Mistaken Marriage, Unexpected Love

Chapter 264

She was mistaken. He was not that man. Suddenly, they heard footsteps from the opening of the hole. Someone was approaching.

Wynter arrived with some people, including Leland and his daughter. Someone shone a light down the hole, revealing Camila’s untidy appearance.

“Turn off the Light!” Isaac shouted.

In an instant, it was dark again.

Isaac unbuttoned his suit jacket and draped it on Camila. Someone inserted a ladder in the opening.

Isaac helped Camila get out of the hole first.

As soon as the two were out, Leland hurriedly explained, “Oh, I’m so sorry! This is my daughter, Marlowe’s fault. She took Miss Haynes to the rose garden because she wanted to be friends with her. It’s Marlowe’s favorite place, you see. After Miss Haynes fell into the hole, she returned to the manor and asked me to save her, but you found her first.”

Leland was a cunning man.

He knew that his daughter had done something stupid.

Thus, he promptly came up with an explanation to excuse Marlowe’s behaviour.

“Are you okay?”

Marlowe grimaced inwardly. Despite her protests, her father insisted that she apologize to Camila. “I'm sorry. It’s all my fault. You got hurt because of me. | hope you don’t get mad at me.”

Camila frowned. It was like the woman before her and the one who pushed her into the hole were two completely different people.

She and her father were peas in a pod. Both of them were excellent liars.

Camila smiled sharply.

“It's weird, isn’t it? There were only two of us here, and then | felt someone push me. | wonder who did it.” At that point, Marlowe could not keep her anger in check anymore. “Are you saying that it was me who pushed you?”

“Marlowe, that’s not what Miss Haynes means. Why would you push her if you were going to save her in the end? You were the one who told me that she fell into the hole. | can prove that you’re innocent.”

Aside from being cunning, Leland was also a great talker He just answered Camila’s question and proved his daughter's innocence in the same breath.

“No one wanted this to happen. Thankfully, you don’t seem to be hurt at all. However, as the host, | have to bear some responsibility for this situation. Please let me apologize to you by treating you to a meal.” Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
