Chapter 7 A HEARTLESS BIOLOGICAL MOTHER

The beautiful girl's eyes looked teary, she didn't expect her mother to show her cold nature. She didn't even feel the slightest guilt for what she had done to her own daughter. Camelia was very disappointed, she was very upset at the bad fate that always happened to her. What does God really want? why this beautiful girl's life felt so heavy. What great sin has Camelia committed? until suffering after suffering always comes without end.

"Mom, why did she come back here?" Johnny asked his mother.

Kania just shook her head, she also wondered why Camelia could return to that house so easily. Has Erick changed her mind?! that was all this woman who thirsted for treasure and wealth thought.

"Camelia, who allowed you to come back here? I sold you to the rich man," Kania said frankly.

The girl looked at her mother with fear. "Why do you have the heart to do this? Why did you sell me to that bad man. Is it because of debt? You should have told me first, I can pay off everything without having to be like this. Do you know how scary this guy named Erick is? He almost kill me, Mom!"

This was the first time Camelia shouted that loudly in front of her mother, Kania was shocked and almost slapped her daughter's face.

"Camelia listen, don't you love your mother huh? If I don't pay the debt immediately, then my head will be replaced. You should be grateful to be with a handsome and rich man like Mr. Erick, never mind going back there because your soul is already his. You have no right to come here anymore, so consider all this a sacrifice for your own family," Kania said with a small smile on her lips.

Johnny dragged Camelia by force outside but the girl kept screaming loudly and calling out her mother's name. Kania was so upset that she slapped Camelia's cheek several times and then pushed her away again by force.

"Mom, I am going to marry that man! Aren't you worried about your daughter huh?" Camelia shouted at the other end of the door.

Hearing the married word, the middle-aged woman was immediately attracted. She looked at the girl sharply while asking for all the truth, if it was true that the man named Erick was going to marry Camelia. Then this stupid girl would indirectly get the right to all his property as well. A rotten plan even Kania thought.

"Camelia, why does he want to marry you um? does that guy like you. Please, tell me," the mother asked enthusiastically.

"Mom, he just wants to play with my feelings. He treats marriage as a toy, and I hope you can help me get out of all this trouble. Please talk to him about this problem again, don't let me marry that bad man, I beg you." Camelia asked her mother.

Before they finished speaking, the two bodyguards had entered and asked Camelia to return to Erick's house immediately. Feeling unable to do anything, the girl immediately complied and left voluntarily. But before that, Kania had a message, if tomorrow or maybe later. She wanted to meet and talk to Erick directly, Camelia's heart felt a little happy. She thought that her mother might help her from the fake marriage, but what actually happened was that Kania wanted to use Camelia as a tool to make money.

***

A few minutes on the way the girl arrived at the house that felt like a prison by Camelia, there was already Erick waiting with a very sharp look. The man seemed to be able to guess what had happened at the family home of his future contract wife.

"Are you done talking to your annoying mother, Camelia?" Erick asked mockingly.

Camelia nodded. "Yeah, she also asked for time to meet you."

The man chuckled. "Well it looks like she wants to blackmail me back, but never mind it's not a problem. Because the most important thing now is that you must immediately sign our agreement, how about it?" Erick asked with a serious face.

"I need some more time, please don't be in a hurry," the girl pleaded.

Brug

Erick hit the table in front of him, he was very annoyed with Camelia's behavior, who was still selling dearly for this marriage. As a perfect person and able to attract all the women in this world Erick felt very humiliated, if not for his mother maybe he could have finished this stupid girl in one shot. But the time is not much now, if tomorrow Erick still can't introduce another candidate as a substitute for the woman of his mother's choice then his life will suffer greatly later. So as much as possible, he should be able to persuade Camelia to want to marry him.

"If you don't want an autograph, then tomorrow you will see your mother's corpse lying right in front of your face. Do you want that to happen Camelia? Fine then," the man said arrogantly.

Camelia was getting confused by the situation she was in, she didn't want this cruel man to dare touch her mother's safety. Because after all that mean and heartless woman was the one this girl really cared about. Did Camelia have to sacrifice now? After all, marriage doesn't last forever. And she could get away in a few years time.

Erick looked at the face of the girl in front of her sharply, he knew that Camelia must be experiencing anxiety in her heart. Therefore he must not let this situation go to waste and threaten her even more.

"Oh so you're going to let your mother die? okay," the man said while pretending to leave Camelia.

The girl stood up from her spot, she held the handsome man's arm trembling. "Master Erick, if I sign the contract will all the problems be solved?"

Erick smiled slightly as he glanced at Camelia. "Of course, your mother will be safe and I consider all your debts paid off. As long as on one condition, you must behave well and commendable in front of my mother tomorrow. Don't let one small mistake make her disappointed."

Camelia swallowed hard, this was quite a difficult decision. But if she didn't give a response, her mother will probably be in a more dangerous condition.

"Okay, I'll sign the contract. As long as you promise not to touch my mother and brother again Mr. Erick."

The man came back with a document in his right arm, he handed Camelia a ballpoint pen. The girl began to take deep breathed, hoping that the actions she took now would never be regretted for the rest of her life.
