Chapter 2153



"Whoa! Camilla, you're amazing! The women in our family are all incredible!" Axel showered his sister with praise before Bella could even speak. "Ax? You're here too?" Camilla was taken aback.

"Having you, the First Lady, investigate that scoundrel Christopher feels like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut."

"Don't say that," Camilla replied softly, her voice still as gentle as ever. "I didn't do much. Bella provided me with the clues, and I just followed the trail. It was a small effort on my part. Over the years, Edward and I have been abroad, busy with state affairs. I rarely get to come home and take care of the family or spend time with you all. I'm just glad to help out a little here. It makes me feel like I'm still with you, just like old times."

Both Axel and Bella were touched by her words.

"Camilla, we're really indebted to you this time. Once this matter is resolved, Bella and I will visit you and Edward in Sentania," Justin said warmly.

"Ah, Justin is there too? I always feel reassured when he's around," Camilla said with relief.

Axel, feeling a bit overlooked, grumbled. "Camilla, does that mean you only feel at ease when Justin is around? What about me?"

"I used to feel at ease with you, but now it's different. You have someone in your heart, Ax." Camilla spoke as only an older sister would, calm and measured, perhaps influenced by years of being by her husband's side in politics. It was easy to forget that she was not yet thirty. "When I was in Botvia, I met Ms. Walker. I could tell you two are deeply in love. I bet it won't be long before she becomes part of the Thompson family."

"Well... Yes, Roza is my beloved." Axel's face turned bright red, glowing with happiness.

"You care for Roza, but you can't be in two places at once. Now that you have someone special, you should focus on her. Naturally, you won't be as attentive to Bella as before," Camilla advised earnestly. "We will always be family, but we can't be there for Bella all her life. Only Justin can walk through life with her." "Camilla..." Bella interlocked her fingers tightly with Justin's.
