A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

Chapter 2211-2220

Chapter 2211 She had already taken off the necklace and planned to return it to Alexis later.

Laura wasn't particularly close to Alexis.

As Laura pondered, Dylan broke the silence.

“Edwin is shameless, and his sister, even more so. With the way she flaunts her wealth, she could easily charm young girls." He paused, adding, “She's tall, almost 5.6 feet, the kind many young girls nowadays find attractive-beautiful and cool. It'd be hard for anyone not to be attracted.” Laura responded quietly, “My mom once told me about Miss Fowler. She was in love with a childhood friend, but he and Edwin went abroad for study and he never really came back. Their relationship just—ended.” This memory, still vivid from a few years back, seemed more relevant now with Edwin in her life.

The thought of him made Laura lose her desire to continue the conversation.

Dylan sensed her mood shift and chose not to delve further.

After dropping Laura off at her apartment, he called out to her as she was about to head up the stairs.

“Laural” She turned to face him.

Dylan sat in his car, the night wind playing with his hair, giving him an effortlessly attractive look.

He asked softly, “Next year, I might go back to North America. Would you like to come with me?” North America? Laura knew about Dylan's successful family business there. His invitation sounded almost like a confession, given he was just her agent.

She was aware that being with Dylan would mean being well cared for, but she hadn't developed any romantic feelings for him.

Going with him just because he was good to her wouldn't be fair to either of them.

Laura remained silent.

Dylan, understanding, gave her a gentle smile and waved.

“Maybe you'll change your mind in a few days!” Laura hummed a noncommittal response, somewhat naively, watching him drive away before stepping into the elevator to go home.

Upon exiting the elevator, Laura was met with a surprising sight. A tall figure, dressed formally, leaned against her doorstep. His long legs seemed almost too large for the space.

It was Edwin.

Chapter 2212 Laura hesitated inside the elevator, watching as the doors opened and closed repeatedly.

Finally, Edwin stepped forward, gently pulling her out. She wore a black coat over her dress, cinched at the waist, her slender figure apparent.

“Keys,” Edwin requested.

Laura took a step back, firm yet composed.

“We can talk here.” She leaned against the wall, her voice soft but steady.

“Yes, Uncle Mark spoke to me. I promised him I'd stay away from you, Edwin.

Please, don’t come here again.” Edwin's expression grew more intense as he noticed the absence of the necklace around her neck.

His voice was husky with emotion.

“Let's talk inside. It's cold here.” ANGELA'sLIBRARY But Laura remained unmoved.

Edwin stepped closer, effectively pinning her against the wall as he reached into her pocket for the keys.

“Edwin!” she protested, biting her lip.

Silently, Edwin opened the door, gesturing for her to enter.

“Let's talk inside.” Reluctantly, Laura stepped into her apartment.

Edwin followed, observing as she turned on the heater and then quietly headed to the kitchen to make coffee.

The scene reminded him of their past life together.

She was such a coffee enthusiast and the aroma of coffee always present in their shared home.

Edwin joined her in the kitchen, standing close behind. He murmured, “Do you still remember much about the past?” “There's no need to remember anything anymore,” Laura replied, handing him a cup of coffee. Her gaze met his.

“It's over, Edwin.

You have a girlfriend, and I have a boyfriend. There's no reason for us to keep in touch. Please drink your coffee and leave.”

Chapter 2213 Edwin set the coffee aside, his gaze fixed on her.

Close to her, he noticed her discomfort as she turned her head away.

“Can Dylan really be called your boyfriend? If he is, why doesn't he live with you, and why does he leave right after dropping you off? Laura, you're lying.” Laura responded with a faint smile, moving back to the living room.

Edwin, following her, grabbed her shoulders, offering, “Let me take care of you." Laura gently shrugged off his hands and confronted him.

“What kind of care are we talking about here? Buying me a house, a car, and giving me endless money? Edwin, isn't that just keeping me as your mistress? What if you come to me for comfort one day after having an argument with your wife, and I refuse? Will you then hold your financial support over me? Why should I have to pretend to be virtuous?” She felt saddened by the thought.

Once, they had been a genuine couple, albeit with some deception.

Now, he was with someone else yet still sought her out.

Lowering her voice, she pleaded, “Edwin, can you please let me go?” After saying this, she walked to the window, looking out at the snow-laden night.

Edwin watched her, feeling the distance between them.
