Relentless Pursuit After Divorce

Chapter 2230: Chapter 143: The Youngsters’ Love Is So Sweet

Mr. Turnbaugh turned his head to Laura Jones and said:

"Let’s take a break for now. You can come find me after you finish talking."

Laura Jones had no idea what William Wilson wanted to say to her, nor did she ask. She simply agreed, "Alright, Mr. Turnbaugh."

Laura Jones followed William Wilson to a vacant area behind the filming site.

There were fewer people coming and going here, and the environment was not noisy.

Whenever Laura Jones saw William Wilson, she naturally thought of her "secret childhood engagement," and her mood became a bit complicated.

Looking at William Wilson, she wanted to voice the questions in her heart several times but hesitated, afraid of scaring him.

Or perhaps, she was more afraid deep down of seeing William Wilson’s angry and dissatisfied expression upon learning of such a "childhood engagement."

William Wilson noticed her demeanor and raised his brows.

"Are you getting used to staying here?"

Just as Laura Jones was considering how to start the conversation with William Wilson, he spoke first.

"It’s pretty good. I’ve learned a lot from Mr. Turnbaugh."

She scratched her head, her eyes somewhat guilty, avoiding eye contact with William Wilson.

For a moment, a brief silence fell between the two.

William Wilson observed that she seemed to be avoiding his gaze, her guilty look akin to someone who had done something wrong.

Recalling her previous hesitant expression, William Wilson raised his eyebrows and asked:

"Do you have something to tell me?"

Laura Jones instinctively wanted to shake her head, but seeing William Wilson’s eyes, the denial words got stuck.

She felt that keeping this matter from William Wilson seemed a bit unfair.

Pressing her lips in hesitation, she nodded slightly, "I have a secret to tell you."

Her serious expression piqued William Wilson’s curiosity.

"Oh? What’s the secret? Let me hear it."

Laura Jones glanced around mysteriously, then moved a bit closer to William Wilson.

William Wilson cooperatively leaned forward, bringing his ear closer to her mouth.

"When I went back this time, Mommy told me that the two of us have a childhood engagement."

Upon hearing this, William Wilson was initially taken aback, but soon, a hint of amusement appeared in his eyes.

The future mother-in-law really worried herself out for him.

The warmth from the girl’s breath, accompanied by her unique fragrance, still lingered in the air.

His smiling gaze fell on Laura Jones’s slightly uneasy face, suppressing the laughter in his eyes, he said:

"Is that so?"

Actually, he was well aware of the situation.

The one who was betrothed to him was not her, but Oliver Jones.

But there was no need for the little girl to know about this.

Laura Jones nodded solemnly, speaking quietly, "It’s true. Mommy told me. I even went online to check about the past; it can’t be fake..."

As she said this, her gaze looked somewhat uneasy at William Wilson, seemingly fearing he might suddenly become angry.

William Wilson was also watching her; his unease hidden much better than the obvious anxiety on Laura Jones’s face.

"So, what’s your thought on this?"

William Wilson asked in a seemingly calm manner.

Laura Jones discreetly observed William Wilson’s expression, seeing that he showed not a single trace of anger, she was finally at ease.

As for her thoughts?

What were her thoughts?

"It’s like a pie falling from the sky, but I’m afraid to catch it for fear of being knocked out."
