The Mistress
Episode 23

"Where's Adam?"

Rea wanted to ask that, but her lips felt faint. I don't know why Rea wanted so much to see the young man. The one who used to oppress him without the slightest feeling.

"Daddy has enrolled Rea at the International University of San Francisco, in the next three months, Rea will start his studies" Abraham said, making Abigail's hopes dashed.

"How about Adam?" ask Patricia.

"He's an adult, let him choose his own pace" Abraham said.

"So Daddy meant Rea was still immature, so Daddy didn't let him take his own steps?" abigail said humorously.

Patricia chuckled, "Rea has grown up in acting, even more than you and Adam. But for us, Rea is our big baby."

"Mommy..." Rea frowned because it said baby.

In the warm conversation of the family, someone came, drawing their attention. Adam came not alone, but with a beautiful woman following him behind him.

Rea was stunned to see Adam who was so different from the last two years of their meeting. His face has now become more mature and firm, and his once thin body now looks more contained by the muscles in certain parts.

Only one has not changed from Adam, that is, a sharp look for him. Rea immediately lowered his head when Adam highlighted it fiercely, just like two years ago.

"Good morning everyone." It was not Adam who said hello, it was the woman who came with Adam.

That woman is Camila, Adam's ex-lover. Just like Adam, Camila transformed into a very beautiful girl, making Rea once again stunned to see him.

"Good Morning Camila. When did you get back from London?" patricia asked after they hugged her for a while.

Camila sat next to Adam, right in front of Rea. Adam took his breakfast in silence without greeting anyone in this room. While Camila who had met Rea's eyes, immediately turned her eyes to think as if Rea was not there.

"Sunday ago aunty." replied Camila with her sweet smile.

"I'm sorry Camila aunty. Camila thought, Camila is no longer welcome in this family, so Camila was reluctant to come. Though Camila also misses aunty very much." Camila's speech sounds very familiar with Patricia, signifying their relationship used to be quite close.

Rea felt himself isolated in this conversation, making him want to quickly get out of here.

"But when last night Adam came to see me, it turned out I had misunderstood all this time" Camila said with all the red on her face.

"Mom, Rea go to the room first" Rea told Patricia half-whispering.

"Yes dear. Take a shower and get ready, we'll go somewhere" Patricia said.

After Rea's departure, Abraham opened his voice. "Uncle listen, you're engaged to Mr. Tony Addison's youngest son, Camila. How's your relationship now?" abraham said without pause, making Camila speechless.

"Wedding?" Patricia's confused.

"That's... Daddy and Mommy have canceled the engagement Uncle." said Camila.

Camila could feel the disappointed look of Patricia who used to greatly bless her relationship with Adam.

"Then after that, you came back to Adam again?" ask Abraham.

"So, the reason you left Adam is because it's Camila?" a series of questions came, making Camila unable to dwell.

"It's not so aunty, Daddy's planning the engagement. And Camila absolutely can't refuse Daddy's orders." Camila argued.

Abraham shook his head, "Your Daddy told me everything. That you alone want to be betrothed to Mr. Tony's youngest son!" abraham said in a landslide.

Adam who heard that raised his gaze. Looking at Camila, the woman he adored fiercely.
