Chapter 193
Meanwhile, in the presidential suite at the Caesar Hotel, Laura stood by the window, watching, the bustling scene outside with a cold expression.
Peggy stood behind her and reported, “Ms. Jones, Otis has already pulled through the life. threatening situation. Cameron has also woken up from his coma with no major issues for now.”
“He’s awake?”
Laura’s gaze softened slightly.
“Yes, Ms. Jones. Would you like to go see him?‘
“No need.”
Laura shook her head, a hint of sadness flickering in her eyes.
“But… If you don’t go see him, I’m afraid he might misunderstand you, Ms. Jones.”
Peggy hesitated before voicing her concern.
Previously, she had also disliked Cameron.
But after going through these incidents, especially when Cameron sacrificed his own life to save Laura, it deeply moved her.
Although he could be annoying, Cameron always stepped up when it mattered the most.
She didn’t want to see the relationship between Laura and Cameron deteriorate any further.
“Let him misunderstand it then,” Laura replied casually.
Under her calm facade, deeply suppressed emotions brewed.
She could never forget when Cameron used his body to shield her under the rubble, creating a space
of safety.
When the rescue team pulled her and Cameron out from the debris, Cameron still maintained that position despite having fallen into a deep coma.
Six medical personnel struggled to lift him onto a stretcher.
Her heart almost shattered at that moment.
She blamed herself for being there, nearly costing Cameron his life.
She had underestimated Cameron’s determination to protect her.
She would preferred to have been the one enduring the pain of being pierced by steel rods, the one to
die.
She didn’t want to cause any more trouble for Cameron and didn’t want to see him hurt because of

her.
50, Laura chose to distance herself from Cameron.
“But Ms. Jones”
Peggy wanted to say something
“Peggy, stop.”
Laura Intervened.
Peggy’s words remained unspoken.
She looked at Laura.
Laura’s figure appeared desolate under the fading rays of the setting sun.
She knew that Laura was strong–willed and had decided to shoulder everything herself.
“Peggy, have you finished arranging the matter I assigned you?”
Laura’s cold tone interrupted Peggy’s thoughts.
Peggy’s eyes flickered, and she came back to her senses.
“I’ve arranged for Otis to handle the task, Ms. Jones. Are you sure you want to confront her now?”
Laura nodded faintly.
As she spoke, the icy look on her face deepened rapidly.
Laura had always indulged her in the past due to their unique relationship.
But she refuses to let it go this time.
Peggy was moved.
She could sense that Laura was livid.
“Ms. Jones, there’s one more thing.
Peggy took a deep breath and continued.
“What is it?”
“After Mr. Xander learned about your injury, he requested the military district to allow him to leave the battlefield early to see you.”
“Tell him I’m fine. I’ll be returning to Leving in four days.”
“But Ms. Jones, you know Mr. Xander’s personality well. Once he decides on something, it’s impossible to stop him.”
“In any case, use whatever means necessary.”

Laura’s tone was firm.
There were only four days left until the ceremony.
Before then, she couldn’t let Alan and Cameron cross paths.
