Ex-husband Unmasked He’s a Billionaire novel Chapter 13

Chapter 13
Cameron opened the message and saved the number.

“Good evening, Mr. Morgan!” Dakota quickly messaged Cameron. There was even an emoji at the end of her sentence.

“Good evening,” Cameron typed out on his phone.

“Thank you so much for what you did earlier today!” Dakota thanked him once again.

If it weren’t for Cameron’s help, Bobby Kane would never have agreed to work with her family. Cameron was literally her family’s savior!

“You’re too kind, Ms. Jennings. If you really want to thank me, then I don’t mind a couple more coffees, haha!”

“Sure! But I’m afraid that won’t happen in the next few days. My best friend is getting married, the one who called me today during our chat. I’ll be accompanying her while she tries on the bridal gowns and I’m even going to be her bridesmaid. I’ll definitely treat you to coffee after all this is over!”

“Bridesmaid? That sounds fun.”

“Yeah. I was still studying overseas the last time Maddy had a wedding. This is a good opportunity for me to make up for my past regrets. Poor Maddy married such a loser back then.” Dakota couldn’t help but get angry upon mentioning this.

That loser not only disturbed Madison today, he even hurt her brother. It was too despicable of him!

Madison had told Dakota all about it earlier today over the phone call.

“Heh. Really?” Cameron’s lips twitched awkwardly as he typed out the message.

He was wondering whether Dakota would block him right away if he revealed his identity to her.

“Really! I get so angry whenever I think of him!” Dakota typed angrily.

“Then let’s not talk about him anymore,” Cameron responded awkwardly.

“Mr. Morgan, the Venizon Cruise ship will be docking here in Yrando in three days’ time. Will you be going?” Dakota replied, trying to find another topic of conversation.

“Yes.”

“Are you attending Maddy and Mr. Price’s wedding too, Mr. Morgan?”

“Uh… no, I’m just there to take a look around the ship.”

“Alright. Who knows, we might meet one another again on the ship.” Dakota looked forward to it.

“Haha, yeah.” As Cameron typed the message, he prayed they wouldn’t actually meet.

Madison would be there and Dakota still obviously had a misunderstanding towards Cameron.

“By the way, can I ask you something, Mr. Morgan?” Dakota suddenly typed out.

“What is it?”

“Um… have we met before?”

“Why the sudden question?” Cameron’s heart leapt lightly. Had Dakota recognized him?

“I was wondering why you helped me earlier today at Darth Holdings,” Dakota revealed.

Cameron smiled and replied, “Maybe. It might just be fate. Do you believe in fate?”

Fate?

Dakota’s heart leapt in her chest, and then started to beat fast.

Was… Cameron confessing his feelings towards her?

“Um… what do you mean by that, Mr. Morgan? I don’t understand.” Dakota’s fingers were trembling as she typed it out.

“Haha, don’t worry about it. I didn’t mean anything by it,” Cameron typed out, oblivious to Dakota’s thoughts.

Dakota’s beating heart sped up even more.

Was she correct then?

H-How should she respond?

By saying she believed in fate too?

But wouldn’t that make her seem too rash?

Plus, what if Cameron was merely joking with her? Wouldn’t things be awkward then?

Cameron mistook Dakota’s hesitation as disinterest, so he quickly typed, “Sorry, something came up that I need to take care of right now. Let’s talk again some other time.”

When he turned around, Pia came into sight. Beside her was Skyler, his right arm still in a cast. Both of their faces were cold and hard.

“Is there some rule saying I can’t be here?” Cameron asked with a cocked brow. “You two are here too.”

“Hmph!” Pia sneered, saying, “We’re here because Madison’s wedding is being held here. What about you?”

“I’m just here taking a stroll,” Cameron responded flatly.

“Taking a stroll? Do you think this is the supermarket? You’ve been lingering around the entrance for so long. Are you trying to sneak in and ruin my daughter’s wedding?”

“Sorry, but I’m not interested in Madison’s wedding.”

“Bullshit!” Pia snapped.

“Why are you wasting your breath with him, Mom? Do you think he has the capacity to ruin Madison’s wedding even if he wanted to?” Skyler spoke up, tone filled with disdain.

“He needs permission from the shipowner or a wedding invite to board the cruise ship. Does he really think this ship is like any other ordinary ship that only needs a ticket?”

“You’re right, Skyler!” Pia agreed. “So his plan is doomed to fail!”

“Exactly, Mom,” Skyler replied wickedly. Cameron had broken his arm last time, so Skyler vowed to humiliate Cameron as much as possible today!

“Are you finished? If you are, please don’t get in my way of boarding the ship,” Cameron replied in a flat tone.

Skyler’s expression changed. It felt like he’d just tossed a punch at thin air.

He ground his teeth and glared at Cameron, “Why are you still putting up an act, you useless leech? I’m going to see just how you plan on getting onto the cruise ship without an invite!”

“Then watch closely,” Cameron said.

He then walked towards the Venizon Cruise ship.

Cameron didn’t want to waste anymore time on people like Skyler and Pia. They had different understandings of the world, after all.
