Chapter 219 Camila Extra 13
Belinda returned to her room and collapsed onto the bed, feeling defeated. She thought, ‘No, I can’t let the Stuard family take Camila from me. They might be kind to her, but they were the ones who abandoned her and left her at the orphanage.
‘Camila has already suffered enough. This time, I won’t let her go through that again. Never.
‘I have to get Camila back. She’s still young, and there’s time to build a bond. One day, she’ll understand that everything I’m doing is for her good.
‘Since Camila achieved excellent results this time, the Stuard family will definitely throw a grand celebration for her. A lot of people will be there, and that will be the perfect opportunity to reveal to everyone that I’m her mother.
‘I’m sure that with everyone watching, the Stuard family wouldn’t dare refuse. They would have no choice but to give Carnila back to me.‘
After coming up with a plan, Belinda finally went to sleep.
Time flew by, and soon it was almost the start of the school year. Three days before school began, the Stuard family held a grand celebration party for Camila.
The event wasn’t held at Skyline Hotel but was instead hosted at the Stuard residence.
At the party, guests mingled in small groups, chatting and laughing. When Harrison and Irene led Camila into the room, the lively atmosphere instantly quieted down.
All eyes turned to Camila. Some gazes were filled with affection, others with warmth, and a few with curiosity. After all, this five–year–old prodigy had already been admitted to Laystoland University of Defense Technology, which meant her future was bright.
The guests, mostly businessmen who already had good relations with the Stuard family, were now even more eager to strengthen their ties after witnessing Camila’s brilliance.
Harrison stepped forward with a bright smile and said, “Ladies and gentlemen, we’re gathered to honor my little girl’s-”
Before he could finish, a furious roar shattered the festive mood. “The Stuard family stole my daughter and ruined my family. Do you have no shame?”
Arthur stormed into the room, followed closely by the Stuard family’s security guards. They rushed forward, ready to grab him and throw him out.
However, Arthur struggled fiercely with surprising strength, making it hard for the security guards to hold him back. He stared at Camila and thought, ‘It was amazing a five–year–old girl achieved so much. Good, that’s my girl.
‘If I had known this little bitch was a genius, I never would have dumped her in that orphanage.‘
He saw how much this genius girl could bring to the Jackson family. At just five years old, Camila had already been accepted into Laystoland University of Defense Technology. Her future was limitless.
She was so popular that she was practically on par with celebrities. Even the internet was flooded with news about her.
The Jackson family was bankrupt, and Arthur saw the fastest way to bounce back was by taking control of Camila.
Even if he drained her of every ounce of value, he could still take Camila’s kidney without a second thought once Ivanna’s kidneys failed.
He thought, ‘Ivanna has kidney disease, and what if Agnes develops the same issue when she grows up? The best solution is for Camila to grow up right under my nose. That way, both Ivanna and Agnes will have a kidney source.’
With such a twisted plan in mind, Arthur walked into the room, completely ignoring the fact that today was Camila’s big day. Selfishness had always been his defining trait.
Arthur broke free from the security guards, looking at Camila with tears in his eyes. He played the part of a heartbroken father to perfection as if he had just reunited with his long–lost daughter.
He cried and said, “Camila, my sweet girl, do you know how much pain I’ve endured since the day you were stolen by traffickers right after you were born?
“Your mother was devastated, and she couldn’t eat or sleep. To comfort her, I adopted Agnes, and only then did she start to recover emotionally.
“However, I never stopped looking for you. For the past five years, I’ve been doing that tirelessly. And now, I’ve finali, nd you. I’m just so happy.”
Successfully unlocked!
As Arthur spoke, he kept approaching Camila. Camila, let me give youre hug, okay?”
Arthur was a master of acting, and his display of snot and tears easily fooled many who didn’t know the full story.
The guests only knew that Camila was adopted by the Stuard family from a Sancho orphanage. They had assumed she was abandoned because her parents didn’t like her.

They never expected the truth to be like this.
