"Husband?" Ling Xuan arched her brows, already displeased by the news.
She carried the sickle, heading towards the entrance of the warehouse.
Her brows creased the moment her eyes landed on Alexander.
"How did he find us?" Laurel muttered in her head.
Ling Xuan's fingers tightened around the sickle.
Alexander was frustrated by the guard who refused to let him in. However, the moment his eyes landed on her, his brows knitted in concern.
His wife… the young Madam of the Wayne family…was really doing farm work in this shabby place.
Alexander took a step forward. "Laurel."
Ling Xuan didn't reply. She simply stared at him for a few seconds, her eyes cold and unreadable, then she glanced at the guard standing beside the gate.
"You can leave," she said calmly.
Nate hesitated, then nodded. "Yes, ma'am."
When the guard walked away, the tension between them suddenly felt too tense.
