Goodbye My Arrogant Ex novel Chapter 18

“Quietly sort out all the company shares and other assets under my name, and move everything into this account.”

Laura’s expression sharpened, her back straightening as she nodded solemnly. “Understood, Ms. Taylor. I’ll make the arrangements right away.”

Marguerite gave her a small nod. She reached into her purse and handed Laura the car keys, her voice calm but leaving no room for argument. “Take the car. I already ordered a ride for you—once you’ve finished, go home and get some rest.”

Marguerite intended to return alone, to find a quiet place where she could collect her thoughts and settle her nerves.

Laura hesitated, glancing at Marguerite with worry, but finally turned and walked away, keys in hand.

Marguerite took a deep breath and stepped outside.

She’d barely gone a few steps when, out of nowhere, a powerful force yanked her violently aside.

Panic surged through her as she instinctively opened her mouth to scream, “Help—”

But before she could finish, a broad hand clamped tight over her mouth, stifling her cry in her throat.

“What are you yelling for? It’s me—Benjamin.”

A familiar voice, tinged with urgency, whispered sharply in her ear.

He recoiled in pain, his brow furrowing as he let out a sharp hiss and jerked his hand away.
