Chapter 20
“Alright, Blackheart. I'll see you next time,” Cameron said in a low voice outside the VIP lounge on the cruise ship.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Take care, sir. If you need anything, please contact me anytime,” said Blackheart respectfully. “Okay, I'll take my leave.” With that, Cameron left the VIP lounge. Upon reaching the cruise ship's entrance, Cameron spotted Dakota at first sight. She had been waiting for him for a while.
“Ms. Jennings, sorry to keep you waiting.”
Cameron walked over with a smile.
He came for Dakota anyway.
“Mr. Morgan!”
Dakota narrowed her eyes as she watched Cameron approaching. She had many questions to ask him. It was not only about Cameron's identity but also about his divorce from Madison.
“Well, Mr. Morgan...” Dakota spoke hesitantly.
Even though she wanted to ask, she also thought it was presumptuous of her.
“Feel free to ask if you have any questions.” Cameron smiled faintly as he looked at the hesitant Dakota before him.
He knew she had many things to ask him.
Clenching her hands, Dakota finally asked, “Um... what happened between you and Maddy?”
“Are you talking about the five-year marriage between Madison and me?” said Cameron.
He knew she would ask this question.
“Yes.” Dakota nodded.
Although she and Cameron hadn't known each other for a long time, she had a good impression of him in both character and personality.
In particular, she could feel his open and aboveboard demeanor. How could a person like this be unfaithful to his marriage? And how could he pester his ex-wife after the divorce?
There had to be a deep misunderstanding in this.
Cameron looked at Dakota and stated clearly, “If | said that Madison I
had an extramarital affair and deliberately slandered me in front of outsiders to rid herself of guilt and keep her dignity, would you believe
me?”
“Huh?” Dakota was dumbfounded.
She hadn't expected to hear such a version from Cameron. This was completely different from Madison’s! “Is this... all true?” Dakota’s eyes flickered.
“Yes.” Cameron nodded.
“Phew!” Dakota took a deep breath.
For a while, it was hard for her to digest.
On one side was her best friend, while on the other was Cameron. He had helped her before, and she trusted him very much.
Seeing Dakota in a dilemma, Cameron smiled and said, “Actually, since things have come to this, it no longer matters who is telling the truth.
“Besides, it’s only natural for everyone to stand on their own side and defend themselves. | just hope that you won’t think of me as a bad
person.”
“Mr. Morgan, thank you for telling me this.” Dakota looked at Cameron.
At this moment, she already had an answer in her heart. She believed what Cameron said more.
It was not only because of her intuition from getting along with Cameron but also because of what happened at the wedding earlier. At the wedding, Madison had aggressively pressed others. On the contrary, Cameron had not.
It was just that Dakota couldn’t understand why Madison did this. “She thought, perhaps Madison just wanted a better life. “Let's go, Ms. Jennings. It’s windy here at the entrance of the cruise ship. You may catch a cold if you stay any longer.”
Agentle voice sounded at this time, snapping Dakota out of her thoughts
“Okay.” Dakota smiled.
Then, the two of them strolled toward the open-air parking.
“Mr. Morgan, can | ask you one more question?”
“Go ahead.”
“Well... your relationship with Lord Blackheart isn’t as simple as you
said earlier, right?”
