Chapter 47
“Of course, we’re here for the banquet.” It was Cameron who broke the silence.
He gave Madison a cold look.
“You’re here for the banquet?” Madison paused, but a mocking sneer soon appeared on her lips. “I haven’t settled the score with you yet for yesterday’s Incident. And now you have the nerve to attend my banquet? Did I invite you?”
Timothy was hosting this banquet as compensation for Madison’s ruined birthday party yesterday. But she did not invite Cameron and Dakota!
“Why should we care whether you invited us? After all, Timothy invited us,” Cameron uttered indifferently, not bothering to argue with Madison. He pulled out two chairs and said to Dakota,” Dakota, have a seat.”
With that, he sat down. Dakota hesitated for a moment before also sitting down.
“You’re so shameless!” Madison turned red with anger at the two uninvited
guests.
The reason Timothy had invited everyone yesterday was to show respect to her and Archie’s father.
“Madison’s right! You’re so shameless!” Madison’s friends piped up from behind her.
“Madison never invited you. How could you show up unannounced? And you’ve even taken a seat without permission! Do you think you own this place?” Stephanie hissed.
“Hold on, Stephanie. Your words won’t get through to them! After all, they almost got us killed yesterday! If they weren’t this shameless, they wouldn’t have dared to show up in front of us again!”
“They’re terrible!”
“Why didn’t I realize how shameless you were before, Dakota?”
“Birds of a feather really flock together!”
“Absolutely.”
Dakota grimaced under the endless streams of insults. She couldn’t help but pinch her thighs to stop herself from trembling.
“Don’t worry. I’m here.” Cameron took hold of Dakota’s cold hands.
Dakota relaxed under his touch. She didn’t know why, but Cameron always gave her a sense of safety.
“They’re so fucking disgusting!” Stella insulted.
Cameron chuckled, not at all affected by Stella’s obvious provocation.
When Stella saw Cameron’s smile, she couldn’t help but sneer at the pair. “Would you look at that? They’re so shameless that they could still smile despite being insulted!”

“Don’t you think you’re annoying?” Cameron gave Stella a cold look.
“What did you say?” Stella roared angrily.
“Cameron Morgan! You’d better watch your tongue around my friends! Who do you think you are?” Madison slammed the table in anger and pointed an accusing finger at Cameron.
“Brat! You’d better get the fuck out right now if you’re just here to stir up trouble!” Archie warned. As the banquet’s host, he had an image to uphold.
“You’re the one who is causing us trouble.” Cameron said, turning to Archie calmly.
“Is that so?” Archie said with a faint smile.
Then, it quickly turned into a sneer. “So what if we’re giving you a hard time? Mr. Dashner is only hosting this banquet because of my father. If you feel mistreated, you should ask him to throw a banquet for you too!”
Archie snickered. “But, do you have what it takes?“
