Camille clenched her fists, thinking that the maids only had the audacity to be rude to her because they were working under Aurora. “Good morning, Ms. Chime. It’s cold out here. Please come inside.” Aurora’s maid, Talia Byrd, heard the commotion and came out. Camille took a deep breath to calm herself down. Then, she turned around and smiled. “Good morning. Has Aurora gotten up?”
“She’s up and waiting to have breakfast with you.” Talia smiled.
When they entered the living room, Roman sneered as he came out from behind the wall.
Was Bernard good at enduring? It was evident that he preferred men. Even when he was drugged, he showed no interest in women.
Roman believed Camille was dumb for having a crush on Bernard.
“Mom, I’m here to have breakfast with you.” He turned around and entered the living room.
Aurora was entertaining Camille at the dining table. Seeing Roman’s arrival, she greeted happily, “Good morning, Roman.”
Then, she asked Talia to prepare a set of cutlery for Roman.
“When I passed by the flower shop, I saw the beautiful carnations in bloom, so I brought you a bouquet.”
Roman took out the pink carnations hidden behind his back and gave them to Aurora.
His way of making people happy worked well for her. Carnations were often given as gifts to mothers, and they satisfied Aurora greatly too. “Thank you, my good boy. Go wash your hands before having breakfast.” Aurora smiled as she received the flowers and handed them to Talia. Roman went into the kitchen to wash his hands before coming out. He sat next to Aurora, opposite to Camille.
He smiled at Camille and suddenly said, “Ms. Chime, you didn’t get along well with Granduncle Bernard last night, right?”
Camille had just pushed this issue out of her thoughts. When Roman brought it up again, she appeared unhappy.
“Don’t be rude, Roman.” Aurora pretended to be angry with Roman before asking Camille, “Did Uncle Bernard do anything to you?”
When Camille recalled last night’s embarrassment, she forced a smile and said, “Mr. Killian is a gentleman. We didn’t reach that point. He understands and respects my wishes.”
“You don’t have to make excuses. Granduncle Bernard doesn’t like women at all. He likes men!” Roman said bluntly.
Camille’s smile instantly stiffened.
If Bernard really liked men, she wouldn’t be so embarrassed. But that wasn’t the truth!
As the daughter of the Chime family, she was a genius who had been admired by others since she was little. She had never experienced such humiliation.
“Shut up, Roman. You know nothing!”
Aurora pretended to reprimand
Roman and then told Camille, “Please don’t take Roman’s
ignorance to heart. If my uncle really
liked men, he wouldn’t be having affairs with other women in O Norburgh.”
Not only was Camille not comforted, but she was even more distressed.
“We acted a little too hastily last night. I was negligent in that regard. I’ll try a different approach next time. Don’t worry. My dad, grandmother, and I like you. You’ll be Uncle Bernard’s wife for sure,” Aurora
promised.
Camille’s complexion improved a little. “I’m aware. Thank you. I’ll give you a body examination later.”
Aurora was overjoyed. She had gone to great lengths to win Camille over so that she would treat her. That was the most important thing.
She was finally going to have a biological child of her own!
