Ex-husband Unmasked He’s a Billionaire?

Chapter 5

Chapter 5 “| have the money you need, Mr. Morgan!” Bobby Kane cried, running over to Cameron.

“You must be Mr. Kane,” Cameron said gently.

“You can just call me Bob, sir!” Bobby wiped away the sweat on his brow. He looked panicked. “Why didn’t you inform me before your arrival, Mr. Morgan? | deeply apologize for making you wait so long out here!”

The man before Bobby was his big boss Lord Blackheart’s superior! One word from him could decide Bobby's fate! “You don’t need to be worried, Mr. Kane. Plus, you weren't late. | was the one who arrived early,” Cameron said with a smile.

Bobby was touched. He’d thought Cameron would be a cruel, cold-blooded man. Who knew he was actually so courteous and humble!

“Thank you, Mr. Morgan!” Bobby said gratefully. “Here is the one million dollars you needed, sir!”

“You can take it back. | don’t need it anymore.” Cameron shook his head. “I apologize for making you come all this way for nothing.”

“Not at all, sir!” Bobby said fearfully. “Did something happen earlier, Mr. Morgan?” “Nothing much. Just a little interruption. By the way, do you know who Archie Price is?”

“Archie Price?” Bobby asked, then nodded. “Oh, you mean him. He’s the eldest son of the Price family, one of the four strongest families here in Yrando. His father Magnus Price works with our company on some projects.

“He Just came by earlier on behalf of his father to discuss a joint venture for a project in the city. He offered 30 percent of the profits to us. Do you know him, Mr. Morgan?”

Cameron shook his head. “No, | was just asking.”

But Bobby thought differently. Bobby was naturally no ordinary man, being able to attain Blackheart’s approval and become CEO. of Darth Holdings.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Bobby immediately understood the underlying meaning in Cameron’s words.

Bobby then said lightly, “I don’t think the Price family is genuine regarding the joint venture. Why don’t we leave this business opportunity to someone else?”

“Yes.” Cameron nodded.

Bobby secretly sighed in relief. Looks like he was right.

He then said respectfully, “Why don’t | take you on a tour around the company, Mr. Morgan?” “Maybe next time, Mr. Kane. | have some urgent matters to tend to right now,” Cameron said.

All Cameron could think about was the hair bow. Based on what Madison said earlier, the hair bow probably belonged to one of her best friends.

“Alright, Mr. Morgan. Do contact me whenever you’re free. Here’s my card!” Bobby handed Cameron his name card. Cameron accepted it with a smile. “Okay, Mr. Kane. You'll be further needed to help manage the company from now on.”

“It is my honor to serve the company, Mr. Morgan,” Bobby said earnestly. To prove his determination, he added, “I'll have my driver escort you wherever you wish to go later, sir!”

“That won't be necessary. I’ll head there on my own.”

“Alright, sir.”

Cameron turned away, about to leave.

Just then, a young woman in an off-white dress walked into the front entrance.

She had long hair and looked to be in her late twenties. She hurried inside, nearly bumping right into Cameron. “I'm so sorry!” She apologized to him.

Cameron gazed at her, finding her strangely familiar. However, they had never met one another prior to this.

The woman didn’t have the energy to mind anything else. After apologizing to Cameron, she turned to the elevator. Just then, she spotted Bobby standing beside Cameron. Surprise flitted across her eyes. “What a coincidence, Mr. Kane!” She had come here just to meet Bobby Kane!

“Good afternoon, Ms. Dakota,” Bobby greeted politely with a smile.

Dakota Jennings then handed him the proposal she brought. “This is my family’s proposal for your company’s project in the city, Mr. Kane. Please take a look.”

Dakota was feeling nervous because this was the last hope her family had of saving itself!

The Jennings family was old blood in Yrando. Even though they were no match for the wealthiest families, they were still of some standing.

But in recent months they had accrued a large debt due to the gambling addiction of Dakota’s grandfather. Her father’s business failure only added to her family’s troubles.

If it weren’t for the Jennings family’s reputation, they would’ve long gone bankrupt.

Now that they wanted to make a comeback, all their hopes were placed on the partnership with Darth Holdings. They wanted to rely on Darth Holdings’ reputation in Yrando!

Because of this, Dakota had amended countless proposals for the project. She was confident in her proposal writing skills. But after taking Dakota's proposal, Bobby merely skimmed through it before closing it back up. Dakota’s brows furrowed. She asked nervously, “Is there something wrong with the proposal, Mr. Kane?”

“To be honest with you, Ms. Dakota, this company has always chosen to work with reputable businesses. As far as I’m concerned, your family is currently facing a financial crisis...” Bobby went straight to the point. He didn’t want to waste any time.

Bobby had long known about the Jennings family situation. There was no way Darth Holdings would work with them. Bobby’s words quelled Dakota's hope. But she still didn’t give up because this was her family’s last chance. Dakota balled her hands into fists and said fervently, “Mr. Kane, if you're concerned about my family’s financial issues, then | can

promise you we won't let you down! And if you accept this proposal, | can split your company 50 to 60 percent of the profits, on behalf of my family.”

“The Jennings family? Dakota Jennings?” Cameron’s thought to himself as his eyes glinted.

Only then did he realize the woman standing before him was the daughter of the Jennings family from Yrando, as well as Madison's best friend.

Though Cameron had never seen Dakota in person, he’d heard of her from Madison before. Coupled with how Cameron felt Dakota was strangely familiar at first sight earlier, could that mean Dakota was the girl from...

“I'm sorry, Ms. Dakota. | appreciate your proposal but | really cannot help you here,” Bobby said, interrupting Cameron’s thoughts.

“Please put your faith in me this once, Mr. Kane!” Dakota begged. She couldn't lose this business deal. “| truly am sorry, Ms. Dakota.” Bobby shook his head.

“Mr. Kane, I...” Dakota wanted to insist once more on a chance, but when she saw the impatience in Bobby’s eyes, she knew he would only find her more irritating if she continued.

So Dakota had no choice but to give up. She said dejectedly, “I understand, Mr. Kane. | apologize for wasting your time.” Dakota turned around, preparing to leave.

Just then, Cameron suddenly spoke up, “Mr. Kane, | think Ms. Dakota is a decent and genuine young woman. Why don’t you consider her proposal?”

Dakota was stunned. She turned around to look at Cameron, feeling deeply grateful.

But she knew there was no one in Yrando that could sway Bobby Kane’s decision...
