Chapter 103
“A silver needle?”
Lena was surprised by Cameron’s seemingly genuine expression.
Could he be telling the truth?
Regardless, due to her pride, Lena would not admit it.
She asked coldly, “Hmph, what silver needle? Who do you think you’re fooling?”
Cameron shook his head and remained silent.
Lena furrowed her brows.
Why was this guy so annoying? It was as if it would kill him to say one more word.
As the tension lingered, several black Rolls–Royce Ghosts approached from a distance.
Each of them was worth tens of millions.
What was particularly eye–catching was their license plates that bore the words VA!
The convoy stopped in front of Lena and her group.
The car doors opened, and well–trained men in black suits quickly surrounded the black Lincoln.
Leading the group was an older man who sported white hair.
Despite being in his 70s, he didn’t appear too old. Although his hair was white, his gaze was deep, and his steps were steady.
A force emanated from him, indicating that he was an expert!
Lena could tell he was a formidable opponent.
Moreover, his strength surpassed hers!
“Otis!” Cameron’s eyes flickered slightly.
“Little guy, long time no see.” Otis looked at Cameron with a faint smile.
“Otis, it’s been a while.” Cameron smiled back.
He was the only elder who was polite to him back in the Jones family. He was also Laura’s trusted
butler.
At the same time, he was also an expert.
“Otis, you’re here!” Laura immediately got out of the car.
“Ms. Jones, I apologize for alarming you. Please punish me.” Otis lowered his head.

“Otis, don’t say that. It’s my fault for coming out without informing you.”
Laura quickly helped Otis up,
reyes no longer cold but with a hint of gentleness.

Otis had watched her grow up since childhood and was one of the people she trusted the most.
“Ms. Jones, it’s not safe to stay here for long. Let me escort you back,” Otis suggested.
“Okay.” Laura nodded.
Otis then looked at Cameron. “Little guy, come with us.”
“No thanks, Otis. I’ll go back on my own.” Cameron smiled.
“Alright, then take care on the way,” Otis said.
Otis smiled and didn’t insist. He knew about Cameron and Laura’s history.
“Wait a minute. This guy has to come back with me to the military region for questioning. He can’t leave yet!” Lena spoke up.
“His statement will be taken by me, and anything that happens during this time will be my responsibility. I suppose you don’t have any objections, Colonel Bailey?” Otis replied with a gentle
smile.
Lena wanted to refuse. However, considering the other party’s strength and the Jones family’s backing, she could only agree reluctantly.
“Alright. Since you’re vouching for him, I’ll relent.”
“Thank you, Colonel Bailey.” Otis expressed his gratitude and then looked kindly at Cameron. “Little guy, take care on your way.
“Otis, I’ll take my leave, then.”
Cameron smiled as he left the scene.
Laura watched his figure departing, a fleeting hint of reluctance shimmering in her eyes.
Otis sighed as he observed.
Sure enough, Laura couldn’t forget about him. It was a pity that Laura held the entire family’s hopes. They couldn’t be together even if they loved each other–unless Cameron could regain the recognition of the Morgan family and become the young sir.
Even then, it was only a possibility.
He needed to surpass his previous status or possess absolute strength to be with Laura. However, judging from how things were, he had yet to possess either of these qualities.
Otis believed that Laura must have realized this, which was why she never revealed the truth of what happened back then to him…
