Chapter 339
"Is that Cam? Is Cam back?" Hearing the noises in the living room, Jane scurried out of her room anxiously. "Hey, Mrs. Jennings!" Cameron greeted, turning to her. "Cam!" Jane's eyes flickered emotionally. Cameron had made it back! Seeing that he had returned, she finally relaxed. The next thing Jane realized was that Cameron and Dakota were locked in an embrace, and she cleared her throat. "Ahem... It's great that you're fine. Looks like I came at a wrong timing." "Nothing of that sort, Mrs. Jennings." Awkwardly, Cameron scratched his head. Meanwhile, Dakota turned stiff. After she snapped back to her senses, she broke away from Cameron as though electrocuted. Embarrassment crept over her eyes as she glanced at her mother and Charles. She had forgotten that there were others around them. Charles cleared his throat as well and said awkwardly, "If there's nothing else, we'll be leaving now, Mr. Morgan." The last thing he wanted was to sta behind and play the gooseberry. Cameron smiled politely at him. "Thank you, Captain Jordan." "You're welcome, Mr. Morgan!" Terrified, Charles quickly turned to Dakota and Jane. "Ms. and Mrs. Jennings, goodbye." "Bye, Captain Jordan!" "Alright!" After giving them a courteous nod, Charles left with the Black Flag Army, leaving only Cameron, Dakota, and Jane in the living room. "Are you hurt, Cameron?" Dakota asked in concern. Ih reply, Cameron shook his head. "No." "Are you sure?" "Yeah." "Then... What about the Zimmers? Didn't they do anything to you?" "They're annihilated," Cameron answered. At the mention of this, iciness returned to his eyes. "Are they dead?" Taking in a sharp breath, Dakota gaped at him with shocked, wavering eyes. "Did you do it?" Cameron nodded. "Yes." "H-How did you do it?" Dakota was in utter shock because the Zimmers had found themselves a general from the military! "Blackheart gave me a hand," he replied. "Lord Blackheart?" Dakota sank into thought and quickly came to a conclusion. Given Lord Blackheart's financial power and authority, he could easily deal with the Zimmers. "This time, it's all thanks to Lord Blackheart!" she exclaimed, full of gratitude. "Yes. After he learned about what the Zimmers had done, he rushed over to help out without hesitation. It's all thanks to him this time," Cameron said feigning gratitude. After listening to their conversation, Jane asked in surprise, "Dakota, why did the Zimmers target us? Did you offend them?" "Well..." For a moment, Dakota was at a loss for words; she couldn't possibly tell that it was because of Cameron. "Mrs. Jennings, I was the one who offended them and dragged you guys in," Cameron admitted. Jane was stunned. "Did you offend them?" "Yes, Mrs. Jennings. I had some feud withethem, but I didn't expect” that they would be so despicable and target you guys. I'm sorryâvrs. JEnÕos. I was the one who implicated the Jennings." Content bélongs to O Guilt washed over Cameron's face. If only he had considered this, the Zimmers wouldn't have their opportunity to get back at him. "You're not to blame, Cam. It's all the fault of the Zimmers! They're a detestable bunch who kicked others around because they had power!" Jane hissed through gritted teeth. Knowing Cameron's personality, she was sure that he wouldn't start a fight without a reason. Therefore, it must be the Zimmers who started it first. Furthermore, the Zimmers had a bad reputation in the capital, especially Kevin, who was a prime example of a scum. "Thank you for being so understanding, Mrs. Jennings," Cameron thanked sincerely.

While Cameron was picking up the special balm on the table for her injuries, something suddenly came into Dakota's mind. Her eyes quivered for a second, and she said, "By the way, Ms. Jones' secretary called me earlier." "Laura's secretary?" Cameron's expression changed, and he asked in concern, "When did she call you?" NôvelDrama.Org © content.
