The next morning.Camilla woke up early and went to make breakfast herself, not letting the chef help. She was actually quite skilled in cooking. Growing up in a poor family, she had to learn all the necessary life skills at an early age. Fortunately, she had learned them well.Camilla had just taken off her apron when Jayden came down. He approached her. "Why are you cooking all of a sudden?"Camilla replied indifferently, "Nathan misses my cooking. So, I made him his favorite waffles. I'll bring them to him later."Jayden cocked an eyebrow. "What about me?"Camilla paused for a moment. "What about you? The chefs will prepare breakfast for you."Jayden's eyes flickered as he held her hand. "I also want to eat the waffles you made. I've never had a meal you cooked before."But Camilla withdrew her hand. "You should eat without me. I have to go to the hospital. This is a critical time for Nathan's recovery. I'm leaving now."With that, Camilla took the food container and lef
"Really? Are you really willing to meet with my aunt?" Ronan thought he was hearing things and asked again."Yes. Please arrange it for me and let me know the timing," Camilla replied calmly."Great, I'll go tell my aunt right away! She'll be thrilled to hear that you're willing to meet her," Ronan exclaimed excitedly and hung up the phone.Camilla put her phone back in her bag and headed straight for the train station. She didn't want to go back to the Moore manor right now. Even though she knew Jayden wouldn't be home, she still didn't want to head back. Resistance had already taken root within her. Camilla was a little sad. She had liked him for years, and despite being married, she still didn't feel at ease. Everything felt like a dream. She could only hope that this dream wouldn't turn into a painful nightmare. But what would become of her if it did?Camilla went straight to Kylie's house. When the door opened, Kylie stared at her in surprise. "Why didn't you tel
Jayden hung up the phone when he noticed Camilla entering the living room. Camilla's phone also stopped ringing."Why are you home so late?" Jayden walked up to her. There was a weird look in his gaze."I had dinner with Kylie. Were you waiting for me?" Camilla blinked and returned a calm look."I was." Jayden nodded. "I came home early today because I wanted to have dinner with you.""Well, I'm sorry," Camilla smirked, "I've already eaten. I have other things to attend to."With that, she headed towards the stairs."Camilla," Jayden's voice rang out, "Didn't you say we should discuss the wedding? Why don't you tell me your thoughts?"Camilla paused for a moment. She calmly muttered, "I don't feel like talking about it today. Let's discuss it tomorrow."Jayden stared at her retreating figure, and his breathing grew heavy. She was growing distant from him. Did she no longer like him? How could that be? In his mind, she should love him forever. Jayden took off his glasses
Jayden furrowed his brows at Camilla but didn't comment on her behavior. He merely spun on his heels and left.Camilla stopped typing, a strong sense of disappointment appearing in her gaze. She had been hoping that Jayden would say something. But why was he still refusing to talk even now? He didn't want to tell her the truth, yet he wanted to discuss their wedding. He was even entangled with Tanya.What did he want exactly?Camilla's heart ached. She took a deep breath, recollected her thoughts, and continued typing on the keyboard. A sketch of a wedding dress slowly took shape on the computer screen....The next day.When Camilla came out of her bedroom in the morning, she heard Cheryl's voice from downstairs."How are Jayden and Camilla getting along?" Cheryl asked the butler.The butler replied, "They have been acting strange. They seem to have had an argument, but they both appear calm. Mrs. Moore didn't come home yesterday, and she didn't make breakfast for Mr. Moor
Camilla went upstairs to change her clothes before leaving with Tamara and Cheryl. They were going to camp at Cherrytown, a nature park near Clacton. It was a vast area. By the time they arrived, the bodyguards had already set up the tents.Tamara took out the prepared food and turned to Camilla. "The scenery here is quite nice, and there's fresh air all around. Do you feel more relaxed being here?"Camilla hummed and nodded. She looked at the clear lake and the lush green trees in the distance, with birds occasionally flying by. Her heavy mood seemed to improve.Just then, her phone vibrated. She took it out and saw it was a message from Ronan.Ronan texted, "5 pm at West Bull restaurant. The third private room. Should I come to pick you up?"Camilla replied, "There's no need. I'll go by myself."Ronan responded, "Okay."...Cheryl handed Camilla a bottle of juice. "What's on your mind?""It's nothing." Camilla accepted the juice and smiled faintly.She felt resistance tow
Tanya looked pitiful, taking all the blame upon herself. She looked like a delicate flower.Both Cheryl and Camilla had dark looks on their faces.Jayden glanced at Tanya and spoke indifferently, "Then why did you insist on tagging along?"Tanya felt speechless.Camilla's eyes flickered towards Jayden, noticing his cold look. But when he felt her gaze on him, a smile formed on his face. With a gentle look in his eyes, he approached her. "This is indeed a nice place. It's ideal for relaxing."His gaze was gentle and affectionate, different from how he had confronted Tanya earlier.Tanya gritted her teeth. Still, she continued with her delicate act.Cheryl stared at Tanya and suddenly spoke up, "I just remembered. The Moore family had worked with the Huntsman family several times. Ms. Huntsman, may I know if you've been involved in your family matters?"Tanya smiled faintly. "That's why I came back. I want to help my parents with family matters.""That's perfect. I need you
The scenery by the lake was beautiful, with birds occasionally flying overhead. Cheryl walked ahead with an icy expression. She had been taking good care of herself and looked only to be in her thirties."Miss Huntsman, did you come back from overseas for your family? Or was it to marry into the Moore family?" Cheryl did not beat around the bush.Tanya was taken aback and quickly replied, "You've misunderstood, Mrs. Moore. I only came back to help my family.""If that's the case, why haven't you returned to the Huntsman family after being back for so long? Why do you keep following Jayden around?" Cheryl turned to look at Tanya coldly. "Don't think that by destroying Jayden's marriage, you can marry into the Moore family. I can't stop Jayden from taking you as his mistress, but you will never marry into the Moore family."Tanya looked distressed. "That's not it, Mrs. Moore. I'm only here because Jayden needed my help for his experiment.""He needs your help? How could you possib
"No." Camilla tilted her head at Tamara curiously. "Why do you ask?"Tamara's eyes flickered. "It's normal to feel discomfort during your pregnancy. But you probably won't feel much since you're only a little over a month into the pregnancy.""What about you?" That piqued Camilla's interest. "How did you feel when you were pregnant?""How did I feel ..." Tamara thought for a moment. "Nothing much. It went quite smoothly." Her three babies were very considerate and didn't cause her much trouble."I hope it will be the same for me." Camilla touched her stomach. She couldn't feel any signs of life growing inside yet.Tamara smiled gently. "Don't worry. Judging by the looks of it, you probably won't have a hard time."Camilla nodded slightly and didn't say anything else.Both of them fell silent, lost in their own thoughts.Cheryl soon returned. When she saw the two girls sitting in a daze, she couldn't help but smile. "What are you two thinking about?""I wasn't thinking abou
