Mistaken Marriage, Unexpected Love

“Shall we find a place to talk?” Camila asked.

Jaylen agreed without hesitation. After all, there was something he had to ask her.

They decided to head towards the small garden behind the hospital. The environment there was quiet enough for them to have a_ proper conversation.

“There’s something that I’d like to ask you. Please answer honestly,” Jaylen began.

“Is there a way that my mother can forego the operation?” As soon as he asked this, Jaylen looked straight into Camila’s eyes.

“No,” Camila answered, shaking her head firmly.

“You see, my father has already passed away, and my mother is the only family that I have left. She’s very important to me. Sometimes, I don’t want her to discipline me, but deep down, I know she’s just doing it for my own sake,” Jaylen said. This was the first time he had allowed himself to be vulnerable and shared to other people what was going on in his mind.

Camila empathized with his predicament and said, “But if you want to have a longer time with your mother, your best choice is to have this operation. You must’ve heard about Josiah’s reputation when you came here, right? I think you can trust him.” Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

Jaylen kept staring at Camila’s face, as if trying to study her expression.

This made Camila uncomfortable. She looked away and said, “I still have work to do. I’m leaving now.”

But before she could stand up and turn around, Jaylen grabbed her wrist.

“Can you stay with me for a while?”

Camila was adamant.

“I still have work to do.”

She tried shaking off his hand, but he wouldn’t loosen his grip.

When he saw a man coming towards them not far away, he further tightened his hold on her.

Suddenly, he pulled Camila into his arms!

For a few seconds, Camila was stunned. She pushed Jaylen away as soon as she snapped back to her senses

“What’s wrong with you?” she scolded, her brows furrowed.

Why did he suddenly hug her?

She was livid!

Who did he think she was?

Meanwhile, the person who was coming over couldn’t see Camila’s expression since her back was turned.

The only thing he could see was the annoying smile on Jaylen’s face “I’m sorry,” Jaylen apologized, his voice almost sounding like a whisper.
