Chapter 5
“I have the money you need, Mr. Morgan!” Bobby Kane cried, running over to Cameron.
“You must be Mr. Kane,” Cameron said gently.
“You can just call me Bob, sir!” Bobby wiped away the sweat on his brow. He looked panicked. “Why didn’t you inform me before your arrival, Mr. Morgan? I deeply apologize for making you wait so long out here!”
The man before Bobby was his big boss Lord Blackheart’s superior! One word from him could decide Bobby’s fate!
“You don’t need to be worried, Mr. Kane. Plus, you weren’t late. I was the one who arrived early,” Cameron said with a smile.
Bobby was touched. He’d thought Cameron would be a cruel, cold-blooded man. Who knew he was actually so courteous and humble!
“Thank you, Mr. Morgan!” Bobby said gratefully. “Here is the one million dollars you needed, sir!”
“You can take it back. I don’t need it anymore.” Cameron shook his head. “I apologize for making you come all this way for nothing.”
“Not at all, sir!” Bobby said fearfully. “Did something happen earlier, Mr. Morgan?”
“Nothing much. Just a little interruption. By the way, do you know who Archie Price is?”
“Archie Price?” Bobby asked, then nodded. “Oh, you mean him. He’s the eldest son of the Price family, one of the four strongest families here in Yrando. His father Magnus Price works with our company on some projects.
“He Just came by earlier on behalf of his father to discuss a joint venture for a project in the city. He offered 30 percent of the profits to us. Do you know him, Mr. Morgan?”
Cameron shook his head. “No, I was just asking.”
But Bobby thought differently. Bobby was naturally no ordinary man, being able to attain Blackheart’s approval and become CEO of Darth Holdings.
Bobby immediately understood the underlying meaning in Cameron’s words.
Bobby then said lightly, “I don’t think the Price family is genuine regarding the joint venture. Why don’t we leave this business opportunity to someone else?”
“Yes.” Cameron nodded.
Bobby secretly sighed in relief. Looks like he was right.
He then said respectfully, “Why don’t I take you on a tour around the company, Mr. Morgan?”
“Maybe next time, Mr. Kane. I have some urgent matters to tend to right now,” Cameron said.
All Cameron could think about was the hair bow. Based on what Madison said earlier, the hair bow probably belonged to one of her best friends.
“Alright, Mr. Morgan. Do contact me whenever you’re free. Here’s my card!” Bobby handed Cameron his name card.
Cameron accepted it with a smile. “Okay, Mr. Kane. You’ll be further needed to help manage the company from now on.”
“It is my honor to serve the company, Mr. Morgan,” Bobby said earnestly. To prove his determination, he added, “I’ll have my driver escort you wherever you wish to go later, sir!”
“That won’t be necessary. I’ll head there on my own.”
“Alright, sir.”
Cameron turned away, about to leave.
Just then, a young woman in an off-white dress walked into the front entrance.
She had long hair and looked to be in her late twenties. She hurried inside, nearly bumping right into Cameron.
“I’m so sorry!” She apologized to him.
Cameron gazed at her, finding her strangely familiar. However, they had never met one another prior to this.
