Chapter 236


    Madison was huddled on the ground. She wrapped her arms around her legs and sobbed


    uncontrobly.


    A deep sense of regret and helplessness washed over her deep down. She felt that if she hadn''t


    been so arrogant before, she might have been the one rising to sess by Cameron''s side. She


    would''ve been able to enjoy the happiness she had now lost by her own hands,


    Cameron was expressionless as he walked away. The sound of Madison''s sobs faded behind him.


    There were no signs of pity in his eyes for her. To him, she was no longer worth any of his


    attention.


    "Cameron, is it okay to leave Madison here alone?”


    Despite still feeling unsettled by Madison''s recent actions, Dakota couldn''t help but express her


    concern.


    She was worried Madison might do something drastic out of despair, potentially harming herself or


    others.


    “What could possibly happen to her?” Cameron''s voice was icy.


    His coldness was directed solely at Madison.


    “But your face is swollen. Let''s get some medicine to reduce the swelling when we get back,” he


    suggested as he showed concern for Dakota.


    “Do you know which medicine to get?” Dakota was surprised by this revtion.


    “I learned a bit from my mentor. Let''s get you home,” Cameron said gently.N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    Dakota nodded. She nced at Cameron''s distinct features. Her eyes shimmered with unshed tears.


    This was the first time Cameron had held.her. She felt a profound sense of security.


    Half an hourter, Cameron dropped Dakota off at her home. “Dakota, wait here for me. I''ll go to


    the nearby pharmacy to get some medicine,” he said.


    They didn''t have the necessary things at home.


    Dakota smiled warmly at him. Cameron left the apartmentplex and walked to the pharmacy


    about 300 yards away. The shop was run by an elderly man in his 70s.


    “Sir, I need three ounces each of ephedra, patchouli, poria, and winter melon seed,” Cameron said


    as he entered. He listed the ingredients with ease.


    "Right away, sir,” the shopkeeper replied


    He fetched the herbs for Cameron, weighed them, and handed them over. “Here are the


    ingredients you requested.”


    “Thank you,” Cameron said. He paid for the ingredients and prepared to leave.


    Just then, the door opened again. A woman in a white coat with big, wavy hair walked in. There was


    a perfume scent on her.


    Cameron twitched at the sight of her. Tara was the woman who had caused him trouble in the


    hospital ward before. He had blocked her on the Messenger app two days ago.


    Tara seemed preupied. Her usually keen awareness was dulled. Had it been a normal day, she


    might have already approached him. She might have tried to take him back to herb for research.


    But Cameron preferred it this way. It avoided unnecessary trouble. After all, Tara was not easy to


    deal


    with.


    Cameron nned to leave quietly. However, Tara''s brows furrowed slightly as if she sensed


    something. She turned and saw Cameron trying to sneak away.


    Her lips curled into an amused smile. Her unique, bell-likeughter filled the air. “Wha coincidence,


    handsome man. We meet again.”

    Cameron paused. He was surprised to be noticed by Tara. He turned and smiled at her. “Dr. Smith,


    what a coincidence, indeed.”
