Chapter 100
“Hastard, you are very capable, right? Bring it on. Let's see what you've got. I'll
give you the upper hand by using one hand only!”
Full of rage, Lena challenged Cameron to a fight.
Cameron looked at this short-tempered woman. He stated nonchalantly,
“Colonel Bailey, you should know better than me how dangerous it is to spar in
such a place.”
One statement had left Lena dumbfounded.
Indeed, a conflict in such a place would only give the assailants opportunities,
If someone else made this statement, it would sound reasonable. But from
Cameron's mouth, it only
irritated her.
He was such a wimp and loved to put up acts!
Lena glared at Cameron with hatred.
“Colonel Bailey, I can vouch for him. He has nothing to do with these people.”
Noticing Lena's deepening misunderstanding, Laura stood up for him.
Lena was taken aback. Lena did not expect that Ms. Jones, known as the “Ice
Queen*, would speak up
for a man.
It seemed Laura was not as icy toward the opposite sex as rumored.
Lena smiled, but deep down she felt a hint of disdain. “My apologies, Ms. Jones.
I'm just doing my job.
Today, she wouldn't let Cameron off easily!
Seemingly unsatisfied, Lena added on, “Ms. Jones, I'm just giving you a friendly
reminder. Don't let anyone with ulterior motives deceive you and cloud your
judgment. You'll be serving as a witness in favor of the criminal.”
“Colonel Bailey, Thank you for the kind reminder. But I don't think I would
misjudge someone,” Laura responded confidently.
She would not allow anyone to speak ill of Cameron.
“Since Ms. Jones is so confident, so let's pretend I didn’t say anything,” Lena
smiled faintly.
“Colonel Bailey, can Cameron leave now?” Laura smiled back.
Although the conversation seemed casual, the two women were secretly
competing with each other.
Because they were both very proud and strong-willed individuals.
Laura would not allow anyone to say anything bad about Cameron.

On the other hand, Lena believed in her judgment.
While the two women were secretly competing, the man who had been knocked
unconscious by Lena's hand chop twitched his right index finger.
Unaware of this, Lena remained smiling. “I'm sorry, Ms. Jones, he can’t leave
until he's cleared of suspicion.”
Laura frowned.
Just as she was about to speak, Cameron intervened. “Ms. Jones, you don’t
have to worry about me. You should go back to the car. Quickly have someone
from the Jones family to pick you up.”
Though his tone was cold, Laura knew Cameron was worried about her safety.
It was indeed unsafe to stand outside and the target clear in sight.
“Okay,” Laura said softly, her expression softening. Following Cameron's advice,
she returned to the car and dialed Otis“ number.
Seeing how easily Cameron persuaded Laura with a few words, Lena couldn't
help but feel a jolt. What was the relationship between Cameron and Laura?
“Are you Laura's bodyguard?” Lena asked.
“No,” Cameron replied.
“Then what is your relationship?”
“Not related at all.”
“Nothing to do with her? Do you think I'll believe you?”
“It's up to you whether to believe or not.”
“You!” Instantly, Lena was furious and was about to lash out again.
Suddenly, she felt a chill running down her spine!
Lena instinctively turned her head.
The next second, her eyes narrowed.
