It meant that the shop already had a specific template and fabric reserved for Waylon. All his measurements and sizes were fixed, so all the tailor needed to do was only to cut the fabric and go straight into production.Cameron put the shirt back in the gift box. “Why didn’t you tell me that sooner? I actually had to take all his measurements for this shirt.”However, it turned out that all his measurements were already recorded in the shop’s system, and there was no need for her to provide his measurements to the shop at all.Daisie chuckled. “I didn’t expect you to be so attentive over a shirt.”“It’s compensation from me to him, after all.” She closed the lid of the gift box, inserted it in the gift bag, and got up. “Okay, then I’ll go home first.”Daisie escorted Cameron to the door and watched as she drove away. She was about to close the door when she suddenly saw two cars parked on the opposite side of the road turn around and drive in the same direction as Cameron did sho
Cameron held her eye in pain and clenched her jaw. “You’re not playing by the rules!”The man grabbed her by her hair and sniggered. “You really are a good fighter, so we need to use some tricks. It feels terrible, doesn’t it? You can only blame yourself for being Mr. Southern Sr.’s daughter!”Cameron couldn’t open her eyes. She was careless when dealing with these goons. “Alright, Ms. Southern, please come with us.” The man hit her, and she fainted. He then pushed her into the car and drove off quickly.Meanwhile, a black car rushed over while Waylon, who was in the passenger’s seat, tried calling Cameron, but no one picked up.Quincy drove. “Do you think something happened to her?”Saydie had said that ‘Mr. Southern’ was just as good a fighter as she was. It was impossible that something could have happened to her. Waylon stared at his screen and frowned. “Even the best fighter might not always win. Step on it.”Quincy accelerated and suddenly saw cars blocking their way. H
Donald stood on the deck while Chunky walked toward him. “Sir.”He took out a pack of cigarettes and held one between his fingers. “Get someone to deliver a message to Sunny that we have his daughter. The decision is in his hands.”Chunky nodded...Cameron sat on the bed, and there were deep marks from the abrasion around her wrists because she struggled.Even though the pepper spray was sprayed on her eyes, it wasn’t all of it, so she wouldn’t be blind. She slowly opened her eyes. It still hurt, and her eyes were so sensitive that even a little sunlight would make them hurt. She clicked her tongue and gave up on struggling, then lay down on the bed sideways and laughed at herself. “If I keep walking by the river, my feet will eventually get wet.”Someone opened the door and entered.The person placed down some food and sounded rude. “Ms. Southern, eat when you’re hungry. No one will be serving you.”Cameron got up. When her eyes finally adjusted to the brightness, she squin
Cameron’s shoulders started shaking after holding her head down for a long time. Before the man could think, she started laughing.The man felt chills, as well as that she was mocking her, so he grabbed her hair and yelled, “What the f*ck are you laughing at!?”Cameron opened her eyes. Her cold eyes were bloodshot, and her eyelids looked swollen. “People who are rude to me never have happy endings.”Before he could process what Cameron said, the latter got rid of her restraints and wrapped the rope around his throat tightly.The man kicked around while his face was swollen and red as he was running out of breath.The other man put Cameron in a chokehold to try to get her away, but she twisted his finger upward. He let go because of the pain, but Cameron grabbed onto his arm and twisted it, dislocating it.The man who was strangled slowly ran out of breath while Cameron put a foot on his head. Half his face was on the food on the floor.Cameron looked down at him with no expres
“Sigh, that’s life.”The butler hugged Cameron by her shoulders and looked doleful. “Sir…”Cameron didn’t cry her heart out but instead looked pale and void of emotions, like a hollow body. Suddenly, she had a surge of bravery and ran into the rain.“Sir!”She came to Sunny in the pouring rain. His head hung low, avoiding her eyes. She tugged at his hand. “Where’s Mom?”He didn’t speak. Cameron shook his arm when a tear fell. “Mom said that she was going to bring my present back. Why isn’t she back yet? Why did she lie? Does she not love me anymore?”Sunny’s body felt weak as the rain fell on his face and blended in with his tears. He handed her the present that he was clutching.Cameron took the box and cried out loud.Sunny knelt, hugged her, and said in a hoarse voice, “Cam, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have let her on the boat. I'm sorry.”Cameron cried until she lost her voice.She didn’t love the sea because it was where her mother met with her untimely death, but she
Mahina smiled. “I know that’ll be the truth.”…Cameron opened her eyes and suddenly realized that she was lying in a hospital bed. She then heard Sunny and Mahina’s voices.When they saw that she was awake, Sunny immediately walked over, looking worried. “Cam, you’re awake.”Mahina smiled. “You’re finally up. I’ll go get the doctor!”The doctor walked in and checked her, then spoke to Sunny. “She’s fine. Other than some liquid in her lung and a low fever, she’s alright.”Sunny nodded. “Thanks.”Mahina sat at the edge of the bed and asked, “How do you feel?”Cameron stared at the ceiling and didn’t answer.Sunny adjusted the grip on his cane. He was relieved but remembered something, and anger crawled back up. “You knew that Donald wouldn’t do anything even after he kidnapped you. All you needed to do was sit and wait for us to rescue you, but you just had to go against them. If Willie hadn’t saved you, I would have had to bury you instead of the other way around.”After sayi
Cameron was momentarily stunned and fell silent.Honestly, she did not know why she wanted to jump, either.She hated the sea, but she was still living on the island. She woke up to the sea every day but just couldn’t bring herself to like it.Cameron chose to stay in her room whenever she went to the sea to do business. She would never stay on the deck if she had nothing to do. When she found Nollace at sea, she had asked her crew to fish him out.In fact, she did not have to save him at all.After all, she did not have to care if he was alive or dead. But perhaps she thought about how her mother died in that freezing sea, so she changed her mind.Why would she choose to jump at that time? Was it because she did not want to fall into Donald’s hands and bring trouble to the Southern Clan? She was not sure about it. Cameron glanced at the pink pig plushie in Waylon’s hand as a trace of disgust crossed her eyes. “What are you? Kid? Don’t you feel embarrassed?” Waylon chuckled,
Donald was going to take over all of Fabio’s territory on the island today. This would be the only way if he wanted to go up against the Southern Clan.Chunky nodded. “Roger that, sir.”…The Southern Clan soon learned that Donald had taken over the southwest district. However, due to the cruelty of the Skull Club, several organizations in the southwest district refused to comply with Donald's orders.The shops were closed due to the chaos there. Even the passersby and local tourists were affected and had no choice but to hide in hotels.Sunny, Waylon, and others gathered in a private room in Yuzu Villa to figure out a way to solve this issue.After listening to Mahina’s report, Quincy commented angrily, “The way Donald does this will only leave the East Islands with a bad reputation. It'll also affect the business of the Southern Clan. If he does take control of Fabio's territory, I'm afraid the public won’t accept it.”“Since he's doing this, it means he doesn't care about the
