Chapter: 242
Her father loved his son so much. She, as his daughter, could only become handy for him when he needed her.
She felt her heart clenched at that thought. The sadness that could not be described in words swallowed her gradually.
She was fine to endure it. After all, it was not the first time. She took a deep breath and said, “I get it. I will tell Isaac about it, but I will help you only for this time. Don't come to me again."
After saying that, she walked past him and entered the house, with her head held high and her back straight.
Hearing Camila, Marvin was very happy. He said, "Thank you." Camila, on the other hand, became gloomy. Her father would only come to her when there was something wrong with himself or his son.
He had never visited her because he missed her. He actually didn't remember to miss her in the first place.
When Glenda saw Camila, she immediately noticed that the latter had something in her mind, and that something was definitely not a good thing. Concerned, Glenda asked, "Is your work not going well?"
Camila shook her head and answered, "No."
Glenda smiled and said, “Then, you must be tired. Go and have a rest. I will cook something delicious for you. I heard that there would be a lantern show on the riverside tonight. After dinner, we can go and see it."
When Camila heard that, she looked at Glenda with eyes full of love. She then suddenly stepped forward and hugged Glenda tightly.
It had not been that long that Glenda knew Camila, but she cared about the latter so much even when it came to small matters, making Camila feel welcomed and loved. Glenda really treated Camila better than her father.
“Glenda, thank you. Thank you so much for taking care of me." "Oh, don't mention it." Glenda smiled kindly.
After hugging her, Camila got back to her seat. She then dived into her train of thought. The hug just now made her realize that she had become too weak. She shouldn't have expressed her emotions. She shouldn't have shown her weak self in front of others so easily.
In the future, she would be the mother, and she had to protect and support her child. Also, she had to take care of her mother. She would never let anyone make her mother sad.
She had to be strong no matter what. Only then would she be able to make her child and Rowena safe.
Thinking about it, she didn't realize that she had been crying. She quickly turned her head and wiped off the tears on her cheeks.
At that moment, she saw Isaac standing at the door!
Isaac noticed Camila‘s tear-stained face right away even though Camila did her best to wipe away the tears and force a smile.
Camila was hoping he hadn't noticed.
She hoped so! She didn't like showing her weaknesses in front of Isaac. Why was she crying?
Was it because of Debora pulling her hair? Or was it something else? Isaac asked, "Do you need me to sign up for fighting classes for you?" This confused Camila.
What was he on about?
“Are you upset because you were beaten by Debora?" Isaac asked, sinking into the sofa. One of his arms he draped over the sofa back and with the other, he started to unbutton his suit jacket.
"No, that's not the reason," Camila denied.
He prompted, "So why are you crying?"
