Chapter 769

Javier and Sophia were home at Seaview Manor. He was checking the news on his phone with a sour

expression.

Despite enlisting the top PR team in the nation to handle the scandal between Jasper and Zoe, online

discussions showed no signs of abating.

As the president of the Beckett Group, Jasper's reluctance to make a public appearance or issue a statement only fueled speculations, tarnishing his reputation.

Meanwhile, Sophia sat at the dresser, applying hair care products to the long locks she had invested time

and money in over the years.

Back in the day when she slept with Javier to advance her career, Javier loved caressing her smooth and

silky hair during their intimacy.

"Come here, Javier,” she commanded, turning around to gesture at him.

"What's the matter?” Javier replied, never once looking away from his phone.

“Come over. Touch my hair. I've been taking good care of them every day for you,” she purred with a

seductive twinkle in her eyes. “Touch it and let me know if it still feels the same as before.” “Sophie,” he began, only to pause. He couldn't bring himself to ask her if she was behind the attack on

Lyla.

Instead, he changed the subject. “Landon confessed to me and Dad about his love for Lauren.” "What? When was that?” Sophia asked, standing up with a dumbstruck expression.

“He told us when he visited Jasper in the hospital with Lauren.”

Sophia clapped her hands joyfully. “That's good news. Gosh! What does Dad think about it? He's watched

Landon grow up, and we are close family friends with the Harpers. We also share the same social status.

I assume he's supportive, isn't he?”

"You were busy matchmaking Betty and Landon before this and never paid attention to Lauren's matters. Why did you suddenly support the relationship?” questioned Javier coldly.

Sophia’s mind raced. She explained, “Javier, you make it sound like I dont care about Lauren at all She's my daughter. Of course, I care for her.

"Well, too bad Betty and Landon are incompatible. They're not meant to be. If Landon is interested in

good family.”

“Lauren might be dating Landon, but they haven't made it public. There's still a chance to turn things around,” Javier opined. “Things will only get messy if they make their relationship public.” “Javier, what do you mean? Do you not want Lauren to marry Landon?” Sophia asked worriedly. “Mrs. Harper visited our place to discuss Jasper and Zoe's marriage, but she went home empty- handed without getting to meet with Jasper. Didn't you see her expression when she left? She was so resentful.

“Landon is her only son. After what happened between Jasper and Zoe, she couldn't possibly agree to the marriage between Landon and Lauren,” argued Javier while impatiently rubbing his forehead. Sophia was taken aback. She replayed the scene and recalled Penelope's look of rage, realizing that Lauren might have lost her chance of marrying into the distinguished Harper family.

No. All wasn't lost yet!

Given that Landon was willing to marry Lauren and take the problem off their hands, Sophia resolved to

push the marriage through by all means.

With that in mind, she sighed sorrowfully and tiptoed to Javier. While massaging his shoulders, she whispered, “Javier, you've been in a bad mood in the past few days. You must be worried about this matter. I have a win-win solution that will solve everything.”

Javier mused, “And what is that?”

“Make Jasper marry Ms. Zoe, and everyone will be happy. We'll approve of Zoe in exchange for Mrs. Harper's approval of Lauren,” Sophia suggested, getting more excited and greedier as she spoke. Javier frowned with frustration. “Can’t you tell who Jasper is in love with? He has no eyes for anyone except for Alyssa Taylor. And you should know his temper well after 20 years of living together.” “Jasper might be in love with Alyssa, but it's all meaningless if she doesn't reciprocate.”
