When Jordan Smith heard the news, he immediately went online to check out the situation for himself.
Honestly, if both sides kept going at each other like this, it wouldn’t end well for anyone.
And Walter Wilson? He wasn’t messing around. The guy was ruthless—he didn’t just clear Eric Morris’s name; he dragged him right into the mess, as if he was trying to shift the blame elsewhere.
Jordan’s expression turned sour as he kept reading.
He couldn’t help but wonder—was this all Camila Davis’s idea, or was it Walter’s?
Huh. Looks like Camila Davis had really leveled up. He’d seriously underestimated her before. Who would’ve thought she could get so many men wrapped around her finger, lining up to fight her battles?
Jordan felt a wave of irritation for no real reason. It simmered inside him, making him restless and annoyed.
Meanwhile, Camila Davis had no idea that Jordan was, once again, busy gossiping about her online.
She’d seen Walter’s aggressive move, but she didn’t say anything about it. After all, the Smith Group had been shady from the start, dragging her name through the mud more than once. She didn’t see any reason to play nice anymore.
Sarah Brown was sitting on the couch with her iPad, scrolling through the comment sections and giving little fist pumps of victory.
“That’s my guy! Walter Wilson’s counterattack was perfect! Absolutely flawless!” she cheered.
Lately, Camila had been staying over at Misty Vale Villa to help take care of her mentor, and she’d brought Lillian along. That left Sarah Brown alone at her own place, bored out of her mind. So, since it was the weekend, she’d decided to swing by, check in on Mr. Morris, and spend some time with her goddaughter.
Now the two women were sitting on a porch swing in the garden, talking about the drama online. Sarah felt seriously vindicated.
Camila couldn’t help but agree.
“What?” Sarah’s jaw dropped. “When did that happen? Why so suddenly?!”
She looked so disappointed, like her favorite TV couple had just broken up.
Camila couldn’t help but laugh. “It was a couple of days ago. I think something happened—some kind of trouble came up.”
Thinking back, she remembered Dennis Williams had texted her the night he left, saying he was out of danger. With everything going on with her mentor, she’d been too distracted to ask much more, though they still messaged each other when they could.
Camila could tell Dennis was insanely busy… but she had no idea what with.
That thought left her with a weird ache she couldn’t quite describe.
When Dennis was still around, she hadn’t noticed it as much. But now that he was gone, it felt like they were living in completely different worlds—and she suddenly realized just how far apart they really were.
