Dumped My Cheating Ex. Now I'm Sleeping Next to a Billionaire CEO novel Chapter 1462

The moment the door swung wide, the smile froze on Laney's face. Her eyes bulged as she stared at the mechanical body still spewing black smoke across the leather seats.

Just then, with a muffled thump, the SUV's trunk popped open from the inside. A fluffy head poked out. Nina clung to the edge of the bumper, grinning as she waved at Laney. "Hey Laney, it looks like this robot is kind of totaled." Laney was rendered completely speechless.

Using both her hands and feet, Nina scrambled nimbly out of the trunk. There had been no room left in the passenger cabin earlier, so she had simply tucked herself into the back. It was surprisingly spacious and perfect for hiding away to play on her phone. Patting the dust off her clothes, she peeked into the car. "Do you want me to help you carry it to your car, Laney?"

Laney's eyes instantly reddened. Trembling, she reached out and slowly stroked her beloved robot. The second her fingertips brushed the mangled edges of metal, her tears spilled over.

James stepped out of the driver's seat. Looking down at the grieving woman, his voice was low and steady. "I apologize. She is entirely wrecked. Calculate exactly how much you spent building this android, and I will transfer the full amount to you."

Laney's fingers flinched sharply. She sniffled and wiped her tears away. "There is no need. Even though I poured a fortune into her, I would much rather she take those fatal wounds. I could never bear to see my idol suffer even the slightest injury."

She turned her head, giving the perfectly safe Emmy a deep look. "Besides, I secretly customized this android using my idol's image, which was a blatant violation of her portrait rights. The fact that she is not angry with me today is more than enough."

Looking back at the unrecognizable android, a flicker of resolute tenderness crossed Laney's eyes. "She took all of this damage on behalf of my idol. Her mission is successfully complete."
