Chapter 40 Timothy had arrived! At that moment, everyone’s heart was in their throat. Timothy, wearing shiny leather shoes, a black suit, and sunglasses, appeared imposingly at the door of the private room. Behind him, dozens of men dressed in black suits stood respectfully. “It’s over!” Dakota’s head buzzed. Caspian immediately rushed to Timothy and bowed. “Boss!” “Mr. Dashner!” Caspian’s subordinates also bowed, expressions of reverence on their faces. Timothy gave a hum and nodded lightly. Then, he asked in a deep voice, “Who beat you?” “It’s him, Boss!” Caspian pointed at Cameron, who was sitting on the sofa. Timothy looked in the direction Caspian was pointing. At that moment, Dakota was standing in front of Cameron. Despite her fear, she bravely explained to Timothy, “Mr. Dashner, this has nothing to do with Cameron. Please let me explain.” “Oh?” Timothy frowned, displeased, Dakota’s face turned pale as she suppressed her fear and continued, “Mr. Dashner, here’s what happened. My friends and I were celebrating someone’s birthday here when your subordinate, Lord Caspian, barged in and caused a disturbance. He even attempted to ” Caspian interrupted, “Boss, please don’t listen to this woman’s nonsense. None of that actually happened! “We were just here to collect protection fees as usual. When we passed by this private room, this drunk woman came up to me and stuck herself to me. When her boyfriend saw it, he picked up a wine bottle and hit me on the head. “My head injury was caused by him. Look, Boss!” Caspian pointed at the wound on his head. “Indeed, Mr. Dashner, we can testify for Lord Caspian!” Caspian’s subordinates started to twist the truth as well. “Mr. Dashner, they’re all lying! Please don’t believe them. The situation wasn’t at all like they said!” Dakota pleaded, looking at her friends. “My friends can vouch for me. If you don’t believe me, ask them!” Chapter 40 2/2 “Her… Her boyfriend attacked Lord Casplan!” The frightened girls pointed at Cameron behind Dakota, saying, “It was him!” They didn’t dare to offend Casplan. Dakota was speechless. She didn’t expect her friends to betray her. “Boss, you’ve heard it all. It was this woman’s boyfriend causing trouble here. And now she’s trying to deceive you!” Caspian added. “Mr. Dashner, I really didn’t deceive you. This red mark on my face is from when Lord Caspian slapped me. Besides, Cameron isn’t even my boyfriend. This has nothing to do with him…” Dakota anxiously explained. “That’s enough. Stop talking,” Timothy interrupted impatiently. “I don’t care about what happened between you all, and I don’t care if he’s your boyfriend or not. I just want to know if my subordinate was injured by your friend.” “Yes Dakota answered, trembling. “But…” “I’ve heard enough,” Timothy said, his tone oppressive. “If he’s the one who did it, then he must pay the price.” He understood Caspian’s personality very well, and he most likely had caused this incident. But what did that matter? He couldn’t allow outsiders to discipline his subordinates. Caspian chuckled smugly. He knew Timothy would stand up for him! Dakota’s face turned pale. “Now get out of my way,” Timothy spoke again, his imposing aura causing Dakota to take a few steps back, falling into Cameron’s embrace. Cameron held Dakota’s delicate body. Then, he slowly stood up, his gaze arrogant as he looked at Timothy. Timothy snorted coldly as he turned his gaze toward Cameron. He wanted to see who had the audacity to harm his subordinate.
