"Okay, I believe you."
This is a sister he’s trusted for over twenty years, Landon Lawson never wanted to doubt her.
Vera Yates suddenly lifted her head, staring at Landon Lawson’s handso face, her eyes shining brightly as she wiped tears from the corners of her eyes, joyously saying, "Really?"
"Yeah."
Landon Lawson pursed his lips, coldly glanced at her, remained silent without saying another word, and turned to leave Vera Yates’s place. Vera approached him nervously, watching Landon Lawson.
"Stephen, after so many years, don’t you know well enough? How could I be that kind of person?"
"I know, I’m heading back; there’s still work at the company."
"Stephen..."
Vera Yates called him softly, her eyes flickering constantly in hesitation, as if she wanted to speak but held back.
"What do you want to say?"
"Tomorrow is Sienna’s birthday, and the Quinn Family is hosting a birthday banquet for her. You know my situation isn’t too good right now... can you..."
Vera’s eyes were filled with helplessness and hesitation, and the bitter smile made Landon Lawson frown.
"Alright!"
"Really?" Vera Yates was overjoyed, didn’t expect Landon Lawson to agree so straightforwardly, showing he still cared about her, otherwise, he wouldn’t agree to attend with her.
There was undeniable excitent in her eyes.
"Because the matter between Sienna and implicates you, it’s sothing I should do."
The woman, who was originally delighted, had her fervent blood turned cold by Landon Lawson’s words.
It turns out all of this is just because of Sienna, Landon Lawson only wants to make ands with her, not love!
These five years of companionship, are they all inferior to those few recent days since that woman returned?
Vera lowered her eyes in resentnt, gritting her teeth, wishing she could tear Sienna to pieces. From childhood to adulthood, whatever Vera wanted, when didn’t she get it? But now, she’s being suppressed by Sienna everywhere.
How is this fair? Sienna already has Axel Yates and Felix Orwell, why co back to compete with her for Landon Lawson?
And bringing along a cumberso burden!
Landon Lawson’s voice was sowhat cold, his deep gaze lingered on Vera for a few more monts, his low voice sounded, "Go back, your health isn’t good, rest more, and soday you should go to Miles for a thorough checkup. It’s been so many years, don’t leave any lingering ailnts."
"Will you accompany ?" Vera Yates asked softly, her deep eyes made Landon Lawson frown.
"The group is very busy now; Miles will take good care of you."
After speaking, Landon Lawson turned and left, without any hesitation.
Vera stood at the door, watching the back of the man leaving, her slender hands tightly clenched into fists, her shadowy expression made her look sowhat frightening.
Long gone was the aura of an actress.
"Now, even going to the hospital, he won’t accompany anymore? It’s all because of Sienna! It’s all because of you!" The woman said through gritted teeth.
Bam!
Vera slamd the door with force, shaking the entire corridor.
Ding!
The elevator door opened slowly, and a black figure stepped out of it.
Landon Lawson’s face was cold, his expressionless deanor made it hard to discern joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness. Glancing at the closed door, he turned and walked into the hallway.
Seeing the trash can placed in the hallway, his brows furrowed slightly, without any restraint, he opened the trash can, inside was a pink laptop.
The originally calm face finally showed a change.
If he rembered correctly, this laptop should have been given to Vera Yates by Miles.
Landon Lawson appeared sowhat impatient, directly opening the laptop to examine its contents.
An empty computer, with nothing inside.
Landon Lawson’s gaze beca grave, with an intriguing taste.
Sienna received a call from Landon Lawson and went ho early, opened the door, and saw Evan Quinn sitting obediently on the sofa, "Mommy!"
Seeing his little bitter face, Sienna gently chuckled and walked over to hold his chubby little body in her arms, placing her head on his little head, her mouth slightly curving into a smile, "Why the long face?"
"Look..." Evan pointed guiltily at the toy bear beside him.
Sienna looked over, her eyes slightly froze, "Why is it missing an eye? Who did this? Landon?" Sienna’s tone gradually raised, her expression wasn’t good, did Landon have a violent tendency?
Even if he couldn’t stand her, it’s too much to lay a hand on the toy bear.
How much does he hate her?
Sienna angrily picked up the phone, today she must talk to Landon properly.
Evan saw Sienna’s angry deanor and quickly reached out to snatch the phone away, his gaze was sowhat strange as he said, "There’s a surveillance cara inside this teddy bear..."
"Surveillance cara?"
Sienna raised her brows, her bright eyes gradually deepened, who could it be?
Sienna picked up the toy bear, the ter-tall toy bear, and placed it on the sofa without paying attention afterward, not realizing there was a surveillance cara inside.
"Who found it?"
"Daddy found it." Evan dared not say his idol had co to the house, if he let Sienna know, she might not speak so calmly.
"Landon? Isn’t this teddy bear a gift from him?"
Sienna clearly rembered this teddy bear was brought back by Nolan Shaw, presuming it was from him. But if it’s not, then who else could it be? Moreover, soone who could install a surveillance cara inside.
"It’s Vera Yates!"
Looking at Evan’s serious little face, not seeming to joke.
"I forgot to tell mommy, that bad aunt went to the kindergarten before, got stopped by Teacher Cole, this bear was her gift, I forgot it that day..."
Vera Yates...
She actually went to see Evan, that woman actually showed up... is she planning to harm Chloe?
Sienna suddenly looked seriously at Evan, "You must rember my words, in the future, stay away from Vera Yates, apart from these few people I trust, never go with any strangers."
Evan looked blankly at Sienna, "Why?"
"No... nothing, you just have to rember what I said." Sienna’s eyes were grave.
Evan gently nodded, although he didn’t understand why, but just listening to mommy would be enough.
Sienna cald her emotions, her hands cupping Evan’s small face, her serious look made Evan sit upright.
"Don’t ask about this matter, just rember, apart from these few trusted people by my side, never go with anyone else, got it?"
Evan didn’t know how long it had been since he last saw Sienna look so serious, though they were mother and son, more often they were like friends, but at this mont, Sienna’s words were unquestionable.
"Mommy, I know, I’ll definitely listen to you."
Evan nodded with pursed lips, seeing his agreent, Sienna finally breathed a sigh of relief, her clenched fists finally loosened, with marks left in her palm from fingernails.
