Chapter 408
There was a Lot she wanted to say, but she did not know where to start. She was too ashamed to say it. Camila did not push Laura. She patiently waited for her to open up to her.
She understood that the other woman needed tto organize her thoughts and tell someone what really happened between her and Forrest.
For a while, only the ticking of the clock could be heard in the room. Tpassed by.
“Mila, you know how big and influential Forrest’s family is, right? You know there’s a huge gap between our social standings. When his mother found out we were dating, she cto confront me.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCamila inquired, “Did she ask you to break up with him? Did she offer you money to stay away from her son like rich mothers do in movies?”
Camila knew a little about Forrest’s family and could confirm that they were indeed wealthy. “What are you talking about?” Laura let out a chuckle, her gloomy mood brightening upon hearing Camila’s questions.
“She didn’t offermoney, but she toldher plans for Forrest’s future. She said she wanted her daughter-in-law to be someone who could help his son with his standing in the family. At that time, she had taken fancy to the daughter of the president of the Yework Group. Considering her family history, she was, without a doubt, the most suitable candidate to becForrest's wife. You may not know this, but Forrest has a brother. They share the sfather, but they have different mothers. His brother has always wanted more of the family’s inheritance, and that’s why Forrest's mother wanted a daughter-in-law with credentials, not a nobody like me. The thought of Forrest’s half-brother snatching the family fortune from her son terrified her.

| didn’t tell him about this because | didn’t want him and his mother to fight because of me. Besides, | think his mother only did that because she loves him very much. Do you understand now why | did what | did, Mila?”
Camila was at a loss for words and could not respond immediately. Her thoughts were all over the place, and she felt overwhelmed.
If this happened to her, she would have no idea what to do.
She was sure that Laura had thought things through.
Therefore, there was no way Camila could argue that she was being unfair.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe was wondering about one thing, though. Were the choices made for Forrest in the nof love the best ones for him? After all, only he could tell what was best for him, right?
In any case, Camila was merely an observer.
She could not tell Forrest about this without Laura’s permission.
“Don’t worry. | won't tell Forrest about this. I'll let you decide how you want to solve this.”
“There is nothing to solve, Mila. Once this relationship ends, it’s over,” Laura stated.
“What about you?” Laura still Loved Forrest, and Camila knew that.
“lll end things with him. When | meet the right person in the future, I'll get married, have kids, and live a simple, normal life.”
She and Forrest were from two different worlds. They were destined to be apart.
