Jayden chuckled softly. "I'm unsure of this. The perfect answer would be love at first sight, but I don't want to lie to you." Camilla was stunned as this wasn't the answer she was expecting. Her eyes flickered, but she remained silent and allowed him to continue. He then continued with a gentle voice, saying, "I'm not sure when it happened, but when I'm with you, I feel happy. I love staying by your side." Camilla didn't know what to say. Jayden's gaze fell on her, but he couldn't make out her expression as the ward was pitch black. "Camilla, I'll only grow fonder of you …" His soothing voice reached her ear, making her once calm heart start to race. She liked the sound of that."Camilla?" Jayden called out when he received no response.To evade the situation, Camilla closed her eyes and feigned sleep, pretending she had dozed off."Why can't we be together? There are no serious hindrances between us after all." Jayden sighed. Camilla's eyelashes trembled. She thought she cou

Camilla closed her eyes and repeated in an even colder voice, "Where are you now?"Josephine sneered and said, "What's the matter? Do you want to teach me a lesson? Don't forget that I'm your mother. I will ruin your reputation if you dare to go against me!"Camilla gripped her phone tightly. Her tone became bone-chilling. "For the last time, where are you now?"Josephine could tell that Camilla was angry, and her confidence decreased. However, she still said stubbornly, "Since you dared to stop me from getting rich, I'll repay the favor by making you jobless. We can perish together!" She hung up immediately after that.Camilla closed her eyes and tried to calm herself down. Suddenly, she had a revelation. Josephine had mentioned that she'd stopped her from getting rich, but what means could she have for that? The only way Josephine could get rich was through gambling. What exactly did she mean?A car stopped by her side as she was deep in thought. "Camilla," Simon's voice rang ou

Camilla looked over at Josephine, her gaze indifferent. It took a moment before she walked into the room. Instead of closing the door behind her, she asked right away, "Why are you staying here? Why didn't you come to me?" Usually, Josephine would have come to her the moment she found herself short of cash. She would rummage through her stuff and leave only when she managed to get her hands on some valuable items. This time though, Josephine did not come to Camilla, choosing to stay in this little motel instead. Where did she get the money from? Josephine's eyes glinted in the light as she answered, "I thought you sent those people after me, so I didn't dare to go see you. What if you had them finish me off? Who knows what someone as heartless as you would do to me!"Camilla furrowed her brows and asked, "How did you know I was looking for a job, then? And how did you know that I've left the research institute?"Josephine felt rather diffident but still snapped, "Do you have any

Hastily, Scott insisted, "I'm fine, really. Don't worry. I don't need to go to the hospital." Camilla knitted her brows. "But …"Scott laughed it off. "It's just a bruise, not a fatal wound. I'll be fine after getting some rest." Seeing how persistent he was, Camilla decided not to dwell on the matter. Suddenly, four bodyguards darted into the room. They all let out sighs of relief to see Camilla safe and unscathed. "Ms. West, we're so sorry for being late," one of them said. Camilla shook her head. "Don't be. I'm alright." The bodyguard nodded and asked, "We've caught Josephine. How will you deal with her?" Camilla lowered her head before replying, "Send her to the cops." "Yes, miss." After leaving the motel, Camilla glanced up at the overcast sky and felt a wave of regret wash over her. "Camilla, why did you come here? And who's after you?" asked Scott, confused. Camilla shook her head. "I don't know, but I'll find out. Thank you for saving me. I'll treat you to

Simon scoffed, "I'm the one who has the last say in that!" Camilla knitted her brows, lowered her phone, about to hang up. "I'm downstairs," Simon's voice sounded from the phone again. This time, his voice lacked its usual languid and irritated tone. It was raspy and sounded rather constrained. Camilla felt her heart skip a beat. "Why are you here? What are you trying to do, Simon?" Simon laughed. "Why, I suddenly realize that the way you call my name is simply delightful."The frown on Camilla's face deepened. "Come here. Otherwise, I'll go upstairs." Simon hung up the moment he finished his sentence. Camilla was dumbstruck. The look on her face was far from pleasant. She could not understand why Simon had come to see her. Didn't he already leave? However, it was late, and she did not want things to escalate. She changed and went downstairs to meet him. Just as she walked out of the corridor, she saw a figure dash toward her. Camilla retreated, her eyes alert. "It's
