Divorced the Cheat Married the Fleet (Camilla and Lance) novel Chapter 482

Tessa didn't say another word.

She looked entirely hollowed out, her footsteps unsteady as she walked away.

She couldn't fathom how it had all gone so incredibly wrong.

When he was first born, she had loved him so fiercely.

At what exact moment did that love warp into complete, unconditional distrust?

She couldn't find an answer.

The ward returned to a peaceful silence after they left. Lance's gaze shifted to Camilla. "You forced her to come apologize?"

She didn't try to hide it. "I wanted to clear your name. I don't care how many years have passed, the truth shouldn't be buried. I'm sorry for stepping out of line without asking you first, but if I had to do it again, I'd make the exact same choice."

"Why are you apologizing? I'm not mad at you. Thank you, Camilla." He dropped the joking facade, looking at her with an intense, burning warmth.

The sheer heat in his eyes made a furious blush spread across her cheeks.

The air in the room seemed to thicken with sudden romantic tension. Jasper immediately ruined it with a look of utter disgust. "Eww! Mom, Dad, can you stop being so mushy? It's making me awkward."

"What does a kid know about being awkward? Get over here and be mushy with us." The playful arrogance instantly returned. He waved the boy over and pulled out his phone, opening the camera.

With a quick click and a flash, the three of them were immortalized on the screen.

The spontaneous photo hadn't ruined the incredibly warm atmosphere in the slightest.

In the picture, his arm was wrapped securely around her shoulders, while Jasper leaned happily between them, flashing a brilliant smile.

It was, for all intents and purposes, their first real family portrait.

The very first photo they had taken together since his identity was officially confirmed.

Highly satisfied with the result, he set it as his lock screen and immediately posted it to his social media.

He didn't bother adding a caption. The pure flex spoke for itself.

Seeing this, Camilla asked him to send her the photo and posted it to her own feed.

The second it went live, a flood of congratulatory messages started pouring in.

There was plenty of good-natured teasing mixed in, all of it overwhelmingly supportive.
