Javier stormed in with a stern expression, exuding deep resentment. He was closely followed by Rory."The weather is so good today. Why do you look so gloomy? Don't ruin my day."Clicking his tongue, Newton shifted his gaze away from Javier's solemn face, showing clear annoyance toward him. "Seeing you makes my chest feel tight. It's like I've lost another two years of life."Javier paid no mind to banter with Newton. He went straight for Lauren, completely disregarding the presence of the Taylors. "Lauren! Come back with me now!"Lauren looked visibly frightened, her face turning pale. Instinctively, she clutched her teddy bear and stepped back.Just as Javier's hand was about to touch her, another hand with taut veins suddenly grabbed his wrist firmly, like a pair of handcuffs.Lauren's eyes widened abruptly as she looked at the tall figure standing in front of her. "Cyrus..."Cyrus met Javier's reddened eyes and smiled coldly. "Mr. Javier, please talk things out. You're scari

"I know you still have prejudices against Alyssa, but I'm certain of one thing. Everything she does is for the good of this family and the people she cares about!" Newton angrily pointed at Javier. "If you dare speak ill of Alyssa again, you won't be welcome at Crescent Bay anymore!"Javier was about to retort when Jasper and Alyssa walked in, hand in hand.They must have heard the conversation.Accustomed to such situations, Alyssa remained composed, but Jasper's chilling gaze fixed silently on Javier's face. It was obvious that he was furious.Javier gritted his teeth. Realizing it was best to leave, he grunted coldly and left with Rory."Grandpa, what happened?" Jasper hurried over to Newton, his gaze dark. "What's he up to now?""It's nothing. I've scolded him anyway." Newton waved it off.Alyssa smiled brightly, unconcerned by these matters."Alyssa, Mrs. Taylor and Cyrus visited earlier, and they just left. Cyrus took Lauren out."Mentioning Cyrus, Newton couldn't stop p

For Lauren, who seemed to have boundless wealth and privilege, the idea of going on a roller coaster had been a luxury she couldn't afford for the past 20 years.She was born to be a bird soaring in the sky, but her wings were clipped by others, and she was confined in a cage.Was it because of her illness? Was it just to prevent her from bringing shame upon the family?Cyrus' breath became heavier, and he couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke her soft hair.Lauren's heart skipped a beat, and she moved back instinctively.Such intimate gestures used to happen every day between her and Landon.But when someone else, even Cyrus, whom she trusted deeply, touched her, she couldn't help but feel flustered and uncomfortable, which inadvertently showed in her eyes.Cyrus suddenly froze, then forced a bitter smile.She still wasn't ready to accept another person's affection.Maybe it would take a very long time. Or perhaps it would never happen.Seeing that it was almost time

Watching Landon embrace Lauren, Cyrus felt a sting in his eyes and couldn't help but capture this scene on camera."I'm really curious, Mr. Cyrus. When did you find out?" Angelina, playing the pink rabbit, couldn't contain her curiosity for the first time."Perhaps it was my detective's intuition."Cyrus didn't tell her that feelings like love were something that couldn't be hidden, no matter how hard the person tried.The moment the dog character held Lauren in its arms as if she were a treasure, Cyrus knew that it was Landon."Please let Mr. Landon and Ms. Lauren stay like this a little longer. We promise not to disturb you anymore," Angelina pleaded."Don't worry about me. Lauren's happiness is all that matters." Cyrus was unaware that his voice was slightly choked when he spoke these words.Even though he felt reluctant, Landon still sent Lauren back to Cyrus. He was afraid of exposing himself if he continued."Why are you crying?" Cyrus handed Lauren a tissue, gently asking."Noth

Being Lauren's most trusted friend and protecting her by his side would also bring Cyrus happiness.Angelina had also been quietly following not far behind them.Recalling Landon's pale face when he left, she knew that something bad must have happened, and it left her feeling extremely anxious.Just then, Cyrus remembered how Lauren had stopped in front of a shop window full of dolls when they first entered. He thought she might find them inconvenient during the outing, so he thought of buying one for her before they left.Right now, they happened to be at the entrance of the store, and the dolls were still there.Cyrus' eyes lit up. "Lauren, wait for me. I'll be right back.""Okay." Lauren nodded obediently.Cyrus turned around and quickly walked toward the store.As he took a few steps, he thought about Lauren's social anxiety and how uncomfortable she would be without anyone by her side. Therefore, he gave up the idea of surprising her with the doll and decided to take her i
