Chapter: 622
“Mom," Camila called.
Hearing her daughter's voice, Rowena turned with a smile. But when she saw Isaac standing by Camila, her smile froze.
Camila looked at Isaac and said in a low voice first, okay? Why don't you stay here with Joe?"
“I'LL talk to my mother
Isaac readily nodded and let her go.
“Mom." Camila walked to her mother and held her hand.
“Can we talk? Come with me."
Rowena already had idea on what this was about. What she saw upstairs this morning spoke volumes already.
Now that they were back here together in the evening, it was even more certain.
Rowena held her daughter's hand and shook her head. "We don't have to go anywhere. We can talk here."
However, Camila felt uneasy. She was scared that Rowena would say some harsh words. After all, she wasn't a fan of Isaac, but Rowena's next words surprised her.
“Joe is young, and I understand that he needs a family and the Love of both his parents. The little baby has been so unlucky so far, moving from place to place and seeing different faces. Of course I'm happy that you two are now together. He is the father of your child after all. It's true that I wasn't happy with his actions before, but for the sake of Joe, I'm ready to throw every grudge away. The most important thing, is for you both to love and trust each other." Rowena sighed and added, "It's getting late, and I have to take care of dinner. You stay here and take care of Joe."
With that she turned and walked towards the kitchen.
Camila was so shocked that she lacked the words to say how she felt in that moment. She ran towards Rowena and held her tightly from behind.
“Thank you, mom!"
Rowena smiled and turned back to hug her fully.
“Silly girl! You don't have to thank me! I'm your mother. Of course I want you to be happy."
Then she whispered in her daughter's ear, "I'm not blind you know. I saw you two this morning.”
"Mom!" Camila exclaimed shyly.
“Alright, alright! I'll stay quiet!" Rowena raised her hands up with a chuckle. "As long as you're happy.”
"I am, mom. Don't worry," Camila said, just as serious as her mother. Rowena smiled, feeling much better. "Run along now. Let me go and cook."
They smiled at each other and Camila walked back towards the sofa. Isaac didn't pick up Joe. He just sat and stared down at the child. Joe too seemed to be curious about him.
The child Lay there quietly and stared at Isaac, his big eyes blinking. Camila looked at them in amusement. She poured herself a glass of water and asked, "What are you Looking at?"
Isaac didn't spare her a glance. However, he brought up something else. "Do you want to continue with medicine, or do you want to learn business?"
Camila sat down and stared at her baby. Her dream had always been to be an excellent doctor. Aldrin was watching the company and had made great progress too. However, she couldn't leave the company to him completely now. He was smart, but he couldn't work alone.
