Chapter 15
At the Walters’residence.
“What do you want from me? Luke asked as he walked in.
Helen took a sip of coffee and put down the magazine in her hand “Luke, come and sit here.”
Luke sat on the sofa, frowning.
Noticing her son’s expression, Helen asked with a smile, “Do you have something on your mind?”
“No.” Luke stopped frowning. “Valentine’s day is coming soon. I’m a little tired of preparing for the charity ball.”
“Well..” H
Helen knew that her son was lying.
“Luke, Mrs. Walter, have some juice Rachelle walked out of the kitchen with two glasses of fresh watermelon juice in her hands.
She put it in front of Luke and Helen and said with a sweet smile “It’s so hot now. This is good for summer. Luke, drink
some.”
“Put it there!” Luke said coldly.
Rachelle’s hand holding the glass froze there.
know what to
Helen took a sip and nodded with satisfaction. “Rachelle, go upstairs to see the dresses in my wardrobe. I don’t k wear for the party. I believe in your taste. Go ahead.”
“Yes, Mrs. Walter. Rachelle nodded and went upstairs.
“I plan to let you get engaged to Rachelle on Valentine’s day. Helen cut to the chase.
“What?” Luke raised his head and licked his lips irritably. “I don’t want to.
“It’s not up to you,” Helen said firmly.
Luke said indifferently, “Mom, when we were abroad, you allowed her to enter our house. I don’t even know her full name. Now, it’s also your idea that she joined the Leicester Hotel, and just don’t want to hurt your friend’s feelings. That’s all. If you insist on making me get engaged to her, you should know what I am going to do.”
Hearing her son’s words, Helen was a little angry. She closed her eyes and opened them again. She said slowly, “You’re 29 years old. Mom introduced you to girls, but you do not like them and never get around them. What do you want to do to
Tears welled up in Helen’s eyes for the first time. “Trevor has been engaged for several years. Although Ldon’t know why he hasn’t married Sarah yet, if he gives birth to a child with Sarah, your father will not care about your anymore. If Trevor is a stranger, it’s okay, but your father treats him very well I have to suspect that he is the illegitimate child of your father with that woman!*
She had been suspicious about this for so many years, so she hated Trevor even more. She absolutely couldn’t accept her husband cheating on her!
“I know what I’m doing. Luke stood up, walked out of the villa, and drove away at full speed.
“Mrs. Walter, I’m leaving now.” Rachelle ran downstairs in tears. She heard their conversation clearly
She ran out and drove her car back to the Leicester Hotel.

Chapter 15
She grabbed the steering wheel and drove on the highway. All she could think about was what had happened after they left the airport. Luke looked at Camille from the rearview mirror in the car. Why was that junior employee more important than her in Luke’s eyes? What the helli
Rachelle stared at the road. “Camille! Let’s wait and seel”
Now the busiest time during the dinner was approaching, and everyone in the Leicester Hotel’s restaurant was busy.
Camille put flowers on each table. Jenna got close to her and asked in a low voice, “What did Mr. Walter say to you? I stood far away from you and didn’t hear anything.”
“He told me…” Camille stopped at once. “I didn’t hear it either.
Kim, who was wiping the table legs, raised her head and gave Camille a weird look.
Camille felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Kim’s eyes. Kim was so close to her at that time, so she must have heard it.
Jenna innocently raised her chin and said, “I always feel that the way Mr. Walier looks at you is very strange
Camille’s heart skipped a beat.
The door of the restaurant was pushed open!
The sound of high–heels approaching was rapid. She turned around and saw Rachelle coming in in a hurry!
Rachelle stood in front of Camille with a long face. He pushed the vase, washed cleanly by Camille, and broke it into pieces.
ng with her?” she thought.
Camille was taken aback. “What’s wrong
Rachelle gripped his purse tightly with one hand and said to Camille, “Follow me!”
Rachelle turned around and walked to the rooftop of the restaurant.
“What’s wrong with her? Why is she looking for Camille?” Jenna asked in confusion.
Camille didn’t understand either. She looked at Rachelle’s back and followed her.
“Only she knows what she has done!” Kim continued to wipe the table with a cold face.
“Are you crazy?” Jenna squatted down to clean up the broken glass fragments. “My flowers, what a pity…”
The door of the rooftop was slammed shut behind Camille.
Looking at Rachelle’s back, Camille asked, “Excuse me, what can do for you?”
“Clap
Rachelle turned around and gave her a harsh slap.
“It’s all your fault!” Rachelle gritted her teeth.
Camille’s head was hit hard, and her fair face instantly turned red. Five fingerprints quickly appeared on her face. She closed her eyes and raised her hand to press the corner of her mouth.
She raised her head and looked at Rachelle. “Are you insane?”
“What’s wrong with me?” Rachelle raised his voice. “Don’t play dumb with me! Tell me! How did you seduce Steven? Did you speak ill of me in front of him? What did you say to him when you got out of the car after leaving the airport? Did you speak ill of me?

