CHAPTER 83Some Months Later..Camila VincentoCamila sat on the plump sofa, her feet immersed in a small basin filled with warm water. She was currently getting a massage from masseur and boy did it feel like heaven. No wonder she was known as one of the best masseurs in the country.“I'm done with your shoulders Mrs Vincento..” The masseur spoke and walked around the sofa and crouched in front of Camila. “I'll massage underneath your tummy, it's really relieving for pregnant women.” The masseur placed her palms on Camila's slightly swollen tummy and gently massaged it creating a new sense of relief for the latter. Camila smiled brightly with her eyes closed, enjoying the massuer’s talent but her enjoyment was soon cut short when a squirming voice resounded loudly in the large living area.“Who's gonna soon be an aunt? Me! Who's gonna play with some children soon? Me! Who's gonna spoil them? Me of course!” Rosella sang with zero rhythm. Her voice sounding like that of grinding machi
CHAPTER 84Leonardo Vincento“You think I'm taking my role as a father lightly? You think I'm not worried about my child? Diane was released because her time in prison expired, I'm not above the law there's nothing I can do, and about the safety thing? I have more than twenty guards watching you everyday, I just didn't tell you so that you wouldn't feel awkward when you're in public, but if this is how you feel, fine.”“Leo..” Camila began to feel bad for the way she had reacted but the latter ignored her, grabbed a pillow and walked towards the door. He suddenly halted and spoke over his shoulder. “Don't bother coming downstairs, have a goodnight’s sleep.” And with this he left.Camila slumped to bed and frustratedly ran her fingers through her hair. “What is wrong with me?!”NEXT DAY..Camila woke up the next day was saddened not seeing Leonardo beside her. As an apology for what she had said, she decided to prepare a meal and surprise him at the office.•••Arriving at the company,
Camila Russell. The maids dabbed Camila's face one last time with a light brown powder, as she stared calmly at the mirror in front of her. The mirror was super long that it was almost the same height as her. Marveled at how she looked because of the sophisticated makeup applied on her face, Camila couldn't help but wonder what the occasion was really about. Her parents went as far as sending some maids to the back house where she was made to stay to doll her up. Not to mention that she was also invited to the main building where all their classy maids stayed with her parents and elder sister. She had long wondered why even the maids get to live in the main building while she has to be locked up in the back house where the sun hardly shines on. Now out of the blue, her cruel parents sent her an invite to visit the main building and even went through the trouble of assigning their most experienced maids to dress her up. By merely considering all these
Chapter twoOlivia Russell"Olivia, what's wrong with you? I thought we've spoken about this already. That man is no good for you. Haven't you heard about how he treats ladies? He only moves around with his worthless girlfriend and no one else!" Mrs. Delmour's voice rang with concern."I don't effing care, Mom! You and Dad claim to love me more, but you both still went ahead and got that little brat married before me, and not just to anyone, but to that fine piece of human meat," Olivia shouted in frustration. She had been holding onto this resentment for far too long.Mrs. Delmour shook her head, struggling to understand her daughter's frustration. "Baby, it's an arranged marriage, and your dad and I will find you someone more attractive as a husband, so don't worry, okay? We've got everything sorted out for you already.""You better keep your promise, okay? It's already disgraceful enough that that brat is getting married before me. I don't want the whole world to know she's gettin
CHAPTER 3Camila Russell.Camila stood still crying till Mr. Lucas, who was now her father-in-law, approached her."Take it easy on yourself. The driver is waiting for you outside; he'll be taking you to your husband's house," Mr. Lucas said. He also began walking away, but Camila was fast enough to follow him closely from behind.The moment she got outside, her new father-in-law saw to it that she was tucked into the car. The driver quickly got behind the wheel, and Camila hesitated for a moment before getting into the car. As it pulled away from the court, she couldn't help but think about her new life as Leonardo's wife. The thoughts of an unfamiliar future weighed heavily on her mind.The drive to her new home was quiet, the driver sparing no words. Camila kept her gaze out of the window, observing the unfamiliar surroundings. The scenery changed from the city to a more suburban area with lush greenery and beautiful houses. When they finally stopped in front of a huge white mansio
Chapter 4Camila Russell.Camila woke up on the other side of the bed, probably because of the way she slept, which caused her to wake up with a banging headache. Despite the throbbing in her head, she knew she had a lot to accomplish that day. A new chapter in her life was unfolding, and she was determined to make the most of it.She decided to start her day on the right foot, beginning with a hearty breakfast. Camila made sure to take the medication that Nadia, her caring nanny, had provided to alleviate the headache. The small pill worked its magic, and her body gradually began to feel better.Today's schedule was planned down to the minute. Camila had an important appointment with a realtor to explore potential locations for her coffee shop. She had been diligently saving up for this dream, a small coffee shop that she could call her own. It wasn't easy, considering the constraints her family imposed on her daily allowance. But Camila was determined to make her dream a reality.Ev
CHAPTER 5 Rosella Vincento."Oh my God! I never knew I would ever see you facially!" Rosella said in excitement, her eyes wide with surprise as she spotted Camila. Camila, on the other hand, smiled lightly but felt a little nervous."I'm Rosella. What about you?!" Rosella asked, her smile widening."Camila," Camila muttered, her voice tinged with shyness."You have such a nice name. Why don't we link up and become…" Rosella's enthusiasm was cut short by a familiar voice."Rosella!" A voice called out from behind. It was Rosella's course mate, Beldin, waiting for her in front of their car."I'll be right there!" Rosella responded before turning back to Camila."We'll talk better some other time. You live at the white mansion, right? Expect my visit anytime soon," Rosella said before she hurriedly left to join her course mate in the car. They drove away instantly.Camila felt a bit of relief as she watched them go. She was intrigued by Rosella's vivacious personality bu
Chapter 6Camila Vincento. Shocked but still with a calm expression and composure, Camila shuffled herself out of Vince's grip, with tiny shades of guilt and naiveness building up in her. She stood straight not being able to see her estranged husband in the eyes. While Vince wondered why she suddenly became cautious and accountable. Leonardo on the other hand was done, wasting time giving them questionable look as he spoke to Camila's hearing but in a way that it looked like he was sending an unforseen message to confused Vince. "Change into something soothing and meet me in the car". His stern voice came, then he turned and made his way to his car. The driver opened the backseat for him and he went in. "I'm so sorry Vince but we'll have to postpone I'll project work till next time. I have something important to meet up with". Camila said in a pleading tone to gasped Vince, who just nodded slowly still not getting all that just happened. "I can see that. So we'll be meeting some
