Chapter 45

Chapter 45 Problems Unbeknownst To Others “That was the darkest year of my life. I followed my mom back to the Mccarthy Family, but because my health wasn’t good, I would faint from time to time. Additionally, my mom was forced out of the house by the Nolan Family, and since my uncle was afraid of offending both the Roberts and the Nolans, he refused to let us go back to the Mccarthy family. In the end, my mom had to rent a room outside. Just a few months later, she passed away in a car accident, and since then, I’ve never had a family member.”

With just a few words, Brian explained the entire experience of that particular year. Even so, Camila could still imagine how helpless Brian must have felt during that time. He was only twelve years old, yet he had already gone through his parent’s divorce, the betrayal of his own brother, and his mom’s death.

In just a year, he lost all of his relatives.

Oh my God! How was he able to push through everything?

It was no wonder that his face looked hostile when he saw Silas.

Perhaps in Brian’s heart, Silas was a heartless brother, an unfilial son, and a traitor who betrayed his family in order to pursue riches, regardless of the injustice faced by their mom.

Camila’s eyes subconsciously became gentle as she asked, “Where are you staying right now?”

Brian gave a light smile while giving her a look that said ‘don’t look at me with that pair of sympathetic eyes’. “I’m doing fine now. Later, my grandpa found me. I also did some business and was able to take care of myself.” For a moment, Camila did not know what to say. “Has the situation from that year been clearly investigated?” Brian replied, “That man is dead, so it’s impossible to find out the truth. I suppose |

could not disassociate from Lara and Edward. Without the evidence, I can only make them pay using my own methods. However, the Nolan Family did well under Silas’s management. Now, I don’t have enough strength to compete with them.” After taking a long time to digest the entire situation, Camila then took a deep breath before giving a word of comfort. “Have you ever thought about it? Perhaps some things are not like what you see on the surface. Have you ever sat down with your brother to have a proper chat?”

Brian then gave a cold snort. “What should I talk about with him? Talk about family? Or brotherhood?

What does he have?” Camila opened her mouth but did not know how to persuade him. She felt that Silas was not the kind of person that Brian thought he was. Would Silas abandon his own mom, who was being framed, and even destroy the relationship with his brother, just so he could enjoy riches?

Nonetheless, she did not experience the situation firsthand and did not know the real truth behind it.

To put it bluntly, Camila did not know Silas very well and had only come into contact with him twice.

Just like how she always thought that Brian was a warm and gentle boy, but he turned out to be full of scars! Camila stayed in the restaurant with Brian for two hours before they went back. She had the feeling that some things were unspeakable and felt inexplicably heavy. Surely, everyone would have some difficulties and problems unbeknownst to others. Camila had just arrived at her driveway, and even before she got out of her car, she saw a man holding a large bouquet of roses walking over to her. She was not able to see the person’s face as it was blocked by the large bouquet.

Hence, Camila got out of her car suspiciously. As soon as she shut her car door, the bouquet of roses was already in front of her.

She did not accept it. Instead, she was busy looking at the face hidden behind the roses.

By observing the figure, it did not look like Landon. So who exactly was this person? Or did they send it to the wrong address?

However, the person did not wait for Camila to accept the flowers and revealed his face from behind the bouquet of roses. With a smile on his face, he greeted Camila. “Miss Brooklyn.” The corner of Camila’s mouth twitched. “Robin?” Robin then smiled and nodded his head. “Yes, Miss Brooklyn. I’m really sorry about yesterday. I’m used to joking with them, and I didn’t mean to harm you in any way.”

With this, he handed the bouquet to her. “Please accept these roses and don’t worry about that issue anymore.” Camila stretched her lips awkwardly. This was her first time receiving a bouquet of roses as an apology.
