NovelEnglishChapter 56
Not wanting to waste her breath on this woman, Camila turned around to leave.
“Wait! Mila, did you chere for money? You've already married into the Johnston family. How can you still need money from us? Besides, your mother is already draining all of our funds.”
Hearing that, Camila stopped in her tracks and pursed her Lips unhappily. Trudy was just a mistress. Why did she act as though she was the hostess of this house?
“Marvin hasn't divorced my mother yet. If he refuses to pay the medical fees, I'll sue him.” “Why, you little”
Trudy was about to curse Camila, but when she saw someone entering the room, she immediately put on a kind expression and softened her voice.

Noticing the abrupt change in Trudy’s disposition, Camila knew that Marvin must be home. She turned around to find him standing behind her.
“| need money.” Camila went straight to the point.
Marvin’s expression darkened. “Now that you've married into the Johnston family, you’ve gotten bolder. | heard you saying that you’d sue me.”
Camila didn’t flinch.
“My mother needs money for her surgery. You agreed to give her one million.”
“| don’t have any money now:
” Marvin started to say.
“The Johnston family gave you two hundred million as dowry. Don’t tellyou don’t have money.
““Dad, I’m your daughter, and mom is still your wife. | hope you'll keep your promise. Otherwise, I’m not afraid to take you to court.” As she spoke, Camila locked eyes with Marvin firmly.
“Are you threatening me?” Marvin raised his voice in anger.
“Growing up, you never paid attention tobecause I’m a girl. You only used me. I’m also a person. If you pushtoo hard, | have no choice but to fight back.” Marvin was stunned by the fierce determination in her eyes. Thinking about how he could still use her to get to the Johnstons, he eventually gave in.

“Shut up! | know what I’m doing.” Marvin went to the study and pulled out his checkbook from the drawer. After writing , he paused and wrote “5” next to it.
After filling in the details, he handed the check to Camila and said, “Here’s 1.5 million dollars. Take it and buy yourself some clothes. You're a Johnston now, yet you still wear such shabby clothes. No wonder Isaac doesn’t like you. Speaking of which, doesn’t he give you money?”
Camila stared at the check in her hands and felt a Lump form in her throat. After all, she was keenly aware that her father was just acting nice because he wanted to use her.
It hurt to know that her biological father only saw her as a means to an end.
“Don’t you know how | was able to marry into the Johnston family? How could you ask if Isaac givesmoney? He wants me dead!”
Marvin sneered impatiently.
