Cameron seemed not to notice the mockery in Danny's eyes and replied indifferently, "I just run a small business."
"Doing business? That's my area of expertise!" Danny perked up immediately, boasting, "I've been doing quite well in the real estate business lately. Young man, if you ever need advice, feel free to ask me. I could show everything."
In his eyes, the business Cameron mentioned was just some small-scale trading incomparable to his endeavors!
This was the perfect opportunity for him to show off in front of Tara!
"Thanks for the kind offer. But I think I'll pass." Cameron declined politely.
Danny was taken aback.
He realized he had figured out the reason why Cameron rejected his offer. He shook his head and said earnestly, "Young man, it's good for a man to be prideful. But sometimes, for the sake of so-called pride, giving up opportunities is really a loss. You wouldn't want Tara to suffer in the future, would you?"
"Don't worry, she won't," Cameron stated confidently.
Danny's mouth twitched as he was shocked by how good Cameron was at playing cool.
"Kid, Mr. Shaw is already showing you some respect. Don't you realize?"
At this point, the women who disliked Cameron spoke up first.
"That's right. You have no capabilities, yet you're so arrogant!"
"Do you realize how lucky you are? Danny's offering you a chance that many would want. It's not just help—it's an opportunity. Don't throw it away."
"If you guys want it so badly, you can keep it for yourselves." Cameron looked up and said calmly to the women.
"You!" The women were choked by his response.
The male peers shook their heads as they watched Cameron's stubborn pride. They pondered on what Tara saw in him.
"Alright, alright, let's not argue anymore. Everyone has their own ambitions. Since the young man wants to stick to his plot, let's not force him." Danny played the good guy by speaking again.
"See? You should learn from Danny's generosity!" The women gave Cameron a disdainful look.
