Bradley smiled at her faintly. “Cam, you’re being too harsh, don’t you think?”
Cameron shot back. “Are you serious, Bradley? You locked me up against my will, and you still expect me to be nice to you? Don’t be ridiculous.”
Bradley’s face darkened, his expression tightening.
Cameron shot him a glare..
She really wanted to go back to her room, but she held herself back.
Even with Bradley following her, Cameron still walked around the entire castle.
The more she observed the entire layout, the more her b
The castle’s walls were about 10 feet high.
Even so, they wouldn’t be enough to keep Cameron in.
But the top was crisscrossed with a web of electric wires.
That was a real headache.
To shut it down, she’d have to find the castle’s main power switch.
Cameron remained solemn. Once she had a plan, she turned and headed back to her room.
“Cameron! Are you in there? Cameron!”
Suddenly, she heard someone calling out to her.
“Elijah!” Cameron instantly recognized Elijah’s voice.
Cameron dashed straight for the courtyard, and just as she expected, she immediately caught sight of Elijah standing outside the main gate.
Her eyes narrowed in alarm, and she yelled, “Elijah, get back! The gate’s electrified. Move away, now!”
Elijah was shocked.
At her warning, he instinctively stepped back.
Only then did Cameron finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Bradley didn’t miss a single change in Cameron’s expression.
Just a moment ago, no matter what he said, Cameron either talked back harshly or just ignored him.
But now, she was actually worried about Elijah.
‘How dare she care about him!’ Bradley fumed inwardly.
His face instantly darkened.
“Cam, I really don’t like seeing you get all worked up over another man,” Bradley said, still wearing that sante gentle smile.
But Cameron ignored him completely.
She headed straight for the gate. “Elijah, why are you here?”
Elijah answered honestly, “I messaged you last night, but you didn’t reply. I was worried about you. Cameron, are you alright?”
“Elijah, seriously? What kind of question is that? Cam’s fine,” Bradley cut in before she could answer.
Cameron shot him a frosty glare and said, “Elijah, Bradley is no longer the man we know. You need to get out of here, now.”
Elijah refused to leave. “I know, Cameron. That’s minute.” why
I was freaking out trying to find you. Don’t worry, I already called the cops. They’ll be here any
“You called the police?” Cameron couldn’t help but smile.
‘Finally, I’m getting out of here soon,’ she thought to herself.
“Yeah, don’t worry. Everything’s gonna be fine,” Elijah said, giving a firm, reassuring nod.
At those words, Bradley’s eyes grew cold for a moment, but then the corners of his lips curled up in an almost imperceptible smile.
“You called the cops? Elijah, what are you up to?” he asked.
Elijah shot back, “Bradley, drop the act. You’re keeping Cameron here against her will. That’s illegal, and you’re going to have to answer for it.”
Bradley let out a cold, mocking laugh.
He strolled over to the gate. “Elijah, care to come in and join us?”
As he spoke, Bradley reached out and pulled open the gilded gate.
The gate swung open, and Bradley stood there, not a scratch on him.
Cameron was stunned.
“What the hell is going on?’ she wondered. ‘Wasn’t the gate supposed to be electrified?’
Elijah glanced at Cameron, just as lost as she was.
Bradley pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, his tone casual. “Elija”you coming in?”
Without missing a beat, Elijah strode forward, seized Cameron by the wrist, and pulled her straight out of the gate.
Then, he immediately stepped in front of her, shielding her from Bradley.
Elijah shot Bradley a look: “Bradley, if you really like Cameron, then let’s play fair. Stop playing your dirty tricks. You’re better than this.”
“Fair? Huh…” Bradley sneered.
His eyes lingered on Elijah’s hand-the one that had just pulled Cameron away.
“Elijah, let’s just get out of here,” Cameron said, her voice calm.
“Cameron, we can’t leave now! The police are almost here. We have to make sure Bradley pays for this!” Elijah protested, anger flashing in his eyes.
“No, let’s go,” Cameron insisted, shaking her head firmly.
‘What price could he possibly pay?’ she thought with a sigh.
Cameron wasn’t injured; there wasn’t even a scratch on her.
Besides, Bradley had never mistreated her, giving her everything she needed.
Now, even the electric current on the gate had mysteriously vanished.
They had no evidence at all.
For all they knew, the cops might just think it was some kind of love triangle and write it off as just some messy relationship drama between three people.
Elijah glanced at Bradley, then back at Cameron.
Even though he had no idea what was going through Cameron’s mind, he still chose to do as she said.
“My car’s over there. Come on,” Elijah said..
Cameron and Elijah were just about to leave when Bradley called out from behind them.
“Cameron, remember: if I can’t have you, nobody else could. Otherwise, you’ll both regret it,” he said, his voice icy and full of threat.
Cameron paused and looked back.
Bradley was standing there, his glasses off.
“Cameron, he’s getting way too cocky. We shouldn’t leave. Let’s wait for the police and let them teach him a lesson,” Elijah said, frustration clear in his voice.
Cameron finally tore her gaze away from Bradley.
But then, she insisted, “Let’s go.”
In the end, Elijah went with what Cameron wanted.
The two of them got back into the Rolls-Royce.
“Cameron, are you really alright?” Elijah asked, feeling concerned.
