Chapter 117

“Could I have actually gotten it right?” Dakota looked at Cameron’s tense expression and gasped in surprise. She had just made a random guess.

“Heh, how could that be possible!” Cameron chuckled awkwardly. “I wish I could…”

“Hmph, no wishing such stuff!” Dakota huffed.

“Huh?” Cameron was taken aback.

Dakota blushed slightly, realizing her reaction was too strong. She quickly changed the subject. “Cameron, be honest with me. Do you know Ms. Jones?”

Cameron was once again taken aback. At that moment, the elevator arrived on the first floor.

“Um, let’s go out first,” Cameron said, looking at the open elevator doors.

“Yeah.” Dakota nodded.

The two headed toward the hotel entrance. “Cameron, do you know Ms. Jones?” Dakota continued.

“Why are you suddenly asking me this?” Cameron wanted to gauge Dakota’s intentions.

“Otherwise, Ms. Jones wouldn’t have come to me today to discuss the project collaboration, right?” Dakota said.

“Why not? Obviously, it’s because you’re outstanding and caught her attention,” Cameron replied.

“Cameron, don’t try to comfort me. I know myself well enough. And despite how you treated Ms. Jones just now, she didn’t get angry at all. Your relationship is obviously not ordinary. At the very least, you must know each other. Cameron, you don’t have to hide it from me,” Dakota said.

She wasn’t foolish; she could connect the dots. However, she was curious about the nature of Cameron and Laura’s relationship.

Cameron didn’t know how to respond for a moment. It was his fault; he had let his emotions get the best of him earlier, and Dakota had noticed. He couldn’t just tell her that he and Laura had been in a romantic relationship, could he? He feared Dakota would grow distant from him once she knew the truth.

As Cameron thought about what excuse to give Dakota, they arrived at the hotel entrance. Archie and Madison were still there. Cameron furrowed his brows. “Why are you two still hanging around here?”

Cameron furrowed his brows. “What’s going on?” he asked, clearly not understanding Lena’s intentions.

“The incident at the scene just now,” Lena got straight to the point.

“The incident at the scene? Didn’t Otis already handle that for me?” Cameron asked.

“Yes, Otis indeed arranged for someone to take your statement at the scene,” Lena said before changing the subject. “However, I’m not here to talk about the statement. I’m here to confirm what happened on the mountaintop and the issue with your file!”
