Chapter 84
"Dear, did you hear that? Ms. Jones said she noticed me! Now, we're going to make a lot of money!" exclaimed Madison, clenching her fists as her face flushed with excitement.
"I heard it too!" Archie replied, equally incredulous. He never expected Ms. Jones to pay attention to Madison.
It seemed Ms. Jones was definitely going to develop a major project in Yrando. Otherwise, why would she familiarize herself with the major corporations there beforehand? Madison was named one of the top ten outstanding entrepreneurs in Yrando this year—the youngest, in fact—making Ms. Jones's notice unsurprising.
One could only imagine the scale of the project Ms. Jones was personally involved in! Archie knew he had to seize this opportunity.
He took a deep breath and looked excitedly at Madison. "This time, Ms. Jones really thinks highly of you. We must seize this opportunity and not let her down!"
This was their chance to elevate the Price family!
Madison nodded, then looked guiltily at Archie. "Dear, I'm sorry. I misspoke earlier and upset Ms. Jones's secretary. I was too impatient and just wanted to help you."
"Silly, why are you apologizing? Weren't you doing that because you wanted to help me?" Archie's tone was gentle.
Madison was proving useful to him.
"Dear, as long as you're not angry…" Madison didn't know Archie had been using her from the start. His tolerance made her feel pampered and happy.
"Dear, shall we go back now?" Madison asked.
"Sure, but before we go, I must show someone what I'm capable of," Archie said, squinting.
"Who?" Madison asked, surprised.
"What do you think, Dear?"
"Cameron?"
"That's right." A hint of smugness appeared on Archie's face. "I remembered everything that guy said to you earlier. I won't allow anyone to insult my girlfriend."
He claimed the vengeance was for Madison, but it was for himself. He'd long wanted to fight Cameron but hadn't had the chance. Now, with Madison's success, he had nothing to fear.
"Dear, you're so good to me!" Madison was touched by Archie's gesture.
"It's what I should do as a boyfriend," Archie replied.
Suddenly, he clenched his teeth. "If it weren't for that bastard ruining our wedding, you would be my wife now!"
"After we successfully secure the project from Ms. Jones, I will definitely hold a grand wedding for you in the capital. No, I'll hold it at the most luxurious hotel in Leving!"
"When the time comes, I'll see what that bastard can do to ruin it!"
"Dear, your sincerity is more than enough," Madison said, touched by his affectionate speech. "Whether we have the wedding sooner or later doesn't matter. After all, I am already yours."
"Madison, thank you for your understanding and support," Archie said, feigning emotion.
"It's what I should do as your future wife," Madison replied submissively, leaning against him.
Archie nodded, his expression turning cold. "Wait a moment. I'll call Sergeant Tommy at the police station and tell him about my plan. I will definitely help you give Cameron what he deserves for what he did to you earlier!"
"Okay!"
Meanwhile, Cameron walked out of the airport, followed by Dakota.
"Cameron, wait for me!"
"Dakota, why are you leaving too?" Cameron stopped.
"I'm just worried about you," Dakota panted. "Are you okay?"
"Just a little dizzy. I'll be fine after some rest," Cameron said hastily.
"Dizzy? Should we go to the hospital?" Dakota worried.
"No need. I probably didn't sleep well. But I'm sorry for making you worry and leave with me. You didn't even get to see Ms. Jones much," Cameron sighed.
"It's okay; your health is more important. Besides, I've already seen Ms. Jones. That was enough for me. Thank you, Cameron," Dakota said.
"Thank me for what? I messed it up halfway through," Cameron shook his head.
"You didn't mess it up. Everyone has off days. Now, let me take you back so you can rest," Dakota said gently.
"Okay."
They walked toward the airport parking lot. However, as they neared, five thugs wielding iron rods approached them. They appeared to have been waiting.
