Ex-husband Unmasked He’s a Billionaire?

Chapter 121

“The world’s wealthiest person and a leader in military and political circles?” Lena’s eyes widened in disbelief as she almost slammed on the brakes in shock. “Do you believe me?” Cameron asked with a mischievous grin.

“Do | believe you? If that’s the case, then | must be one of the top five martial artists in the world, capable of destroying you in minutes!”

Lena rolled her eyes at him again. She was evidently not buying his story. To her, it was just another one of Cameron’s tall tales. Cameron knew Lena would react this way, which explained his hesitancy from before.

“So, you must be a national-level secret agent. Is that why you can’t disclose your identity?” Lena suddenly asked with a serious expression.

Considering Cameron's skills and deliberate concealment of his identity, this was her most plausible explanation. “Secret agent?”

Cameron raised an eyebrow.

“Or not?”

Lena frowned slightly, her gaze becoming wary.

“Don't tell me you're actually a foreign spy?”

“A foreign spy?”

Cameron was taken aback, then chuckled.

“Well, okay, | am indeed a secret agent. I’m Agent 003, assigned by the Ministry of State Security.” Given Lena’s disbelief in anything he said, he opted to discard all of his statements.

“Hmph, just as | thought,” Lena said proudly, tilting her chin up.

She was convinced Cameron was indeed a secret agent.

Cameron found himself at a loss for words. Why did honesty lead to disbelief while a fabricated story gained credibility? And what sort of agent designation was “003” supposed to be, anyway?

“What's with that look?” Lena asked when she noticed Cameron's expression, which annoyed her slightly. She felt as though she was being mocked.

“Nothing, I’m just impressed by how you could guess my identity so precisely,” Cameron praised.

“Of course!”

Lena lifted her chin a bit higher.

Cameron was slightly amused at her response. He speculated that Lena might not be the smartest person despite her fiery demeanor.

“By the way, Colonel Bailey, do you know who hired the mercenaries that attacked Laura or which organization they might be from?”

Cameron suddenly remembered the recent attack and sought clues from Lena. At the mention of the attack, Lena’s gaze sharpened.

“Right now, I’m not entirely sure. | only know those guys are foreign mercenaries who sneaked into the country a week ago. I’ve been closely monitoring their movements. | didn’t expect their target to

be Laura.”

“Mercenaries who entered the country a week ago?” Cameron murmured in echo, then asked, Colonel Bailey, didn’t you capture one of their accomplices? Did you get any useful information out of him?”

“Don’t even mention it,” Lena said irritably. “That guy committed suicide by poisoning himself on the way back while under my subordinate’sContentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

custody.”

“Suicide by poisoning?”

Cameron's eyes narrowed.

“They came well-prepared, indeed.”

“Yes, but there’s still one accomplice who hasn't shown up,” Lena added. “Another accomplice?”

Cameron perked up.

“Yes,” Lena continued.

“They entered the country as a group of seven. Including the sniper on the mountain, there were only six at the scene, so one, presumably their leader, is missing.

“Remind Laura to be extra cautious when she’s out and about. Since their plan has failed, that person will refuse to let it go,” Lena advised. “| understand,” Cameron said as he narrowed his eyes.

The leader of the mercenaries would most likely have a lot of information. Perhaps he could even lead them to the person behind the scenes.

Cameron pondered on ways to lure the leader out. At that moment, Lena’s gaze shifted, and she noticed a suspicious vehicle following them through the rearview mirror.
