Meanwhile, in Leving.
A middle–aged woman was in the vice chairman’s office, in a building with a height of 100 meters.
She was leaning on a couch, facing the floor–to–ceiling windows, and answering an encrypted phone
call.
“What? The assassination failed?”
“Yes, I can’t contact Jeff. Madam, what should we do next?”
“Continue to send more people.”
Her tone was firm.
“But the failure of this assassination may have alerted Ms. Jones. If it continues, you may expose your
identity…”
“That’s why we should speed it up! It’s a rare opportunity to kill Laura! We must not miss it!” the middle–aged woman scolded fiercely.
The security force around Laura was at its weakest now.
Once Laura returned to Leving, it would be difficult to have another chance to kill her.
She must not miss this opportunity. She must stop Laura from marrying Alan!
The other party responded, “Got it. I’ll send more people.”
The middle–aged woman emphasized, “Remember, there must be no mistakes next time! No matter how much you’re paid, you must hire the best killer to kill Laura!”
“Yes, madam!”
At noon the next day, at Mellow Cloud Restaurant in Yrando.
Cameron and Dakota met at the restaurant’s entrance at the agreed time.
It was Yrando’s most renowned sky restaurant, located on the 100th floor of the Global International Building.
The guests could overlook the entire Yrando, so this place was the perfect choice for celebrities. To dine here, the minimum spending started at thirty thousand.
“Cameron, over here!”
Dakota waved at Cameron. Leonard and Jane were standing next to Dakota, both well–dressed.
Today was Cameron’s first time treating them to a meal. More importantly, they would dine in the

famous Mellow Cloud Restaurant. Naturally, they had to dress more formally.
“Dakota!”

Cameron also waved at Dakota. Walking over with a smile, he greeted politely, “Hello, Mr. Jennings, Mrs. Jennings.”
“Hello, Cam!”
Leonard and Jane looked enthusiastic.
He continued, “I’ve already reserved a table. Let’s go in.”
“Cam, you must have broken the bank today.”
Jane felt a little embarrassed–she originally planned to host Cameron at home.
“Please don’t say that. We’ll be a family soon.”
“Haha, that’s right! Okay then. We won’t be outsiders.”
She smiled gently, looking at him with admiration.
Dakota blushed slightly.
Jane glanced at her shy daughter and then at Cameron, feeling very satisfied with her future son–in-
law.
The four of them walked toward the restaurant.
“Welcome to the Mellow Cloud Restaurant!”
The waiter at the door immediately became energetic when he saw Cameron.
He was a special guest. The boss even sent his photo to every employee, saying that the service must be perfect without neglect.
If Cameron was satisfied, the boss would reward them with a bonus- an extra salary of one month!
“Here is Table No. 1 in the VIP area. Please take a seat.
The waiter enthusiastically said, “Here are the menus. Please take a look. If you need anything, just ring the bell and call for service.”
“Okay, thank you. Go ahead with your work. We’ll read the menu first.‘
Cameron smiled at the waiter.
“Yes, sir!”
The waiter then left.
“You can order whatever you like,” Cameron chuckled.
“Haha, okay, let me take a look first.”

Leonard laughed, opened the menu, and perused it with Jane.
As there were two menus, there was one left after Leonard and Jane took the other away.
“Dakota, let’s take a look too.”
To avoid exposing their identity as a fake couple, Cameron took the initiative to pick up the menu and sat closer to Dakota.
The distance between them instantly closed.
As their distance got closer, she could feel his breath and body temperature, which accelerated her heartbeat.
