CHAPTER 761. PRINCESS BY DAY. Anything you'd like to tell me?Cameron gritted his teeth, because for a few seconds, he sometimes felt like he couldn't breathe. The fact that they had released his hands from behind his back was a big improvement, but it didn't change the fact that a shot from less than four meters with a nine-millimeter handgun, slammed against a bulletproof vest, hurt like hell.Unfortunately, he already knew the protocol. His hands were handcuffed to a small metal bar on the interrogation room table, and he simply closed his eyes and leaned forward, trying to find the position that hurt the least because he knew he'd have to wait a long time here."Mr. Lake, I understand you've just been involved in a shooting," said Hover, one of the police officers assigned to interrogate him."And you think I'm guilty," Cameron sighed."What makes you think that?" the officer asked. "We just want you to tell us what happened, just as a witness."Cameron looked at him almost with a

CHAPTER 763. PRINCESS BY DAY. A Retinue of HelpersOf course, it was a huge affront, the biggest one that could be made to a detective who was interrogating someone he believed to be guilty in an interrogation room, and of course, Hover wanted to do anything in the world except apologize! But on one hand, he had the stern gaze of his captain, ahead of him was the furious expression of the government advisor, and to top it off, there was the utterly dramatic face of a primary school teacher."Hey, I was just doing my job! And my job is to interrogate suspects and make them fall under the full weight of the law!""Well, with three previously identified suspects, don’t you think you wasted a lot of time interrogating the only one who defended those kids?" Dandara replied without hesitation, and Detective Hover’s eyes went wide."And may I ask, who are you, miss?""Of course, Dandara Hopkins!" she answered, and the detective put a hand to his chest as if he were about to have a heart atta

CHAPTER 765. PRINCESS BY DAY. The Closest RelativeLess than two minutes had passed when Chiara Keller walked through the door of the small house and helped her daughter get out from under the massive weight that was Cameron Lake; and less than five until the paramedics arrived in a hurry. They turned him as best they could because he was truly a big man, and they put him on a stretcher to take him to the nearest hospital.From the doorway, John and Billy exchanged terrified glances, and Dandara raised an accusatory finger at them."You two and I are going to have a talk when I get back!" she growled, climbing into the ambulance herself, and tried to stay calm while holding Cameron’s hand.Dandara considered herself a well-prepared person, but unfortunately, medicine wasn’t her thing, and the more she listened to the paramedics talk or give orders, the more she realized something had to be wrong.Words like "decompression" and "low signs" set off alarm bells in her mind, and by the ti

CHAPTER 767. PRINCESS BY DAY. A Moan of SatisfactionAt any other time, Cameron Lake would have enjoyed the chance to be sexy, flirty, and shameless. But if he was being honest, he had to admit that his broken rib hurt like hell, and all he really wanted was to be put to sleep for two weeks and forget the world until the pain passed.So, objectively speaking, the only part of the highly qualified, curvy nurse that he looked at with absolute desire was the syringe in her hand. He didn’t notice her, didn’t hear her talk or laugh, didn’t care that she helped him dress or undress, or that she adjusted the pillows behind his head. The discomfort he felt was so overwhelming that all he really wanted was to be left alone so he could let out three or four curse words in peace.Therefore, since he wasn’t giving anyone any reason to be jealous, that meant the "other" movie was only playing in the minds of "other" people. But even that didn’t stop Dandara from getting goosebumps on the back of h

CHAPTER 769. PRINCESS BY DAY. I’ll Handle ItCameron closed his eyes for a moment as he stared at the hospital bill. In front of him, his friend huffed in frustration, watching Mr. Lake walk away as if he had just handed over a three-franc receipt. And beside him, Dandara was sharp enough not to interfere in the conversation or ask anything inappropriate in a public place.Unfortunately, Noel didn’t seem to be as perceptive, because the moment Cameron’s father disappeared, he stepped closer."What are you going to do?" he murmured, and Dandara saw how her bodyguard clenched his jaw. "You do know this isn’t your responsibility, right? Are you ever going to accept that?""Janick is my brother," Cameron growled in response. "My little brother...""And he’s also their son! They should be taking care of him instead of piling debts on you and telling you, ‘Figure it out yourself!’" Noel snapped in frustration."What does it matter what they do or say? I’m not doing this for them! I’m doing
