The next morning, as the sky was just starting to lighten, Dakota opened her eyes and prepared to freshen up.
"Dakota, you're up so early." Sensing Dakota's movements, Cameron also opened his eyes.
"yeah." Dakota nodded lightly, looking troubled after a sleepless night.
"Still thinking about yesterday?" Cameron asked softly when he saw her expression.
After a moment's hesitation, Dakota nodded. "Yeah."
Cameron took a deep breath. He sat up in bed and looked at Dakota. "Is it because of Laura?"
"Partly," Dakota admitted.
"I'm sorry..." Cameron seemed to realize something as a wave of guilt surged through his chest.
How could he not have realized how distressed Dakota would be seeing him upset about Laura?
He knew that what happened last night must have caused Dakota great emotional pain.
After all, no woman would want to see her boyfriend still have feelings for another woman.
Cameran blamed himself for not controlling his emotions when he returned after talking to Laura.
"Dummy..." Dakota suddenly found his guilty look adorable. It dispelled yesterday's gloom.
"How did I suddenly become a dummy?" Cameron was puzzled.
"I wasn't upset about that incident," Dakota said quietly.
She knew the special bond that Cameron and Laura had.
It was impossible for Cameron to completely disregard it. If he were that indifferent, he wouldn't be the Cameron she liked.
Although she occasionally felt a tinge of jealousy, she had never blamed Cameron for this matter.
What truly saddened her was the gap between her and Laura.
Every time Cameron faced difficulties, all she could do was worry. She wasn't like Laura, who could assist Cameron.
Cameron didn't know what Dakota was thinking, but he noticed her low spirits and asked with concern, "So, what's bothering you? Can you tell me?"
