Chapter 1164: He Wants to Have Her!
Leo Campbell stared wide-eyed at the photo, his gaze burning with obsession, so intense it could scorch someone.
He tenderly caressed the face in the photo, as gently as if he were touching a treasure, murmuring, "You’re back, you’ve finally come back."
Mrs. Campbell returned from outside and saw Leo Campbell leaning over the computer, obsessed with a photo, and walked over.
The once-glamorous lady was now dressed plainly, her coarse hands covered with calluses, lacking skin care products, looking as worn-out as any ordinary rural woman.
When Mrs. Campbell saw the photo on Leo Campbell’s computer, her eyes widened with fury, "That little bitch! Why are you looking at that little bitch? How dare she come back? Ha... She’s the one who ruined us."
"If it weren’t for her, Jovana Shaw’s illegitimate status wouldn’t have been exposed, that foolish woman wouldn’t have been kicked out by the Shaw Family, and our family wouldn’t be like this.
Even the Campbell Family refused to help us in the end... It’s all because of her, that damned woman!"
Mrs. Campbell seemed to have forgotten how she once greedily valued Jovana Shaw and initiated the marriage alliance, only to end up being tricked.
She blamed Aurelia Shaw for all those years of hardship and suffering.
Mrs. Campbell angrily slammed the keyboard.
The person in the computer suddenly vanished.
Leo Campbell’s eyes filled with anger, "If it weren’t for you stopping me, the person I’d have married would be Aurelia! If you hadn’t let that jinx into our home, would I have ended up like this?"
From a privileged young master to someone so poor he struggled to afford daily meals.
Leo Campbell held deep resentment toward everyone.
If his mother hadn’t stopped him from getting close to Aurelia back then, he’d be the one by Aurelia Shaw’s side now!
Images of Mason Nightshade standing protectively by Aurelia Shaw lingered in Leo Campbell’s mind, jealousy fueling his rage, veins bulging on his hand.
He needed to have her!
Mrs. Campbell’s eyes reddened, unable to believe her son said such things, "Ungrateful child, how dare you speak to me like this! I raised you with immense effort, never enjoying any benefits, yet you still despise me..."
Leo Campbell had heard these words countless times, his ears callused, and now his head throbbed painfully, as he violently pushed Mrs. Campbell to the ground.
He stormed out.
Mrs. Campbell watched her son leave, then glanced toward the black computer screen, her eyes revealing a frosty cold glint.
...
In the car.
Aurelia rubbed her temples.
Having gained nothing from Aiden Campbell, they returned, staying would only waste time.
Mason Nightshade noticed her fatigue, grasping her fingers, playfully pinching her fingertips, "Don’t worry, the absence of conditions suggests other plans.
My people are investigating, and Aiden Campbell is also searching. Even if he has wings, he won’t hide for long."
"Mm." Aurelia knew Mason Nightshade was comforting her, nodded gently, her slender and beautiful fingers rubbing her temples.
Her headache was intense.
These symptoms were particularly noticeable recently.
Could it be the poison Freeman injected taking effect?
No news from Junia Simpson’s side, she did not know what kind of poison flowed within her. She initially thought it was drugs, but having not suffered from addiction all this time indicated it wasn’t drugs, but a unique poison.
She touched her bulging veins, her gaze dim. The feeling was akin to having a ticking time bomb buried within, ready to go off at any moment.
