Chapter 123

Laura gazed out the window, lost in thought.

“Ms. Jones, Otis has contacted Colonel Bailey. She said she clarified things with
Cameron, and he has already returned,” Peggy reported as she walked into the
room.

“Okay, noted,” Laura replied.

Her voice was tinged with weariness.

“Ms. Jones, what's wrong?"

Peggy immediately sensed something was off with Laura. Usually, Laura would
be pleased to hear such news.

“Alan said he's arriving in Yrando in a few days,” Laura revealed the reason
behind her mood.

She believed there was no reason to hide it.

“Alan?”

Peggy's eyes lit up.

“Is he coming back from the warzone overseas?”

“Yes,” Laura nodded.

Peggy couldn't help but feel joyful.

“Isn't that good news, miss?”

“But I don’t want to see him right now.”

Laura's tone conveyed a sense of distance and coldness.

“But he’s your fiancé, and you know how Alan feels about you. He must be
hurrying back from the warzone just to see you,” Peggy spoke highly of Alan.

In her eyes, only a man with genuine masculine charm like Alan was worthy of
Laura—unlike Cameron, who she thought was a cowardly braggart.

Peggy couldn't fathom what Laura saw in him to make the journey from Leving to
Yrando. And yet, she was constantly disparaged by him.

Alan surely wouldn't have let Cameron off easily if he had known about this. After
all, Alan wasn't just competent. He was born into a military family. His grandfather
was the deputy commander of the Leving military warzone, and Alan himself was
a vice marshal there. In Leving, such social status was highly regarded.

This was why the Jones family head, Boris, had promised Laura's hand in
marriage to Alan. If the two families were united, the Jones family’s position in
Leving could be solidified for at least the next

Century.

The consequences would be unimaginable if Laura broke off the engagement. If
Alan's family was angered, even the vast Jones family might be unable to endure
it.

“Alan is excellent and very dedicated to me, but there are many things you don’t
understand,” Laura said with a hint of helplessness.

Laura knew Alan’s character. She was aware that his feelings for her were merely
possessive. Besides, her heart had always belonged to someone else,

Peggy sighed, Imowing Laura didn’t fancy Alan and had clarified her feelings to
him. But Alan's stance was simple. He believed love could be cultivated, and he
didn’t mind if Laura didn’t like him.

else,

what life would be like after marrying
