Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 1478

Sylvain heaved a long sigh of relief after seeing Camilla and Ursula off. The desolate look in Ursula’s eyes filled him with guilt for some reason. A soft heart was a kind of disease. It was like a knife, cutting at his resolve bit by bit and forcing him to do things he did not want to do. In the end, he could only try to harden his heart. He could only think about it and not act.

Ursula did not go with Camilla after leaving the villa.

Camilla asked suspiciously, “Where are you going? Aren’t you taking me to the hotel? What if I run into bad people? I don’t know my way here.”

Ursula paused for a moment before she said, “It’s alright. There won’t be any bad people in the middle of the day. Just tell the cab driver to go to the hotel. At most, you’d be cheated out of a few dollars. I have important matters to attend to. I’ll see you at the hotel soon.”

Camilla frowned. “Actually… I don’t want you and dad to divorce either. But what can I say? You lied to him. You should’ve told him about your son in the first place. You may not be my biological mother, but I know that you’ve been good to me over the past few years. You’ve done much more for me than my dad. I’ll persuade my dad to give you some alimony if you divorce him. I can’t let your years of effort go down the drain.”

Ursula was not certain if she was moved by Camilla’s words, but she felt tears in her eyes. “Let’s not talk about these things. You go on ahead, I’ll leave when you get in the car.”

When the cab drove off, Ursula finally burst into tears. Even Camilla, her stepdaughter who had no blood relations with her, thought she was wonderful for fulfilling her duty as a stepmother. However, she had never fulfilled her duties as a mother to Sylvain, her biological son. She felt guilty, but she was more afraid of losing everything she had. She did not want to lose everything again. She had abandoned Sylvain and left the county to escape a life of poverty. It was not easy for her to snag a rich foreigner, she was certainly not going to let herself return to her original state.
