Did he feign affection towards her for the sake of their son?

She gazed at him and questioned, "Do you have any feelings for me? Even the tiniest feelings?"

“Does it matter?" Isaac answered. After that, he noticed her discomfort and it made his fists clench. "We have a child and he needs you," he replied, his tone firm but gentle.

He was cautious about showing too much concern for her as he was aware of the bomb strapped to her. He feared that Travis might harm her.

He feigned indifference.

"Okay."

Camila felt a sudden wave of nausea.

She went completely pale.

She had always believed that he Loved her.

Now it appeared that she had been a fool all along.

True, he had been distant towards her lately, but she thought it was because of what had happened to Cathy.

She believed that he had feelings for her, but he only needed time to warm up to her.

At that moment, Camila's heart ached as she realized that she had been mistaken in thinking he truly loved her and that he only married her because of their child.

Camila couldn't help but wonder if Isaac would treat her any better if he knew she was pregnant with his child again.

So he would begin to love her just because she was going to give him another child?

She found that utterly hilarious! She realized that the love he claimed to have for her was nothing more than a joke.

Isaac's phone suddenly vibrated, but he didn't glance at it. He held onto it tightly, waiting for the pattern of the buzz. He knew that three vibrations meant that Alick and Willie had located Joe and Rowena. If there was only one buzz, it meant that they hadn't found them yet.

Once, twice, thrice.

Then it ceased.

Isaac didn't feel relaxed. He needed to focus on the present situation and made sure that Camila was safe. He looked at Travis, his eyes cold and firm. Then he said, “I have given you what you wanted. Let her go."

“I have her now, so it's up to me when to release her. Have you noticed the bomb strapped to her? I hold the detonator. If I press the switch, she'll explode in an instant," Travis said, pointing to the small device in his palm.

Travis asked with a sneer, "Do you think I'm that stupid to just let her go?" He let out a sarcastic laugh and retorted, “Isaac, you're so naive, aren't you?"

Travis approached Camila and turned to face Isaac.

“You destroyed my family. I'm going to do the same with yours.”

Camila's tear-filled eyes were wide open as she looked at Isaac with a mixture of nostalgia, helplessness and undisguised sadness. Her voice trembled as she said, "Joe is your flesh and blood. You must save and take care of him."
