She's the Campus Prince novel Chapter 538

Chapter 538

Cameron’s reaction had been far too calm.

He spoke to Lance like a bystander, with a detachment that made it seem as if none of it truly concerned him. No emotion. No tendero fue que impersonal replies.

By all logic, he should’ve been desperate to meet his real family. After all, he’d been raised by people who weren’t even his biological parents. He d’elen gone as far as sending them to jail himself.

Anyone else in his shoes would’ve clung to the chance of reconnecting with their birth parents.

But Cameron? He didn’t seem to care at all.

Lance couldn’t wrap his head around it.

Clearly, he was going to need to take some unorthodox measures to get Cameron’s DNA sample.

Once the paternity test was in hand, then they’d talk.

On his way home, Lance’s Bluetooth buzzed with an incoming call from Gavin.

“Yeah, Gavin,” he answered.

“Where are you guys? Already heading back to the island?” Gavin asked.

Lance sighed. “You’re getting ahead of yourself. Cameron refused to acknowledge us. I asked him to take a paternity test–he shut it down.”

“Why?” Gavin asked.

“I honestly have no idea,” Lance said.

“So where are you now?”

“On the road. Heading back,” Lance replied.

“Don’t tell Mom and Dad anything for now,” Gavin said. “Just send the Cameron’s contact info.”

Lance slammed on the brakes.

“Gavin, don’t reach out to him yet. I’m worried he’ll shut down completely if he feels cornered.”

Gavin scoffed, “He’s not that delicate.”

“Gavin,” he said after a pause, “let me handle this. You’ve got your hands full with the company.”

“And that’s more important than family?”

“You’re calling him family,” Lance said, “but he’s not ready to call us anything at all.”

“That doesn’t change the fact that we’re related,” Gavin replied.

“There’s no proof yet. No test,” Lance reminded him.

“Then get it done. Fast,” Gavin said firmly.

“I know. Just wait for my update. Don’t say anything to anyone–not yet.”

Chapter 538.

Helen needed to be warned ton.

Their parents had to be kept in the dark.

Especially their mother.

If their mom found out her long lost son was alive, only to be met with cold rejection–Lance wasn’t sure she could take that

Right now, his top priority was getting Cameron’s DNA.

But there was something else he needed first–understanding. “Why would someone react this way to the possibility of having a real family?”

He booked a session with a therapist.

While Lance had his people trying to discreetly collect a sample, he walked into the consultation room looking for insight.

The therapist listened and then offered him a single term–learned helplessness.

Cameron had likely been emotionally neglected by his adoptive parents for years. That kind of emotional environment could teach someone to stop expecting anything–especially love.

So when Lance showed up, claiming to be his family, it didn’t

. excite him. It didn’t scare him. It just irritated him.

By the time Lance stepped out of the therapist’s office, his thoughts were tangled.
