Thinking of that gentle and radiant goddess, a faint smile unconsciously appeared on Camilla's face. Sitting on the couch, she picked up the spoon and started eating.Jayden sat across from her, ever attentive to her mood. Camilla started feeling slightly embarrassed under his unwavering gaze. She swallowed her food before asking, "Can you please stop staring at me all the time?"Jayden chuckled, "Alright, I won't disturb your meal."Ms. Thompson suppressed a smile. When Camilla felt his gaze shifting away from her, she breathed a sigh of relief and continued eating.Soon, she finished her meal and prepared to leave, picking up the dishes. Ms. Thompson immediately took them from her. "Ms. Camilla, what you need to do now is to rest and recover properly. Please refrain from moving around."With that, Ms. Thompson took the dishes and exited the room. Camilla stood in the room, feeling a bit lost. She was still wearing the clothes that had been cut open, leaving her back
Jayden, however, held onto her hand. "How am I supposed to monitor your recovery if you sleep in separate rooms?"Camilla studied his genuine and sincere gaze.Jayden laughed at her bewilderment. "Alright, I confess, I just want you to stay with me. But I promise I won't do anything else."Camilla sighed, feeling her cheeks flush at his words. "But …" she attempted to argue.Jayden cut her off. "I can take the couch if you're uncomfortable."He had already promised he wouldn't pull anything funny on her, and considering her injury, it was unlikely he would act otherwise.Camilla bit her lip, contemplating her decision. "Okay."Jayden's smile softened, and he guided her to sit on the bed before retrieving their pajamas from the wardrobe—one set for her and one for himself."Since we applied some ointment to the wound on your back, you can't take a bath today. Change your clothes before going to sleep," Jayden instructed.Then, he walked towards the bathroom. Soon, the sound o
Caleb also asked, "Will I have more younger siblings?" Melanie looked eagerly at Camilla's belly. "Ms. Camilla, do you already have a baby?" Camilla was left speechless, her thoughts trailing off as she struggled to find the right words. "These three …" Camilla quickly changed the topic. "Have you had breakfast?" "Not yet. We are waiting for you and Uncle Jay," Thomas replied cheerfully. Thomas went downstairs together with Camilla, followed closely by Caleb and Melanie. Camilla hummed. "We didn't have class last night. I'll make it up to you tonight when I come back." Thomas nodded. "Okay." Soon, Jayden came downstairs and saw Camilla chatting with the three children. He walked over. "Why haven't you guys started with breakfast?" Thomas quickly piped up, "Ms. Camilla said we should wait for you. Oh my, we have to endure the sight of Mommy and Daddy being all lovey-dovey at home. And now, we have to witness Uncle Jay's as well. What did we do to deserve this?" Camill
Kylie smirked teasingly. "So, how are things coming along with the great second son of the Moore family?"Charlotte's eyes widened slightly. "You're acquainted with Mr. Moore? As in Mr. Jayden Moore?""They're not just acquaintances." Kylie grinned. "Mr. Moore has taken a liking to our dear Camilla. I think he's even planning on marrying her.""Enough with this nonsense," Camilla immediately scolded Kylie.Kylie nodded mischievously. "Alright, alright. I won't continue ... since you haven't made it public yet."Camilla let out a defeated sigh. Kylie really needed to stop making things up.Charlotte smiled warmly at Camilla. "It seems like Mr. Moore values you a lot. Does he know that you work here?""Yes." Camilla nodded. Of course, he knew. In fact, he knew everything about her. But he wouldn't interfere in her matters unless she asked. Camilla very much enjoyed their little unspoken rule.Charlotte nodded. "I see."Kylie lifted an eyebrow at Charlotte with suspicion. "You se
Camilla finally lifted her gaze to look at them. When she saw Tanya, she immediately knew Skyler was intentionally stirring up trouble. Camilla calmly spoke, "You must be here to buy something. If not, please refrain from making loud noises, and show some manners.""You!" Skyler didn't expect Camilla to retort and even accuse her of being rude. She was furious and raised her hand to hit her."Skyler," Tanya piped up. "She's just a waitress. Why bother with her? Buying an extra piece of tiramisu would be a blessing to her."Skyler snapped back to reality and crossed her arms. "You're right. She's nothing but a peasant compared to me. She's not worth my anger."Tanya smirked, her gaze shifting to Camilla. "Ms. Camilla, aren't you a private tutor? Why are you working as a waitress here? Are you facing any financial difficulties? I may consider helping you if you are." Tanya took two hundred dollars from her bag and placed it in front of Camilla. "Take this. It should be enough for
"Let go." Camilla broke free from Skyler's restraints and looked at her coldly. "If something really happened to Tanya, the police will naturally come looking for me. But let me remind you, I'm still working right now, so I can't go to the hospital."After that, she ignored Skyler and went back inside the dessert shop."You!" Skyler was infuriated.However, if Camilla didn't go to the hospital, their plan would be ruined. She still needed Tanya's help with her brother's schooling!Tanya had already agreed that as long as Skyler brought Camilla to the hospital, they could make a deal.Determination flashed in Skyler's eyes as she reentered the dessert shop. She picked up a piece of cake and threw it on the floor."Camilla, if you don't come to the hospital with me, I'll wreck the entire shop! When the owner comes back, they will only hold you responsible!" Skyler threatened Camilla.Camilla gave her an indifferent look. "Go ahead. I will call the police once you're done."Skyler
Kyle's expression turned ugly. "It's all because of that woman! If it weren't for her, my precious Tanya wouldn't be inside fighting for her life!" He took out his phone and dialed a number. "Teach that woman a lesson! I want her to long for death!"Peggy paused from her sobbing. "Kyle, something feels off. Shouldn't we wait a little longer?""What are we waiting for? Tanya is about to die!" Kyle shouted angrily. "What's wrong with you? Our precious Tanya is in the emergency room right now, and it's all because of that wicked bitch. How could Tanya end up like this if it weren't for her?"Peggy wanted to tell him about the strange feeling she was having. But when she thought about Tanya's situation, she nodded in agreement. "You're right. It's all her fault ..."Kyle snorted coldly as his gaze darkened. But anxiety quickly washed over him again and he waited nervously outside the emergency room....Camilla was taken into a courtyard on the outskirts after being forced into a car
Kylie stared blankly at Simon's retreating figure. If he went any faster, Kylie was sure he could actually take off and fly.Camilla frowned at Simon and weakly asked, "Why are you here?"When she and Skyler left the dessert shop, she sent a message to Kylie and shared her location. When Kylie sensed something was wrong, she immediately brought her men over.That was why she wasn't nervous or scared from the beginning. However, she wasn't expecting to see Simon here.Simon glanced at her and furrowed his brows. "You look pale. Stop talking for now."Camilla sighed weakly.Fine.It was getting harder for her to speak. Camilla decided to obey Simon for once.Simon put her in the car and quickly got into the driver's seat, rushing towards the hospital.…Meanwhile, inside the hospital.Kyle received a call informing him that Camilla had been rescued. His face instantly darkened. After hanging up the phone, Peggy asked, "What happened?""Someone rescued Camilla." Kyle tightened
