A Love Trap novel Chapter 348

Belinda wanted to ask him a question. She was itching to know whether Camelia had complained about them.

After all, they were all largely responsible for losing her.

At the time, the Gu Group hadn't achieved much. Martin and Belinda always remained busy. Their negligence toward their children was inevitable.

Jeremy was the one who took care of Camelia. But he too was a playful child who couldn't really be held responsible for losing her.

Belinda was worried sick after finding out about Camelia's disappearance.

"My little Camelia got lost! What if she meets some evil guy?" she said, unable to control herself.

The entire family was worried for her, trying their best to find her.

Belinda's words tensed Jeremy, but he decided to comfort her mother. "Mother, she'd be fine. I told her everything about our family, and she took it fairly well. I don't have a lot of work today. I will invite her home for dinner, okay?"

"Okay. Jeremy, you must bring Camelia back anyhow. I will ask Maria to prepare dinner. What's her favorite food? I'll have it especially done for her,"

she said in an excited tone. She seemed refreshed after listening to Jeremy's words.

What did Camelia like to eat? That was a difficult question. He didn't know much about her food preferences.

Jeremy pouted, wondering what to say.

After a while, Belinda spoke again, "Hello? Jeremy, are you there? What's Camelia's favorite food? I need to tell Maria to get to it.

You know what? I should do it myself! I'll go get all the ingredients and make her a delicious meal. Tell me, Jeremy."

"Huh? Mother, Camelia's taste is similar to ours. She isn't much of a picky eater. Make anything you think she'd like. See you tonight. I'll call her now," said Jeremy.

"Okay, then. You can pick her up this evening..." Belinda said, expecting her to agree.

"Okay," said Jeremy and hung up.

Belinda remained stuck to her bed, talking to herself. "She isn't fussy about food? As a child, she used to be..." she spoke out loud.

'What if it's because her foster family is poor and she had to compromise? If that's the matter, my poor girl would really have suffered.

She used to be so demanding!

I will cook a lot of things for my little girl, ' she thought, hoping to make her happy.

Jeremy had no idea Belinda would give so much thought to something he'd said so casually.

If he had known, he wouldn't have mentioned it at all.

"Martin, Martin! We need to go grocery shopping for tonight's dinner! Camelia is coming over to join us. I want to make a lot of dishes for her,"

Belinda shouted from the bedroom, walking out toward the living room, where Martin was lying on the sofa watching TV leisurely.

The loss of Camelia had inflicted a permanent kind of sadness on Belinda. The chance to meet her was like a ray of sunshine. Martin was happy to see her so enthusiastic.
