Divorced the Cheat Married the Fleet (Camilla and Lance) novel Chapter 337

Sarah didn't look calm anymore. Her eyes were red, her voice quivering as she said, “Camilla, okay, maybe I messed up before, but I’ve been trying to make it right. I really want things to be good between us. I don’t get why you’re freezing me out now.

You’re going to marry Lance, so we’ll all be family sooner or later. Don’t you think it’ll be super awkward if we keep this tension between us?”

“Sarah, you…” Dane had just been standing by, silent, but hearing Sarah’s sharp tone finally pushed him to speak. He got only halfway before he saw Sarah’s watery eyes looking at him, and then he hesitated, not knowing what to say next.

He knew Tessa had raised Sarah herself, something even Lance hadn’t experienced. With Tessa on her side, nobody ever dared to treat Sarah lightly.

Dane was especially careful. The last thing he wanted was to upset her and have Tessa show up, making everything even more complicated.

Camilla said, “Sarah, that’s an interesting way to put it. But if you really want to invite someone, you should let them say no if they want to.

If me not going to your birthday party means I’m trying to make things tense with you, then I don’t know what else to say. Honestly, we’ve only met a handful of times, and if we’re being real, we’re not even friends yet.

Right now, I think the best thing for you to do is to leave my house.”

Camilla just wasn’t budging, and the feeling left Sarah with a tightness in her chest, like she couldn’t catch her breath. She was still holding the cup of tea Dane poured earlier, but now her fingers were stiff, and the cup almost slipped.

Sarah remembered how, back when they first met, Camilla always cared about Lance’s feelings. If she ever brought up Lance, Camilla would back off just a little.

But now…

Camilla was just telling her to leave, no hesitation. If Sarah actually walked out, it’d be completely humiliating. She forced a small smile and tried to say something else, but then a voice came from the entry—familiar, the kind that annoyed her and made her nerves spark all at once.

“Sarah, didn’t you hear Camilla? She’s telling you to go.”

Lance walked in, handed his jacket to the housekeeper, and looked right at Sarah. He wasn’t even trying to hide his impatience.

Sarah’s forced smile dropped right away. “Lance, I… I just wanted to invite you and Camilla to my birthday party. That’s all, I…”
