Chapter 63 Give Him to Me
That night, Maxwell said he would consider giving Camila some time, so he politely went to sleep in the study.
Camila lay on the bed, touching the ring on her hand, it fit perfectly.
Camila didn’t know what Maxwell said to Svetla tonight. Based on Svetla’s personality, it probably wasn’t easy for her to give up.

That night, Camila dreamt that Svetla invited her to meet up. After meeting, Svetla proceeded to humiliate Camila.
Camila was finally awakened by anger.
Who knew that Camila’s nightmare would come true.
Today is Monday and the company had a meeting.
Camila had just entered the company gate when she received a call from Svetla. Svetla invited her to meet at a café in a
shopping mall at noon.
Camila initially wanted to refuse, but Svetla said that if Camila didn’t go, Svetla would come to her workplace to replace her.
Although Camila thought that Svetla probably didn’t know where she worked, she was afraid that if she found out, it would be very troublesome.
At noon, Camila arrived on time for the appointment.
Today, Svetla was wearing a milk–white dress with her hair styled in large, dark brown waves. With her exquisite makeup, she looked both elegant and noble.

Svetla was like a proud princess who had stepped out of a castle. The way Svetla looked at Camila was always filled with a hint of disdain and a slight sense of contempt.
“Ms. Lambert, what would you like to drink?” Svetla had already ordered a cup of coffee. Stirring with a spoon, Svetla
asked.
“No, thank you,” Camila cut to the chase, “You didn’t invite me here for coffee, did you?”
“Of course,” Svetla took a sip of her coffee. “I wanted to talk to you about Maxwell.”
“Do you know about both his past and mine?”
“Heard about it.”
“Did Gideon say a lot of bad things about me?” Svetla’s eyes instantly turned resentful. “If it weren’t for him back then, Maxwell and I might have had children.”
“Grandpa never spoke ill of you.”
“You were chosen by him, so of course you speak in his favor,” Svetla sneered. “I grew up in an orphanage, and I know that the most untrustworthy thing in this world is a person’s mouth.”
“Are you an orphan?” Camila thought Svetla came from a noble family, but she didn’t expect you to be an orphan.
“Surprised? I was adopted by Maxwell’s uncle when I was 7

years old. Maxwell’s parents were still alive at that time. I used to play with Maxwell often. Later, his parents passed away. In order to accompany him, I stayed at the Starling’s home frequently.”
Later on, my parents immigrated. Because I couldn’t bear to leave Maxwell, and Maxwell didn’t want me to go either. In the end, it was decided to leave me at the Starling’s home.
“At that time, the Starling family treated me very well, especially Daisy. Daisy was still unmarried then, and she would always take me and Maxwell out to play, and even buy, us many toys and new clothes.”
“I remember one time when I was sick, I had a high fever that wouldn’t go away. Maxwell stayed by my side for three days and three nights. Maxwell lost a lot of weight during that time, and he said that if I died, he wouldn’t live either.”
“Later on, we all grew up. There were people pursuing me at school, and Maxwell would chase after them and warn them not to bother me. Maxwell said I was his, and that I could only marry him in this lifetime.”
“If it weren’t for that summer…” Svetla’s gaze dimmed as she spoke. “I participated in a beauty pageant and won the championship. Later, I caught the attention of a famous playboy who wanted me to be his girlfriend, but I immediately rejected him. Afterwards, he sent someone to take nude photos of me and spread them online.”
At this point, Svetla choked up a little.
“At that time, Maxwell and I were preparing for our wedding. However, when this matter arose, Gideon approached me and said that I was no longer suitable for his grandson. He offered

me a sum of money to leave Maxwell.”

Camila just listened quietly, feeling the ups and downs of Svetla’s emotions.
Svetla said, in the end, she went from sadness to anger, “Do you know? I was kidnapped and taken on the plane by
Gideon’s people. Since then, Gideon has cut off all contact between me and Maxwell.”
“Later, Daisy found me. Daisy gave me Maxwell’s email and phone number, but I was still a step too late.”
Svetla paused for a moment.
“Daisy told me everything about you and Maxwell. I think you married Maxwell just for his money. You two don’t have any emotional foundation, so I hope you can give Maxwell back to me. I have waited for him for five years, and I really don’t want to wait anymore.”
Svetla regained her haughty demeanor, assuming a commanding tone.
This made Camila feel very disgusted.
Although Svetla’s experience was sympathetic, it is not a reason for her to command others.
“Sorry, I couldn’t promise you,” Camila firmly refused.
“Why?”
“Because I didn’t want to.”
“What kind of reason is this?” Svetla squinted her eyes.
“Camila, I’ve talked to you so much today. I’m not negotiating

with you or begging you. I’m warning you, don’t try to ruin the relationship between me and Maxwell.”
“I am not interested in the relationship between you two. All I know is that Maxwell is now my husband. His past before marriage is none of my concern, and I do not wish to inquire about it.”
Svetla saw Camila’s determination and slapped the table.
“Camila, don’t push me to do something that you will regret, don’t act shamelessly.”
“Then I will wait and see.” Camila stood up and left without any courtesy, carrying her bag.
Svetla was surprised by Camila’s composure and calmness. In theory, a girl like Camila, with her background, should be the most easily frightened, shouldn’t she?
Still not shedding tears until one sees the coffin?
Svetla left the café and got into Pawel’s car. This was because Svetla’s Larissa had lent it to Gideon. Maxwell then sent the butler Pawel over.
In the car, Svetla suddenly asked, “Did you call Maxwell yesterday afternoon?”
Pawel remained silent, indicating agreement by default.
“What did you say to him that made him suddenly want to distance himself from me?” Svetla’s words were clearly filled with anger.
“Ms. Felton should have gone to ask Mr. Starling,” Pawel remained expressionless as always.

“If he had told me, would I still come to ask you?” Svetla felt unlucky when she saw Pawel’s poker face. “I really don’t understand how Maxwell could let someone like you stay by his side? You’re like a mute.”
“Mr. Starling disliked people who talked too much,” Pawel retorted.
“You?” Svetla continued to threaten and entice. “Pawel, if you just tell me a little bit, even just a hint, I will have Maxwell give you the house on Riverside Road, how about that?”
“Mr. Starling arranged a place for me to stay, thank you for Ms. Felton’s kindness,” Pawel did not appreciate it.
“How can you give me a hint then?” Svetla became anxious.
“What has Ms. Felton done recently to Ms. Lambert or her family?” Pawel said.
“What have I done? I haven’t done anything!” Svetla’s face showed a hint of panic.
