Chapter 3

Camilla was diagnosed with acute gastroenteritis.

But she refused treatment.

Not only that, she also raised her hand and hit her belly hard. “Let me die in pain. So many people saw me being beaten. I have no face to live. Mr. Baldwin, let me die!” Camilla cried and shouted. Even though she looked like she was looking for death, she still did not forget to get into Tommy’s arms.

Tommy was very distressed. While comforting Camilla, he said to Noelle, who was standing at the door. “Apologize.”

“What did you say?”

Even though she knew who Tommy’s heart was with now, Noelle still couldn’t help but feel a chill when she heard this.

She was stubborn and resolute, rarely gave in to others.

In the past, even if she made a mistake accidentally, Tommy would stand in front of her and apologize for her. But now, Tommy was holding another woman in his arms, asking her to apologize to the wrong party.

“I said, kneel down and apologize to Camilla.”

Tommy repeated it again. Looking at the two people in a stalemate, Camilla burst into tears again.

She broke Tommy’s hand and was about to jump out of the window. Tommy nervously hugged her waist tightly. “Camilla, calm down. Don’t worry, I will make her apologize.”

The next moment, Tommy looked at Noelle with no patience in his eyes. “I’ll say it one last time, apologize, otherwise think about your parents. As far as I know, your father accidentally fell from the upstairs and is now in the hospital for treatment?”

Noelle’s fists clenched suddenly when he mentioned her parents.

The scene before her death in the last life was still vivid. She saw her parents drowned by the sea with her own eyes.

She didn’t want to experience that kind of pain for the second time in her life.

“Tommy, you are simply heartless,” Noelle said this sentence almost with gritted teeth. She thought that it was Camilla’s death in the last life that stimulated Tommy, so he would do such an extreme thing, but she didn’t expect that he was a bad person in his bones.

Tommy did not respond and the threat in his eyes became more and more obvious.

Under the gaze of the medical staff in the ward, Noelle slowly knelt down.

Her knees fell on the cold floor, hard and painful.

But it was not as painful as the pain in her heart.

“I’m sorry, Miss Spencer. Please forgive me.” Noelle was a proud person. Saying such words in public was tantamount to torture, but Camilla pretended that she could not hear it and forced Noelle to say it three times.

Each time was louder than the last.

“I’m sorry, Miss Spencer. Please forgive me.”

“I’m sorry, Miss Spencer. Please don’t be angry with me.”

“I’m sorry, Miss Spencer. Your health is important. Please forgive me.”

In every word, Noelle’s eyes were red.

That was an insult from the depths of her soul.

Finally, Camilla snorted with satisfaction and reluctantly allowed the nurse next to her to come forward and give her an injection.

She was shaking like a sieve and hugged Tommy tightly. “Mr. Baldwin, I’m scared.”

“I’m here.” Tommy didn’t even spare a glance for Noelle, but hugged Camilla and let her bite his wrist. The purple teeth marks seemed like Camilla’s silent declaration of war.

She was declaring her sovereignty.

Tommy didn’t understand, but Noelle did.

She sneered, got up and went home.

She thought Tommy wouldn’t come back at night, but late at night, she felt someone standing by the bed.

It was Tommy.

Almost at the same time, when Noelle opened her eyes, Tommy knelt down. “Noelle, please save Camilla.”
