"M-Mr. Xander… He…" Phoenix stuttered but couldn't complete his sentence. He was drenched in sweat.
Laura's fury burned even more. "What did he say?"
"M-Mr. Xander… wants me to tell Cameron t-that he's only a toad and n-not good enough for you…"
"What else? Out with it!" Laura got angrier, clenching her fists so tightly that they were shaking; even her veins were popping at the back of her palms.
"He also said… if Cameron can't accept it, h-he should… attend your wedding in ten days…" The sweat on Phoenix's back kept trickling because he had never seen Laura this furious before.
"Then, what did Cameron reply?" Laura was trembling from anger, and it was as though the coldness in her eyes had turned into ice.
"H-He wanted me to tell Mr. Xander that he will attend the wedding… And also… maybe your wedding with Mr. Xander isn't going to proceed as planned…"
"What?"
Laura's chest tightened. She had expected Cameron to act recklessly, which was why she had kept the truth from him the whole time.
Once he learned about the truth from seven years ago and knew that she had never forgotten about him, he would do anything for her sake.
"This idiot," she thought. "Why is he always doing silly things? I've already told him that I don't love him anymore. Why is he still so dumb?"
Tears welled up in her eyes, but she quickly shoved her emotions aside.
Looking at Phoenix sprawled on the floor, she uttered in her coldest tone, "Remember this, you better bring Cameron's words to the grave with you. If anyone else knows about this, I won't let you off!"
