Camille widened her eyes and coughed lightly trying to figure out what he meant by saying that. "You do know you are being so hilarious right now.""I'm not being hilarious, but I'm sure you misunderstood me which...of course...is expected."She frowned as she watched him grab a bottle of wine and pour it in his glass cup gulping down all of it at once. Doesn't he ever get tipdy?

And why on earth do you think I’ll agree to it?”“We both need each other’s help. You mostly need my help.” He tipped his glass and slumped on the office chair that squeaked at every move.She closed her eyes and took deep breaths in and out. “What do you know about me?”“Everything I’m supposed to know-““You-you searched about me without my permission?!

“Oh-“ Sean said, coming back to reality. “I’m fine grandma, I was just thinking-““About Camille?

Few minutes later, the maids walked into the dining room with trays of food that rested on their palms.They walked inside the room in a straight line and carefully placed the trays of food on the long white tabl

Camille stepped out of the car and onto the paved driveway, gazing up at the grand entrance of the luxurious mall. She had always dreamed of shopping in places like this with Fredrick, but now, she was alone.“I guess some dreams aren’t meant to come true,” She thought to herself.As she entered the mall, her eyes widened in awe at the opulent decor and high-end boutiques. She spotted a stunning blue sparkling short dress in a display window and couldn’t help but gasp. She had always taken a fancy to that designer’s works, and only admired them in magazines. But as her fingers reached out to touch the glass, a mocking voice stopped her. “Even if you sell your generational properties, I doubt it’s enough to get that.” Camille was taken aback by her rude words and wanted to speak, but she was cut short again.“I’ll suggest you step away from the glass,” the sales assistant sneered. “I wonder why numerous people don’t know their place these days.”Camille turned to see a young sales as

Why was he here?Camille instantly tensed up and glanced behind a young man dressed in black suit and a black tie, but she didn’t see the man in her mind.Then who was this?Jennifer frowned unpleasantly, “Who are you?”The young man sneered and commanded directly to the person behind him.“How dare you be arrogant and treat guests based on how they dressed and how they look? If we let you do this for a long time, it will definitely ruin the fame of the industry.”“Mr.smith, take down miss Jennifer’s words today, and fling them back to Mr. Williams. Ask them not to blame us for kicking them out in spite of the contract. From now on, the Williams family will not get involve with Famous industry!” the young man said seriously.Mr. Smith trembled and agreed hastily.Jennifer’s face changed instantly, “Y-you’re from Famous industry? The Rodriguez?”The young man sneered, “Took you so long to finally figure out what’s going on.”After that, he walked straight to Camille whispering. “Ma’am

Camille walked into the Riley's residence, her family already seated at the lunch table. Her mother and sister Cassie looked up, surprise and annoyance flashing across their faces. But her father, a warm smile on his face, stood up to greet her."Camille, sweetheart, it's so great to see you!

The room fell silent as the video played, showing Camille and the man laughing and drinking together. Camille's face turned bright red with shame and embarrassment. She tried to step forward, but her legs felt like lead.Mr. George's face turned beet red with anger and disappointment. "What is the meaning of this?" he thundered.Miriam's voice was smug and self-satisfied. "This, dear family and friends, is the reason why Frederick divorced Camille. This is the kind of behavior she's been exhibiting."The room erupted into gasps and whispers. Cassie's friends and acquaintances looked at her with shock, disgust, and judgment.Camille tried to speak, but her voice was barely audible.

After a moment, he looked up at Sean. “She's been given an aphrodisiac. It's driving her urge for sex.”Sean's face darkened. “What kind of sick person would do

“Why didn’t you tell me?” Sofia quivered her gaze down, she was covered in sweat as she stuttered. “She-she threatened to kill me,” tears fell from her eyes freely. Camille ruffled her hair in frustration going to seat on a chair. “Stand up.” She said her arms crossed. “I said you can stand up.” Camille said again.

A week passed after the incident, Camille and Sean were discharged from the hospital four days after the incident, and they returned to their daily work like nothing happened.“I won’t be able to go with you, Camille. I’m sorry, but Ethan wants me to go to a party with him. Don’t worry, I’ll go with you next time.
