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
Tamara grew speechless. She stared at Cheryl helplessly, pondering, "Why did Cheryl look so unbothered? Camilla is her daughter-in-law.""Don't look at me like that," Cheryl said faintly, "Being worried won't change anything. It's Jayden who messed things up with his wife. Do you think I can talk his wife into staying?"Tamara remained silent. She thought that Cheryl had a point....Their camping trip ended in the afternoon. Tamara and Cheryl sent Camilla back to the Moore manor before leaving.Camilla took a quick lounge on her bed before getting up again. She checked the time. She still had some time before 5 pm rolled around. Camilla went to freshen up and changed into a different outfit. It was almost time to meet with Ronan. Camilla stared at her reflection in the mirror. A wave of nervousness suddenly washed over her.Just then, her phone rang. It was a call from Jayden. Camilla blinked before answering, "Hello?""Have you rested?" Jayden's gentle voice came through
"I haven't." Camilla turned to Jenna, who was in tears, and handed her a tissue.Jenna took the tissue with trembling hands. Her emotions overwhelmed her, and she covered her face to cry.Camilla felt a bit awkward. Jackie's eyes also reddened, but he was a man and could control his emotions well. He looked at Camilla and said cautiously, "I hope you don't mind. We have searched for you for many years and nearly lost hope. We never thought a miracle would happen, so our emotions might be a bit out of control. You ..." Jackie wanted to continue, but looking at Camilla's reserved look, he decided not to. "Please, have a seat. What would you like to eat?"He handed the menu to Camilla.Camilla muttered, "You can order. I'm fine with anything."Ronan and Noah exchanged a helpless look.Ronan chimed, "Uncle Jackie, Aunt Jenna, please calm down. You might scare Camilla away."Noah turned to Camilla. "Relax a little. Treat this like a ... meeting with friends."Camilla grew silent a
After Camilla was done with her story, the private room fell silent. The first to break the silence was Noah. "Josephine is an asshole!"Jenna held Camilla's hand tightly. "My child, I never knew you had it this hard. As your mother, I feel inadequate for not protecting you and allowing you to live a difficult life ..."Jenna blamed herself. She believed that it was her fault that Camilla had a difficult life.Camilla hurriedly denied, "It's not your fault. It's the traffickers' fault."Jackie also looked at Camilla with guilt. "We found you too late."If they had found her earlier, Camilla wouldn't have suffered."I just wanted to let you know about my life. It's all in the past now. Your guilt and remorse won't change anything. Let's cherish the present and the future instead." Looking at their remorseful faces, Camilla felt helpless. She didn't know what else to say."Yes, our child is right. Now that we have found her, we'll live together from now on. Let's leave the pas
"I can't go back with you right now," Camilla said apologetically. "There are some things I need to take care of first. Once I've sorted them out, I'll come and live with you."Jenna immediately asked, "Is it complicated? Do you need my help?"Camilla shook her head. "No, not for now. I'll reach out to you if I need help in the future."Jenna nodded. "Yes, you should come to us."Jackie handed her a card. "Camilla, this is your pocket money. Ask us for more if it's not enough."Camilla froze, feeling moved by their gestures. This couple was just like her. After being separated for so many years, she didn't know how to express herself properly. But they instantly gave her everything they could offer."Thank you, Dad." Camilla accepted the card and put it in her bag without refusing.Jackie suddenly stood up excitedly. "What did you call me?"Tears welled up in Jenna's eyes. "My child, I ... I ..."Camilla turned towards her and called out, "Mom."In an instant, both of the
Jayden's smile remained gentle, but his gaze had hardened. Camilla was taken aback. For a moment, she was reminded of the times when there was tension regarding the million dollars between them.Her voice softened as she spoke to Jayden, her words laced with disbelief, "Jayden, are you ordering me around?" Jayden caressed her cheeks gently. "I just suddenly feel that you are being a bit disobedient. You are my wife, and you're pregnant. Your well-being is my top priority.""Disobedient?" His words reverberated within her thoughts.What did he take her for? Why did she need to be obedient?Desolation overcame her, and she struggled to calm her emotions. "Jayden, if you wanted a submissive woman, Tanya would have been a good choice. Why did you marry me?"Now, she was doubting why he married her in the first place.However, Jayden continued to stare at her indifferently. "Because you love me, Camilla, and that's enough.""Let go of me." Camilla suddenly pushed him away. "If I
