Chapter 709

"Bravo! Great speech!” However, Newton excitedly patted Jasper on the shoulder, nearly causing
Jasper to barf. Justin fell silent for a moment, then chuckled and offered encouragement, saying, "Good, I'm glad
you're determined. I wish you all the best in winning Alyssa back.” "Thank you, Justin,” Jasper muttered, but Justin's mention of winning Alyssa back left him feeling
uneasy. Newton took the phone and cheerfully greeted Justin, "Justin, how's life abroad? I've heard the
beaches are fantastic! When will you show me around and soak up some sun?" "Grandpa, there's no place like home," Justin replied with a laugh. "Considering your age, I'd rather
not have you take the long journey to Mosgravia. Perhaps we can meet in Solana City once I'm
feeling better.” Jasper felt miffed but kept his composure. "Hahaha! That's great, too. I so wish you could come home and reunite with your family!" Newton
sighed and added, "Don't push yourself too hard. I'm aware of your health condition, and I won't
blame you for staying abroad. I can visit you from time to time. "After all, it's just a ten-hour flight on a private jet. How tiring could that be?" After a brief chat, Newton finally hung up. Javier's eyes brightened as he asked, "Dad, did Justin say he's coming home? Is that true?"
Newton had a twinkle in his eye, but before he could respond, they were interrupted by Ben, who
knocked on the door and announced, "Ms. Alyssa, Mr. Landon, and Ms. Lauren have arrived.”
"What? Is Lauren here too?" Javier exclaimed. Alyssa and Landon entered, with Landon confidently holding Lauren's hand. He showed no sign of
embarrassment as if they were officially dating. Meanwhile, Lauren bashfully hid behind Landon with flushed cheeks. Alyssa, who had followed the
couple into the room, felt a tinge of frustration and helplessness but knew it wasn't right to break
them up. "Landon, what's going on?" Javier stared at their intertwined hands in shock. "Dad!" Landon greeted Javier with a grin, surprising everyone. Alyssa almost choked and shot a disapproving look at Landon. He had always referred to Javier as
"Uncle Javier" or "Mr. Javier,” but now he had called him "dad". Javier stiffened and questioned, "Landon, what do you mean?" Landon inhaled deeply and raised his and Lauren's interlocked hands. He launched into a rehearsed
speech. "Dad, Lauren and I are deeply in love. I'm head over heels for your daughter. My love for her
is deeper than the ocean and higher than the mountains ..." Alyssa and Jasper cringed at Landon's cheesy speech. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Findηʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "L-Landon, please stop. This is so embarrassing," Lauren interjected, unable to bear listening to
Landon's words. Her face turned deep red, and she squeezed his hand tightly.
