Chapter 213
The entire hall fell silent.
Everyone could discern the hint of mockery in Laura’s tone just now. It seemed like she was
deliberately tricking Archie.
Moreover, why did the name Cameron sound so familiar?
Right!
Wasn’t that the same person who crashed Archie and Madison’s wedding on the Venizon Cruise and got framed by Madison?
Back then, this incident had alarmed Lord Blackheart!
Lord Blackheart was furious and abandoned Madison and her family on the cruise ship!
Unexpectedly, this guy was chosen by Laura again!
People wondered where he came from. They began to whisper.
“This guy’s luck is just too good…”
“Yeah, he happened to cure Lord Blackheart’s illness and earned a favor from him. Now, he’s in Ms. Jones‘ good graces!”
“I wonder what Ms. Jones sees in him to choose him as the representative of Yrando.”
“Who knows…”
“Shh, keep your voice down. Don’t let Ms. Jones hear us…
All eyes turned to Cameron.
Those discussions reached his ears.
However, he didn’t care in the slightest.
However, just because he didn’t care, it didn’t mean Laura didn’t care too.
She couldn’t tolerate anyone saying anything negative about Cameron.
She stood confidently before the microphone. Her voice was clear and unwavering as she addressed
the audience.
“Perhaps some of you here are familiar with Cameron, while others may not be.
“Perhaps some of you disagree with my choice, believing Cameron to be a nobody unworthy of this opportunity.
“But let me make it clear. Cameron is my
one. In my eyes, he is exceptional.
“From now on, anyone who harbors discontent toward Cameron is also harboring discontent toward me, Laura Jones.”
Her voice was soft, but it carried an undeniable authority, resonating in the hearts of everyone present.
A shiver ran down the spine of every individual there.
Laura was making a statement, asserting her authority clearly!
Pia’s heart churned with turmoil. How could her former son–in–law, this useless man, transform into someone so highly regarded by Laura?
And… didn’t Archie just say that Laura was hosting this grand event for them?
“Archie, what’s going on? Did Ms. Jones make a mistake?” Pia turned to Archie, her expression filled with anxiety.
“How would I know…” Archie’s face turned red.
He clenched his fists, and his gaze shifted nervously.
He had truly embarrassed himself today!
“Why is this happening…” Madison covered her mouth. She couldn’t believe what was unfolding
before her.
Wasn’t Laura supposed to surprise them? And yet, Cameron turned out to be the chosen one?
“I see now, Ms. Jones must be joking with us. It must be!” She muttered.
Madison looked toward Laura, unable to contain her confusion. “Ms. Jones, are… are you mistaken? You’re joking, right?”
“Joking?” Laura’s gaze turned icy as she looked at Madison.
“Didn’t you say you wanted a surprise?”
“Yes, I did say that,” Madison replied.
“I intend to fulfill that promise today, right here.”
“What kind of surprise?” Madison’s hope reignited.
“I’m shutting you down on behalf of the Jones family,” Laura declared.
