Chapter 105 Resection
Chapter 105 Rejection
That’s enough, Cameron.” Heidi had finally lost her patience and car firm of “Are you trying to dive us a comTIES WETE still your parents, for crying out loud. Why are you being so cruel to us?
“Cruel?” Cameron repeated the word slowly, as if turning it over in her mind. Don’t you think you were even crueler to mE? Heidi froze. She dared not say another word. Deep down, she feared that if she pushed too hard, Cameron might blum out the truth that she had been a girl all along.
Cameron, clearly running out of patience, frowned and asked sharply. “So, are you signing or not?
Martin’s face darkened. “Sign it or not? he thought grimly. If we sign, we officially sever dies with Cameron, which means the engagement with the Chapman family is off the table.
‘But if we refuse, and Cameron cancels the engagement herself, then she’s of no use to us anymore anyway
Either way, the outcome would be the same. What Martin never expected was that in the end, the one forcing their hand would be Cameron.
As Cameron saw their hesitation, she turned toward Matthew and Kate. ‘Mr. Chapman, Mrs. Chapman, actually I’ve been keeping a secret for eighteen years-”
“We’ll sign, Martin cut her off in a panic.
There was no way they could let the Chapman family find out that Cameron had been pretending to be a boy. If the Chapman family realized they had been deceived for nearly two decades, they would never let this go
And once the truth got out, the Wallace family would become a laughingstock across all of Viremont. Martin’s dignity would be completely destroyed.
“You’re really signing?” Heidi stared at him, stunned.
“Dad?” Milena looked equally shocked. Without a second thought, Martin scribbled his name on the document
Heidi was against it, but since Martin insisted, she added her signature as well.
“Get out,” Martin growled as he threw the papers at Cameron with all his strength.
Bradley reacted instantly, raising his hand to shield Cameron. The folder hit hard. It stung. The back of Bradley’s hand turned red on the spot.
At least it didn’t hit Cameron directly, Bradley thought, his eyes, behind his gold–rimmed glasses, turning icy cold.
‘With how they’re treating her in front of all these people, who knows what kind of hell she’s been living in under this roof? he thought.
The usual gentle smile had vanished from Bradley’s strikingly handsome face. His voice was cold and firm. “From now on, the two of you have nothing to do with Cameron. Stay out of his life.”
Martin and Heidi said nothing. Milena was furing, biting down on her lower lip so hard it nearly bled.
‘Cameron’s no longer part of the Wallace family. Then who’s going to marry Amelia? What happens to the Wallace family now?‘ she wondered.
“Let’s go, Brad.” Cameron did not want to waste another word on them. She bent down, picked up the documents, and turned to leave with him.
Just as they reached the villa entrance, Matthew stepped in front of them. “Cameron, wait. You can’t leave yet, we haven’t finished discussing the engagement.”
Cameron looked at him coolly. “The engagement was between your family and the Wallace family. What does tha do with me?”
Matthew was caught off guard, momentarily speechless.

Cameron and Bradley walked out of the house and headed toward the car. Just as Cameron was about to open the front passenger door, a delicate hand reached out and grabbed the handle before she could.
Cameron turned to look. Amelia had followed them out.

Usually proud and untouchable, the campus q school? Mind giving me a ride? I’ve got class, t Bradley’s expression softened, returning to his usual polite self. But his words remained firm. “It’s not on our way.” Amelia froze, stunned. ‘Not on their way? Aren’t they going back to school? Did did Bradley just turn me down?” she wondered.
