"Mr. Morgan?" Everyone was dumbstruck. Zack, in particular, turned pale with shock. His eyes darted between Harrison and the others. The fact that a Colonel from the Yrando Military Region was addressing Cameron as Mr. Morgan was astounding! Ignoring the astonishment of those around him, Harrison just smiled warmly at Cameron. "Mr. Morgan, are you dining here as well?" "Yes, Colonel Larson, what a coincidence," Cameron replied with a smile.
"You... Do you know each other?" Leonard and Jane asked after recovering from their shock.
If the arrival of Lex had already shocked them, this was nothing short of astounding. Harrison represented military authority, a power that could crush any ministerial level! Even the city's Commissioner respected him! Yet here he was, greeting Cameron with respect! "You can say that Colonel Larson and I are old comrades-in-arms," Cameron explained while looking at the stunned Leonard and Jane.
"Comrades? You were in the military?" Leonard asked intently.

"That makes sense!" The Jennings couple nodded while still in shock deep down.
They now understood that Cameron had once held a rank higher than a colonel at his young age.
"Good to see you, Mr. and Mrs. Jennings. I'm Cameron's comrade, Harrison," Harrison promptly greeted them.
"Hello!" Leonard and Jane quickly responded.
Deep down, their hearts fluttered with excitement. After all, a colonel from the military region was greeting them! Zack's family watched with a mixture of envy and jealousy.
"Nice to meet you," Harrison said courteously.
"Nice to meet you too! Leonard and Jane were overwhelmed by the attention.
Harrison laughed warmly, then turned to Cameron. "Mr. Morgan, I won't be bothering you any longer. Don't forget our tea appointment. I'll be waiting for you." "Of course!" Cameron laughed heartily.
"Mr. Morgan, I'll be taking my leave now," said Harrison, turning to leave.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe suite fell silent. Everyone except Cameron seemed frozen in place.
Leonard was the first to snap out of it as he looked at Zack's stunned family. He hurriedly said, "Everyone, please sit down." "Huh? Oh!" They finally regained their senses and took their seats, but their expressions were notably awkward, especially Zack's and Tina's.
Their faces were red, all the way down to their necks, and they were visibly embarrassed when they remembered their behavior earlier, They thought about how Leonard's son-in-law had maintained such a modest profile despite his significant status. Then, there was them, a mere Director of Taxation and a high school principal, who had desperately flaunted their inferior roles. "Zack, Tina, let's all eat while it's hot.
There's too much food here. We can't finish it, and it won't taste good once it cools," Leonard kindly e suggested after Zack's family sat there. "Okay..." Zack responded dryly.
He found it difficult even to pick up the cutleries as he stared at the table full of delicacies.
"Thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Jennings. Thank you, Mr. Morgan!" Miles kept expressing his thanks with an obsequiously sweet tone.
Fiona looked disappointed. She watched as Miles groveled, then glanced at Cameron, who remained composed as he sat across from her at the table. She suddenly becless enamored with Miles.
