Chapter 25 Love Affair
Lyla sneered, âWow. All men are the same; youâll never know how to appreciate what you have. The harder it is to get your hands on something, the better you think it is, donât you? If Camila really liked you, do you think she could have given birth to someone elseâs child? Do you think she would have broken up with you that easily? Sheâs just trying to drive us apart now. Did she say that she still thinks about you after all these years? If it werenât for me, you two could have been together by now? Iâm telling you. She just canât wait for you to divorce me, then stab you in the back!â Miles shot her a displeased look. âDonât try to predict her actions with that filthy mind of yours. Sheâs not as evil as you!â After he said that, he got up and went straight into the room. Lyla clenched her jaw in resentment. âIâm no good anymore, huh?
Your Camila is great. Sheâs the best! Go to her then. See if she still wants you.â She stared at the shut door and started to howl with laughter. The door to the room opened once again. Miles walked out with a quilt in his arms and turned into the guest room. With a bang, the door slammed shut.
âMiles Ryan!â
She stood there in astonishment with her finger pointed at him but was at a loss for words.
She realized that there were no words that could describe the fury she was feeling. Suddenly, her lips curled up into a contemptuous smile. So what if Camila is great? Can they still be together? Of course not! He only has me! Even in death, he will die with me! She sat down on the sofa with a blank look on her face and wiped her tears away. Their marriage could not be broken off that easily.
The next day, South announced to Camila that he wanted to go to school. Stunned, she asked, âDoes your leg not hurt anymore?â Without batting an eye, he said, âI think I got better after eating the apple Uncle Silas peeled for me.â
She was speechless. She did not know why South liked Silas that much. After she sent him to school, she came back and went straight to 4S Shop. Landonâs flight was at three in the afternoon. If everything went smoothly, she should
have enough time to buy a car! When she entered, her eyes swept over the area once, then she strode toward a red Ferrari. Because she looked like someone who could afford it, a young chap quickly approached her. After he greeted her politely, he started to introduce the performance of the car to her.
She had circled the car twice as she was listening. The body of the Ferrari was wedge-shaped with a low front and a high end. It gave off an intimidating look which she really liked. The front tires, car door, and back tires were all different, but they fit together holistically. The lines on the car were sleek. Satisfied, she nodded her head. âThis one!â Just then, a man approached the same car with a woman in his arms.
The man was wearing a royal blue shirt and a pair of black suit trousers. He had average looks and seemed like a disreputable person. The woman in his arms was fair-skinned with big eyes and a small mouth. Her long brown hair contrasted with her palm-sized face. She embodied societyâs standards of a young beautiful lady. The woman looked up and asked, âWhat do you think of this one, Ben? Red means joy. We can drive it after we get married.â He boasted, âItâs up to you!â Instead of squealing, she circled the car to have a look. âI like it. This one it is!â The man gave the salesperson his card at the speed of light. âWeâll take this one!â The salesperson was put in a tight spot. He looked at Camila and asked, âExcuse me, Miss; are you sure you want this?â Camila nodded and handed her card over as well. âYes!
Iâll pay now!â The salesperson made his way over and explained carefully, âSir, that lady over there came and looked at this car before you. We will have to make the deal with her first. If itâs possible, please wait for a bit and we will have someone bring over another car.â Ben frowned. âHow long?â
