Ex-husband Unmasked He’s a Billionaire?

Chapter 124
As dusk settled in, Laura's mood remained gloomy.
Seeing her distress, Peggy asked, “Miss, are you still worried about Alan's
upcoming visit to Yrando?"
“Yes,” Laura nodded slightly.
“So, are you planning to return earlier then?" Peggy inquired.
As Laura's secretary, Peggy naturally wanted her to be happy. However, she was
on Alan's side. In her eyes, Alan was infinitely better than Cameron, who seemed
ungrateful for Laura's attention. She believed that comparing Alan to Cameron
bordered on insulting Alan.
“We'll see. I'll try to delay my return as much as possible,” Laura said.
She wasn't ready to go back to Leving just yet. This trip might be her last chance
to see Cameron before her wedding to Alan in half a month. After that, she might
never be able to leave Leving again.
She had insisted on staying in Yrando despite Cameron's annoyance with her.
She wanted to ensure Cameron's well-being for the remaining time, which would
give her some peace of mind.
Moreover, Laura knew she couldn't let Cameron and Alan meet. She understood
both their
personalities, especially Alan's. So, she feared Alan would be aggressive toward
Cameron and that she wouldn't be able to stop him. She couldn't let such a
confrontation happen.
“Alright, Ms. Jones,” Peggy responded.
She felt uneasy about Laura's evident sorrow.
“And Peggy, you mustn't tell Alan about my meeting with Cameron, understood?”
Laura cautioned, prioritizing Cameron's safety despite trusting Peggy's
discretion.
“I understand. I won't tell Alan,” Peggy assured her, aware of her duty as Laura's
secretary.
“Okay. You can leave now, Peggy. I need some time alone,” Laura said while
massaging her temples.
She was visibly tired.
“Rest well, miss. I'll take my leave now.”
Peggy quietly left the room.
Once alone, Laura stood up and gazed at the bustling city lights from the hotel
window. Yet, within her, a profound sense of desolation and silence lingered.
Sometimes, she envied ordinary girls who could freely pursue their love. As the
Jones family’s heiress, she didn't even have the right to love freely.
Meanwhile, after leaving, Peggy decided to head to the convenience store
downstairs for a drink as she found the hotel's beverage selection unpalatable.

She felt no need for a bodyguard once she reached the hotel's ground floor, as
the convenience store was just a short walk away.
The automatic door swung open as she approached the store, greeting Peggy
with a cheerful” Welcome” from the speaker.
