?Chapter 1023: Chapter 1023: Yale Shaw’s Threat 2   Chapter 1023: Chapter 1023: Yale Shaw’s Threat 2                                   Looking at the familiar name, he steered the wheel while putting on his Bluetooth headset.


    “Hello?”


    At this time, Cam Walker stood at the front door of her home, remembering that he would being to pick her up in a little while, which made her chest ache, and her expression turned somewhat gloomy.


    “yton Howard.”


    “Hmm?”


    “I…” Heaven knows how much she had been looking forward to tonight’s date, and yet, it was she who had to cancel it…


    She hesitated, her tone somewhat somber and defeated, “I can’t join you for dinner tonight…”


    Upon hearing this, yton Howard abruptly pressed on the brakes and then pulled the car over to the side, frowning as he asked, “What happened?”


    Could she tell him that she was going to meet Yale Shaw tonight?


    No!


    So, even if she didn’t want to hide anything from him, she still had to conceal everything!


    Just make it through tonight, and all the problems could be dealt with, at most, she would sacrifice a lifetime…


    “My, my father suddenly felt a bit unwell, so I can’t join you for dinner.” She blurted out a lie.


    Her father’s health indeed wasn’t good, which made this excuse believable enough to deceive him and make him trust her words.


    At his words, yton Howard’s brows furrowed slightly. Naturally, he knew that Baxter Walker’s health had not been good since hisst illness.


    “Then I’lle to see him, since I’m almost—”


    “No need!”


    He was about to say that he was almost at her home gate when she abruptly interrupted him, leaving him somewhat puzzled.


    Realizing that she had sounded too eagerly defensive, Cam Walker paused for a moment and then exined, “No need, I, I am at the hospital with him now. He’s not in serious trouble, and we can go home after this intravenous drip.”


    She naturally couldn’t let hime to her home, nor could she let him go to the hospital.


    “Really?” He asked uncertainly, feeling that something was off with her tonight. Was it because her father suddenly felt unwell, or had she encountered something else?


    Remembering their argumentst night, yton Howard’s frown deepened; he didn’t want his suspicions to grow. This woman, he trusted that she loved him.<fn8e0d> This text is hosted at f?ndnovel</fn8e0d>


    After cooling downst night, he still chose to trust her.


    Cam Walker nodded, “Yes! I’ll join you for a meal tomorrow.”


    After hesitating for a moment, he could only helplessly nod in agreement, “Alright, then take care of yourself.”


    “Okay.”


    After hanging up the phone, although Cam Walker seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, she felt an unnamed sense of oppression in her heart.


    Now, she just hoped that yton Howard wouldn’t find out about everything tonight, nor about her meeting with Yale Shaw.


    Getting into her car, Cam Walker drove her red Maserati away from the grand entrance of her residence.


    At this time, she gripped the steering wheel, her peripheral vision asionally ncing at the handbag on the passenger seat where she had prepared a dagger, naturally not noticing that at the corner spot inside the upscale residential area, yton Howard was about to make a U-turn to leave…


    Because cars were passing by, yton Howard paused his maneuver to wait for them to pass before turning around, but then he saw the familiar car body belonging to…


    Cam?


    His eyebrows knit tightly. Had he not clearly seen her in the driver’s seat, he might have thought it was just another Maserati of the same model as hers.


    Watching the familiar car disappear at the corner, yton Howard’s heart sank to the bottom in that moment.


    Wasn’t she supposed to be at the hospital with her father? Why was she…
