Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) -
Chapter 681 Being a Wealthy Woman Is More Important
Just then, the food in Camilla's hands fell to the ground.
"But I..."
"There's no 'but'. We've already made it clear. You were responsible for cooperating with me and acting in this play. Now that the play is over, your mission is also completed. You can leave."
"Hank, I've been by your side for so long. Don't you have any feelings for me?"
Camilla couldn't believe that he could be so cold and heartless. She had spent every day of six whole months with him and had developed deep feelings for him.
She took a few steps forward as she intended to wipe away his sweat as she had done before, but he blocked her hand.
"Please maintain your boundaries. We no longer have any relationship."
This implied that she didn't need to do these things to move him.
Camilla felt her heart shatter.
She turned her head and saw Yelena standing by the side, looking bewildered and helpless.
She couldn't help but feel that Yelena was pretending to be pitiful, especially the look of pity in her eyes when Yelena looked at her. Camilla felt like someone was cutting her heart with a knife.
In a rage, she reached out and pushed Yelena forcefully. "It's all because of you! If it weren't for you, I would be living a good life with Hank right now!"
Yelena, who was caught off guard, staggered backward and hit the table behind her.
Her back hit the table hard, which caused her to grimace in pain. "What are you doing? What does this have to do with me? What's the point of pushing me?"
Yelena also felt wronged. This matter had nothing to do with her, and she had been completely unaware of it before. Why was Camilla treating her like this?
"Why are you treating me like this?"
Camilla looked at Hank on the bed with tears in her eyes.
"Everything was written clearly in the contract. I hope you won't develop any feelings for me. You didn't keep your promise."
Camilla blinked, trying hard not to let the tears fall.
He was right. She had also promised not to develop any feelings for him, but emotions were not something that could be controlled.
She had long fallen in love with him during the time they spent together.
With that in mind, she tried to suppress her emotions while making herself appear less distraught.
"I understand now. I'm really sorry. I know what I should do."
Although she lost control of her emotions just now, she knew what she should do after regaining her rationality.
After all, the person he truly liked had returned, and she was just a substitute.
Camilla turned to Yelena and slightly bowed to Yelena as an apology, and then left without looking back.
After watching Camilla's desolate figure, Yelena couldn't help but shake her head and sigh.
"What a pitiful person. I can't understand how you came up with such a crude trick to deceive the feelings of an innocent girl."
Hank's forehead twitched with anger after he heard these words.
"What do you mean by deceiving the feelings of an innocent girl? It was clearly written in the contract not to develop any feelings toward the employer. She wasn't able to control herself. It has nothing to do with me."
Hank despised dealing with these unnecessary emotions the most.
"Is it really that easy to control emotions? You know very well that she might develop feelings for you," Yelena muttered softly.
"Mr. Damazio, you're really charming. Any young girl who gets close to you becomes infatuated."
Those sarcastic words made him inexplicably pleased.
However, he would still explain things clearly.
"That's not the case. I never suspected that she would develop feelings for me because I have never paid attention to her."
Upon hearing such cold and heartless words, Yelena was also taken aback.
"You truly are a callous and heartless man."
It was unclear whether this was a good or bad thing.
Hank turned to look at her seriously. "Others may say that about me, but you should know better. How dare you say that."
Yelena stuck out her tongue. "I was just joking."
"All right. Stop fooling around. You said you're going back to work, so go back quickly."
Yelena found it strange that he was urging her to leave in such a hurry.
"Why are you so anxious for me to leave? Is there something wrong? Don't you want to see me?"
Hank rolled his eyes at Yelena for the first time since she knew him. "I want you to go back to work and not overthink things."
"All right then. Take care of yourself."
"All right then. Take care of yourself."
She reluctantly left the ward while looking back frequently.
After she left, Hank stared expressionlessly at the door and said, "Come in."
There was no movement at the door as if everything was just his imagination.
He furrowed his brow slightly and felt impatient.
"I won't say it a second time."
The door handle was gently turned immediately, and Camilla walked in with her head lowered as she felt somewhat embarrassed.
She no longer looked as distressed as she had before.
Camilla saw that Hank's expression seemed pleased, so she asked, "Mr. Damazio, how was it? Did I act well?"
"It was passable. At least she believed it."
"Of course. When it comes to emotions, I'm a professional," Camilla said while raising her chin proudly. "But there's one thing I don't understand. She already knows that you hired someone to act, so why did you ask me to put on another act today?"
Originally, everything could have ended on a happy note, but Hank had to make things difficult.
If Yelena knew that the person Hank hired had fallen in love with him during their long time together, she would definitely feel uncomfortable, wouldn't she?
He was direct in his answer. "To make her jealous."
Camilla was speechless. Why was this man so cunning?
"If you don't mind me asking, Mr. Damazio, what's your zodiac sign?"
"I'm a Scorpio."
No wonder!
"Why did you want to make her jealous?"
Hank's face darkened. "That's not your concern. If there's nothing else, you can leave. I'll transfer the money to your account."
Camilla mentioned again, "Don't forget your promise to give me an additional 450 thousand."
"Don't worry. I haven't forgotten about it."
Upon hearing that, Camilla left with a smile.
450 thousand. She could transform into a wealthy woman in an instant!
Who would want to fall in love with such a cunning and bad man? It would really be unlucky.
However, she did feel sorry for Yelena. Having such a man, Yelena would surely suffer in the future.
