706 Chapter 706: Apology to Camila Walker
Upon seeing her, Emily Walker instinctively stood up, thinking that she was going to attack her again.
However, Camila Walker seemed to be more composed this time, without the previously fierce expression.
She calmly walked to Angela Reid, "Mom, I'm a bit hungry."
Angela felt apprehensive, as based on Camila's personality, she might have wanted revenge after knowing about Emily's attack. However, her calm demeanor at this moment caught her off guard.
After half a moment, she finally collected herself, "Oh, okay."
Angela got up and gave an instruction to the servants.
She had been worried that Camila might not eat or drink, but now she was relieved that Camila was finally hungry.
After speaking, Camila sat down on the single sofa as if nothing had happened.
Seeing that Camila seemed calmer, Emily relaxed and sat down as well.
The sudden apology by Camila caught both Emily and Angela off guard, leaving them somewhat disoriented.
Emily looked up, still dazed, unsure who the words were directed at.
Camila looked up and fixed her gaze on Emily, "Indeed, I was the one who sent those photos. However, nothing happened between Baron Stuart and me. I just hated that the things I've been pursuing for twenty years were all taken away from you in an instant."
Although her tone was still resentful, her expression was unprecedentedly calm, as if at this moment, she only wanted to vent her grievances and all the resentment buried deep in her heart.
Emily was not surprised by Camila's hatred and unwillingness. What surprised her was that Camila would actually talk to her calmly about these things at this moment.
"No matter how long you've been pursuing it, some things don't belong to you. Even if you chase them for a lifetime, they still won't belong to you," Emily said. In the end, Camila was also a pitiful person.
However, her despicable actions far outweighed her pity, making it difficult to feel compassion for her.
"Yes, you're right. Many things indeed don't belong to me. Like the parents who have loved me for twenty years, no matter how deep their feelings are, they still can't withstand a DNA test. Even if I accompany them to the end of their lives, I still won't be their flesh and blood."
They only had one daughter, and it wasn't her. No matter what she did, she could never change that fact.
Upon hearing these words, Angela felt the sadness in Camila's heart and quickly spoke up.
"Camila, even though you don't have any blood relationship with us, we've always treated you as if —"
"Mom." Before Angela could finish her sentence, Camila interrupted her directly, "I know, I know that you still treat me as your own daughter. But Emily is your flesh and blood, something I'll never be able to compete for."
"Regarding the video, I know it's my fault, and I'm grateful that you didn't let Baron Stuart expose those unbearable scenes." She looked up at Emily, "I lashed out at you just now because I couldn't take it anymore. For that, I apologize."
Camila's sudden apology left Emily feeling bewildered.
Was this really Camila Walker? The same arrogant and haughty Camila?
As the three of them were talking, the doorbell rang.
After the servant opened the door, Baron Stuart walked in.
