Chapter 267
“Colonel... Larson!”
The Zimmer family was visibly shaken in the villa, staring at the military figure in disbelief,
Their bodies trembled as they realized Cameron had indeed called in a battalion from the Yrando Military Region led by none other than Harrison Larson. They were confused by how an outcast like Cameron would have such influence.
With a calm demeanor, Cameron addressed the Zimmer family, “Is it now time for you to vacate my mother's house?”
His voice was soft yet commanding.
Max shivered as he quickly agreed, “We'll move out... right away.”C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
He had no other choice with guns pointed at him.
Cameron wasn't finished. “Wait a moment,” he said, causing Max to inquire anxiously about his further demands.
"Who exactly was involved in the plot against my mother back then? Was the Xander family part of it?
“Cameron's voice was deliberate.
His eyes glinted with a fierce coldness.
“I... 1 don't know... I really don't know any of it...” Max's voice trembled in response.
“Is that so?" Cameron pressed on relentlessly with a sharp and penetrating gaze.
“Truly, Mr. Morgan. I wouldn't dare deceive you no matter what!” Max exclaimed with panic
"And why did you occupy my mother, Angela's, house? And why has the Zimmer family in Yrando become so closely associated with the Xander family in Leving?” Cameron continued his interrogation with an intense gaze.
*Max inwardly gasped. His voice quivered as he replied, “Mr. Morgan, our relationship with the Xander family stems from the Zimmer family’s significant influence in Yrando, which caught the Xander family's attention... It's understandable.”
He added, “As for the house, I acquired it from a mysterious individual at a high price many years ago!

Max insisted, “Mr. Morgan, your mother’s death truly had nothing to do with us!”
“Bought it?” Cameron's brows were furrowed as he looked at Max. “Can you contact this
person
now?
“No... I can't. I've never met that mysterious person. But rest assured, Mr. Morgan, give me two weeks and I'll definitely contact them for you!” Max pledged earnestly.
Cameron stated, “Three days. I'll give you three days at most. If I don’t meet this mysterious individual you mentioned in three days, then I assure you, everyone present will vanish from this world forever.”
He spoke slowly and reiterated his previous statement, leaving no one in doubt of its veracity. “Yes... Mr. Morgan,” Max stammered in agreement.
"Remember, don't try to be clever. No matter where you run, I can find you,” Cameron warned. “Colonel Larson, let's move out,” Cameron said before turning to leave.
"Yes, Mr. Morgan!” Harrison responded respectfully. Then, with a wave of his hand, he commanded, "Move out!”
At his command, the troops withdrew swiftly like a receding tide. Yet, even after their departure, the oppressive atmosphere lingered in the villa. It did not dissipate.
"What should we do now, sir?” the Zimmer family members asked fearfully.
"Yes, Dad... As you know, you were lying just now... If Cameron finds out, we might all be beheaded,” Duncan said, his face pale with fear.
The matter concerning Angela's death years ago and the significant implications behind it were too complex for even the Zimmers to comprehend fully.
One thing was certain, however. The Zimmer family had played a part back then. They had aimed to curry favor with the families in Leving and secure a foothold in Yrando.
They had thought the past had been buried with time. Little did they expect the “discarded” son of the Morgan family to return.
What truly unsettled them was Cameron's current status—a man capable of easily mobilizing an entire battalion from the Yrando Military Region. They knew his identity was far from simple.
