Ex-husband Unmasked He’s a Billionaire novel Chapter 180

Chapter 180 

Laura slowly blinked open her eyes and felt a sharp dagger pressed against her throat. Memories of the parking lot ambush flooded back–she had been taken hostage. Yet, unlike eight years ago, fear failed to grip her. Now, her breathing remained calm and her expression stole, showing no fear. 

“Are you awake, woman?” Jack’s sinister voice broke the silence as he observed Laura regaining consciousness. “You woke up just in time to witness this man’s dilemma. 

Laura’s mind stirred. She looked toward the classroom door and saw Cameron standing with a sharp dagger at his feet. 

“Cameron, don’t worry about ine. Just kill him.” Laura’s voice was firm. “Even if you die, he won’t let me go.” 

“But if he doesn’t die, you will,” Jack sneered with a vicious smile 

His cold eyes bore into Cameron. “Make your choice. Will you plunge that dagger at your feet into your chest, or shall I slit this woman’s throat with the dagger in my hand?” 

“You heard her. She told me not to bother with her,” Cameron replied. 

He stared at Jack coldly and continued, “Besides, I’ve already said her life or death has nothing to do 

with me.” 

With that, he began walking toward Jack. 

“is that so?” Jack broke into a twisted grin as he pressed the dagger harder against Laura’s neck, drawing blood from her delicate skin. 

Laura closed her eyes and prepared for death. 

“Stop!” Cameron suddenly shouted, stopping in his tracks. 

Laura reopened her eyes and looked at Cameron with a trembling gaze. “Cameron, I told you, even if you do as he says, he won’t let me go!” 

“Shut up!” Cameron snapped, then turned to Jack. “If I do as you say, will you let her go?” 

“Heh, that depends on whether I’m satisfied,” Jack sneered. 

He was confident he had Cameron figured out. He believed that if Cameron didn’t care about Laura, he wouldn’t have rushed so swiftly to her rescue. 

Cameron took a deep breath and picked up the dagger from the ground. 

“Cameron, don’t listen to him!” Laura’s panicked voice pierced the air. “You idiot, who’s asking you to save me? Do you have a brain, you self–righteous fool? You’re such a moron!” 

At that moment, Laura unleashed a barrage of insults, desperate to dissuade Cameron from saving her. She had deeply hurt him seven years ago and didn’t want him to get hurt for her sake again now.
