Alyssa remarked, "Yup."
"Wow! How are you so talented, Alyssa? You're so unlike Jasper. Earning money
is the only thing he knows how to do!" Newton said as he gave Alyssa a playful
pinch on the nose.
Jasper turned green with envy. He was fine with Newton dissing him. But why
was he being touchy with Alyssa?
The trio crowded around the laptop. They focused on watching all that was
happening through the screen.
Alyssa saw that Landon and Lauren were being bullied. She became enraged.
She rolled her fingers into balls of fury.
"Grandpa, shall we go over now?" Jasper asked. His breathing was heavy.
Newton's face was glum. "Hold on a little while more," he urged.
Jasper and Alyssa were stunned.
"Landon is the one who wants to marry my granddaughter. Since this is so, this
will be a challenging test for him. There is no doubt about that."
Newton loved Lauren. Nonetheless, he was still able to maintain his rationality.
"This is just the first step that they are taking. Yet, they're already facing such a
huge hurdle. I'm sure that more challenges await them in the future.
"This time, I want to verify how much Landon loves Lauren. I need to see if he
has the capability to protect her.
"As far as I know, the Harpers aren't any more powerful than the Schmidts. They
are also a bunch of scoundrels. I need to ensure that Landon has enough
capability to defend Lauren.
"I need to make sure that he can keep her safe and secure if she is going to be
with him. Only then will I be able to entrust him with Lauren."
Alyssa and Jasper looked at one another. They were moved. They realized this
was how an elder cared for the younger generation sincerely.
As for Landon, he obtained Newton's absolute approval through his actions.
"As her father, you are unable to give your blessings. That's alright. They have
my blessings!"
Newton disregarded Javier completely. A warm, wide smile came across his face.
He waved at Lauren and Landon and said, "Come over here, Lauren and
Landon."
Landon steadied his breathing. He put his arm around Lauren's shoulders. They
walked to the front of
Newton together.
"Grandpa..." Lauren's eyes were swollen from all the tears. Yet, she was still well-
behaved. It was a heartbreaking sight.
Newton acknowledged her greeting. He felt a lump rise in his throat. He scooped
up Lauren's hand and held her hand tightly in his.
"Lauren, my dear. You are my favorite granddaughter. You. You've been through
alot”
Lauren shook her head. She had tears in her eyes. "I'm okay, Grandpa."
Betty heard Newton saying that Lauren was his favorite granddaughter. Her heart
dropped. Her face became twisted from all her anger.

speak, his eyes welled up with tears.

Before he could finish his oath, Lauren tiptoed and covered his mouth with her
hand. She stopped him from cursing himself.
"I know how you feel, Landon. You don't have to say anything else. I get you."
Silently, Alyssa wiped the tears from her eyes. Jasper took this chance to pull her
in by the waist. He whispered in her ear.
