M.I N.E endless Love

Chapter 88: Camilla’s Return



Two days later, Steve Anderson called Camilla aside after dinner. He pleaded with her to forgive Martin and his family. They really have hurt her be he knew it.

But for the sake of family ties, she should let it go. They were still pleading that afternoon and sending messages to him to please with her.

Martin’s mother was the only sister he has. He had grown up with her like she was his Aunt. When their parents died, it was her who played the part of a mother to him.

He couldn’t just feel comfortable to let her son ror in jail with his family. They are ready to apologise to her over and over again for what they did to her.

As for the company, he would compensate her back in properties and money which would be equal to the sum of that entire company.

Eduardo had told him that Camilla bought the company and now, owns the entire company. He wants to gift it back to Martin.

Camilla objected. She said she could let her father release them from the police custody but not the company. She isn’t going to compromise about that.

The company and their meager wealth was what made them to be shoulder high. She wants to break their wings and not give them a chance to look down on anyone again.

She can’t just let me go like that. Her life had simply being incomplete without Rodrigo. Her kids couldn’t even know who their father is, that’s not good for a normal kid.

When Camilla returned to her room, she logged onto her computer, and just stared at Rodrigo’s photos. The latter hardly smile and when he does, it’s difficult to see his teeth.

His natural facial look is expressionless. And she had known him to maintain that. She held the photos and kept staring at it. She ended drifting off to sleep with Rodrigo’s pictures staring at her.

The next day when she returned from the company, Martin and his family were waiting to apologise to her. She simply glance at them and walked away.

She doesn’t know why her family won’t allow her execute a ‘pay back time’ on these people who have hurt her so much. It was glaring to all that Camilla disdained them.

Emma stared at her in regrets. She really wanted Camilla dead not knowing that she’s a Family member. But how did she know that? Who told her about the poisoning and how did she escape from prison?

She suddenly went missing and despite the securities, no one noticed her when she left. This is something that sends goosebumps down her spine.

“If I spare you from imprisonment, it means you will forever remain grateful to my daughter. And henceforth, she’s your boss and you all must be in subordination to her.

If anything goes wrong, or she’s threatened, I will not spare you nor will I leave you an intact corpse.

Martin was already aware that his company was taken over by Camilla. If it were someone else, it is certain that his cousin Eduardo would help him get it back, but now, it was Eduardo’s sister who took it.

Taking that company from him was similar to hitting him where it hurts the most. She totally crippled him and turned him into a helpless man.

Martin nodded when Steve Anderson said they were going to be working for Camilla. He added and said, if they feel too big to do what he just said, they could leave peacefully and he would gladly pay for their flight.

But Martin Knows, going back was not an option if he wasn’t getting his company back. Where was he going to start from? He almost had a partial stroke that would have left him bedridden and in a vegetable state.

Whatever he has to do, he would gladly do it and live his life peacefully. Ella accepted too and Emma had no option than to be by her parent’s decision.

A month came and passed and Camilla was taking her flight the next morning to City A. She was returning with Sara.

The latter was a bit better than before. But that smart and elegant Sara has been exchanged with a weak, sickling woman.

Emma helped Camilla put her things in the car. She was returning with her parents, they had to work for Camilla the new owner of the company.

Susan Anderson and Steve promised to pay her a visit soon. If she needs more hands and bodyguards, she was free to make a request.

Camilla said okay. Though she had sent her bodyguards and security personnels were already there, she knew she might not be needing additional security officers for herself and the company as a whole.

As Camilla got into her car and the chauffeur drove her towards the airport, Emma got their suitcases into the car trunk, they were leaving as well.

Jared and Mira arrived at City A before Camilla and Sara did. It was an interval of a hour between the both parties. Jared drove to the airport to bring his mother and sister home.

When Camilla stepped out of the plane, she took a deep breath. This is the city she grew up knowing as her country home. Her childhood memories lies here and the people she first knew as her loved ones, hailed from that city.

She looked around as she awaits her luggage. Sara was all smiles. It’s great to be home again. She was in a terrible state when Jared flown her out, but she had returned alive and healthier.

Soon they got their luggage and went out of airport. Just then she saw Jared and Mira waiting for them. On sighting Mira, Camilla immediately noticed that she was pregnant.

That it. That explains why they got married so sudden without anyone witnessing their union. Jared had the girl pregnant.

“Camilla, Mum” Jared chimed, walking over and embracing his mother and then Camilla. He got their luggage and Mira was going to get the other, but Camilla said no.

“A pregnant woman shouldn’t carry heavy luggage” she said and looked away, walking past them to put the things in the car.

Mira was dazed and stood speechless. What surprised her the most was that Camilla simply walk away without waiting to see her facial expression after her words.

Her words sounded like she was concern but it was genuine. Her motive was evidently visible, she was avoiding Mira as much as she can.

“It’s okay Mirabel. Let’s get to the car” Sara lighten the awkwardness in the air. She was the eldest and the mother to her children and daughter in law. She tapped Mirabel on her shoulder and tucked her to come along.

Jared nodded to Mira and she started walking behind Sara. Jared didn’t say anything. He knew the following days was going to be difficult for him to balance his relationship with both his wife and sister.

As they got to the car, Jared slipped behind the steering and Mirabel sat in the copilot seat. Sara joined Camilla in the passenger seat as they started their journey home.

Camilla was looking out through the car screen. It was nice to see the City again. Her kids are going to be two years soon and she would bring them to that city to celebrate it.

“Why didn’t you come with Jade and Jude?” Jared asked, glanced briefly at Camilla from the rear view mirror.

