Chapter 40
“Your mother has woken up.” Camila instantly brightened.
“Really?”
“Yes, I was just about to call you. Now, go and sit with her.”
“Thank you.”
Her mother had been transferred to a general ward after the surgery. Camila
hesitated by the door and just looked at her conscious mother. She took a
moment to calm herself before walking into the room.
“Mom. .
She tried to smile, but her emotions got the better of her, and tears streamed
down her cheeks.
“Mila,” Rowena called out in a weak voice as she reached for her daughter.
Camila rushed to her bedside and took her hand.
To be able to talk to her mother again was one of the most gratifying moments of
her life.
“I'm sorry, Mila...”
ALL along, Rowena had known just how grave her condition was. Since she had
gone through surgery and was now recuperating, she figured that Camila had
married into the Johnston family as demanded by Marvin.
Otherwise, Camila wouldn't have been able to fund her treatment. Rowena’s
eyes turned red. “Oh, I would have rather died than to make you sacrifice
yourself.”
Camila tightened her grip around her mother’s hand.
“Mom. How do you expect me to carry on if you are not here?”
Rowena had suffered a difficult Labor when she gave birth to Camila. As a result,
her body grew weak, and the doctor had informed them that she wouldn't be able
to conceive another baby. If it hadn't been for that, Marvin would have probably
never strayed from their marriage.
“How... How are you doing in the Johnston family?” Rowena gazed at her
daughter intently, her apprehensions evident in her voice.
Considering their family’s circumstances, she feared that the Johnston family
weren't treating Camila well.
Camila mustered a smile. “I'm fine, Mom. Grandpa and... Grandpa and Isaac are
both good to me. Don’t worry and just think about your recovery. You need to get
plenty of rest.”
