Since Belinda was not in good health, and Martin had to spend most of his time looking after her, Jeremy took charge of looking for Camelia.
He had to spend a lot of time and effort to find her.
Martin looked at Jeremy and said, "Son, you are not getting any younger. You should focus on finding a wife and having your own family. I know that finding Camelia is important. But you also have to think about yourself. I'm sure that your mother will also agree with me."
"Let's talk about that later. But for now, all I want is to find Camelia first."
Martin knew Jeremy very well. Once Jeremy had decided on something, it would be too difficult to change his mind.
"Okay, it's up to you. But I just want you to take care of yourself too. Remember, you are in your thirties now."
"I know, Dad."
"Alright. You'd better go home and rest now. Don't worry about your Mom. I'll take care of her. Get some good sleep because you still have to go to work tomorrow."
Jeremy wanted to stay, but Belinda might not want to see him when she woke up. Besides, Martin was there to take care of her.
So, he left.
For the meantime, the Gu family kept the truth about Angelina's real identity a secret.
After all, they would surely be disgraced if other people knew about it.
Angelina was now on the streets. Since she left the Gu residence, she had no place to stay.
She took out her phone to call her friends.
Feeling depressed, she needed someone to talk to and a place to stay even just for one night.
However, all of her friends rejected her.
Upon checking her phonebook, Angelina found out that she had already called everyone on the list.
Who else could she call? Where else could she go? No one was willing to listen to her.
As the daughter of the Gu family, Angelina met a lot of ladies from the upper class.
She went shopping and partied with them. She had lots of fun when she was with them.
Then, she started to forget her old friends. Since they belonged to the lower class, she got disgusted with them and stopped communicating with them.
And now that she had nowhere to go, none of her old friends were willing to let her stay even just for a night.
Angelina couldn't help worrying, especially that she hadn't much money left in her pocket now. She gave almost all of her money to the Li family a few days ago.
She felt burned out. Left with no choice, she looked for a hotel to stay.
'I'll think about everything tomorrow, ' she thought and went to bed.
What Angelina didn't know was, someone had photographed her while she was going out of the Gu residence with her suitcase.
She was also photographed when she was making phone calls on the street and venting her anger on the nearby trash can.
Paparazzi always targeted celebrities and wealthy families. They loved gossiping about them on social media, newspapers, and TV.
And as expected, Angelina was on the headlines the next day. It was said that she was seen leaving the Gu residence.
Many people wondered whether she ran away from home or she was kicked out.
Although Angelina kept a low profile when she was still with the Gu family, some people knew about her.
Angelina was still asleep when she was awakened by the ringing of her phone.
It was Susie.
Susie befriended Angelina because she liked Jeremy. Since Angelina was Jeremy's sister, she thought that she could get closer to Jeremy if she became Angelina's close friend.
She was concerned about Angelina when she read the news. Thinking that it was not true, she immediately called her.
