    Chapter 319 An Unexpected Visitor


    But since he was already inside, he was determined to bring her away with him.


    Speaking in a tone as level as usual, he questioned, “Didn’t you tell me that Marcus wanted to meet up


    with you for a favor? Where’s he now?”


    Stiffly, Cam squeezed out a smile and answered, “A-After i parted ways with Marcus, I received a call


    from Mr. Nn who invited me to attend Master Merlin’s birthday dinner. So, I came over here right after


    that.” Still wearing a poker-faced expression, George went along with her instead of exposing her lies.


    “Since you’ve already given him his gift, I think it’s about time you go back home since South has to


    wake up early for school tomorrow.” Cam didn’t even make an effort to argue with him as she agreed


    to go immediately, “Okay.”


    Just as she was keeping away her belongings, her arm was grabbed by someone all of a sudden.


    She spun around and found it was Ss, who was wearing an extremely glum expression with his eyes


    looking frighteningly frigid. At that moment, he felt an overwhelming desire to just spill the beans to


    George. Yet, when he noticed the anxiety on Cam’s face and the stares she was constantly throwing at


    him, he decided to suppress the raging fury in him. Horrified to see him holding her arm, Cam tried to


    wiggle out of his hold gently while speaking politely at the same time, “Mr. Nn, we shall get going now


    since it’s gettingte.” Ss, who refused to let her go, stared at George with hostility in his eyes. “Mr.


    Parsons, are you here just to pick her up?” George met his gaze calmly. While the two men were secretly


    having a stare down, their voices remained calm and collected as if whoever lost it first would be deemed


    the loser.


    “You may think of it that way.” “So, did you actually know that she was going to be here long before this?”


    “Yes I did because I followed her here.” George decided toe clean. Staring at George with a look of


    utter consternation, Cam’s heart sank when she heard that because it meant he knew that the


    exnation she offered just now was a lie. He had indeed followed her here! Secretly, she tugged at


    Ss’s shirt to stop him from asking more questions because the more he asked, the more embarrassed


    she would be.


    Curling the corners of his lips into a smile, Ss suggested, “Seems like you really care about her safety


    a lot. Since you’re already here, why don’t you take a seat and have some drinks?”


    George responded in an icy voice, “I’m not here as a guest. Cam, let’s go.” Cam struggled to break


    free from Ss but he refused to let her go. With an extremely surly face, his voice still sounded calm but


    deep down inside, he was so infuriated that he couldn’t wait to kill George. “I think you should say bye to


    Grandpa before you leave.” Slightly intimidated by Ss’s somber face, Cam responded obediently,


    “Okay.”


    Then, she turned to face George and said good-naturedly, “George, please wait for me while I say bye to


    Grandpa.”


    As keen as George was to bring her away, he wouldn’t stop her from doing the basic courtesy. Therefore,


    he didn’t say anything to stop her albeit still maintaining a bleak expression on his face.


    Meanwhile, Ss left an instruction to Penny, who had gone stupefied because of the scene, “Penny,


    please take care of Mr. Parsons!” “Okay,” Penny replied. Then, Ss headed straight upstairs together


    with Cam and South. He didn’t say anything along the way even until they had reached the second


    floor, and his face was so dark that it looked like the overcast sky before a storm.


    Cam assumed that he brought her upstairs just tosh out on her and she had mentally prepared


    herself to face that, but to her surprise, he was silent.


    Feeling bad to see him trying so hard to control his temper, she took the initiative to speak, “Please don’t


    be angry. Isn’t this kind of a good way to end this? At least people won’t be suspicious of our rtionship


    because I will be leaving together with George. Also, you won’t have to be worried that people will start


    plotting against us to break us apart.”


    Without uttering a word, Ss nced at her with his brooding eyes which contained waves of


    complicated emotion. In the end, his sanity took control of the situation and made sure he kept his cool.


    Cam reached for his hands and shared her thoughts with him, “Someone must have told George


    beforehand that I would be here, or he wouldn’t have followed me for no reason at all. In fact, I already


    felt that something fishy was going on at the time he went missing all of a sudden, but I just stopped


    bothering about it because I was preupied and since nothing bad actually happened to him in the


    end. Come to think of it, I think it’s very likely that he had already started to be suspicious of us then.”N?velDrama.Org holds this content.
