Chapter 4

Cameron was stunned. So he had gotten it wrong all these years. There was another hair bow exactly like the one he had! The kind girl from those years ago wasn't Madison! "Oh? Was I correct?" Madison's tone was even more disgusted now as she thought she was right about Cameron's actions. Cameron's mind was buzzing. He wasn't listening to Madison at all. "Why aren't you talking? Weren't you being so talkative earlier? Cat got your tongue?" Madison pressed on. She got more and more agitated as she spoke. "How could I have spent five years with someone like you? I'm warning you, Cameron Morgan–if you don't compensate me for mental distress, then I'm never letting you off! You sick pervert! How long have you had your eyes on my best friend?" "Can you shut up?" Cameron gazed sternly at Madison after returning to his senses. "I have never stolen your best friend's belongings!" He was feeling too overwhelmed right now yet there was still irritating noise around him. Madison was stunned. Did Cameron... just yell at her? Cameron had been nothing but gentle and meek towards Madison throughout their five years together! "Ahh!" Madison got angrier the more she thought about it. She yelled at Cameron, "How dare you yell at me when you've been leeching off my resources all these years, you useless bum!" "Can you stop yelling? Do you have any idea how annoying it is?" Cameron was getting angry at Madison. "I already told you I didn't steal your friend's stuff!" "No? Then mind sharing where you got it from now?" Madison gritted out angrily. "What does that have to do with you?" Cameron's eyes were cold. "You!" Madison's face was now blotchy purple. "Is this how you behave after our divorce, Cameron? I was really blind to have decided to be with a useless, mentally unstable pervert like you. You're disgusting! If you don't compensate me today, then I'll..." "Just tell me how much money you want!" Cameron interrupted her. He was not in the mood to argue with Madison. All he wanted to do was find the hair bow's actual owner! Cameron's directness stunned Madison for a moment. But Madison swiftly grew disdainful upon recalling how Cameron was like. "One million. I want you to compensate me with a million dollars!" Madison demanded immediately. A million dollars was nothing much to her, but she knew this was a sky high amount to Cameron. Cameron could barely dish out a hundred dollars, not to mention one million. Madison clearly intended to embarrass Cameron greatly in public. Who gave him the guts to treat her his way, she thought meanly. "Alright." Cameron didn't waste anymore time. "Did you hear me clearly? I want one million dollars!" Madison snapped. "I'm not deaf," Cameron replied coldly. He knew what Madison intended to do. But did she really think he was still the old Cameron? "Alright. Then hurry up and get me the money. I want it right now!" Madison demanded. She wanted to see how Cameron was going to get all that money! Cameron calmly took out his phone and called Blackheart. "Have someone bring one million dollars in cash to the company right now, Blackheart. I have an urgent need for it." "Right away, sir. I'll have Mr. Kane get the money ready for you!" After hanging up, Cameron said to Madison, "Just wait for two minutes. I've asked someone to bring the cash here." "Hah!" Madison scoffed sarcastically. "You're able to get money with just a phone call? Who do you think you are? The son of the richest family in Yrando? "And did I hear correctly? Did you just call Blackheart? Do you have any idea who Blackheart is? He's the richest man in the world! Can you invent a name we've never heard of next time? Or else you'd just be embarrassing yourself!" Cameron ignored her, making Madison grind her teeth in anger. What was a poor bum like him doing putting up such an act in front of her? Tick tock. A minute soon went by. There was still no activity from the office. Madison urged impatiently, "Two minutes have passed. Where is this person you mentioned?" Cameron stayed silent. He was internally counting the seconds. Half a minute more. "Playing dumb again, are you?" Madison gloated. "Heh," Archie sneered and shook his head. "Forget it, Madison. You know he won't be able to fork out the cash. Let's not waste our time on someone like him. Don't forget we still have a dinner date. "Hey kid, I'll pay this one million on your behalf. Think of it as repayment for taking care of Madison all these years for me. Take this as a reminder to not be someone who is all bark and no bite." Archie then wrapped his arm around Madison's waist like he'd just won a competition. "You're so gracious, dear," Madison snaked an arm around Archie's and kissed his cheek, intending to piss off Cameron. Cameron remained calm. Now that he knew the hair bow didn't belong to Madison, she was no longer of any significance to him. So why would Cameron have any emotions for a complete stranger? "You're lucky this time, Cameron. You better thank Mr. Price for his kindness!" Madison said, oblivious to Cameron's thoughts. The two then left the office building together. Shortly after they left, the elevator doors opened again. Two minutes on the dot. A sweaty man in a black suit sporting a large belly was hurrying two of his subordinates in the elevator. "Hurry up! If we slow Mr. Morgan down in any way, none of us are keeping our jobs!" "Yes, Mr. Kane!" The two employees dragged a large bag between them as they walked out. The moment the suited man looked up, he spotted Cameron standing by the front entrance. He then quickly ran over, saying, "Mr. Morgan!"
