Chapter 1368: Chapter 1368: What Can You Offer to Make Amends?

Initially, she had some complaints about Camila Walker, blaming her for her son’s condition, but once she considered that this woman was the one her son loved, she accepted it and sought to bring them together. However, she never expected to be met with such an attitude!

“So, are you suggesting that I should be with him out of guilt?” Camila Walker was candid, feeling not even a trace of fear toward Jose Pearce’s mother.

In life, the hardest thing to defy is one’s own heart.

Mrs. Pearce was taken aback, suddenly at a loss for words.

All she wanted was to fulfill every desire of her son. Furthermore, although the Pearce Family had considerable wealth and property, if her son were truly to become crippled from this day forward, which woman would truly love him?

If that were the case, it would be better to satisfy him by having him be with this Camila Walker, for at the very least, she was the woman he loved!

“What else then? As for everything that happened today, what else can you offer to make amends? Money? The Pearce Family has plenty of that and doesn’t need any!” Mrs. Pearce retorted strongly, addressing Camila Walker with conviction!

On the hospital bed, hearing this, Jose Pearce couldn’t help but fall into a daze.

He looked at his mother with a puzzled expression and asked, “Mother, what are you all talking about exactly?”

At his voice, Mrs. Pearce turned her head toward her son.

Then, pursing her lips, she knew that her son liked Camila Walker. Thus, she only wanted to use the event as an opportunity to make her his official woman!

“Son, Mother knows that you like this Camila Walker, so…”

“So you want her to be with me out of guilt?” Before she could finish, Jose Pearce interjected with a look of displeasure.

He liked Camila Walker, but he was not so low as to accept this situation!

Seeing the sudden displeasure on his face, Mrs. Pearce fell silent.

“Son, you got injured because of her. She should naturally take responsibility for that. If it wasn’t for trying to save her, how could you have ended up like this today?”

Thinking of the leg her son had lost, Mrs. Pearce spoke with a pained heart.

She was very aware that although her son disliked her interference, deep down, he truly hoped to be with Camila Walker.

So, let her be the villain then!

Looking at his mother’s pained expression, Jose Pearce fell silent.

When he had initially rushed out without a thought for his own safety to save Camila Walker, he hadn’t considered death at all, but when he woke up again to find he had lost a leg, how could his feelings remain unaffected?

Death might not be terrifying, but what was hard to accept was the reality that he might truly have become crippled for good…

Thinking about this, he couldn’t help closing his eyes; not just his family but also he himself found it difficult to accept this truth.

But what of it? The woman before him didn’t love him at all. If she thought to be with him under these pretenses, it would only be out of guilt or pity. What good was a marriage like that for him?

“No matter what, she must take full responsibility for this matter!”

Jose Pearce lifted his head. He found it hard to accept his mother’s actions and didn’t want his fate to be tied to Camila Walker because of them.

“The cause of the event wasn’t her fault, and if you have to find someone to blame, then blame…” The name Isabelle Wood flashed through his mind but was ultimately choked back in his throat.

To blame Isabelle Wood? He didn’t want that, either.

ps: Seeing this, dears, you must be bursting with theories! Mia Harizon just wants to say, Camila Walker won’t agree!
