Chapter 119
“Ms. Joires)”
Archie and Madison rushed to greet Laura and Peggy as they arrived at the hotel entrance.
“Why are you still here?”
Laura’s brows immediately furrowed.
Madison was taken aback by Laura’s Icy gaze. She was momentarily at a loss for words.
Archie was clearly experienced in such matters.
He pot on a serious face and said, “Ms. Jones, we just ran into Colonel Bailey at the hotel entrance. She was here looking for Cameron!”
“Looking for Cameron?”
Laura’s expression shifted as she asked, “What does Lena want with Cameron?”
She was also surprised by the recent events.
Laura and Cameron left a minute apart. Cameron had gotten into Lena’s car and left before she could even approach to ask why.
Archie was eager to answer when Laura inquired about the reason.
He immediately said, “Ms. Jones, the thing is, Cameron got into some trouble. So, Colonel Bailey was here to personally take him away.”
“Got into trouble?”
Laura’s brows knitted even tighter.
“That’s right, Ms. Jones!”
Archie, seeing Laura’s expression, got even more excited.
He continued, “Colonel Bailey mentioned an issue with his personal records. She talked about the
crime scene and what happened on the mountain peak. She wants Cameron to admit to it.”
“His personal records? Crime scene?”
Laura was slightly taken aback.
She wasn’t across Cameron’s personal files and didn’t need to be. However, she quickly understood what Archie referred to as the crime scene. She figured that it must be the place where they were attacked earlier.
“The incident on the mountain peak?”
Peggy also showed a subtle change in her expression.
Chapter 119
Could it be that Cameron really did go to deal with the sniper on the mountain peak at that time? However, the timing didn’t make sense.
Peggy assumed that it must have been for something else. She felt that the perpetrator was clearly Just scared and went into hiding-
Peggy felt a surge of anger at the thought of this. She wished Cameron would be taken by Lena and locked up for all of eternity. That way, she wouldn’t be annoyed just by seeing him.
“Yes, that’s what Colonel Bailey said at the thu
Archie was overjoyed at their reactions. He even started embellishing the story.
“Colonel Bailey came all the way from the capital to deal with this matter. The guy must have done something severe. Madison and I waited here just to see the event unfold ourselves. It turned out just as we expected!”
“Yes, Ms. Jones, my boyfriend and I waited here just to confirm this matter. We didn’t want you to used and implicated by people with ulterior motives,” Madison also chimed in.
She was expressing their concern for Laura’s safety.
“So, you stayed here because you were worried about my safety?”
Laura looked at the two of them.
“Yes, Ms. Jones, we just want your journey to Yrando to be smooth and safe.”
Archie and Madison wouldn’t miss this opportunity to take credit and paint themselves in a good light before Laura.
“I see.”
Laura smiled slightly. But the chill in the depths of her eyes was barely perceptible.
She continued, “Alright, you can go back first. On the day I leave Yrando, I will personally deliver you a surprise.”
“Thank you, Ms. Jones!”
The two of them trembled with excitement at her words. Laura had promised that she would give them a surprise. They felt that they had hit the jackpot this time.
“Hmm.”
Laura just nodded slightly.
“Ms. Jones, we’ll be taking our leave then!”
