Chapter 323
“Lena, don’t look at me that way. I’m not hiding anything from you. I’m… I’m just an
ordinary folk.” Cameron felt the hair on his back stand upon seeing Lena’s inquisitive gaze on him.
“Ordinary folk? Do you think I’ll buy that?” Lena did not believe Cameron one bit. She looked straight at him. “If I recall correctly, all army, navy, and air force troops were employed, right? How could ordinary folk have so much power?”
“Uh… Alright then. I’ll tell you the truth. I have the Dragon Token.” Cameron knew he could no longer hide it from Lena, so he came clean.
It was too hard for him to come up with an excuse. Besides, Lena was part of the military region, so letting her know about his identity would not exactly be a breach of confidentiality.”
Furthermore, he believes that Lena would help him keep this a secret.
“You have the Dragon Token?” Lena suddenly stopped breathing. She was in the military region. How could she not know the meaning of the Dragon Token?
The possessor of the Dragon Token has more power than the Combatant Commander of the Levin Military Region! That person would be the most powerful person besides the President!
How could it be Cameron? Just by his age alone, it did not make sense at all! In her memory, the possessor of the Dragon Token was the same age as the Combatant Commander!
“I see you still like to come up with false stories!” Lena came to her senses and pouted at Cameron. She said with disbelief, “Nothing that you say is true! The last time, you were bragging to me about how you’re the richest person in this world and how you’re the leader of the military and political world.
“Now you’re telling me you have the Dragon Token! Do you really think I’ve not met the possessor of the Dragon Token before? He is an old man around the same age as the Combatant Commander!”
“But I really am!” Cameron retorted. He was the current possessor of the Dragon Token. At the same time, he was the leader of the military and political world, not to mention the wealthiest man in the world.
The old man that Lena was referring to should be his mentor.
“So, who is this person next to you? The second wealthiest man in the world?” Lena rolled
2/2
her eyes at Cameron. While saying that, she glanced at Blackheart next to Cameron.
She was too worried about Cameron’s safety to notice Blackheart. Blackheart was indeed the wealthiest man in the world!
“Hmm… Strictly speaking, he is indeed the world’s second wealthiest.” Cameron pondered for a while and thought that Lena was right.
“Okay! Go on! Go on with your lies!” Lena said, “You always do this! You care so much about your image! You deserve all the trouble that you land in! I’m sure Blackheart must have solved the problem for you this time, right?”
Lena thought long and hard. Only Blackheart, who was the world’s wealthiest man could have such authority. After all, money could buy you a lot of things.
Perhaps Blackheart knew a few commanders of the few military regions, he got them to employ troops over to help. It was not too absurd to think so.
“Uh… you noticed.” This time, Cameron did not clarify further. He just went along with what Lena said.
He had spent some time with her. Other than her fiery temper and how sometimes she could be rather dense, she was otherwise not bad.
This
way, it would be good too. He no longer needed to explain himself.
“I knew it! I was right!” Lena raised her chin smugly, secretly praising herself for her intelligence.
She continued asking, “By the way, how did you get Blackheart to come and help you?”
Blackheart was the world’s wealthiest man. Cameron was just a tiny representative of Yrando. How could he get such a big shot to come and help him out?
“Uh… Lord Blackheart, I think it’s best you explain to Colonel Bailey.” Cameron found it too troublesome to come up with something, so he threw it to Blackheart instead. He smiled at Blackheart with deference.
Besides, Lena would not believe whatever he said anyway. He might as well get Blackheart to explain.
Blackheart almost passed out when he heard Cameron calling him Lord Blackheart. Seeing how respectful Cameron was to him was just like killing him.
