“What did you say?” Camila had her doubts, but hearing it confirmed from Svetla’s mouth still pained her.
“He actually knew it a long time ago, but he kept it hidden from me. Do you remember my driver? He was indeed the mastermind behind your brother’s leg injury. It was also me who asked Maxwell to bail him out of the police station for
me.”
“You lied to me,” Camila refused to believe.
“Why would I deceive you?” Svetla said smugly. “You wouldn’t understand my feelings for Maxwell. If I were to compare him with my grandfather, he might choose my grandfather. But if both you and I were in danger at the same time, I believe he would definitely abandon you.”
“Maybe you’re right. But I believe that even if we got divorced one day, he would never choose you.”
“Why?”
“Because you were so malicious. Even the heavens wouldn’t let you have your way.”
Maxwell’s collaboration with the tyrant was indeed despicable, but the most detestable one was Svetla.
“Camila, you were desperately stubborn. You just wait for me!”

After coming back from the airport, Camila returned home. Gideon was sunbathing in the yard, sitting next to a middle- aged couple.
The man had a kind face, somewhat resembling Dimon. The woman was elegant and luxurious.
“Camila, come and meet your uncle and aunt,” Gideon called out to Camila.
“This is Maxwell’s wife, Camila,” Gideon introduced. “She was a very responsible girl.”
Adam smiled and took out a red gift box from his pocket. “Nice to meet you, this is a little gift for you.”
Camila glanced at Gideon.
“I took what my uncle gave me,” Gideon said.
Camila took the gift box. “Thank you, uncle and aunt.”
“Your name is Camila, right? Have you married Maxwell yet? We haven’t received any notification,” Aunt Paula Brown asked sarcastically.
“We didn’t have a wedding,” Camila replied.
“According to Svetla, you used to live in the rural suburbs? That’s just being a country bumpkin. No wonder you didn’t even have a wedding. The Starling family marrying such a woman, it’s no wonder people would laugh their heads off.”
“You should say less.” Adam bumped into Paula.
“Wasn’t what I said the truth? We are their relatives, and yet they didn’t even bother to ask for our opinion on this

important matter of marriage. How hasty!”

“Are you saying that I acted on my own without consulting others?” Gideon’s face fell.
“Uncle, you misunderstood. She didn’t mean it that way,” Adam quickly intervened, “She was just saying it like that, as if we have any say in Maxwell’s wedding.”
“Shouldn’t you at least ask for our opinion?” Paula persisted, not giving up.
“Enough, you really talk too much.” Adam rebuked coldly.
Paula finally held back the words she was about to say.
“I was tired. You have seen what you should have seen and met who you should have met. Go back,” Gideon issued the eviction order.
“Camila, please see off the guests for me.”
Camila felt a bit embarrassed.
Adam pulled Paula up quickly and said goodbye to Gideon.
Camila took them both to the door.
“Goodbye, Uncle Adam and Aunt Paula.”
“Camila, do you know that Maxwell is the chosen son–in–law of the Felton family? You better have some self–awareness. You and Maxwell are not compatible at all, forcing a relationship will not lead to good results,” warned Paula.
“You shouldn’t interfere in the children’s marriage anymore,” Adam pulled Paula into the car.

Camila admitted that Maxwell was excellent, but even if he was outstanding, he was just a programmer. He was not considered a member of the Felton family either.
She returned to the yard, and Gideon was still waiting for her.
“Camila, Maxwell’s uncle’s family had some conflicts with me years ago. Before, when they were in Louiswick, we kept our distance. Now that they have come to the mainland for development, we might run into each other frequently. But no matter what they say to you, don’t believe them. They are a very cunning family. You need to be careful, you know?”
Camila wanted to ask them what they were being careful about, but she still didn’t speak up.
“I knew, Grandpa.”
“Camila, you’ve been with Maxwell for such a long time, are you pregnant?” Gideon gestured towards his stomach.
Camila’s face turned red.
“Not yet, Grandpa.”
Gideon was somewhat disappointed, but he didn’t forget to comfort Camila. “Don’t worry, this matter can’t be rushed,
take it slow.”
Camila returned to the room and looked at the red gift box on the table. She opened it and was surprised to find a diamond necklace.
The necklace was exquisitely crafted and looked very valuable.

She didn’t know what Gideon was referring to when he mentioned the grudge between him and the Felton family in the past, but from the words and actions of Paula, Dimon, and Svetla, it was clear that the Felton family, as Gideon had said, were cunning and not good–hearted people.
In the afternoon, Camila arrived at the company and saw Felicity waiting for her at the office door.
“What happened?”
“Mr. Hottie is here,” Felicity said mysteriously.
“Who’s Mr. Hottie?”
“Dewitt Booker, don’t you know? He was Mr. Conner’s old friend. He looked just like that young celebrity who recently emerged, what was his name again?”
Felicity couldn’t stop gossiping.
“He caused quite a sensation every time he came to the company. All the young girls in our company would come out to see him. Oh, it was really spectacular. It’s a pity you didn’t get to see him.”
“Is he really that handsome?” Camila thought Dewitt was indeed handsome, and in a refined way, but was he really so adored?
“He was not only handsome, but also a breath of fresh air among the second–generation rich. Do you know who his father is? Aden Booker, the founder of Glory Gaming. He

could have inherited the family business, but he insisted on becoming a surgeon. He was so handsome, holding a surgical knife, looking extremely cool.”
“My grandmother’s surgery was performed by him,” Camila said lightly.
“Oh? So you already knew him! Do you think he was handsome?”
“Not bad, I would give him a score of 90.”
“What do you mean by ‘just okay‘?” Felicity protested, “Since you know him, why don’t you introduce him to me?”
“Weren’t you interested in Kevin? You changed your mind so quickly, huh?”
“Kevin was the god–like figure standing at the top of the food chain, and I could only dream and fantasize about him. As for Dewitt, I might have a tiny chance.”
“But I think Dewitt doesn’t have much chance,” Camila recalled Dewitt’s obsession with his ex–girlfriend, fearing that it would be difficult for anyone to enter his heart again.
“Why?”
“I felt like he was quite difficult to approach,” Camila said tactfully.
“You felt it too. I heard that when he came today, your classmate also went to watch. With her looks, she still wanted to flirt with him. She really overestimated herself.”
