Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me novel Chapter 353

“Innocent?” Cameron turned around to face Rachel, who was sobbing nonstop. For the first time ever, he was revolted by her presence. Compared to her, Myra’s mother would never do something as foolish. She taught Myra well, to the point that even he had to be wary of her. In the least, Myra’s mother would never raise such a piece of incompetent trash who ended up being a liability to the company.

“Your mother isn’t innocent at all! She must have known early on that you had a fling with Hayden, but she never informed me about it! Did you two think you are able to toy with everybody around you?” Cameron had a chilly gaze in his eye.

As Kris kept her arms resting on the bed limply, she clenched her fists as she inhaled sharply; all she could feel was a sense of despondency. Meanwhile, Rachel was also extremely disappointed in what happened.

Throughout her marriage with Cameron, he would always order her around. Despite her title of Mrs. Stark, she had no claim to power. Even after all those years, Cameron never gave her any of the company’s shares, nor was he willing to offer any to his daughter. Other than that, Kris and her had to help him fight Myra’s mother, and then Myra, but in the end, they could only suffer humiliation by his hands.

“Why does it matter?” Clenching her teeth, Rachel wore a look of despair, yet she was fierce and resilient all the same when she glared at the man that she had spent her entire life serving. “Cameron, Kris and I don’t owe you sh*t! We have always been obedient to you! For the sake of your career, Kris forced herself to be with the man she hates, so why does it matter now that she failed, and the Waltons won’t invest in the Green Palms Project? Have you forgotten that your eldest daughter didn’t even want to help you? Don’t you feel guilty at all for treating Kris and I like this?”

“Guilty? How dare you even mention that to me?” As if having heard a joke, Cameron began mocking her mercilessly. “Don’t you know how the public will judge me and Stark Group from now on? Who do you think you are? If I so wish to, I can sleep with any other woman I want, and get them to give birth to my baby! I’m sure I won’t even get such an incompetent daughter like her!”

Rachel staggered backward subconsciously as soon as she heard that. Just now, she was enraged, which was why she talked back to Cameron, but she never expected to hear such despairing words from him. If I so wish to, I can sleep with any woman I want, and get them to give birth to my baby. I’m sure I won’t even get such an incompetent daughter like her! What he said pierced her heart like daggers.

She felt suffocated when she clenched her fists. Seeing red, she launched forward to slap Cameron. “You are inhumane, Cameron! You vile cockroach! How could you treat Kris and I like this?”

She reached out to slap him, but he caught her hands and then shoved her backward, which caused her to fall onto Kris’ bed. Panicking, Kris tried to stop her parents’ fight. “Mom, Dad, stop it! Don’t fight—”

“Rachel Parker, have you ever thought about why you could stick with me throughout all these years? Let me tell you; you are nothing compared to Jenny Eckhart. Your only merit is that you’re obedient. Now that you have even lost that, the Starks no longer need you and your daughter!” With that, Cameron let out an angry huff before opening the door of the ward to leave.

Standing there in the ward, Rachel could feel her whole body trembling as what just happened was beginning to sink in. After some time, she finally started to weep, and Kris was also sobbing in a hushed voice. In the end, both of them were wailing in each other’s embrace.

“Kris, did you hear what he said? He’s not your father, but a demon! I shouldn’t have been so naive! Why did I assume that I could get everything that I want by relying on him? H-He never forgot about that b*tch!”

The mention of Jenny’s name gave Rachel a heartache. If it weren’t for Rachel’s help, Cameron would never have been able to seize everything from Jenny and claim Stark Group for himself. Now, he was obviously being ungrateful by trying to cut ties with Rachel.
