“Yes,” Cameron replied, glancing nervously at Dakota.
Dakota felt a sudden tightness in her chest.
She looked at Cameron and asked, “Because of... what happened?”
“Because of an accident yesterday.
Cameron took a deep breath.
“An accident yesterday?”
Dakota's eyes narrowed.
“You went to see Ms. Jones yesterday?”
“Yeah.”
Cameron nodded.
“There was an unexpected incident, so | got injured.”
“Dakota, what if | mean, what if | told you that | knew Ms. Jones from before? Would you think | lied to you and
then dislike me?”

Cameron felt a tingling sensation on his scalp. Still, he decided to be honest with Dakota.
Dakota's heart trembled.
It turned out that Cameron had known Laura for a long time.
This explained why Laura had shown her such special attention and signed such a big contract.
Initially, Dakota had doubts when Laura stated that she valued her abilities.
Dakota understood her abilities weren't enough to catch Laura's attention, and she had also suspected
Cameron's relationship with her.
When Cameron claimed he didn’t know Laura, she had believed him unconditionally.
Still, something felt off.
Her lingering doubts were now finally confirmed with Cameron's revelation.
She wondered why Cameron would lie about such a thing when it was a good thing.
“Cameron, why did you hide fromthat you knew Ms. Jones? This is a good thing, isn’t it?”
Dakota was puzzled.
“It’s because of a past that I'd rather not revisit,” Cameron explained.
“A past that you'd rather not revisit?”
Dakota was stunned, and then It dawned on her.
“I see,” she murmured, pursing her lips.
“Are you... angry?”
“I'm not angry.”
Dakota shook her head.
“Really?”
Cameron looked unsure.
“Really.”
Dakota nodded with a gentle smile.
“Thank you, Cameron, for tellingthis.”
“Um... Why do | feel like you're acting strange?”
Cameron's scalp tingled slightly.
Unexpectedly, Dakota didn’t ask him what that unpleasant past was. He thought that it was common sense to
gather that a girl was upset if she didn’t ask any further.
“Am | that petty in your eyes? | understand you.”
Dakota wrinkled her delicate nose.
“Everyone has their own past and secrets, right? What matters is the present. You're acquainted with Ms. Jones

If she were to blanyone, it would be herself for not being good enough to keep up with Cameron’s pace, and
for depending on Cameron's connections to secure Laura’s cooperation.
Cameron felt his heart stir.
He looked at Dakota, who was particularly understanding at the moment. A deep sense of warmth emerged in
his eyes.
“Thank you, Dakota.”
“What are you thankingfor? | should be thanking you for your honesty,” Dakota said.
Cameron could have easily avoided explaining these things to her, but he still chose to do so. It showed that
Cameron truly cared about her feelings, which made her happy.
“Silly girl.”
Cameron smiled warmly.

“I'm not silly, you are.”
Dakota pouted.
He could have explained the situation to her before. She contemplated the reason for him coming
clean now.
She pondered if he was planning to leave Yrando and move to Leving
Dakota suddenly felt uneasy.
