Chapter: 148
But he eventually followed his advice and took a cold shower.
The next day, Camila was discharged from the hospital.
The moment she stepped out of the building, she was stopped by someone.
It was Trudy who stopped Camila from leaving.
Marvin sought out Camila in an effort to plead for Aldrin's case, but she did not agree.
Now, her son was going to jail.
It was unlikely that he would spend too much time behind bars.
The problem was that he now had a criminal record.
Even if he managed to complete his education, he would be left with few options for his future.
That was why Trudy was angry.
She hated Camila for not helping Aldrin.
To her, the younger woman embodied everything that was heartless. Today, Trudy planned to humiliate Camila.
She paid some reporters to come to the hospital.
Then, she would kneel in front of Camila.
It was a perfect plan.
She intended to make everyone think that Camila was a wicked and ungrateful woman who had chosen to forego the opportunity to help her brother.
As she went down on her knees, Trudy wailed, “Camila, why did you refuse to help Aldrin? Don't you have any conscience? He's your brother!"
Her eyes began to fill with tears.
With how pitiful she looked, those who did not know would definitely feel sorry for her.
There were a lot of people at the entrance of the hospital.
She did not have a hard time creating a ruckus.
Soon, a crowd formed around them, eager to know what was going on.
Trudy was older than Camila, and she was kneeling in front of her, so of course, everyone would feel sorry for her. Not to mention, she had excellent acting skills. It was not long before the onlookers were throwing Camila disapproving looks.
Then, they started whispering among themselves.
Some people who thought themselves to be morally superior began criticizing Camila.
