Chapter 193:

Kamila’s concerned voice sounded at the door, accompanied by soft knocking. Without waiting for permission, she opened the door and stepped into the room. Her eyes immediately went to the shattered phone screen, worry clouding her features. “Rory, tell me what’s going on p>

“Mom, how badly do you want to finally become the real Mrs. Stewart?” Rory asked.

Kamila froze, clearly shaken by the bluntness of his question. She quickly locked the door behind her, approaching him carefully, eyes narrowed in suspicion. “Rory, what exactly have you done p>

Although Rory didn’t bear the Stewart name, many in Kretol’s high society knew his identity. On the surface, he appeared kind and effortlessly sociable to those around him. Only Kamila truly grasped the depths of her son’s scheming and ruthless character.

Rory asked his question again and then laid out every detail of his actions with complete honesty. The moment Kamila learned that he’d arranged for someone to sabotage Wyatt’s car, her pulse raced. She shot him a sharp glare and scolded, “Have you completely lost your senses p>

“You still haven’t answered what I asked you, Mom.” Unbothered by Kamila’s anxious tone, Rory maintained a steady composure.

“Rory, is that even something you believe can happen p>

Kamila had grown up as part of a lesser Mills branch, yet her education had been nothing short of exceptional.

Despite knowing Jewell was already married, Kamila had chosen to stay by his side, raising her two children with him in the hope that she would one day become his wife. All that ambition had been worn down by the Stewart family’s cold indifference. Now, after she heard Rory’s scheme, Kamila’s eyes flickered with a mix of longing and dread.

“Anything can happen if you’re willing to take the risk. Just trust what I’ve set up, and you will eventually become a Stewart. Mom, think about Pattie and me. Are we supposed to spend our lives as illegitimate children forever?” Rory said.

Kamila knew that Rory’s plan was very risky, yet she felt powerless to resist the possibility of getting what she wanted and chose to go along.

Rory leaned closer to her and murmured his plan so only she could hear. The shock that crossed Kamila’s face was clear as day, yet underneath it, a hint of hope began to glow.

Davin handled things discreetly, and word of the car accident stayed contained. Still, that night, Della rushed to the hospital to see Wyatt after learning the news.

In Amelia’s mind, Della had always stood out for her poise and refinement. But now, Della’s face was puffy from crying, and her hair was a tangled mess.

Once inside the hospital room, Della hurried straight to Wyatt’s bedside. The sight of him lying there without moving broke her. Tears poured down her cheeks. Amelia quickly reached for a tissue and offered it to her.

Della cried for a while before finally stopping. Catching sight of Amelia’s tired face, she squeezed Amelia’s hand tightly. “Amelia, don’t let fear take over. I know my son. He will pull through this p>

Hearing comfort from Della at a time like this caught Amelia off guard, filling her with a mix of gratitude and guilt. She said, “Della, please forgive me. Wyatt ended up like this because he tried to protect me. If I had just p>

“Don’t say something like that!” Della cut her off, a flash of anger crossing her expression. “You’re his wife. It’s his job to keep you safe. There’s no reason to hold yourself accountable for any of this. If you want to blame anyone, blame the person who orchestrated all of this p>

With those words, a hard, chilling look settled in Della’s eyes. She had put up with so much over the years.

Yet those people had never shown mercy to her or to Wyatt. Since kindness had gotten her nowhere, she would not hold back anymore.
