Chapter 188: Chapter 169: What I Owed Her in My Past Life (1)

Hearing these words, the onlookers around cast angry glances at Landon Linden.

Landon’s face turned darker and darker...

His fists clenched tightly, with an urge to punch someone.

Damn it! That man cheated on her and made her sad?

"Hmph! You’ve done wrong yourself and still act fierce towards me! Want me to forgive you? Unless the sky is filled with stars now, otherwise, no way!"

Sarah Sterling continued speaking to herself, in the middle of winter, expecting a sky full of stars was simply impossible!

"Young man, apologize to your girlfriend! The wind outside is so strong, and she’s wearing so little, it’ll be bad if she catches a cold."

"Exactly! Girls need coaxing, she’s standing so high, if she falls, she’ll have to be sent to the hospital."

"As a man, you should be magnanimous, especially since it’s your fault..."

The onlookers chimed in one after another, and Landon’s face turned pitch black, as it was the first time in his life he was taking the blame for another man. If it weren’t for Sarah being drunk, he would’ve given her a good beating!

Too... embarrassing!

Sarah looked at Landon with hazy eyes, shuffling her feet on the car hood, seemingly eager for his answer.

In such a situation, Landon could only compromise.

He sighed helplessly, "What exactly do you want to come down?"

Sarah stared at him for a few seconds, only feeling that the man in front of her overlapped with the image of the person in her heart...

How could it be?

It must be that she’s seeing things because she’s drunk...

She blinked and her lips slowly curled into a smile, as she said dreamily, "Swear that you’ll never betray me again, be good to only me, love only me, and never leave me."

Damn it!

Who does she think I am?

"Hurry up and say it! Then the lovebirds will reconcile," urged the onlookers.

Landon could only repeat it with a grim face, while a million alpacas ran rampant through his mind...

"Hehe... so nice!"

Sarah joyfully opened her arms, spinning excitedly on the car hood, and as a result, she accidentally stepped off—

Landon quickly stepped forward and caught her.

As she fell, Sarah’s eyes were glued to the man just inches away, and she unbelievingly brushed her hands over his face.

Muttering to herself, "How can this be? How can this be?"

Then she vigorously patted his face, looked for another two seconds, and continued to fiddle...

Landon almost broke down, damn woman, who does she think I am?

Just as he was about to erupt, his mouth was suddenly blocked by someone...

In his ears, he heard the near-whisper of the woman in his arms, "Don’t look, just consider it a fleeting dream..."

It was the first time Landon had been actively kissed by a woman, it was exhilarating to the max, and his mind could no longer hold any other thoughts, he took charge and thoroughly captured her lips...

On the way back to the hotel, Landon was almost driving at full throttle, flooring the gas pedal.

Sarah clutched the handle nervously, her eyes staring as one car after another zoomed past and fell behind. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

The wind whooshed by her ears.

Was she riding an extreme sports car?

Arriving at the hotel entrance, Landon executed a perfect drift, parking steadily within the lines.

Sarah still sat inside, shell-shocked, her mind a bit scattered.

Casually getting out of the car, Landon helped her out and led her into the hotel.

The swift series of movements left Sarah feeling dizzy, and her stomach began to churn uncomfortably, she protested, "Slow down..."

But Landon couldn’t wait, he just wanted to get to the room quickly.

"I feel nauseous..."

Before Sarah could finish speaking, a wave of nausea surged inside her.

"Ugh..."

As Landon turned around, he was right in the line of fire...

The white, foul-smelling substance was all over his expensive suit, and he widened his eyes in disbelief.

The pungent smell followed.

Just as he was about to speak, Sarah stumbled and collapsed into his arms...

Landon felt the chill emanating from his entire body, sizzling outwards, if looks could kill, Sarah would have been dead a thousand times over.

Unfortunately, she blissfully passed out drunk.

Landon was quite vexed at this moment, he threw Sarah into the bathtub, clothes and all, and then stripped himself bare.

He tossed the dirty clothes straight into the trash can.

Despite washing over and over, he could still detect a strange smell on himself...

No matter what, tonight’s Sarah redefined his perception of her, also bringing him great novelty, and he swore tonight was his most infuriated night of the month!

He thought tonight would be a night of burning passion, but the leading lady passed out drunk...

When Landon was about to hand Sarah over to hotel staff and leave, he changed his mind as he reached the door, an alternative plan forming in his heart.

The Hawthorne Estate.

After dinner, Jason Hawthorne went to the study with his father to talk. After finishing the official matters, he got straight to the point, "Dad, the woman I want to marry is Twinkle’s mother."

Angus Hawthorne glanced at his son, "Twinkle’s mother?"

Jason nodded, "Dad, Stella Jennings and I broke up long ago, Mom knows too, but she just won’t admit it."

Angus retorted angrily, "Your mother was doing it for your own good!"

Jason pressed his lips, "Dad, you know my personality and way of doing things, I never fight unprepared battles, nor do I act on personal whim like some naive young boy. Every step I take is solid, leaving no room for future trouble."

Angus squinted his eyes, "You mean, even if you don’t marry Stella, the Jennings Family won’t turn against us?"

Jason nodded firmly, "That’s right, I won’t let personal matters affect my work."

Only then did Angus take a satisfied sip of tea, truly his son, carrying his manner of doing things: thoughtful, leaving no gaps in his plans.

It seemed that the position of Aegis Group’s successor was out of reach for anyone else.

"Even so, your mother and I both like that Stella girl, she’s the most suitable choice for a wife."

Jason continued to persuade his father, "Dad, I believe marriage should be like yours and mom’s, filled with love. I want to marry a gentle, family-oriented woman, and she’s Twinkle’s biological mother. Twinkle also hopes for our family to reunite as a trio. As the ancient saying goes: ’to manage external affairs, first stabilize internally.’ If I don’t even love my own wife, the household will certainly not be harmonious, and such a situation at work would not allow me to give my all."

He first elevated his father, making him his role model, then gave examples to illustrate...
