Chapter 1369: Chapter 1369 I am already married

“Let it go, this incident was an accident after all. If you really want to find the person responsible, then go find that driver,” he could only say so to Mother, although he feared finding the driver would be futile as he wasn’t the one who caused the accident.

However, facing his mother, that was all he could say.

The woman before him, he genuinely liked her, but he knew very well, in her eyes and her heart, there was only Leon Hayden.

Seeing her son constantly defending Camila Walker, Mrs. Pearce felt helpless and heartbroken.

If he truly liked her, why not use this incident to keep her by his side?

“Jose, my decision is made, I must make her responsible towards you!” Mrs. Pearce steeled her heart, she had already talked things through with her parents and wasn’t worried about her not agreeing.

In fact, she knew that this matter ultimately couldn’t be forced, but for her son’s happiness, she had to try!

Faced with his mother’s insistence, Jose Pearce couldn’t help feeling frustrated, “Mother!”

“You don’t need to say anything, I’ll handle this matter!” After saying that, Mrs. Pearce turned around, facing Camila Walker with a firm tone, “Miss Walker, I don’t care what you currently feel towards my son, but he indeed lost a leg for you. Do you know how much this will affect his life in the future!?”

Mrs. Pearce’s words were crystal clear to Camila Walker.

But she was unable to fulfill her demands.

Indeed, she owed Jose Pearce and if she was to repay him, then…

“Mrs. Pearce, I’m truly sorry, I’m already married, and I also have a daughter. I really can’t go against my heart and be with your son. If you really want me to compensate, then take one of my legs!”

Upon hearing this, both Jose Pearce and his mother were stunned.

From her expression, it was clear she was determined–meaning, she would rather lose her leg and pay a blood debt than marry her son?

Hearing this statement, Mrs. Pearce unavoidably became harsh.

What was lacking in her son? Was he not worthy of being with a single mother?

Regarding Camila’s past, Mrs. Pearce had also heard bits and pieces, but because she was the heiress of the Walker Consortium, she had initially accepted that, as long as her son liked her, she had nothing to mind.

No matter how one put it, considering her status and the potential benefits for the development of the Pearce Group, she was better than Isabelle Wood in all aspects. That’s why initially she consented for her son to pursue her, but in the end, she was met with Camila’s cold and ruthless refusal.

Her son was injured because of her, didn’t she feel a hint of guilt? Shouldn’t she care for her son’s future?

“Miss Walker, let’s lay it all out, you say you’re married, but as far as I know, that isn’t the case; you had a child out of wedlock, right? I don’t even mind that, how can you mind my son?”

Trying to make her submit, Mrs. Pearce’s words were hard to swallow. For Camila Walker, they were a sharp thorn piercing deep into her heart.

Yet, she felt no shame.

Indeed, she had a child out of wedlock, but so what? Belinda Howard was her and Clayton Howard’s child; why should she feel ashamed?

Beside her, hearing his mother speak such words, Jose Pearce couldn’t help feeling angry.
