NovelEnglishDakota's body tensed slightly. It was a reaction Cameron had anticipated.
He gently reassured her, "Silly girl, don't worry. I won't go looking for Laura anymore." Their relationship had ended a long tago. After the night Laura had spoken those words, everything between them had irrevocably concluded.
"I didn't mean to imply..." she hesitated, looking uncertain, "Cameron, do you think I'm being petty?" "Of course not!" Cameron instantly replied, "Dakota, you've been incredibly understanding. If you were any more lenient, I'd be worried about maintaining my status as your boyfriend." Dakota's eyes flickered with emotion. She pressed her lips together slightly and murmured, "Thank you, Cameron." "What are you thankingfor?" he asked as he was taken aback.
"For understanding me," she said with a radiant smile.
"Silly girl." Cameron felt a wave of affection wash over him. "I should be the one thanking you for your tolerance and understanding. Actually, you're probably worried that mentioning Laura might upset me, right?" Indeed, he had always understood the nuances of Dakota's feelings.
"Yes." she nodded softly.
"Rest assured, it won't," he comforted.

Their gazes met each other, and there was a feeling of understanding between them as they smiled at each other.
"Alright, let's try to sleep now. Staying up late is unhealthy for you," Cameron said affectionately.
"Okay," Dakota agreed obediently.
Cameron turned off the light, and the room was enveloped in darkness.
As Dakota lay down in bed, she said softly, "Actually, what I'm really worried about isn't so much you meeting Laura but that you might run into Alan." "Silly girl, I know." Cameron's voice was low and reassuring. "Don't worry, nothing's going to happen." "Alright," Dakota responded softly.
"Goodnight," he whispered.
"Goodnight." Cameron bid farewell to Leonard, Jane, and Dakota the next morning after breakfast. He arrived at Yrando's General Hospital and went straight to Room 206.
Tara was already waiting at the door. Seeing Cameron, she waved excitedly. "Cameron, over here!" "Dr. Smith," Cameron greeted her with a slight smile as he approached.
Inside the room, Dylan was basking in the sunlight by the window. He smiled warmly at Cameron's arrival. "The miracle doctor, long tno see." "Mr. Smith, you're looking even better these days," Cameron remarked as he noticed the healthy glow on Dylan's face. "This is all thanks to you, young man," Dylan chuckled heartily.
"You're givingtoo much credit," Cameron smiled modestly, then turned to Lena, who stood gracefully by the window. Her hair was pulled back into a neat ponytail, and she looked radiant in the sunlight.
"Lena, good to see you," Cameron greeted her.
"Hello," Lena responded with a nod.
"Lena, Dr. Smith mentioned you needed to talk to me. What's up?" Cameron inquired seriously.
"What? When did I say that?" Lena looked surprised.
"Oh?" Cameron was equally taken aback. "Wasn't it you who had Dr. Smith relay the message last night?" "No, not at all," Lena clarified, indicating she had no such conversation.

S Realizing he might have been misled by Tara, Cameron turned to her with raised eyebrows. His expression conveyed clear skepticism.
Tara was caught off guard by how quickly her ruse had unraveled. She et nervously giggled and looked to Lena for help. Lena knew why Tara had summoned Cameron and decided to take this opportunity to speak her mind. With a sigh, Lena seriously said to Cameron, "Actually, I have something to tell you. I was hesitant before, but since you're hered think it's best I speak up." "What is it?" Cameron asked, intrigued by her seriousness.
"It's nothing major. By the way, have you been near Global Plaza downtown recently?" Lena asked.
It was somewhat off-topic.
"The one in the city center?" Cameron clarified.
"Yes." "No, why?" "You might want to avoid that area for a while." "Why?" Cameron looked puzzled.
"Just truston this," Lena advised.
Her expression was unreadable.
She couldn't elaborate further as she was worried about the potential impact the truth could have on him.
