All morning, Cameron stayed in the martial arts center for training. She had been unable to stretch her body and put her skills to the test for a long time, so she grabbed almost everyone into the arena. They then started a deathmatch, with Cameron going against everyone else alone.After several rounds, the members of the Southern Clan all lost.Someone rubbed his sore arm as he staggered out of the ring. “Has the young master been in a bad mood these past two days? Look at how he fights. He was so ruthless. I thought I was going to die in there.”Another man patted him on the shoulder and smiled. “Alright, stop complaining. Let’s take it as an opportunity for us to improve ourselves.”Cameron stood in the ring with her arms akimbo and asked, “Is any one of you still capable of going for another round?”Some of the people standing under the arena waved their hands, and some shook their heads as all of them retreated from the ring one after another. She sighed and got out of the a
Andrei’s original intention was to use Cameron’s identity to threaten Sunny, but he did not expect such a reaction from Sunny.Andrei gnashed his teeth. “Aren’t you afraid that your men won’t accept her at all?”Sunny did not fall for the trap. “It’s not up to you to decide whether to accept Cam or not. Everyone else can see her capital and capability. As for the question of whether they will mind if the next leader of the clan is a man or a woman, do you guys mind that?”The bodyguards and members of the Southern Clan in the courtyard came back to their senses and said in unison. “We don’t mind that!”Why would being a man or a woman matter to them? The only thing they valued was strength, so even if Cameron was a woman, they had regarded her as their young master for so many years. She had also shown all of them that she had the potential and capability to uphold the title. Thus, why should she be restricted by her gender?“Y-You people...” Andrei was so infuriated that he was a
Waylon looked toward her and smiled. Meanwhile, at Southwest Villas…“What? Cameron is a woman?”Fabio was shocked to hear that too.Cameron was Sunny’s only son, and everyone on the island knew that. However, this ‘son’ turned out to be a daughter. The bodyguard who reported that looked at him. “Everyone in the Southern Clan has accepted it. Andrei tried to use this secret as leverage, but Mr. Southern Sr. couldn’t be bothered.”Fabio looked dark. “Andrei really turned into Donald’s dog. Donald doesn’t know Sunny well enough. It’s funny that he thought Sunny would compromise because of what he did.”He had been careless about Donald. If he had known better, he wouldn’t have let the wanted man stay on the island. Not only did Donald take advantage of him, but he also tried to take his place too.That was why the killers that Manuel had hired from the Skull Club would go to the Southern Clan’s territory to kill Cameron. It was because Donald had worked out something with the
Without Nollace, The Southern Clan might not be able to win this battle against Donald because even if they could sway Fabio, they wouldn’t be able to do that to Donald. Nollace understood him better than anyone else. Even if Fabio lost everything and Donald got the upper hand, Nollace would be able to attack while Donald was unprepared.A few days later, the Parkin warehouse was engulfed in flames. The previously glamorous Chamber of Commerce was only a pile of ash when the firefighters put out the fire. It was lucky that no one was hurt.When Fabio caught wind of it, he flew into a rage. “Why would fire randomly start there? Where’s Gail? Tell her to come to see me!”The others hung their heads low and didn’t speak. One of the men carefully answered, “Ms. Leroy is… Missing.”Fabio grabbed him by the collar. “What do you mean?”The man shook and said, “Ms. Leroy suddenly disappeared, and none of us can get a hold of her.”“Bad news!”A bodyguard rushed into the study, out of
Sunny and Waylon were playing a game of chess in the study when there was a knock on the door.Mahina walked in and stood next to them. “Sir, Parkin has been burned to the ground.”Sunny’s pawn dropped onto the board, and he smiled. “Ms. Quinn works quickly.”Waylon smiled. “Destroying Parkin would cut Puzo off from his money. He’s going to drown in debt, and on top of that, Donald is going to attack him. He’s not going to last long.”The butler stood at the doorway. “Sir.”Sunny turned over and saw someone standing behind the butler. It was Mateo. Mateo walked into the room and nodded. “Sir.”“Aren’t you…” Sunny was surprised and stood up. “You’re still alive?”Mateo smiled sadly and slowly said, “I thought I was going to die too. When Fabio sent Gail to kill me, I sliced open that person’s throat with a dagger. Everyone was hurt, and I was badly injured too.“I don’t know why, but Gail ended up helping me. She found somewhere for me to hide and told everyone that the man’s
“Are you interested in me?”Waylon’s sudden bluntness made Minzy blush and look down with a smile. “I felt a rush when I saw you. I guess that’s what love at first sight feels like.”Waylon nonchalantly looked around. “What do you like about me?”Minzy paused, then smiled. “Do I need a reason to?”“You don’t, but I don’t think I’m charming enough to make you fall for me at first sight.”“Are you not confident?” She looked shocked. He smiled. “If Cameron hadn't messed up the date intentionally, and if she were a man, would you date her?”Minzy couldn't answer that because if Cameron were a man and hadn’t messed up the date, she wouldn’t know if she would date her. And that was before she met Waylon.Minzy clearly said, “If I didn’t meet you, I might. Fate is such an interesting thing, right?”Waylon squinted. “You look like a good choice for a wife.”She looked happy. “Do you really think so?”He calmly continued. “But to me, we’re from two different worlds. You’re a well-re
Sunny, hiding behind the wall, smiled from ear to ear. Someone suddenly patted his back, so he jumped and turned around, only to see Cameron.Cameron crossed her arms. She was going to leave in her pajamas, so she wore a jacket to cover it and didn’t even bother to comb her hair. “What are you doing snooping around?”She looked over, but Sunny pulled her back. “Be careful, don’t let them see you.” After saying that, he couldn’t help but poke his head out. Cameron did the same and was surprised. “Isn’t that Wayne and Minzy? Are they dating?”Sunny took a deep breath to suppress his anger. “She’s confessing her feelings to him.”Cameron was shocked. “That’s quick.”Sunny smiled. “Do you feel like rushing over?”She didn’t even think about it. “I’m not crazy. Why would I interrupt them?”“Are you not angry?”“Why should I be angry?”Sunny couldn’t suppress his anger anymore. He took two steps back and kicked her while she wasn’t paying attention. She flew forward and almost ran
Cameron did not say anything and kept lowering her head.Waylon let out a meaningful smile and said, “Your inheritance isn’t enough for me to buy diners. I don’t have any intention of taking over your house or land. As for the pigs… Hmm, I can think about that.”Cameron squinted and asked, “You’re interested in pigs?”He fixed his gaze on her and replied, “Kind of.”Cameron felt something was not right, but she couldn’t explain that feeling as she focused on Waylon’s gaze. She kept staring at him until a cough rang out in the air. She hastily withdrew her gaze and turned around to look at Sunny, who was walking toward them.Sunny let out a sigh and shook his head. “I don’t know about you people, but I’ve come across this kind of person where they’re very smart at something, but when it comes to another thing, they’re as dumb as a pig.”Cameron stared at Sunny and said, “Why do I have a feeling that you’re talking about me?”Waylon placed his finger in front of his lips. God knew
