SWNOVELS Chapter 391
A single statement suddenly quieted the private room.
Anyone with insight knew what Danny meant by his words.
Cameron maintained a calm demeanor. He simply looked at Danny with a mild expression.
Tara slightly furrowed her eyebrows but quickly relaxed and maintained a smile, saying, "Danny, thank you for your concern. Cameron and I haven't known each other for long, but he treats me very well. I can buy the things I like with my own money."
In her view, the value of a partner wasn't measured by how much money they spent on her but by their responsibility and commitment.
She liked to be independent and capable of buying what she desired. She felt that anyone who tried to sabotage other's relationships was despicable at best!
"Really? is that so? You haven't known each other for long, huh?" Danny's mouth twitched slightly as he forced a smile.
He felt even more jealous inside. He couldn't believe she was defending Cameron!
Witnessing Danny's reaction, Misty sensed an opportunity and sarcastically remarked, "Danny, it seems some people really don't appreciate your kindness. You kindly advise someone to be careful, and not only do they not appreciate it, they think you're trying to interfere in their relationship, believing they've found some outstanding boyfriend. In this era, plenty of men parade under the guise of love but won't spend a penny!"
"Misty, you understand me so well!" Danny's eyes lit up as he heard her words.
Tara observed the behavior of the two. Although she felt displeased, she remained polite out of respect for the fact that they were classmates. "Thank you for your concern, but Cameron is not like that. He treats me very well and is very special to me."
"Really? I haven't seen what's so special about him." Misty crossed her arms and remarked disdainfully.
She clearly wasn't going to let Tara off easily.
Tara had always overshadowed Misty in terms of appearances and academics in school. Now, she was eager to seize the opportunity to settle the score.
Moreover, she felt that with her years of mingling in the circles of the social elite, a man dressed so plainly at such an event was too shabby for her. She couldn't see it what was so special about Cameron. "Just because you can't see it doesn't mean he isn't special," Tara retorted sharply.
She felt angrier seeing Cameron insulted than if she had been insulted herself.
Misty was taken aback by Tara's assertive response. She became even more sarcastic with her remarks.
He's indeed special, sonet
special that he lets his girlfriend fight his battles while he hides like a turtle."

"Who are you calling a turtle!" Tara's tone turned icy cold.
"Is there anyone else?" Misty scoffed, then turned to Danny: "Look at him, then look at our Danny-strong, manly, and capable."
"Cough, cough." Danny coughed lightly as he was flattered by Misty's praise.
Tara raised her eyebrows as she addressed Misty, "Is there something wrong with my boyfriend being low-key?"
"Low-key?" Misty laughed in disdain. "Being low-key requires having the substance to back it up."
"So, he must flaunt his earnings to prove his worth?" Tara fired back.
"That's not necessary. But from what I can see, he lacks the capability," Misty said with a dismissive smile as her words dripped with irony. "You!" Tara was left fuming.
Cameron observed the scene with his cold eyes. After that, he finally said, "So, on what basis do you conclude that I lack capabilities?"
"Heh, the turtle finally speaks," Misty

sneered as her gaze turned contemptuous. "On what basis? Because belong to the upper class! My bag is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, more than what you earn in several years. I
know how to judge people!"
Misty felt supremely arrogant as if she truly belonged to the high society.
However, Cameron simply smiled faintly as he fixed his gaze on Misty. "Are you claiming to be upper class based on your fake socialite persona or because of the counterfeit Hermes bag you're carrying?
