The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 714

Once Garrett had departed, Leo and Vera decided to follow suit, but not before ensuring Laney was in good hands.

“Please, take exceptional care of Laney this time. We can’t afford another incident,” Vera implored, her worry evident. “Keep us informed of any developments, alright?” Lola nodded.

Lola hung her head, biting her l*p and holding her t***ue.
