Chapter 234 Even More Curious


    Amelia froze. She hadn''t expected Xander to say that at all, and her expression stiffened slightly as she frowned. "Xander, you know that''s nonsense."


    Cameron just gave Amelia a cool nod and walked into the cafeteria, while Xander left it at that and followed right behind her. As Amelia watched Cameron''s slender figure disappear inside, she shook her head. She wasn''t the type to be fickle, and Cameron really wasn''t her type.


    Seeing Amelia watching Cameron, Skyler pouted. "Amy, don''t tell me you''re actually regretting it. Come on, Cameron isn''t even good enough to carry your shoes."


    Amelia frowned. “Did you forget what Bradley told you yesterday?"


    That managed to shut Skyler up.


    By noon, as soon as school let out, Cameron slipped out quietly.


    Elijah watched her hurry off, frowning a little in concern as he thought, ''Did something happen to Cameron?


    He pulled out his phone and sent her a message on WhatsApp. [Cameron, if you need any help, just let me know]


    Cameron saw the message while scanning the code for her e-bike. She was a little puzzled, but still replied: [Thanks, I''m good for now.]


    With that, she hopped on the e-bike and rode off.


    Elijah grabbed a quick lunch at the cafeteria and headed back to the dorm. When he got there, only Austin was in therge


    room.


    Austin hadn''t eaten yet, as he''d been waiting for Cameron. But instead, Elijah walked through the door. Austin looked up at him and asked, "Eli, Cam''s not with you?"


    Elijah replied coolly, "He went home."


    Austin looked surprised, asking amidst his cough, "Home? Didn''t he just go homest night?"


    Elijah shrugged. "No idea."


    A sly smile crept across Austin''s lips. He thought, ''Something''s definitely up. Cameron''s way better at hiding things than I thought. He must have a ton of secrets.


    ''The more mysterious he is, the more interested I get. I really want to know what Cameron''s hiding.''


    Just then, Xander barged into the dorm right behind Elijah, not even bothering to knock as if this was still his room. ncing around, he asked, "Hey, where''s that little punk? Did he hit the library?"


    Normally, after lunch, Xander would be off with the basketball team. But now that the game against Horizon Academy was over, daily practice was on pause. So, he thought about Cameron.


    Austin said, coughing, "Xan, you looking for Cam? He went home."


    "Home? Yeah, right." Xander frowned. "He told me he went home yesterday, but his sister said he never showed up."


    A spark lit up in Austin''s eyes. "No way. You think Cam lied to us?"


    Elijah said, deadpan, "You guys seriously didn''t know Cameron already moved out of his family''s ce?"


    Xander looked a bit surprised. "He moved out? When? So where''s he living now?"


    Everything added up now, and Xander thought, ''No wonder I couldn''t find him yesterday. Turns out I was wrong about his situation.''


    Elijah shook his head. "No idea."


    Austin rubbed his chin, looking thoughtful. ''He moved out? He''s got more guts than me. I''m still pretending to be the good kid, and Cameron''s already gone head-to-head with his family? That''s mad.''


    Xander shot Elijah a re. "If you don''t know, why bring it un in the first ce?"


    Elijah didn''t answer. He was about to mention telling him anymore.


    Sessfully unlocked!


    y, but with Xander''s attitude, he didn''t feel like


    Instead, he said coldly, "Xander, I remember you already moved out of our room. Isn''t it weird for you to keep dropping by?"
