Mistaken Marriage, Unexpected Love

Chapter 33

“| understand what you mean, Grandpa, but | think that Isaac should be with the person he Likes,” Camila said from the bottom of her heart.

“Someone he chooses. That would be for the best.”

Robin knew this, too, of course, but he could also tell that Camila was only looking for an excuse to leave his grandson. He had been around for a long time, and had seen all kinds of things over the course of his life.

It also meant that he had the talent for manipulation when necessary.

“lam aware of your personal hardships.” Robin took out a folder and handed it to her. “Your mother is in dire need of a heart transplant, right? I’ve found a suitable donor for her, and the organ was already sent over to the hospital. Sign this, and | will arrange for your mother to have her surgery immediately. | will take care of the hospital bills and the follow-up treatments as well.”ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Camila was initially overjoyed by this unexpected surprise, but she soon realized that there was more to the offer than it appeared. She read through the document.

It was a guarantee note, stipulating that she would never divorce Isaac, no matter the circumstances.

“| heard that your mother’s condition is declining. If you delay her transplant any further, I’m afraid that even the best experts in the field won’t be able to save her. You know as well as | that a donor match is hard to come by, even with all the money in the world. And, I’m sorry to say this, but you don’t really have a lot of that, do you?” Robin already knew what to say to convince Camila. He had discovered her weakness, and had no qualms about using it to his advantage.

Camila’s hand clenched, crumpling the corner of the folder. Her emotions were all over the place. She didn’t know what to do. Avoice inside her head was telling her that this was Robin’s true purpose in calling her over today.

“Grandpa, what makes you so sure that | can take care of Isaac?”

“Because you are your grandfather’s granddaughter. | have faith in you.”

She took a deep breath. The more she tried to calm herself, the more panicked she became.

It was true that she couldn't afford to delay her mother’s surgery any Longer.

An earlier transplant would mean better chances at recovery. Camila sighed. She had to do this if she wanted to keep her mother alive. “I'LL sign it.”

“Good.” A smile finally appeared on Robin’s wrinkled face. “I didn’t misjudge you. I’m sure you will bring light and happiness in Isaac's life.”

Camila pressed her Lips into a thin line and kept silent.

The only thing she could think of saying was that the old man was wrong, that she didn’t have the power to make Isaac happy.

Only Debora could do that.

“ILL make a call at the hospital and tell the doctors to carry out your mother’s surgery as soon as possible.” Robin was already reaching for the phone.

Camila simply stood there in nervous anticipation. “Grandpa,” she said as soon as Robin finished the call. “May | go to the hospital and check on my mom?”

Her devotion and filial piety touched the old man.
