Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me novel Chapter 365

“You can continue living the life you wish for. You can get married to that woman and move in with your beloved daughter. You all will be a warm and loving family…” Rachel used to work as a host, so she had her way with words. Her speech was constructed in a manner that targeted Cameron’s emotions. Indeed, he felt tempted for a moment, but any hint of weakness or struggle had left his gaze once he blinked and opened his eyes again.

Instead, he narrowed his eyes and gave her a threatening glare. “It’d be bad for someone to eat an excessive amount of antipsychotics, but what has that got to do with me? Rachel, you should know that there’s no way out of your wrongs once you’ve committed an unforgivable sin. How are you going to benefit from sending me to jail?” His words had a hidden meaning to them, and he couldn’t stop himself from cackling after he was done with his sentence. Without taking another glance at Rachel, he simply walked out of the lounge. Did she think she’s the only one who can hold something over me? She did plenty of things to Jenny too, didn’t she? I simply didn’t bother to intervene back then. She had always been vigilant with me, so did she think I was any less careful when I was with her?!

While he was walking away, other thoughts flashed across his mind. Jenny did the same thing in the past. Even Jenny, who was once willing to sacrifice everything for me, had ended up contacting a few of the company’s major shareholders just to get some of Stark Group’s shares. How could Rachel possibly love me more than Jenny did? I naturally had to come up with a plan from the start just to avoid any undesired outcomes!

Rachel’s face darkened as she charged forward in an attempt to block Cameron from leaving. However, since they had revealed their true colors with one another, he no longer bothered to act gentlemanly in front of her, for he simply shoved her away. She gasped in pain when her arm struck against the corner of a cabinet. Her jaw was so tightly clenched as she watched Cameron leaving that she felt like her teeth were about to shatter in her mouth!

“I’m going to make you regret everything you’ve done to me, Cameron!” Her hands were balled into fists, and her nails dug deep into the skin of her palms.

…

On the other hand, Myra and Tony were greeted by Sebastian’s wide grin the moment they returned to the Hart Residence. Sebastian had been in a good mood then, and he excitedly brought Myra a bowl of pumpkin soup once he saw her. “You’re finally back, Myra! Come here; I got the housekeeper to prepare some pumpkin soup for you. This soup’s really great for your skin and your overall health!”

Myra was used to Sebastian’s acts, and she took the bowl from him before she gulped it down. Often, she wondered if the baby in her belly had taken pity on her. The baby was a strong survivor, yet it didn’t seem to give her any trouble throughout her pregnancy. She even felt rather frustrated when she saw how the other pregnant ladies seemed to suffer from a bunch of side effects.

After dinner, Tony wrapped an arm around Myra’s waist as they went out for a stroll in the garden. Sebastian and Lisa stayed indoors, and Sebastian sighed as he watched the couple taking a walk outside. “I’ve never expected this day to come for Tony. I used to be so worried that he would neglect his love life because of his career, and I was afraid he would just pick a random woman off the streets to get married to her. I feel relieved now that I see how in love they are.”

“I know my grandson well. All along, I knew that he hadn’t dated anyone not because he wasn’t interested in women, but simply because he hadn’t found the one that he loved.” Lisa gave him an eye-roll.

“I guess so. I was just the same as him, wasn’t I? I had been putting relationships off until I met you, Lisa. I would have ended up as a single old man otherwise!” He chuckled. Lisa’s lips curled into a faint smile when she saw the sweet look on his face.
