Initially, she had thought that Laura had call the way to Yrando to personally invite Cameron to her wedding. But the result was much different.
Given their past relationship, this shouldn't have been the case.
"Why?" Dakota asked, puzzled.
"She probably thinks my presence will embarrass her," Cameron said with a hint of self-mockery.
"I see... I'm sorry..." Dakota trembled with guilt as she looked at Cameron.
Bringing up this matter was undoubtedly rubbing salt into his wound.
"It's okay. I don't care anymore," Cameron said with a dismissive smile.
"Are you really not upset?" Dakota asked with concern.

"I'm fine." Cameron looked up at the ceiling of the bedroom.
If it weren't for the incident with the Zimmer family, he wouldn't have planned to attend Laura's wedding. Marrying Alan was Laura's choice for happiness after careful consideration.
Back then, at the end of the grand ceremony, Laura had already given him her answer. He had chosen to respect it.
However, after what had happened to the Zimmer family, Cameron realized that his mother's death was somehow connected to the Xander family.
If his future investigations revealed the Xanders involvement, he would definitely crush them to avenge his mother.
He didn't want Laura to be widowed because of this, let alone marry into such a politically astute family.
If she did, her future would be filled with endless pain and restrictions. She might even bectrapped in the consequences of the Xanders' actions.
But what surprised him were Laura's words.
At that moment, he truly felt an unprecedented coldness from her, like she was a stranger.
Their past affection seemed to have completely vanished at that moment.
If Laura felt he wasn't worthy, then he wouldn't disturb her life anymore.
As for the Xander family, he had already spoken to Laura about it.
He would go.
By then, no one could stop him.
Dakota looked at Cameron's somber expression. Her eyes filled with concern. "Cameron, are you really okay? If you're upset, you can tell me. It's okay." "Silly, I'm really fine." Cameron's gaze softened as he ruffled Dakota's hair.
"Really?" Dakota still seemed unconvinced.
"Yes," Cameron replied without hesitation.
"Are you really not upset inside?" "Upset?" Cameron's eyes flickered.

He took a deep breath and said, "It would be a lie if I say I'm not upset at I say! alt but..Nt's just a temporary feeling." He had already let go of Laura and their past relationship.
He was going to leave it up to tto help him forget about it all.
"Alright, Dakota. It's getting late. Get srest. You still need to recover from your injury, Cameron said after En. taking a deep breath. "Okay..." Noticing that Cameron didn't want to talk about it any further, Dakota didn't want to push the matter.
After a simple wash-up, the two got into bed.
In the dark bedroom, Cameron had no desire to sleep.
His mind kept drifting back to Laura and her cold indifference.
At the stime, he couldn't understand why Laura had sent Phoenix over to help him.
Perhaps, as Laura had said before, she didn't like owing favors to others.
He had saved her twice, so she helped him twice.
Cameron couldn't sleep.
Dakota lay beside him, unable to sleep too.
Meanwhile, far away in Leving, Laura and Peggy were also awake. They both had their own thoughts and couldn't get any rest.
