"Did you mean that?" Cyrus jumped.
He turned around immediately.
He hadn't realized that Lauren was behind him.
She was hugging a brown fluffy teddy tightly and looking at him sheepishly.
Lauren looked adorable to him at that moment.
Cyrus's gaze becslightly deeper.
He laughed light- heartedly and answered in a warm tone, "Of course I meant it.Did you paint this?"
"Yeah, I did."
Lauren nodded.
“You must have put a lot of thought and emotions into it.It took quite a bit of effort, didn't it?"
"Mm...That's alright.The most important thing is that Landon likes it."
Lauren's eyes lit up at the mention of Landon.
She smiled sweetly, and her face blushed pink.
“Landon treatsvery well.There is not much I can give him, so I just did this painting as a gift.I'm
glad that he likes it."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCyrus’ heart skipped a beat.

Landon’s rights.Cyrus remained calm.He smiled slightly and responded, "
What did I do that was so indecent that warrants such defensiveness from you? “Why? Does being with
Landon mean that she doesn't have the right to interact with others normally? Are you saying that any
