Chapter 38 Caspian’s mouth twitched. This was the first time in his life hearing someone addressing Timothy that way. Moreover, he actually wanted Timothy to give him an explanation? “Kid, who do you think you are? You want my boss to give you an explanation?” Caspian’s face grew even darker as he stared at Cameron. Did this guy really think he was special just because he had some brute strength? “Dakota, is that your boyfriend?” Madison’s other friends began to express their opinions about Cameron. “Is there something wrong with your boyfriend’s brain? Asking Mr. Dashner for an explanation? Is he trying to get us all killed?” “Yeah! If he wants to die, he should just say it straight and not involve us!” “He’s so disgusting. He’s just acting all tough and injuring people even though he’s powerless!” “Dakota, hurry up and make your boyfriend apologize to Lord Caspian. Do whatever it takes to resolve this, even if you have to sleep with him. Just don’t drag us into it!” “Stephanie, Stella, you…” Dakota was left speechless and infuriated by her friends‘ comments. How could they be so selfish? Cameron was clearly helping them, but somehow, it had become his fault. “I’m dragging you into this?” Cameron raised an eyebrow, finding it somewhat amusing. Didn’t they realize that even if he hadn’t said anything earlier, Caspian had no intention of letting them go? Moreover, wasn’t this whole scheme orchestrated by Madison? “Isn’t this your fault?” That sentence led to even more discontent among the girls. “Yeah, aren’t you the one causing harm?” “You’re just a lowly migrant worker, pretending to be something you’re not!” “Dakota, seriously, when did your taste become so poor?” Cameron wasn’t wearing any branded clothes, so in their eyes, he was no different from a migrant worker. “Stephanie, Stella, that’s enough!” Dakota was fed up with her friends, and she defended Cameron. “What’s with your attitude, Dakota? If it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t be in this situation!” Her friends blamed Dakota, seeing her as the one responsible for this mess. Chapter 38 2/3 “You…” Dakota started to speak, but Cameron interrupted her. “Dakota, don’t bother with them. Some people just don’t know their place,” Cameron calmly said. “Hey, what do you mean by that?” “Who are you calling ignorant?” “You brat, explain yourself!” The girls protested against Cameron. Cameron ignored their complaints and went to sit down on a couch. He closed his eyes and waited for Timothy to arrive. Seeing that the conflict was shifting, Madison had a smug smile on her face. Meanwhile, at a luxurious golf course in the capital, Timothy was wearing a suit and sunglasses as he swung a golf club, sending the ball flying in a perfect arc. “Boss, you have a phone call!” one of his subordinates said as he brought him the phone. “Who is it?” Timothy stopped his swinging motion and puffed his cigar as he asked. “It’s your subordinate, Lord Caspian.” “Caspian?” Timothy frowned. “What does he want?” “Boss, what happened was…” “No way! Someone dared to lay a hand on my men?” Timothy was furious, slamming his hand heavily on the table. “Who did this?” “It’s someone named Cameron.” “Cameron?” Timothy’s heart trembled as terrifying memories flashed through his mind. Ten years ago, Timothy was originally the leader of a mercenary group in the Midlands, sweeping through the entire Midlands battlefield with his skills and the mercenary organization he founded. However, just when he thought he was invincible and about to become the general, he offended a terrifying Dark Lord, someone he couldn’t afford to provoke. Alongside the Dark Lord was a cloaked henchman. Back then, he thought that the two of them were just lost businessmen and tried to extort money from them. Little did he know that this action would lead to the complete destruction of his entire mercenary organization. Chapter 35 3/3 Back then, with just a phone call, the Dark Lord summoned a multitude of fighter jets roaring in from every direction. Alongside them, numerous special forces descended from the sky, blanketing the city like a looming dark cloud. At that moment, he witnessed what a true siege was like. His invincible mercenary team was wiped out in an instant. If it weren’t for the fact that the Dark Lord had spared him because they were both from the same country, he would have died in the midst of the artillery fire. Afterward, he chose to return to his home country and founded the Dark Path Gang, which gradually grew into the notorious Black Dragon Group known today. In the capital, he was the kingpin. However, the specter of the Dark Lord, like an unshakable nightmare, had always haunted his thoughts, instilling fear every time he recalled it. The Dark Lord, Cameron, had the same name as the person mentioned on the phone. However, Timothy thought it was a coincidence. After all, how could the Dark Lord be in such a small place like Yrando? Suppressing his fear, Timothy waved his hand and regained his imposing manner. “Take me there to meet him!”
