Chapter 71
“Did you hit your head or something, Willie Ziegler? I dare you to repeat what you said to me on Mr. Morgan’s phone!” Bobby yelled.
“Mr. Mr. Kane, was… was that really you on the phone earlier?” Willie was dumbfounded.
“Who else would it be? Do you have an issue with Mr. Morgan?” Bobby asked, furrowing his brows.
Willie swallowed hard, his legs turning weak. His silence confirmed Bobby’s suspicions.
“I see.”
“You’re taking a day off today, right? Come to the office tomorrow and process your resignation.”
Willie felt like he’d been struck by lightning. He paled.
“Mr. Mr. Kane, are… are you kidding me?” Willie stammered.
“Why would I joke around with you? Do you think I have nothing better to do? I’m warning you, you’d better treat Mr. Morgan well. Otherwise, I’ll make your life a living hell even after you leave Darth Holdings!” Bobby hung up.
The call disconnected, leaving Willie dumbfounded. His phone slipped from his hand, cracking loudly as it hit the ground. The screen shattered instantly. He ignored it.
Florence and Charlie were also dumbfounded, swallowing heavily.
“Darling…” Jane turned to Leonard, shocked.
Leonard was dazed, his hands trembling slightly. So Cameron was telling the truth all along!
“Hmph, I told you Cameron is amazing. Do you believe me now?” Dakota snorted at their shock, her frustration finally dissipating.
“I’m sorry, Dakota,” Leonard said, quickly apologizing to his daughter. He then gave Cameron an apologetic look. “Sorry, young man. We misjudged you. But we find this very hard to believe…”
“I understand, Mr. and Mrs. Jennings. If I were in your shoes, I probably wouldn’t believe me either. Moreover, you were just looking out for Dakota,” Cameron shrugged indifferently. He completely understood their feelings. Besides, apart from worrying about Dakota being deceived, Leonard and Jane had never said anything offensive to him. As parents, it was natural for them to worry about their children.

“Thank you for your understanding,” Leonard said seriously, taking a deep breath.
“You’re too formal, Mr. Jennings. You’re making me nervous,” Cameron said, scratching his head in embarrassment.
“Haha. Is that so?” Leonard laughed heartily, his gaze turning to one of admiration. Cameron was modest, humble, and approachable. What more could Leonard ask for in a son-in-law?
“Stop it, darling. You’re making things awkward. You really need to change that serious streak of yours!” Jane rolled her eyes at Leonard before smiling at Cameron.
“Haha. Okay! I’ll change!” Leonard laughed again, clearly in a good mood.
“Now that we’ve cleared the misunderstanding, let’s all sit down. It’s getting late. I’ll go and prepare dinner now. Let’s all have dinner together before you take your leave,” Jane suggested excitedly.
“Sure,” Florence said, jumping at the opportunity of a free meal.
“Thank you, Mrs. Jennings,” Cameron thanked politely.
“No need for the formalities, Cameron. Just treat this place as your own home,” Jane said warmly. She glanced at Willie, who seemed absent-minded. After some thought, she asked, “Willie, will you be having dinner with us?”
“Haha,” Willie’s mouth twitched. “That’s alright, Mrs. Jennings. I have some other things to attend to and will be taking my leave now.”
He practically ran out of the house. Why would he want to stay after embarrassing himself?
