Chapter 789

Teresa, noticing Laney’s concern, interrupted with a reassuring smile, “Don’t worry. I won’t expect you to work now. You can return to the workplace after your maternity leave.”

Teresa smiled warmly. “You’re welcome. As long as you’re willing to help me, we can work things out. It’s not easy to find a female bodyguard as skilled as you, so I can’t just let you go.”
