Ex-husband's Sweet Trap novel Chapter 34

However, Henry was not at all remorseful. He looked at his watch and said coolly, "Your three minutes is up. You'd better leave now, or I will call the police. I don't think you're here just for an interview."

After that, he looked at the security guard next to him and said, "If there's still here in 15 minutes, call the police."

"Yes, boss."

The security guard was stunned. The reporters were just doing their jobs, but Mr Maynard wanted to call the police on them. They were all in the same industry after all, was it wise to treat them like this?

After that, Henry walked to his car as if nothing had happened and drove away.

The reporters left behind looked at each other. Mr. Maynard said that he would give them 15 minutes to leave. They weren't sure if he was serious about calling the police on them.

Luz leaned against the window and peeked downstairs. The reporters were gone. She double checked for any hidden ambushes and heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, she felt a little disappointed. This was actually a good chance to become famous.

She packed up her things and went downstairs. Once she was sure no one was around, she waved down a taxi. She took a quick glance around the parking lot. The Maybach was gone. She wasn't sure when Henry had left.

At the same time, the Maybach was heading towards the Boone family mansion. Soothing music was playing from the radio. Henry smiled slightly.

Once the reporters were gone, she should be going home immediately.

The car made the last turn and was about to stop in a hidden corner, but he spotted a blue SUV parked in front of the house. His smile disappeared as he pursed his lips and glared at the car.

The owner of the car really had the nerve to appear all the time!

He turned off the music as his mood soured before lifting his eyes to the second floor of the mansion. Judging by the shadows cast on the drawn curtains, he could see a father and his child playing in the room. He could also hear them laughing.

A storm quickly gathered in his amber eyes. In the rear view mirror, a taxi drove over to the house at high speed.

Luz paid the driver and got out of the taxi hurriedly. She hoped that Logan wouldn't be too angry that she did not pick him up after his first day of school.

As for Declan, she might be able to have a good chat with him today.

Taking out the key from her bag, she quickly opened the door and walked in. However, such a normal thing became totally different in another person's eyes.

"Is she in such a hurry to go on a date with Declan?"

He muttered to himself coldly and narrowed his eyes dangerously.

"Luz Boone, don't expect to have a good life if I'm not having a good time myself. I'll let you know that once you've married me, you will never be another man's wife!"

The cold voice scattered in the wind, leaving only the exhaust from the Maybach.

Inside the villa.

Luz put her bag on the cabinet beside the door and tiptoed upstairs. Halfway up, she heard Logan and Declan laughing. The sound warmed her heart.

Usually, Logan was quite reserved and thoughtful when he was with her. He never asked about his father, and never asked her to play with him like a father would, but she knew that he had expectations.

She recognised that the first time Declan visited them in the US. Logan was just seven or eight months old at the time and didn't even know Declan, but he always laughed when Declan held him.
