Chapter 636 

Still, one couldn’t help but find him to be much less enthusiastic than before. 

Lauren and Betty sat in front of their parents, with Lauren hunched tight around the teddy bear Alyssa had given her so as to comfort herself. 

Betty wore a cocktail dress that had just been released to the market recently, looking quite the model 

big sister beside Lauren. 

“Tonight is Mom’s big day, Lauren. Why didn’t you put on any makeup?” Betty asked, a faux grin on her face as she gently caressed Lauren’s long, sleek hair. 

“Do you not know how to? You should have told me earlier. I would have loved to help.” 

Lauren tensed up instantly, her lips pressing tightly together. 

“That perm I gave you before was such a good look on you. I could have given you one today, too,” Betty 

snickered. 

All of a sudden, Lauren slapped Betty’s hand away. 

Both Sophia and Javier were shocked by this. They had never seen their youngest daughter behave like. 

this. 

“Ow! What was that for, Lauren? It hurts!” Betty cried, acting like she was the victim. 

וי

Javier narrowed his eyes inquisitively, glancing at Betty. 

“What… What did you say?” Betty asked, astonished. 

“And I hate that perm you gave me… I hate it so much! Can you not do that to me anymore?” Lauren gritted out, her voice laced with hatred.

Sophia quickly changed the subject, holding Javier’s arm. “Javier, is … is Jasper really going to the Taylor family’s celebration and not to ours?” 

“I’m not sure.” 

“I don’t mean anything else, just that it might be for the best if he shows up.” Sophia said, playing the 

gracious card. 

“It would make more sense for Jasper to attend Mandy Lovelace’s birthday, given that it would help our family if we had good relations with hers. 

“But this is just Lyla Nelson’s birthday, who doesn’t even come from anywhere influential. I heard she had 

embarrassed herself in the entertainment industry when she was in her youth, too. 

“Who knows what nonsense the media is going to write if they find out Jasper is attending her birthday 

celebration?” 

Sophia’s gaze darkened as she continued, “Plus, Lyla is the least noteworthy wife Winston Taylor has. In 

fact, she’s no more than a concubine. I don’t think someone like her is worth the attention of Beckett 

Group’s CEO. What do you think?” 

For some reason, the term “concubine” made Javier deeply comfortable, even making him reminisce. 

about Jasper’s birth mother. 

“Lyla didn’t have any support back then, but now she has Winston Taylor. That means she’s no longer as 

helpless and lowly.
