Chapter 181 The dagger plunged deep into Cameron’s chest, piercing his flesh and bone with a horrific sound. He grimaced slightly in pain as blood seeped from the wound. “No!” Laura’s eyes filled with tears instantly. She couldn’t believe Cameron would stab himself in the chest without hesitation just for her sake, especially considering their tumultuous past. “Why? Why would you do this?” Laura cried out. Her voice was filled with desperation, and her vision blurred with tears. The pain of being stabbed was unimaginable to her, but she knew it must be excruciating. “I’ve done as you asked. Can you let her go now?” Cameron’s voice was hoarse and low. He fixed his gaze on Jack and ignored Laura’s plea. “Do you think I’ll just let her go? How naive,” Jack sneered with amusement. He was now more convinced than ever of Cameron’s dedication. “Let her go, of you’ll regret it,” Cameron warned. The dagger was still lodged in his chest as blood continued to seep out. His front was stained crimson. Jack’s heart skipped a beat as he met Cameron’s unwavering stare. He felt an unnerving chill. He despised this feeling. Jack’s resolve hardened. To be safe, he drew a gun from his waist and aimed it directly at Cameron. He threatened coldly, “If you make any move, any at all, I’ll shoot her.” At this point, Laura was a mess of tears. She screamed at Cameron, her fear eclipsed by frustration. Go! Just leave me! Didn’t you hear me?” Yet, Cameron remained unmoved. “Go! I don’t need you to save me!

He could have dodged the bullet at such a distance, but he chose to endure it for Laura’s sake. “Cameron!” She cried out in desperation as her face turned pale with fear, “Get away from here! Haven’t I told you to stop worrying about me? Do you think I’ll be grateful? Do you believe this will save me?” Her voice trembled as she continued, “Let me tell you, Cameron, even if you die, I won’t thank you. Instead, I will despise you! Despise your foolishness and your self–righteousness!” 772 “Would you just shut up? Don’t you realize how annoying you are right now?” Cameron’s voice was raspy. His lips turned increasinghe pale from the blood los Jack laughed mockingly, “What a touching scene, yet it seems the lady doesn’t appreciate your efforts. It’s a waste to die for someone like her, don’t you think?” The worth of my actions is not for you to judge,” Cameron retorted. His gaze was still sharp despite the continuous bleeding. He warned, “Let her go, or I assure you, you will deeply regret it.” “Are you threatening me?” Jack snickered. His eyes were suddenly filled with malevolence. “Then show me, with your current condition, how you plan to make me regret it.” With that, Jack fired another shot.
