Chapter 2158 Edwin squared his shoulders, bracing for the impending confrontation.


    Dn donned a deceptive smile.


    “Mr. Evans, I''ve heard much about you.


    Laura may not recognize you, but I do. It’s really something for you to pretend someone else and maintain a rtionship with her for a year. But hey, fine, it''s a consensual rtionship and she was indeed happy. So I won''t hold it against you.” He paused, a note of sternness creeping into his voice.


    “I have one simple request though.


    Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g


    Now that you''ve parted ways with Laura, sever all tiespletely.


    I''ll take it from here. Your apartment remains untouched, save for her absence. I presume someone as charming as you won''t struggle to findpanionship elsewhere. Oh, I neglected to mention that I can be rather overly protective. If you have a change of heart and continue to bother her in the future, I won''t hesitate to confront you physically. At that point, I won''t care whether you''re the illustrious scion of the Evans family or not,” he cautioned.


    A steely resolve etched into Edwin''s voice as he replied, “Rest assured.” “That''s great.” Dn nodded curtly, fixing Edwin with an unwavering stare before departing.


    Ang''s Library The car door opened and mmed shut, the ck Land Rover vanishing into the distance, carrying Laura away.


    She just left.


    She left with another man.


    As a man himself, Edwin couldn''t help but sense Dn''s affection for Laura.


    Perhaps, he should be relieved that she was being taken care of.


    Deep in thought, Edwin ascended the stairs, reaching his apartment door.


    It remained impably neat like when he left hours ago. In fact, Laura wasn''t one to keep things in their ces, and it was always Edwin who would clean up after her.


    Her belongings had always been scattered about, tiny trinkets of unknown origin.


    Those things were still there.


    Laura only took away her clothes and a few important design drafts of the studio.


    The other items remained untouched, which meant she didn''t want them anymore.


    Edwin proceeded to the main bedroom, spotting a man''s ck shirt atop the bed. It was her favorite. asionally, she''d don this shirt while he worked in his study, snuggling into his embrace, demanding his attention.


    Yet, such moments were infrequent, as she busied herself with her own pursuits.


    She was undemanding, content with the smallest gestures of affection.
