Sign the Papers Mr. Langford novel Chapter 70

She dragged the news screenshots, the banquet photos, the public announcement of Willow's consultant appointment, and the video clips of Willow being called Mrs. Langford into the folder, one by one.

Her hands didn't shake once as she did it.

Every single knife that had cut her in the past was now being converted into evidence.

It was perfect.

At eight o'clock that night, Lawrence returned to his office.

Xavier reported in a low voice, "Mr. Langford, the organizers just sent over the finalized schedule for the Youth Medical Innovation Seminar this Friday."

Lawrence flipped open the itinerary.

Wren's name was listed in the third slot.

The topic of her presentation:

[Closed-Loop At-Home Data and the Long-Term Compatibility of Cardiac Assist Devices]

Lawrence stared at that line of text for a very long time.

He was suddenly reminded of that roadshow seven years ago.

Wren had stood just like this in front of a massive crowd, talking about her models, talking about her ideals.

Then she married him.

And all of that brilliant light slowly dimmed.

Now, it seemed she was about to step back into the spotlight.

And this time, she wouldn't be looking at him.

Lawrence snapped the schedule shut, his voice cold and heavy.

"I'll be attending on Friday."

Xavier nodded.

"Willow will also be there."

Lawrence gave a brief "hmm."

Then, as if asking casually, he added, "Does Wren know?"

"The guest list is public, so she should be aware."

Lawrence didn't say anything else.

He remained convinced that Wren was just throwing a tantrum.

But for some reason, when he saw her name on that guest list, he was hit with a deeply unsettling premonition for the very first time.

She hadn't become a pathetic mess after leaving the Langford Estate.

On the contrary, it felt as though she was inching her way back to the place she was always meant to be.

And that infuriated him far more than her crying and begging ever could.

He picked up his phone, fully intending to call her.