“So, Ms. Stuard wasn’t abandoned by her parents but kidnapped by traffickers. That’s horrifying.”
“Yeah, poor girl. I can’t imagine going through something so horrible right after being born.”
“Honestly, I think her parents are the ones who suffered the most. They waited so long for their daughter, only to have her stolen by those traffickers. No wonder they felt heartbroken.”
“I think the Stuard family should do the right thing and give her back to her parents.”
“I agree. After all, the Stuard family has only had her for a little over a month, and the bond isn’t that deep yet. They should just give her back quickly.”
The guests were completely swept up in Arthur’s acting. Most of them sided with him, and some even pulled out their phones to record this.
Arthur was secretly overjoyed by the growing commotion. He thought, ‘So what if the Stuard family is powerful? They couldn’t withstand the pressure of public opinion.
‘As long as these fools believed my story, I’m sure the Stuard family wouldn’t be able to hold onto Camila for much longer.‘
Arthur was determined to revive the Jackson family. He turned to Harrison and Irene, and then suddenly bowed deeply.
He said, “Mr. and Mrs. Stuard, please give me back my daughter. She’s my everything. You might not know this, but my wife and I have always dreamed of reuniting with our daughter.
“Since Camila was stolen, I’ve had severe depression and been on medication for five years. Now that I know she’s my daughter, I’ve stopped taking my meds. If you return her to me, I’ll do anything for you.”
Arthur’s performance was so convincing that anyone unaware of his true nature might have been moved to tears. If acting were his profession, he would undoubtedly be crowned the king of the silver screen.
The surrounding crowd was completely taken in by his act, while Camila, who knew all too well the depths of his malice, stared at him with indifference. Harrison and Irene also stared at him with mocking smiles.
Harrison sneered and said, “You’re saying Camila was kidnapped by traffickers at birth, huh?”
Arthur nodded. “Yes, that’s right.”
After all, no one had seen him take the child back then, so he felt completely secure in his lie.
“And you also claim to love your daughter deeply, right?” Harrison said.
Arthur said, “Of course. Camila is my daughter. How could I not love her?”
The smile on Harrison’s lips grew wider. He raised his hand and snapped his fingers. “Well then, let’s see just how much Mr. Jackson cares about his daughter.”
As his words fell, the screen in the room suddenly lit up. The footage showed a VIP ward. On the bed lay Belinda, who had just given birth and was so weak that she had fallen into a deep sleep.
Next to Belinda was a crib, where Camila rested peacefully, sleeping.
At that moment, Arthur crept into the ward, his movements sneaky and deliberate. His eyes held not a trace of affection for Camila. Instead, he kept sneering.
He gently picked up Camila and left the ward without Belinda noticing a thing.
Arthur’s face turned pale, his eyes widening in panic as he stammered, “This is fake. Shut it off!”
Arthur lunged for the remote, but the security guards pinned him down tightly.
The screen abruptly shifted to a scene at the orphanage. In the dead of night, Arthur was shown abandoning the newborn Camila at the doorstep.
Looking down at the baby with a disdainful gaze, he sneered. “If you weren’t useful to me, I would have thrown you in the trash.
“When you’re older, if your kidney matches Agnes‘, it will go to her.”
After saying those cruel words, Arthur let out a cold snort, got into his car, and drove away.
Arthur’s heart sank. He knew he was fucked up.
After watching the clips, the guests turned to Arthur, their sympathy replaced by disgust and anger.
“It turned out everything he said earlier was a lie. He just wanted to use public opinion to pressure the Stuard family.”
“And he manipulated us like pawns for his plan.”
“I’ve never seen anyone so despicable. Arthur, you’re a disgrace to your family.”
As they hurled accusations at Arthur, Belinda arrived. Without hesitation, she stormed up to him and slapped him twice.

Harrison and Irene froze. While they disliked Belinda, they couldn’t deny that she was also a victim in this whole thing. They turned to Camila simultaneously, “Carila, do you want to go home with your mother?”
