Chapter 404
15 minutes later, they arrived in a quiet neighborhood of villas.
The villas there were considerably older than those in other neighborhoods, so the prices for them weren't too high. It was a perfect place for the elderly to live their twilight years.
Tara slowly stopped her car in front of a villa. She was clearly unhappy.
Cameron wanted to ask her about it, but he decided not to say anything.
Tara took a key out and opened the door to the villa. The moment she entered, she saw Lena, who was still taking care of Dylan.
"Lena, you still haven't left yet?" Tara was a little surprised. She thought that Lena would return to the military region after sending Dylan back home.
"Not yet. I was waiting for you to return. Speaking of which, Cameron, why are you here as well?" Lena looked at him.
"Colonel Bailey, you make it sound as if I'm not welcome here at all," Cameron said. He hadn't offended her, had he?
"No..." Lena wanted to say something, but she suddenly fell silent. She had thought that Cameron wouldn't follow Tara back, so she had intended to wait for Tara to return before asking her if Cameron had gone to Global Plaza.
In fact, she had regretted it after telling Cameron not to go to Global Plaza. She had meant well, but on second thought, that would've probably piqued Cameron's curiosity.
"Colonel Bailey, do you have something to say to me?" Cameron seemed to have sensed it. He raised an eyebrow in perplexity.
"Fine. I'll just ask you directly." Lena was not the type of person who liked to beat around the bush. She asked Cameron, "Cameron, did you go to Global Plaza?"
"I did." Cameron did not lie.
"So, did you see Laura's wedding photos?" Lena's heart skipped a beat.
"I saw them."
"Cameron, don't do anything reckless! Their wedding-"
"Don't worry, I won't attend their wedding." Cameron's eyes had a glint of self-deprecation.
Laura had already looked for him personally and said all those words to him. If he were to still go to ker wedding after that, he would be truly asking for it.
"Alright, then." Lena was instantly relieved.
She had been afraid that Cameron would be provoked to do something reckless, but she was no longer worried, now that Cameron had assured her that he wasn't going to

attend the wedding. She could finally return to the Capital Military Region feeling relieved.
"Colonel Bailey, thank you for your concern." Cameron smiled at her gently. He knew that Lena had been worried about him.
"No one's concerned about you. I
just don't want you to go there and
get a beating. After all, I also dislike Alan Xander." Lena harrumphed as
she crossed her arms in front of her chest.
"Yes, of course." Cameron nodded. He now understood that Lena had a sharp tongue but was actually soft-hearted.
"By the way, what happened to Tara? She doesn't look too well." Once the worry in her heart was resolved, Lena soon shifted her focus to Tara.
When she saw how down Tara looked, she asked with concern, "Did the two of you fight?"
"No." Cameron chuckled bitterly.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
"Then, what's going on with her?" Lena looked confused.
"Someone left a bouquet of roses and a signed card on Dr. Smith's car. She's been like this ever since she saw the card," Cameron recounted. "Roses? Card?" Lena furrowed her brows. She pondered in silence for a while before she suddenly remembered something.
Her eyes gleamed coldly. She clenched her fists so tightly that her knuckles cracked.
"That bastard must be back! I never thought that he would be so bold to look for Tara!"
