Chapter 277
The whole room fell silent,
All eyes turned to Cameron. They were curious to see who would dare to say such words to Kelvin.
“Tara has a boyfriend?”
Kelvin’s face immediately darkened.
“That’s right.”
Cameron chuckled.
“Who?”
“Me.”
There was a collective gasp from the crowd.
Tara’s gaze trembled as she looked at Cameron. She hadn’t expected him to help her voluntarily. She was touched, but she couldn’t help worrying for him either.
She reached under the table and tugged lightly at Cameron’s sleeve, whispering, “Forget it,
Cameron…”
“It’s okay.”
Cameron gave Tara a reassuring smile.
Kelvin observed this scene from the stage. Veins immediately popped on his forehead.
This kid dared to snatch the woman Kelvin had set his eyes on!
“Kid, you’re not joking with me, right?” Kelvin spoke into the microphone again, his tone hinting at
intimidation.
“Mr. Zimmer, do you think I would joke about something like this?” Cameron replied indifferently, as if completely oblivious to the threatening tone in Kelvin’s words.
“Good! Very good!”
Kelvin smirked as he gave Cameron a thumbs–up.
“You’re the first person to challenge me so openly!”
“Is that so? Well, I’m truly honored,” Cameron replied, pursing his lips.
This scene only fueled Kelvin’s inner rage.
This kid, couldn’t he tell that he was being sarcastic?
Cameron’s actions immediately caused a stir among the audience.

People began whispering and speculating.
“Who is this guy? How dare he steal Kelvin’s woman?”
“Is he genuinely clueless or faking it?”
“He looks familiar. Have we seen him somewhere before?”
“Don’t you remember? He’s the representative chosen by Ms. Jones. We saw him at the ceremony.”
“Oh, it’s him! I remember now!”
Many voices from below caught Kelvin’s attention.
He looked at Cameron with disdain.
“I was wondering who it was. It turns out it’s just a representative.
“I heard someone was humiliated by Mr. Xander during that ceremony. Was it you?”
The mockery in Kelvin’s eyes intensified.
He wanted to expose Cameron’s vulnerability in front of everyone. Additionally, he wanted Tara to see how inferior her companion was compared to him.
However, Cameron remained unfazed by Kelvin’s attempts to provoke him.
Instead, he simply smiled and said, “So, Mr. Zimmer, what exactly are you trying to prove by bringing up Mr. Xander? That you’re just one of his lackeys?”
“You!”
Kelvin’s eyes flashed with rage.
The audience below was shocked by Cameron’s boldness. Their gazes turned sympathetic and pitiful
toward him.
They reckon he must have a death wish to speak to Kelvin like that.
But Cameron paid no heed to their reactions.
He kept his gaze on Kelvin and continued calmly, “Well, Mr. Zimmer, if you have nothing else to say, please find another dance partner or simply announce the start of the party. Everyone is rather busy, and we wouldn’t want to waste anyone’s precious time.”
Kelvin’s face darkened even further, but he said nothing more. He simply turned away and signaled for the party to begin.
