Chapter 244 He Is Just Her Family
Silas smiled and gestured at South to call him. “I’ll leave now.” On the other hand, Camila could already see George Parsons standing by the community gates. He was a slender man wearing a dark blue coat, resembling a model. “George…” She called him while running. He came forward and clicked his tongue. “Why are you running?” “I couldn’t let you wait.” She looked at him playfully before reaching out for the luggage in his hands. “I’ll help to carry it for you!” “No need for that. Which floor do you live on?” “The 59th floor.” “That’s a rather high floor. No wonder it took you so long to get down.” “Yeah. South just woke up, so I was coaxing him.” When she said those words, the corners of her lips twitched a few times due to her guilt. If he knows that I was actually coaxing a man in his twenties, I wonder if he’ll spew his blood out. George naturally had no idea what Camila thought in her heart. “Does South still need coaxing? He is such a good kid.” She awkwardly explained, “He just woke up, so he threw a little tantrum with me.” “What happened to you in the past few days?” She was still hesitant on whether to tell him, so he added, “I’m already here. Are you still trying to lie to me?” “It’s nothing. I had a nightmare that night.” George glanced at her. “Would you call me just because of a nightmare?” Camila took a deep breath. I really can’t hide anything from him. “Actually, it’s all fine now. That night, Lyla had kidnapped South, so my emotions were all jumbled up. During my sleep, I dreamed that she abused South and I was upset. I regretted that I didn’t listen to you back then and insisted on returning. At that moment, I couldn’t control my emotions, so I called you.”
Upon listening to her, George was taken aback. “South was kidnapped? Is he alright?” Camila replied, “He’s fine. He is a smart kid. When we went over to look for him, he had already escaped.” When they entered the elevator, he asked again, “How did he escape?” She could not hide anything from him, so she shared how South was able to contact the people in Will-o’-Wisp Headquarters.
After that, George let out a huge sigh of relief. “He is quite a smart kid; otherwise, the outcome would be devastating. Didn’t you teach that woman a lesson?”
“I did. Now, she is still in the hospital!” she responded. “You shouldn’t show mercy to a woman like her. How dare she lay her hands on a child!” His face darkened. She nodded her head. “She has to stay in the hospital for at least half a month!” However, George was still enraged. “Isn’t Lyla your half-sister? What about your dad? Didn’t you tell him? Look at what his favoritism has led to.” Camila smiled coldly while feeling miserable. “There are some people whose partiality is unreasonable. He is partial toward the person and not to the things that she has done.”
George suddenly felt upset, so he smiled and patted her shoulder. “You don’t need to feel sad about it. You also have someone who favors you. No matter what you do, I will always stand by your side.” Camila glanced at him and pouted her lips. “Don’t you favor me. I don’t want to be at the center of everyone’s attention. I didn’t get any benefits yet all my juniors have accused you of favoring me.” He squinted his eyes. “Don’t you feel guilty saying that?” “Not at all!” she grunted.
He then pointed at her head. “You are always the heartless one!” Camila laughed loudly. The two of them continued to talk in the elevator. However, Silas observed their entire interaction as he sat in the surveillance room. He leaned his back against the chair while feeling sore for some reason. Before George had arrived, he still felt confident about himself. Who cares if they knew each other for 7 years? In the end, she is still my girlfriend and he is just a family member to her, at most.
