Chapter 172
Madison crossed her arms and waited for Cameron’s embarrassment to unfold.
Pia also wore smirks of derision.
By this time, Cameron had already reached the entrance to the waterfront. Just as they expected him. to be turned away by the security, Cameron entered the waterfront smoothly and disappeared from their sight.
“What?” Madison was dumbfounded. Archie and the others were equally shocked. They refused to believe what they had just witnessed, thinking he couldn’t enter.
“Let’s go and ask!” Madison decided impulsively.
She took a deep breath before approaching the security guard. She couldn’t believe that Cameron had the right to enter the waterfront.
“Excuse me, did someone just enter?” Madison couldn’t help but ask.
“Is that any of your concern?” The security guard glanced at Madison and responded indifferently.
“Um, I… I know him. Why was he allowed to enter the waterfront?” Madison persisted.
“Why do you ask so many questions?” the security guard snapped.
He was too lazy to entertain Madison’s queries.
The guard had been eyeing Madison and her family suspiciously for a while as they were loitering around the waterfront entrance and taking photos with their phones. Besides, he was dumbfounded by their courage to argue with one of Laura’s special guests, Cameron!
“Hey, what’s with that attitude towards my daughter? Be careful, or I’ll complain to Ms. Jones about you!” Pia intervened after seeing Madison being “bullied” by the security guard.

“What’s with the arrogant attitude? You probably don’t know it yet, but Ms. Jones has chosen my daughter and son–in–law personally. They are the stars of the celebration happening in five days!” Pia boasted loudly.
Her face was proud as she continued, “If you don’t show some respect now, you’ll regret it after the
celebration!”
“Are
you out of your mind?” Anger flashed in the security guard’s eyes. “I’m warning you, if you cause any more trouble at the waterfront entrance, don’t blame us for what’s going to happen!”
The security guard knew the real star of the celebration had just entered–Cameron. Even though Laura hadn’t explicitly stated it, it was clear from her special instructions that he was important. As for these nobodies, the security guard wondered how they could be the ones for whom Laura would

host a banquet.
“Whatever you plan to do to me, I dare you to do it!” Unaware of the situation, Pla rolled her sleeves and was ready for a confrontation.
“Damn you!” The security guard was furious as he reached for his baton.
Pia backed down after seeing the security guard getting serious.
“Mom, let it go…” Madison intervened, trying to diffuse the situation. “Ms. Jones hasn’t announced the selections yet. They obviously don’t know. It’s not worth arguing with them.”
“Hmph, I’ll remember their faces. Just wait until after the celebration!” Pla huffed.
“Now get lost!” The security guard’s tone was menacing.
“Hmph!” Pia left indignantly. She believes in the adage that discretion is the better part of valor.