“When Dad and Mum will be coming, they would come along together” Camilla answered not sparing Jared a glance at all.

Mira silently felt her belly was sweet. She would get to see her niece and nephew soon. It would be great to set her eyes on Rodrigo’s kids.

But she dare not show that she’s excited. She doesn’t know how or what Camilla would feel or say if she saw her feel happy. Hence she bit down her lower lip, preventing her smile from showing.

“They are definitely going to miss their mother,” Jared commented still. He just wants to create a good atmosphere in the car. Everyone appeared to be tensed up and it’s simply because of the beef between Camilla and Mirabel.

“They would be fine. They have a family that loves them. At least they filled the vacuum that the absence of a father would have created in their lives..” Camilla said and glared at Mirabel from where she was seated as if she was the reason why her kids are not with their dad.

“Everything will be alright again. You, the kids and Rodrigo. You are family and I believe things will fall into place…” Jared chipped in and Camilla replied “In this life or in the next?”

Camilla was pleased and settled into the Mansion. It was as large as Rodrigo’s Mansion. She sighed, this was not thatvyear she bought her family a small house that Rodrigo latter demolished.

It was way better than that house then. She learnt that Rodrigo got Jared another Mansion in place of the one he destroyed and he rejected it.

That’s thoughtful of him. Jared detest him so much except that now, he got himself involved with his sister and got married to her.

There were two master bedroom, Jared occupies one and his mother was in one. But now that Camilla is back, they had to leave.

But as if Sara knew what was going to happen, she asked that Camilla live in the second master bedroom while she moved to one of the rooms downstairs.

“You don’t have to leave mother, Mira and I are leaving. It was Camilla’s room at first. We are leaving already” Jared declared and Sara said no.

“Take me to the room next to the children room. I will prefer a room closer to my kids when they arrive” Camilla bdevlated amidst Jared’s objection.

She stood up and walked over to the kitchen. She really wants to walk around and see how the building was.

The servants brought juice and offered them. As soon as Camilla stood up, Sara came closer to the couple and whispered “I need you both to stay together with us. I have to ensure that Camilla forgives and accept Mirabel as her sister in-law”

She shrugged and Jared smiled. His mother was so smart and knew being together would eventually makes Camilla’s anger gradually fade away.

“Thank you mother” Mirabel said and embraced Sara. Her eyes went moist and a lone tears fell off her eyes. She sniffled and sighed silently.

“Shhshhh, I don’t have interest in seeing your tears dear”She teased and Mirabel nodded. Just then Camilla returned and the servants led her to the room.

The next few days, everything was normal. Camilla went to the office but let Jared remained the President. She claimed to come around and see how things were going.

The company now had a little more than a hundred employees and Jared preside over them. When she went to the company, she sat among the employees while Jared held a meeting.

She suddenly couldn’t believe this was her brother. He looked elegant and has this aura that portrayed him as the president.

He was talking with an expressionless face and that reminds her of Rodrigo. He was always like that back then when she was his secretary.

As soon as he stepped into the threshold of the company, she would suddenly feel like he was a different person. His personality changed, his aura dominates and his presence carries this unexplainable intimidating Dominion.

When he gets to the company, he would hardly talk and when he does, he says few words and great actions follows. He would always have this expressionless face that she would wonder if he was the same person she woke up with that morning.

She didn’t tell Jared anything about why she hasn’t ordered the company she took from Martin Kim. Her father had told her to return the company to his nephew. He would compensate her back.

As the meeting came to an end and Jared stood up, Camilla walked out together with him and shook his hand “you amaze me Jared” she complimented and the latter smiled and thanked her.

Two weeks later Camilla’s parents arrived. Luke and Katie came along and one would think they were Jude and Jade’s parents.

It was a great time with the whole family. The kids were happy to see their mother again and Camilla hugged and kissed them.

Jared and Mira were not in when the Anderson’s arrived. They had gone to attend a friend’s dinner party and arrived late.

When they returned, the kids had gone to sleep. But Mira couldn’t keep her curiosity to check and went to the children room to see them.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

They were sleeping peacefully and she stared at them. The boy was definitely Jude and he took a striking semblance with her brother, Rodrigo.

The girl was Camilla. They both have their kids take after them. How she wished Rodrigo could see them. He would be happy to set his eyes on them.

She took out her phone and took some some snapshot. Immediately she sent them to Rodrigo’s WeChat.

She came closer and touched their hair. A lone tears fell from her eyes and dropped in the little boy’s chin. He smiled and Mumbled “mummy”.

Mira smiled. She suspect he was dreaming and she bent over, kissed him and went to Jade and kissed her Chubby cheeks and just then Camilla walked in.

She saw Mira kissed her daughter and she frowned. They are family and she’s their aunt in every sense of the word but she doesn’t want Rodrigo or any of the Campbell’s around her kids.

“Who said you could come in here?” Camilla asked, walking over and standing, towering over Mirabel.

“Who says, I do. Have you got any problems with that?” Mira replied, cleaning her tears and looking up at Camilla.

“Yes, I’ve got a hell of problems with you being here. These are my kids and I do not permit you to come anywhere around them” Camilla snapped at her.

Mirabel stood up, sniffled and looked at Camilla eye ball to eye ball. “They are your kids, that’s true. You are their mother, and that’s absolutely right too.

But they are Rodrigo’s kids as well. They are my family, my blood and the heir to the entire Campbell’s empire. And you know that what I said is also true right?” Mirabel retorted back at her.
