Abigail listened quietly. Meanwhile, Cameron was touched hearing that. A tearful Isla sniffled and held Cameron’s hand.

“You have a point, but he’s still not a good match for our daughter, Houston commented, a little. more polite now. He didn’t want to fight Sean.

Sean looked at him coolly. “We only brought her back so you can rethink your decision. I see you have made your decision. We’re leaving” He stood up and looked at Isla. “This is your problem. You make the decision.”

Isla held Cameron’s hand tightly and looked straight at her parents, “Thank you for raising me all these years, but I’m not an extension of your lives. I am not your property. Fam nearly twenty-six years old. I have a mind of my own and dreams of my own too. I have things I must do He’s the man I chose to be with. No matter what happens in the future, I will take it in stride.”

Abigail agreed with that. After all, every decision came with its own consequences. If the children could understand that, there was no need for their parents to butt in.

Lila’s eyes reddened, and she pointed at Isla. “You traitor! After all we did to raise you into an adult, you’re marrying someone inferior?”

After working for Sean for so long, he had built up his own aura, and he was like a sharp blade ready to kill. “Inferior? I promised you I’d open up a security firm, work hard, and make sure she doesn’t have to worry about life. I’m not a lazy person, and I’m not someone who can’t make money. I used to be in special forces, and I’ve gained a ton of glory working for Mr. Graham. I’ll tell the public I’m resigning, and there’ll be a ton of people willing to hire me. How is that bad for you?” Cameron looked calm and nonchalant.

Isla looked at him, her cheeks red. She wanted to hug him. This part of him was what she loved- his cool and gentle part.
