"Is that Cam? Is Cam back?" Hearing the noises in the living room, Jane scurried out of her room anxiously.
"Hey, Mrs. Jennings!" Cameron greeted, turning to her.
"Cam!" Jane's eyes flickered emotionally. Cameron had made it back! Seeing that he had returned, she finally relaxed.
The next thing Jane realized was that Cameron and Dakota were locked in an embrace, and she cleared her throat. "Ahem… It's great that you're fine. Looks like I came at a wrong timing."
"Nothing of that sort, Mrs. Jennings." Awkwardly, Cameron scratched his head.
Meanwhile, Dakota turned stiff. After she snapped back to her senses, she broke away from Cameron as though electrocuted.
Embarrassment crept over her eyes as she glanced at her mother and Charles. She had forgotten that there were others around them.
Charles cleared his throat as well and said awkwardly, "If there's nothing else, we'll be leaving now, Mr. Morgan." The last thing he wanted was to stay behind and play the gooseberry.
Cameron smiled politely at him. "Thank you, Captain Jordan."
"You're welcome, Mr. Morgan!" Terrified, Charles quickly turned to Dakota and Jane. "Ms. and Mrs. Jennings, goodbye."
"Bye, Captain Jordan!"
"Alright!" After giving them a courteous nod, Charles left with the Black Flag Army, leaving only Cameron, Dakota, and Jane in the living room.
"Are you hurt, Cameron?" Dakota asked in concern.
In reply, Cameron shook his head. "No."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah."
"Then… What about the Zimmers? Didn't they do anything to you?"
"They're annihilated," Cameron answered. At the mention of this, iciness returned to his eyes.
"Are they dead?" Taking in a sharp breath, Dakota gaped at him with shocked, wavering eyes. "Did you do it?"
Cameron nodded. "Yes."
"H-How did you do it?" Dakota was in utter shock because the Zimmers had found themselves a general from the military!
