Chapter 327
The air in the study seemed to freeze in an instant, even Agnes looked flabbergasted. Laura lifted her head, one
hand covering her cheek, looking incredulously at Preston.
All these years, Preston had treated her like a precious gem.
No matter what she did, even if she brought Starlight International Group to the brink of bankruptcy, Preston never
blamed her.
But there was one taboo between them all these years that woman, Agnes’s biological mother, Julia.
Preston was also stunned.
He was always gentle, and even in middle age, he was quite a gentleman.
His actions just now were out of control due to his emotions.

But Laura violently shook off Preston’s hand, “Always for that woman, Preston, do you have a conscience? She’s
been dead for ten years. Ten years, and you still can’t forget her. Whenever she’s mentioned, you become a
different person. She’s your ex-wife, then what am I? I’ve been with you quietly for ten years, and took care of you
and your daughter for ten years. Is my devotion less important than a dead person? Preston, I’m not going to let
this go!”
With that, Laura tumed around and left.
Preston wanted to chase after her, but after two steps, he came back.
He sat on the couch smoking, while Agnes was stunned.
After a long time, Agnes asked with a trembling voice, “That’s not true, right?”

but no matter what, it’s in the past. She’s your mother, and you were her favorite”

Agnes’s eyes were red, she didn’t even look at Beatrice, and ran off
Beatrice was puzzled.
What made Agnes so upset that she ran out crying?
She’s always been proud and rarely cries.
Beatrice, who took pleasure in others’ misfortunes, was all the more curious as to what happened to Agnes,
