Chapter 129 Shifting the me
L cried out, “Is it all my fault? I shouldn’t have married Miles and you shouldn’t have kicked Cam out
of the house. All these years, I’ve done the most, so all the me is on me. Cam spent her life in
luxury overseas for seven years. Then, she starts going up against our family the moment shees
back. She’s only back to seek revenge. I’m the first one, and you’re next. Has she ever been kind to
you?”
Gael did not make a sound. I don’t think she’s ever been kind to me. She even asked me who I was
today. What an unfilial child. But thinking about it, when have I ever been kind to her? I hit her when we
first met. That was probably when I hurt her, right?
When Ben arrived home, he received a p across the face from Lara and was heavily interrogated.
“What’s wrong with you? Huh? Who’s that woman? Do you know that it was all captured on camera?
What have you been up to these days?”
Cradling his face, he felt a dampness which he figured was blood from being scratched by Lara’s freshly-
done manicure.
However, he did not dare to moan in pain. He still felt perplexed. Did Aunt Lara find out about that video?
Her following words confirmed his suspicions. “You’re a superstar now-the talk of the town. Just look at
what thoseizens are saying about you. They say you picked up a worn-out shoe and treated it as
treasure! Not only does she have a husband, but she also has a child. Why do you like that woman?”
He was dumbfounded and his legs went weak. “Aunt Lara, hear me out. I’m also looking into who took
that short video. I was being careful the whole time. That was at the airport restroom. There was no one
else around…” He looked up into her eyes and his voice gradually grew smaller until it became inaudible.
She was staring at him with a face full of anger. “Do you still need to look into it? Besides Cam, who
else could it have been?” His head snapped up. “Cam? Again? The reason Jessica and I broke upst
time was also because of her!” Lara narrowed her eyes threateningly. “What did you say? You and
Jessica broke up already?” At this point, he was too afraid to conceal anything. He revealed to herThis content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
everything that happened at Ruby Pce.
Unsurprisingly, he brushed off his own mistakes and highlighted what Cam had
done. He ended in a stern voice as he said, “I managed to appease Jessica but Cam ruined
everything. She even sent Jessica that short video which led Jessica to break up with me!”
Lara quickly put the pieces together. “Does Cam have something against L?” Nodding his head, he
told her everything he heard from L. After muttering to herself for a bit, she said, “You’re saying she
had her son with a beggar?”
Ben was not expecting that question from her and just nodded his head quizzically. “That’s what she told
me!”
A frown appeared on her forehead. So the child isn’t Ss’s? Why did the old man investigate him then?
Ss has helped Cam over and over again. He can’t possibly have fallen in love with a woman who
had another man’s child. Where did it all go wrong? “Do you know Cam too, Aunt Lara?” Ben asked.
“She’s the doctor who treated Old Man Nn back to health!” A look of disdain shed before his eyes.
“She’s the root of all our problems. We just have to deal with her and it will all be fine, right?” Lara sat
down on the sofa and red at him. “Don’t you know how much she means to Ss now? How can we
mess with her that easily?”
