Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1776

"Why?" Daniel's voice was low. "Why did you bribe Owen? Why harm Maisie?"

Camila smiled, a sense of indifference resting upon her pallid face.

There was a saying, "A person becomes invincible when they desire nothing."

When someone reached a point where they no longer yearned for anything, that was often when they were the most powerful.

Just like Camila at that moment—she felt like she had lived for decades, and this was the only moment she truly felt unburdened.

Daniel's gaze was as sharp as a blade. It was the first time she had ever dared to meet his eyes like that.

Camila spoke softly. "Daniel, it's because I hate the Quimbys."

Daniel squinted. "What?"

Seeing Camila still hesitant, he waved his hand, signaling his men to leave the room. It was just the two of them now. The room wasn't large, yet it felt vast and quiet. Even their conversation echoed.

Camila took a deep breath, paused, and then revealed everything.

She hated the Quimbys for raising her but not loving her properly, for growing up in an environment of extreme insecurity.

Since her younger siblings were born, her parents never showed her a kind face again. Even when they smiled at her, it was only when she was around her siblings.

From her earliest memories, she had to help her younger siblings with their bottles and diapers, make them laugh, and prevent them from crying. Otherwise, she would receive her parents' disapproving looks and days of indifference.
