Chapter 287
Skyler’s eyes lit up. “Dad, you mean
Mark’s face remained cold, “This whole mess started because of that kid Cameron. I’m going to make him pay.”
Skyler grinned instantly. “It had to be Cameron who got Elijah to turn on us! He totally set this up.”
She’d been dying to teach Cameron a lesson for ages.
Now that Mark was stepping in? She believed Cameron was
finished.
After dinner, Cameron and Elijah waited by the curb to
catch
a
ride.

The night was calm and breezy, city lights flickering across the water.
Cameron’s bangs danced in the early summer wind, casting a soft shadow over her eyes.
Elijah looked over and said, “It’s still early. Want to jog home? It’ll be a good workout.”
Cameron considered for a second and then nodded. “Sure.”
A faint smile tugged at Elijah’s lips.
They ran along the riverside path, heading toward Noble Vista.
Cameron matched her pace to Elijah’s, running steadily and quietly alongside him.
Elijah glanced at the glimmering water. “The city looks nice at night.”
“Yeah,” Cameron said softly, “it’s beautiful.”
He turned to her. “Have a dream school yet?”
“Not really,” she said.
“What about a major?”
Cameron thought for a moment. “Medicine.”

She figured if she was going to start a pharmaceutical company, she should at least look like she knew what she was doing.
And she did know–technically–but she needed credentials to back it up.
Elijah raised a brow. “Didn’t peg you for the medical type.”
Cameron just gave him a noncommittal smile.
“What about you?” she asked casually.
“I’ll probably double major. Medicine and business,” Elijah replied.
Cameron shot him a curious glance. “You’re good at math. Ever think of doing something in that direction?”
He shook his head. “I’ll need to take over the company eventually.”

She nodded in understanding.
Not everyone born into power got to choose freely.
Elijah added, “Who knows? We might end up at the same university.”
Maybe even the same program. Same dorm.
Cameron laughed. “Maybe.”
She didn’t really care either way.
They kept running, stride for stride, in perfect sync along the quiet waterfront.
As they neared Noble Vista, Elijah slowed a little, falling behind so he could watch Cameron ahead of him.
By the time they reached the entrance, both of them came to a stop, catching their breath.
Elijah lived in a neighboring villa now–he’d moved in that week.
He turned to Cameron and asked, “Can I come by tomorrow to study again?”
“Sure,” she said with a smile.
He gave a lazy wave. “See you then.”
