Chapter 247 Lylaâs Parents
Gael was shocked. Even if she survives the surgery without any anesthetic, she wonât last long after the surgery without any painkillers! âWho refuses to allow her to receive any anesthetic?â
Leila answered, âThe doctor wouldnât dare to tell me, but I guess that it could only be Silas since he has such a huge power!â He took a deep breath. Is he really that cruel? âIn that case, what else can I do? Are you asking me to use my company, which is on the verge of bankruptcy, to compete with him?â She sobbed while telling him, âGo and find Camila. I can see that Silas is quite soft-hearted toward her. If we ask for her help, it may work.â While remaining silent, Gael lay back on his chair. What else can I say to her? Iâve already tried to look for her, but she has completely ignored me. She doesnât want to listen to her father anymore. Leila continued with her words, âDear, no matter what, Camila is still your daughter.
She will never ignore you. If it really fails, you can bring me along. Iâll beg her and ask for her forgiveness. I can even kowtow to her if she wants to. I just want her to cut my daughter some slack!â
Gael stared ruthlessly. âYou should have known a long time ago that this would happen. You ask her to cut your daughter some slack, but before this, when have you ever let her off the hook? If you and Lyla did not continuously mess with her, she wouldnât need to have been so cruel toward you. The two of you have brought this upon yourselves!â
Leila continued to sob. âWe know that this is our fault. I promise that Iâll keep an eye on Lyla from now on and stop her from bothering Camila. Dear, please help me. How can you bear to see your daughter die in pain while lying on the surgery table? I would rather end her life immediately with a knife!â Finally, he was moved after she stayed in the company for an hour to convince him. He decided to head to Camilaâs fashion studio and beg her in person. She will never refuse me. Not only am I fighting for Lyla, but Iâm also fighting for my company. I must humble myself and go to her because I canât watch my company crumble without a fight!
George had also followed Camila to her workshop today. When he saw the married couple entering through the door, he even assumed that they were clients who came for a class. He politely greeted them, âHello!â Gael was confused, looking at the man in front of him. Who is he? âIs Camila here?â he asked carefully.
George staggered for a second. âOh. Yes, she is here. You two can wait here for a while as she is now in her office. Iâll go and call her for you.â After that, he went straight into the office. At that moment, Camila was having a meeting with her employees. When she heard a knock on the door, she allowed him to enter. âWhat is it, George?â âThere is a married couple waiting for you outside,â he replied. After giving her response, she turned toward her seated employees. âFine, weâll end the meeting here today.
Everyone can now continue with their work. Good luck.â Then, she followed him directly out of the office.
The moment she saw the two people in the reception room, she felt as though someone had dropped a huge boulder on her heart. For a moment, she couldnât catch her breath. Her brows furrowed in an unnatural way as her face turned as cold as ice. Immediately, Gael and Leila stood up and carefully called her with a guilty conscience, âCamila!â She asked them coldly, âWhy are you here?â Meanwhile, George also slightly furrowed his brows. âCamila, who are they?â She smiled with a few traces of mockery. âThese two are Lylaâs parents!â She didnât even introduce me as her father. Gael was starting to feel upset. What have I done to my daughter that has made her unwilling to even acknowledge me?
âCamila-â
Before Gael could finish his words, Georgeâs face immediately darkened. âYou two are Lylaâs parents?
What do you want?â
After being asked for his motive, Gael started to feel guilty again as he stuttered, âO-Camila, no matter what, you canât just let Lyla die. Iâm begging you as your father.â
