Chapter 262
Back to the camp, Kenneth got out of the car, ignored Cassandra, and directly walked away.
Cassandra was left standing at the car door in a daze.
She didnât think this was a good sign.
Kenneth was angry with her, but she didnât expect this to happen as well.
Moreover, when the signal was blocked, she cracked it right the first time and asked someone to
contact him.
She couldnât figure out why he was still so angry.
Seeing that Kenneth came in alone, Yannick and Kayden were a little surprised. They thought Kenneth
went to pick Cassandra up.
So they were confused seeing him back alone.
âKenneth, whereâs Cassie?â Kayden couldnât help asking.
Kayden was worried that Kenneth failed to bring Cassandra back from those people.
Kenneth didnât say anything. At this time, Cassandra also came in with aggrieved eyes touch of fear for
having done something wrong�
and
a
Yannick thought, âI mustâve misread it. When has Ms. Yates ever admitted she did something wrong?
âMoreover, it seems that Mr. Zelinski is angry with Ms. Yates. Otherwise, his face wonât be so sullen.
âMr. Zelinski is still angry with Ms. Yates at such a time. Heâs such an unqualified boyfriend!â
Kayden winked at Yannick.
His
eyes said, âLetâs go out and let the two of them talk.

The latter replied with his eyes too, âIs that okay? I feel Mr. Zelinski will eat Ms. Yates alive!
Kayden winked as if saying, âCassie knows what sheâs doing, and Kenneth wonât do anything to her.
Letâs go first.â
Therefore, Yannick and Kayden silently left the tent and left the two of them alone.
âKen, are you angry?â
Seeing that no one else was in the tent, Cassandra ventured to walk towards Kenneth.
His face was gloomy. In the past, he was always formidable even though he didnât show his anger, but
now the emotion on his face was quite obvious.
Kenneth ignored her and didnât even look at her.
Cassandra could feel his anger. She felt that he didnât want to talk to her, so she decided to let him
calm down and talk about this matter later.
So, she turned around and walked towards the door. Looking at her lonely back, Kenneth felt
distressed.
He thought, âWhy should I get angry with her? She was only doing this for ordinary people involved in
the war.
âSheâs Dr. Quirke. How can a doctor watch people die and do nothing? Then she wonât be herself.â
But as long as he thought of the time when he went there and saw Kamilaâs subordinate aiming his gun
at her, his heart was lifted up to his throat. He was so afraid that something horrible would happen if he
was a bit late.
He wanted her to learn her lesson and not go out alone like this again, and he wanted to get angry with
her so that she would know the seriousness of the matter. However, looking at her lonely back, he was
no longer angry but only distressed.
âDo you know what you did wrong?â Hearing Kennethâs voice, Cassandra paused.
She looked at him and noticed the indifference on his face was gone.
2/5
She hurriedly walked to Kenneth and said with a grievance, âI know. I wonât put the gun in the camp
next time.â
Kenneth was rendered speechless.
He thought, âDoes she think thatâs the point?â
âI donât think youâve realized the problem.â Kenneth took a deep breath and told himself not to get angry
with his girlfriend.
âI know what you want to say. Itâs so dangerous out there. I shouldnât go out to save people or put
myself in danger. I understand everything you want to say.â Cassandra paused and said seriously,
âKen, first of all, Iâm a doctor. Itâs not my personality to fold my hands and see people die. I can refuse
to save evil people according to my mood, but those outside are just ordinary people involved in the
war.
âThey lost their homes and money, and they couldnât get treatment in the hospital. Since I met them, I
couldnât leave them alone. Moreover, these two days, Iâve found more than 20 Clusians. Isnât that a
good thing?
âSecondly, Iâm a member of the National Security Bureau. Although Iâm only an information security
department officer, I am also a member of the country and a part of this Evacuation Operation. If there
may be Clusian citizens outside, then shouldnât I them?â
go
find
Cassandra made a good point. As a doctor and a civil servant, she should put the safety of Clusian
citizens first.
However, Kenneth was a human being and had his own selfish motives. He just wanted Cassandra not
to get hurt.
âBut have you ever thought about me? When I saw Brut put his gun against your head, have you
thought how I would feel? Have you thought I might be afraid when I saw that scene?â
Kenneth felt that his retort was a little powerless.
âI understand. You were all over my mind. I knew that you mustâve received the news and would come
to save me as soon as possible and not leave me in danger, so I wasnât afraid of those people.
Besides, I just didnât have a gun, but I could protect myself. It wouldnât be a
3/5
problem for me to snatch one from them.
âBut at that time, I thought if you came over and saw me against so many people, you would be more
frightened, so I didnât act rashly and waited for you.â
Speaking of this, Cassandra also felt a little aggrieved. No one dared to point a gun at her head like
that before, but she had experienced it today.
If it had been in the past, she would definitely strike back. But she pretended not to see it because she
was afraid that her counterattack would scare Kenneth.
When the Evacuation Operation was over, she would surely rip that manâs head off and kick it like a
ball!
Kenneth felt both relieved and helpless. He was relieved that she had considered him even in such a
dangerous situation, but he was helpless because he knew that she would still do it again.
âFine. But donât think about going out these days. Our men will go find the wounded and missing
Clusian citizens, which is our duty as soldiers. You just need to do your job in the
camp.
âAs for the medicine sent by Ethan, you can sort it out and tell me about the usage and dosage. Iâll
think about how to give it to the people outside, okay?â
Kenneth said that patiently, but he wasnât sure whether she would listen.
âOkay.â Cassandra nodded and continued, âThen can you stop being angry?â
âI wasnât angry with you. I was angry with myself.â He was angry with himself for not going out with her.
Cassandra suddenly hugged Kenneth and said in an aggrieved voice, âI thought you didnât want me
anymore.â
When he got out of the car and walked away without looking back, when he returned to the tent without
saying a word, she thought that she would be abandoned again.
The fear and terror in her heart grew recklessly. She had even thought that if he didnât want
her anymore, she would die with him.
No one was strong enough to be abandoned so many times.
She could be cruel to anyone, but she had imagined countless times that Kenneth no longer wanted
her and still couldnât convince herself.
Luckily, he didnât.
Kenneth felt distressed. He hugged Cassandra and said, âWhat are you thinking about? Iâll never
abandon you.â
âReally?â
âReally.â
Cassandra felt that she was very different from before.
She thought, âAm I only like this in front of him?â
