“I’m sorry.” Drew was dragged to the door, then turned around to bow deeply. “Also, thank you.”
Claire nodded at Drew with a relieved smile.
After the three of them left, the house finally returned to its peaceful state. Immediately, Claire cradled Camila’s face to check for any harm. Her voice was tinged with regret. “I didn’t protect you well enough.”
Camila sniffled and shook her head.
“It doesn’t hurt.”
Claire wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, watched her daughter tenderly, and said, “From now on, it’s just going to be the two of us against the world.”
Camila hugged her, gently patting her back to comfort her, “I’ll always be with you. I’ll make lots of money, and ahead of us are only good days.”
Claire stroked Camila’s face, sobbing lightly, “I feel so sorry for you.”
Camila smiled and said seriously, “Were you not feeding me enough or not letting me go to school? Besides, you even made me so beautiful that others are jealous.”
Claire couldn’t help but laugh. “Why are you so narcissistic?”
They exchanged a smile, gradually the pain eased in their hearts.
Claire got some ointment for Camila, furious. “I could never bring myself to hit you, my precious girl, and that bitch did.”
Camila chuckled, “Isn’t it because I’m well-behaved?”
“Enough with your joking. Tomorrow, your face will still show the marks. That Melinda has such a strong arm.”
Camila embraced her. “One slap to set boundaries. I think it was worth it.”
She laughed again, showing off her arm muscles to Claire. “Her face will definitely be swollen like a pig’s head tomorrow. I’ve been training, you know.”
After saying that, she paused for a moment. She lowered her eyes, taking a soft breath.
All her skills were taught by Connor.
Claire pinched her arm, which was surprisingly muscular. “You do have some muscle.”