Chapter 15
Camille pressed the painful corner of her mouth. Her teeth hurt This woman was really strong.
“I didn’t say anything to him except to return his clothes. Why should I speak ill of you to him? He is not my father”
Camille was so angry that she burst into tears. She missed her father, who was a regret in her life forever.
In order to raise her son, Camille had to work hard to make money. People had to be humble when they were in a hard situation.
Rachelle’s position was higher than hers.
But the reality was not a drama. It was full of difficulties for Carle.
Rachelle was stunned and then realized that maybe she was too angry. Camille sent clothes to Luke and spoke to him for less than a minute. Perhaps she didn’t say anything bad about her, but… The way Luke looked at the woman was really
strange
“L… Rachelle wanted to apologize, but she didn’t open her mouth
Looking at her stubborn and apologetic look, Camille touched the corner of her mouth as if warning herself, I’m not qualified to have such an excellent man in my life. Don’t worry. Please hold on to the man you want.”
Rachelle was stunned by her words. It seemed that what she said was all for Rachelle’s good. How could it be
“Don’t give me that poor look…” Rachelle said with embarrassment.
Camille seemed to be able to read Rachelle’s mind and smiled bitterly. “I have to go. Bye.”
Step by step, Camille stepped down the steps, and the blood in her mouth tasted fishy.
In a trance, she remembered a slap ten years ago. It was from Trevor, But she didn’t cry. Her lips were broken, and she didn’t cry. She stared at Trevor, trying to keep his handsome appearance in her mind. Then she smiled brightly at him. When she turned around, tears fell with her back to him.
“Clap!” the slap almost made her dizzy.
With red eyes, Trevor said to her, “No, no! I don’t allow you to admit your crime. Just tell me, you are not guilty!”
She gazed at the trembling hand of Trevor, who slapped her in a hurry. She didn’t say anything to the police under his expectant eyes, and the situation didn’t allow her to say it either. She saw the despair in the eyes of Trevor and nervousness in his eyes. He was more nervous than herself.
When she was about to be imprisoned, Trevor’s mother came to her and asked, “What do you want? Money? Or something else? As long as I can do it, I will give you anything, even if you want my life. This is my only son. He can’t lose his life because of you. I beg you. Please let him give up.”
She saw the humbleness and selfishness of this mother.
Then she heard Trevor’s mother say to her, “Even if my son can get through these five years, what will happen five years later? You are released from prison. You have no educational background and have been in jail, Such a woman! How can you deserve my son?”
A fatal blow to her!
In the first trial, she told Trevor to forget her, and he was not allowed to come to see her.
Tears blurred her sight. It turned out it had been so long, but she still felt sad when she thought of it.
Ms. Jones was frightened when he saw Camille’s miserable look. She wiped the blood from the corner of Camille’s mouth

with tissue from the bar counter and asked, “What’s wrong?
Camille raised her head and said, “I’m sorry. I’ll scare the guests. Can I go outside and stay for a while?”
Heather shook her head and sighed. “Silly girl, why don’t you know that you can’t afford to offend some people, and there is always something you shouldn’t do…”
When Luke’s car entered the Leicester Hotel and turned to the underground parking lot, he saw Rachelle walk out of the restaurant in a hurry from the rearview mirror. Then she was blocked by the fountain.
Rachelle should be in the villa. How did she get out of there?
He went back to his office and lit a cigarette. He couldn’t help but think.
He pressed the landline telephone button and went to the restaurant’s office. Luke said in a low voice, “Camille’s probation period is about to end. My personal assistant position is still vacant. Tell her first, and I’ll inform the human resource department later.”
