Ex-husband Unmasked He’s a Billionaire?

Chapter 252

Cameron returned to Aquarine Residence. He took out the key Dakota had given him in advance and opened the door to apartment No. 302.

“Dakota, I'm back. I'll go to the kitchen to prepare the medicine for you. Wait for me in the room, Cameron said as he entered, carrying the medicinal ingredients into the kitchen.

"Okay, Cameron,” Dakota's gentle voice responded.

A smile appeared in Cameron's eyes as he took out a clay pot from under the kitchen cabinet, added the right amount of water, and then added the purchased ephedra, fragrant skullcap, poria, and hollyhock seeds each in the right proportions.

He then took out a black pill he always carried with him and added it to the mix.

After covering the pot, he brought the water to a boil over high heat before reducing it to a simmer. Half an hour later, as the medicine's aroma filled the kitchen, Cameron turned off the gas.

He poured the dark medicinal liquid from the pot into a small bowl, covered it with cling film, and placed it in the refrigerator to chill for half an hour.

Once the medicine had set into a paste, Cameron took the bowl out of the fridge. It might not look appealing, but it emitted a faint, refreshing fragrance. He carried the bowl and walked into the bedroom.

Dakota was lying on the bed and scrolling through her phone. When she saw Cameron enter, down her phone. Her eyes lit up with joy. “Cameron, what kind of medicine is this?”

“It's a secret recipe, haha. It should reduce swelling and disperse the bruising with just one application,” Cameron said with a laugh.

“It's that miraculous?” Dakota's eyes widened in surprise. “Is it a wound-healing ointment?”

“It's better than any wound-healing ointment on the market,” Cameron said with a gentle smile. Lean back. I'll apply it now. You might feel a bit of a cooling sensation.

"Okay!" Dakota smiled sweetly.

“Alright!” Dakota agreed with a smile.

Cameron moved to her side and carefully picked up a dab of the black ointment with his finger. Under Dakota's slightly shy gaze, he gently applied it to the swollen bruise on her cheek. The ointment spread evenly, bringing an instant cooling sensation across Dakota's face.

She felt as though her skin's pores had opened up, and the fiery sting that had been present on her face vanished in an instant.

The application brought an immediate cooling sensation. It was different from the sharp cool of mint. It felt like tiny ice crystals were seeping into her skin.

"What a magical feeling!” Dakota marveled,

Cameron smiled. “The bruising should vanish in about 15 minutes.”

“Wow, that soon?” Dakota was astonished.

“Yes.” Cameron continued the application, focusing on even coverage for better absorption. Dakota watched Cameron work, feeling a surge of happiness. Yet, her joy was short-lived when she noticed a strand of woman's hair on his shoulder. It was wavy, which was clearly not hers.

"Dakota, what's wrong?” Cameron noticed her change in expression.

Dakota bit her lip. Her tone clearly carried a hint of jealousy. “Cameron, the friend you met up with just now was a woman, wasn't she?”

Cameron was taken aback. “Huh? Why are you suddenly asking that?" he wondered.

Dakota pointed at his shoulder. “Because there's a strand of her hair on your shoulder,” she explained.

Cameron looked where Dakota pointed. He indeed saw a wavy strand of black hair on his shoulder. His gaze flickered involuntarily.

Dakota pressed further, “Cameron, was that friend perhaps Tara, Dr. Smith?”

She remembered Tara having such wavy hair. She pursed her lips even tighter as she waited for his response.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Chapter 251

Cameron's expression stiffened a bit. The hair must have come from Tara hugging his arm earlier. He couldn't believe Dakota managed to figure it out! He felt that women could rival Sherlock Holmes in uncovering infidelity

“Uh. Yes, it was Dr. Smith,” Cameron admitted. Since Dakota had already guessed it right, there was no point in hiding it. After all, there was nothing going on between him and Tara

Dakota's heart skipped a beat at his admission as her mind raced. She bit her lip hard and hesitated before asking, “Did you go to her place?”

“No, how could 17" Cameron hurried to clarify, noticing Dakota's misunderstanding. “I was at the pharmacy buying medicine when 1 bumped into her. I learned her grandfather was diagnosed with late stage liver cancer, and I happened to have a way to treat it, so I accompanied her to the hospital.”

“You went to the hospital?” Dakota was surprised.

It turned out her grandfather was misdiagnosed. He had liver toxicity and cirrhosis, not cancer, which is much easier to treat,” Cameron explained the situation to Dakota.

“Dr. Smith's grandfather has liver cancer?” Dakota's eyes flickered. She knew cancer was incurable! Het jealousy faded, and she asked with concern, “Then, can you cure it?”

“Yes.” Cameron nodded. “It was a misdiagnosis. The old man just has liver poisoning and cirrhosis. It's much easier to treat than cancer.”

“That's a relief.” Dakota sighed and then frowned. “What kind of irresponsible doctor makes such a grave misdiagnosis?”

“Exactly.” Cameron couldnt help but scoff. That Mikel was such an asshole!

“But it's good that it's nothing serious in the end.” Dakota's brows smoothed out.

"Are you not angry anymore?” Cameron looked at Dakota with a smile.

"Hmph, I'm not that petty!” Dakota huffed as she scrunched her nose. “Besides, if you really like Dr.

Smith, I won't mind....

Dakota clearly didn't want to say this. Yet, considering how outstanding Cameron was, she felt that keeping him to herself seemed unfair...

“Really?” Cameron raised an eyebrow.

“Yes.” Dakota nodded, biting her lip.

Cameron saw the struggle in her eyes, and his gaze softened. “Silly girl, I was just joking. There's really nothing going on between me and Dr. Smith.”

“Look, the ointment on your face is almost dry. Let me even it out for you.” Cameron reached out to

Rently smooth the ointment on Dakota's face,

Dakota looked at Cameron with her moistening eyes, She felt incredibly secure at that moment. 2/2

Suddenly, the sound of the door opening came from the living room. A gentle female voice said, ” Dakota, you're back? And Cameron, you're here too?”

Seeing a pair of men’s shoes at the entrance, Jane realized Cameron was there and headed toward the living room. Dakota's room was the first door from the living room, and the door was open. Jane looked in to greet them but paused upon seeing their intimate gestures. A meaningful smile appeared on her face, “Sorry to interrupt. Please carry on...” She quickly closed the door. Cameron's face stiffened. He wondered if Jane had misunderstood them.

Dakota's cheels flared with heat. She felt that Jane really shouldn't say such things in front of Cameron... She looked up at Cameron, who was also looking at her, and her face grew even hotter.
