Chapter 75
Dakota blinked her eyes a few times; her cheeks were rosy.
If she was asked to repeat, she wouldn’t be able to bring herself to.
Cameron was stunned.
He clearly didn’t expect Dakota to say that. But deep down, he was deeply moved by it.
“It’s alright, I’m strong. I can sleep on the floor,” Cameron patted his chest, trying to show he was tough.
Dakota gently bit her lip and said, “I asked for your help, yet I let you sleep on the floor. It’s really embarrassing. Besides, you can cover yourself with a blanket if you sleep on the bed, so it will be like we are sleeping separately.”
She believed in Cameron’s character.
Cameron hesitated for a moment. He understood Dakota was being considerate of him.
Not wanting to refuse Dakota’s kindness, he smiled and said, “Then I will obey your command.‘
Sleeping with two separate blankets would indeed ensure there would be no physical contact.
“Okay.” Dakota nodded.
Cameron climbed onto the bed and lay next to Dakota, covering his body with a blanket.
Dakota’s eyes twitched slightly, and her heartbeat quickened.
Phew.
Cameron also took a long breath, trying to calm himself down.
There was only silence for a long while.
Both of them were trying to get used to it.
After a long while, Dakota broke the silence and spoke first, “Cameron, I really want to thank you for helping me today. If it weren’t for you, Aunt Florence and her family would definitely give us a hard
time.”
Cameron’s eyes flickered. He immediately asked, “Dakota, can you tell me the exact problems the Jennings family is currently facing?”
“Sure,” Dakota said.
“It all started more than two months ago. My grandfather is addicted to gambling. He borrowed a huge amount of debt from loan sharks and had no choice but to use half of the company’s assets to pay the debt.
“The Jennings family lost many of its loyal customers because of this, and the production value also

dropped. As a result, my grandfather fell seriously ill and was hospitalized.”

She continued, “To save the foundation of the Jennings family, my father decided to take a bet two months ago and upgraded the company. He hoped that he could turn losses into profits. However, it ultimately failed.
“After that, in order to fill this gap, my father sold off all the assets that could be sold from home, but it’s still not enough.
“Originally my family could have stayed out of this matter, but my father cares too much about this family. He doesn’t want my grandfather to wake up and see the Jennings family turn into nothing, so
he…”
“So that’s the story,” Cameron murmured. That was what happened to the Jennings family.
“Cameron, thank you for helping me. I’m really grateful for it! If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t know how to convince Mr. Kane to partner with the Jennings family. There wouldn’t be any hope for the Jennings family,” Dakota said.
She truly appreciated Cameron’s help in securing this important contract!
“Why are you being so polite with me?” Cameron smiled and waved his hand.
He then asked, “By the way, does the Jennings family still need money? Are those two hundred million dollars enough?”
“It’s enough.” Dakota nodded firmly.
With those two hundred million dollars, along with the upcoming projects, she believed it would help the Jennings family get through these difficult times.
“Well, that’s good. If it’s not enough, just let me know.” Cameron smiled.
“Huh?” Dakota was stunned.
“What’s wrong?” Cameron looked at Dakota, looking puzzled.
“So, the two hundred million dollars Mr. Kane transferred to me is not an advance from the project funds. It’s your own money?” Dakota asked.
Before Cameron mentioned this, she had always thought that the two hundred million dollars from
Mr. Kane belonged to the project funds.
She never expected that it was Cameron’s own money!
“Haha, yes,” Cameron replied.
“Cameron, are you really that rich?” Dakota looked at Cameron in astonishment.
“It’s not that I’m rich. It’s just that I made quite a bit of money from my previous business ventures,” Cameron casually made up a reason.
“Wow!” Dakota gasped.

She looked at Cameron with a strange expression, as if she was looking at a freak.
“Haha, don’t look at me like that. It’s making me feel embarrassed,” Cameron laughed.
Dakota looked at the smile on Cameron’s face, but she was suddenly troubled by something else.
Thinking about how certain things would turn out in the future, she couldn’t help but ask, “Cameron, in the future… are you going to leave Yrando?”
