Camilla gave Kylie a helpless look. "Please tell me what's on your mind, Kylie. How long do you plan on keeping me in the dark?" Kylie pursed her lips and felt extremely conflicted. After a while, she mumbled, "You know what? I can't stay silent about this any longer. And you're his girlfriend. You deserve to know."Camilla's frown deepened. So Kylie did know something. What was it?Kylie remained silent for a few seconds before she started, "Brandon found out who Jayden was visiting. It was Tanya."At the news, Camilla's eyes widened into the size of a saucer. She instinctively said, "Wasn't Tanya sent to the countryside by the Huntsman family?" Tanya had set her up before. She bought a tiramisu from the dessert shop and later claimed to have been poisoned by it. Camilla tagged along to the hospital but was caught by Kyle, who ordered his men to beat her up. Later, she was rescued by Simon. When Jayden caught wind of it, he brought Camilla to Tanya's ward. Camilla had witnessed
Camilla shut her eyes.Why, instead of explaining, was he asking her how she found out?The doubtful voices in her head suddenly grew louder."I saw you." Camilla's voice was faint. She couldn't even make out her own words.Jayden sighed. "Camilla, we need to talk. I'll come over to pick you up now."Camilla didn't refuse. When it came to relationships, it was always better to talk it out instead of hiding away. This was the best way to prevent misunderstandings. Camilla was still level-headed when it came down to it.She also still believed him.As long as he was willing to explain, of course.When Kylie came out from the showers, she noticed Camilla was still frozen in place. She clicked her tongue. "Are you still thinking about that?" Camilla blinked at her. "Jayden is coming over to pick me up. I won't be staying over."Kylie furrowed her brow. "You're going back with him?""I want to know the truth."Although Kylie didn't agree with her decision, she knew how importan
Suddenly, a slender and attractive hand appeared in front of Camilla, taking away the marriage certificate. Jayden's low and gentle voice sounded, "I'll be keeping that.""Why?" Camilla instinctively turned to the man beside her. He wore a white shirt, and the gold-rimmed glasses perfectly framed his gentle and elegant demeanor. A small smile adorned his face, adding to his charms. Camilla felt her heart pounding hard against her chest.Jayden held her hand. "To prevent you from running away."Camilla tilted her head in confusion. Why would she run away?Getting married to him was a dream come true. If this was a dream, she would firmly grasp onto it for years to come. Little did she know that not long after, she would desperately try to escape, and his words would become a prophecy.…The two of them got into the car and headed for the Moore manor.Camilla was very nervous. After all, they were already married. And it was time to meet her in-laws. Jayden could sense her anxie
Camilla felt a bit lost. Just then, Tamara took a seat beside her and coaxed gently, "Camilla, my brother wants to marry you. And our family genuinely likes you. So we will spare no expense. Showering you with luxurious gifts is the only way our family knows how to show our love for you. So you don't have to be so nervous when accepting them, alright?" Tamara's words calmed Camilla down. But she still felt a bit uneasy. "But I ... I don't have a dowry."Tamara seemed to understand her concerns and smiled gently. "Don't worry about it. I didn't receive any betrothal gift when I married Sebastian. And I was broke back then too. Dowry was out of the question. Yet we still have a happy marriage. All of these are just materialistic things. What matters most is that the two of you are in love with each other." "Alright." Camilla finally nodded. The weight in her chest gradually lifted.Jayden returned the list of betrothal gifts to Cheryl, who asked someone to add some items to it. Hi
Camilla stared at him, unblinking. "Thank you, darling.""What did you call me?" Jayden's breath hitched, and his eyes darkened.Camilla turned bright red. "Darling."Jayden pulled her close and kissed her. "You're welcome, sweetheart."Oh. That sounded nice.Camilla's face grew even redder, and she felt overwhelmed with happiness. It felt like she was in a dream.The car soon arrived at their home."Do you like it here, or do you prefer the apartment? We can make either one of them our official home." Jayden held her hand gently.Camilla hummed. "I think this place is perfect."It was here that they solidified their relationship. This was their beginning."Alright. Then this will be our home from now on." Jayden nodded.The two entered the manor. Jayden turned to her and asked, "What kind of wedding do you want?""A wedding?" Camilla asked."Yes, I want to give you a grand wedding." Jayden looked at her seriously. He would give her everything she wanted.Camilla blinked.
Charlotte widened her eyes at Camilla in disbelief before she smiled understandingly. "Sure. As long as you've made up your mind." Camilla returned the smile and began working.Charlotte smiled faintly at how happy Camilla looked. Her eyes darkened, and she said off-handedly, "Camilla, I'm truly envious of your relationship with Mr. Moore." Camilla smiled faintly as a blush painted her face. "I was surprised by it too.""You were?" Charlotte raised an eyebrow. "Did he plan an elaborate proposal?"Camilla shook her head. "No."Charlotte's brow furrowed slightly. "The Moore family is different from us ordinary people. Considering the significant difference in your social status, I feel it's unfair to you if he didn't make a grand gesture during his proposal. He didn't even make any guarantees to you. Isn't it too hasty for you to get married to him?" Camilla looked at Charlotte. She knew where the older woman was coming from. But she wasn't like the other girls. She didn't care
Camilla picked up a charm and showed it to Jayden. "Should we put up some of these in the room?"Jayden smiled dotingly at her. "We can if you want to. Do whatever you like with the house."Camilla felt delighted, and a smile appeared on her usually cold face. She looked like a happy yet shy maiden.Camilla bought whatever she liked throughout their trip, and Jayden never turned her down. After they had purchased everything they wanted, an hour and a half had passed. Camilla stared at the filled trunk and couldn't help but smile at how nice all the decorations would look in their home.Jayden opened the passenger seat for her. "Let's go home and start decorating.""Okay." Camilla got into the car, her heart filled with anticipation for the future. After decorating the manor, the entire place gave off new energy. By the time they finished tidying up, it was already 8 pm. Camilla sank down on the couch, tired beyond words. Jayden leaned down and pecked her cheeks. "Will that be
While Camilla was lost in thought, a pair of strong arms suddenly wrapped around her waist, straddling her. She looked up and saw it was Jayden embracing her from behind. He rested his chin on her shoulder. "You're unhappy." Camilla paused. "No, I'm not.""You are," Jayden argued.Camilla sighed. She had never seen this side of Jayden before. He was acting spoiled, but her heart softened at him nevertheless.Jayden held her and slowly led her to the balcony. The cool breeze blew past them, bringing the heat off of them. "Sweetheart, we're married now. We should share everything. It doesn't matter if it's your happiness or sorrows, I want to know everything about you. Likewise, I will share my day with you," Jayden spoke softly and calmly as if reciting a poem. Camilla's eyelashes fluttered, and her heart thumped uncontrollably. She bit her lips before saying, "I just suddenly realized that I might have been deceived by you." "What?" Jayden cocked an eyebrow. "What do you mea
