"Can you come back now?" Camilla's voice was calm and indifferent, showing no signs of emotion.Jayden's brows furrowed. "Not right now. The experiment is at a critical stage. I'll come back earlier tonight, okay?""But I want you to come back now." Camilla's tone suddenly turned cold. "There's something I want to ask you about. It's about you, me, and Tanya."Camilla abruptly hung up the phone.Jayden's brows knitted tightly together. He had a bad feeling about this. He made another call. "Has Camilla left the Bass Manor?""No, but Simon just left.""Okay." Jayden ended the call and pinched the bridge of his nose."What's wrong, Jayden?" Just then, Tanya's gentle voice sounded as she walked towards him.Jayden put down his hand and gave her a cold look through his glasses. His gaze was as cold as ice. "Tanya, you should know you're staying here only because I still have some use for you. Don't do anything that will upset me, or I won't spare you even with that person's pro
Camilla stared at him and pushed his hand away. "How did you find out? Were you monitoring me?"Jayden's brows furrowed. "Camilla, I don't want anyone else interfering in our affairs. Things will only get worse if others get involved. Can't we handle it ourselves?""But would you have told me if he hadn't?" Camilla's expression hardened.Jayden fell silent."You wouldn't have told me. I would be in the dark until the day I die." Camilla smiled bitterly.Jayden immediately exclaimed, "You won't die. I'll cure you.""I don't believe you anymore." Camilla shook her head and stood up. "Now, tell me the truth. Did you use our child for research?"The words from the documents kept flashing in her mind. Special blood type, a baby's blood. Although the child was only a month old and not fully formed, it shared her blood type. It was a terrifying thought. Camilla didn't want to continue the thought.Jayden observed her cold expression. She didn't believe him anymore. Her words pie
Camilla turned to Jenna. Her eyes reddened uncontrollably, and tears welled up. Jenna's words were the final straw. Camilla burst into tears."Mom ..." She threw herself into Jenna's embrace.Jenna patted Camilla's back gently. Her voice choked with emotions. "Her precious daughter," she whispered, holding back tears. How long had it been since they reunited? Who knew her poor daughter had gone through so much? Jenna regretted not finding Camilla earlier. If she had, Camilla wouldn't have suffered like this.Camilla remained in Jenna's embrace, crying out her sorrows. She had never let her emotions out like this before. She suddenly yearned for this feeling."I love him so much ..." Camilla choked. "I've loved him for five years. Since I saw him, I worked hard to be by his side."Jenna listened to her cries. She could imagine how much the girl had grown to love her crush, doing everything to get closer to him."Mom, do you know? I thought my crush was a secret, somethin
The heavy rain poured down relentlessly, gradually enveloping the tall figure in its downpour. ...Camilla didn't get much sleep that night, but she didn't want to disturb Jenna's rest either. So, Camilla asked her to go back to her room. Camilla's heart twisted and turned as she listened to the rain outside, and the emotions she had been suppressing came rushing back to the surface. But this time, she didn't cry.Her eyes cleared, and Camilla made up her mind.It was the next day. The rain had stopped, and the sky was a pretty shade of blue from the rain. However, the sun felt extremely hot today."Bad news!" A maid rushed into the manor in a panic. "Mr. Moore has fainted!"At that moment, in the dining hall, Jackie, Jenna, and Camilla were having a meal. Jackie's expression turned ugly at this. He turned to Camilla and observed her cold expression. He grew distressed at her eerie calmness."Notify the Moore family. Tell them to take him away," Jackie ordered coldly.
"Camilla, can I explain now, please?" Jayden stared at Camilla intently, increasingly panicking as he looked into her indifferent eyes.Camilla shook her head. "I don't want to hear it. Jayden, let's get a divorce."A divorce ... How could it be?"I don't agree," Jayden firmly refused. "Camilla, you're my wife. Now and forever more. I won't agree to a divorce."Camilla stared at him. "After going through all this, I suddenly realized I don't love you as much as I thought. It's the same for you. How about we separate and take some time to calm down? Maybe then we'll see that we can live without each other.""I won't," Jayden protested, "I won't be able to live well if you leave me. I would be better off dead."Camilla's lashes trembled, and she lowered her eyes. "But I don't want to stay by your side anymore. Jayden Moore, since you won't agree to our divorce, we'll do this the official way. You can leave now."With that, Camilla walked upstairs. Her decision was absolute, an
Jayden caught Camilla. He looked at her pale face and leaned down to peck her forehead gently. He said tenderly, "Sweetheart, we won't get a divorce."Jackie and Jenna were waiting for Camilla to return home. But an entire morning had passed, and Camilla hadn't come back. Jenna couldn't help but worry. "Why hasn't Camilla come back yet? Did something happen?"Jackie suggested, "I'll try calling her." He took out his phone and dialed Camilla's number.After a few rings, the call got rejected. "What's going on?" Jackie's brow furrowed, and he dialed again. This time, the phone indicated that it had been switched off."What happened?" Jenna nervously asked.Jackie's face hardened. "Camilla's phone is switched off.""Her phone had been switched off? Why would it be off?" Jenna wondered, perplexed by the situation. Jenna's heart sank. "Wasn't she getting a divorce? Could it be that Jayden doesn't agree to it?"Jackie's face darkened as he stood up and walked outside. "I'll go
"Sweetheart, we didn't have a good beginning, so I've never thought about the ending," Jayden whispered lovingly.However, Camilla felt chills running down her spine. She gave Jayden a strange look. She had never seen him like this before. She never knew that beneath his gentle exterior was an obsessive heart!"So what if you kept me by your side? It will only slowly diminish the love I have for you." Camilla tried to remain calm. "Jayden, can't you just let me go?""No." Jayden's smile faded. "Don't say such things, sweetheart. They upset me."He held her shoulders and pressed her down onto the bed, kissing her lips gently."This isn't over yet. You can't leave me," Jayden said in a low voice.Camilla's body trembled uncontrollably as fear washed over her. "Let me go! I don't love you anymore! Why are you forcing me, Jayden? Can't you just let me go as you did before?""Shh!" Jayden's gaze turned cold. "I don't like you saying such things. How could you not love me? You wer
Camilla stared at the maid in bewilderment. "I'm making it difficult for you? Don't you realize that following his orders to keep me here is making it difficult for me?"The maid looked at her with pity, but that was the extent of her response. Camilla pushed away the maid's hand and stood up on her own. She gazed around the luxurious manor. It was like a beautiful birdcage, and she was forcibly trapped within it. She returned to her room and sat on the edge of the bed, staring blankly ahead. She didn't know what to do.How long would Jayden keep her imprisoned? He didn't even bother to explain anything. What should she do?Camilla turned towards the window, gazing outside at the misty abyss. There were thorns growing. If she jumped down, she would fall to her death. He had cut off her escape route.Camilla's heart sank.Just then, a phone rang. Her head snapped around, and she saw the phone on the table. The screen kept flashing with the caller ID. She immediately rus
