Chapter 30 Troublemaker
Daisy didn’t see that.
“Doesn’t Maxwell like Svetla? How could he fall in love with
someone else so soon?”
Svetla?
Camila felt a bit bitter.
The girl who took a photo with Maxwell was Svetla?
“Don’t mention her anymore.” Gideon’s face darkened.
Daisy didn’t dare to speak. She took Gideon to the dining
room.
When they passed by Camila, Camila wanted to push the wheelchair, only to be coldly refused by Daisy.
Just then, Raven asked Camila to help her in the kitchen.
“Deal with these lobsters.” Raven gave Camila a pot of lobsters.
Maxwell would work overtime tonight and go home late. So Daisy asked Raven to serve the dishes.
“Raven, eat with us,” Daisy said to Raven.
Raven glanced at Camila. Seeing that Camila dealt with lobsters in a different way, Raven criticized her because it would be a waste of food. Then, Raven showed her how to do

it again and asked her to follow suit.
After that, Raven went to the dining room.

Camila said nothing. She knew that Raven was recommended by Daisy. And Raven didn’t like her, always making things difficult for her. With Daisy in the house, Raven would only make things harder.
But as long as Raven didn’t go too far, she could endure it for Gideon’s sake.
Gideon ate some food. Then he noticed that Camila was still
in the kitchen. He asked her to join them.
Since Gideon was so nice to Camila, Daisy was upset.
“Dad, she’s still young. It won’t do her harm.”
Gideon glared at her and asked Raven to help Camila.
So Raven had to go back to the kitchen without eating anything.
“Why are you so slow? You did this on purpose, didn’t you?” Raven was annoyed. She vented her anger on the lobsters.
Camila put the lobsters on the table after dealing with them.
Gideon asked Camila to sit down and eat.
Just as she wanted to sit down, she heard Daisy’s voice. “This is for Maxwell. You can’t sit here.”
So Camila changed her seat.
“This is for my daughter. You can sit before Raven.” Daisy

pointed at the seat that was farthest from Gideon’s.

“Bam!” Gideon threw the fork at the table. “Are you letting her have dinner or not? Maxwell isn’t here. So what if she sits in his spot?”
“Well, I just don’t want to break the rules.”
“Rules? You just don’t want her to have a nice meal.” Gideon was mad. Then he coughed.
Daisy and Camila hurried over. Finally, Gideon asked Camila to take him back to his room, leaving Daisy alone.
After closing the door, Camila took out Gideon’s medicine and got him a glass of water.
Gideon felt better after taking medicine.
“Camila, don’t be mad at her. Maxwell lost his parents when he was young. Daisy takes him as her own child. So we should have talked to her about Maxwell’s marriage. But I have my
reasons.”
Gideon paused.
“Maxwell had a girlfriend. They were about to get married when something happened. They didn’t get married, as a result. I knew that girl when she was young. She is active and open–minded. I like her, but I don’t think she is a good wife for Maxwell.“‘
Then his face darkened.
“Maxwell cherishes people around him. When he suffered a heavy blow at a young age, he only had that girl with him. They stayed together all the time. Because of that outgoing

girl, Maxwell got rid of the shadow.

“But she has a shortcoming. She is so competitive. And that’s why she made a mistake. She was too ashamed to see Maxwell, so she went abroad alone. In fact, I could tell she was not a good wife for Maxwell before. They are so different. It’s good for them to be friends. But if they are a couple, Maxwell will feel tired, and there will be conflicts. So I chose you. You are quiet, introverted, reliable, and capable.
“Still, I found your problem. You’re so honest and gullible. It’s good to be honest. But you may be cheated. You should meet more people and learn how to figure out people’s thoughts. Then, you’ll be a good wife to Maxwell. You understand?”
Camila was so moved that her eyes turned red. Although their marriage may not last long, Gideon was truly nice to her. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have said that to her.
“Don’t worry. I’ve kept your words in mind,” Camila said.
Gideon nodded with satisfaction. He told her that Daisy wouldn’t live here for a long time and asked her not to be mad
at Daisy.
That night, Maxwell got home late. And Camila was woken up by the argument in the yard.
She got up and walked to the door. Through the window, she could see that Daisy was very excited in the yard.
Daisy pointed at Maxwell’s chest. “I don’t believe that you’re over Svetla. She loves you so much. But you married another woman. Don’t you feel guilty?”
Maxwell’s face was in the dark. So Camila couldn’t see his

face, but she could feel that he was suppressing his emotions.
“We’re done,” said Maxwell.
“So you married a bumpkin?” Daisy snapped, “Svetla gave up on her studies for you. Look at what you did to her after you succeeded!”
“She betrayed me. I’m not guilty.”
“She was just too young and naughty. So she was used by someone. She knows she did something wrong. Can’t you forgive her?”
“There is no turning back.” Maxwell sighed. “Please tell her that she is welcome if she wants to go home. But she is only my sister.”
Camila could feel the struggle and pain in his heart.
Camila wondered what kind of person Svetla was.
Camila couldn’t help feeling curious about this stranger. So many people liked Svetla. Svetla must have her strengths.
Maxwell still slept in the study.
Camila guessed that Chloe didn’t come probably because there was a guest in the house or Chloe had decided to give up on Maxwell.
But Camila held that Daisy was harder to deal with than Chloe. Daisy was not easygoing.
The next morning, as soon as Camila woke up, she got a text
message from Maxwell. He asked her to send him a shirt in the closet in the morning.

Camila found the shirt and went to the study. The door was half open. She knocked on it but got no reply.
Was Maxwell still sleeping?
Camila pushed the door open and entered. As she raised her head, she saw Maxwell changing his clothes.
