chance to witness Landon acting all lovey-dovey.

After changing into loungewear, Landon gracefully sat by the dining table. Lauren and Angelina stared intently at him. Sensing their eyes on him, he rubbed his face and asked, "Is there something wrong with my face?"

Angelina explained, "Mr. Landon, you've changed. In the past, you never changed your clothes before dinner, and you'd never sit in a prim and proper way."

Lauren nodded. "That's right. Landon, you are elegant. You're getting more like Jasper."

"Is that so?" He sat up straight and mercilessly tore a drumstick off the grilled whole chicken. Then, he bit into it and started munching heartily. "Who made the grilled chicken? It's delicious!"

After eating the chicken drumstick, Landon belatedly realized that Angelina had cooked up an oyster feast for everyone that night.

"Mr. Landon, seafood won't fill you up. Eat more of the oysters to boost your stamina." Angelina politely placed the largest oyster on Landon's plate with a knowing smile.

He jokingly glared at Angelina as he clutched his fork harder. He thought, "| have no probleny Witrdsek Gust deniindve the time for it lately. Does she have to whip up this feast to boost my stamina?" The content is on NovelDrama.Org! Read the latest chapter there!

After the hearty dinner, Landon had a lot of work waiting for him, but he sat on the living room rug and played the board game Lauren newly bought as though he had all the time in the world.

"That won't be appropriate, Madam Lauren. I'll do it."

However, Lauren stubbornly sat Angelina on the couch and ran to the kitchen.

After Lauren left, Landon's expression immediately sank.
