“Mila, we’ve decided to break up. We can still be friends, though.” Camila’s head whipped over to Forrest.

His face darkened, but he still said nothing.

Camila was at a loss. A relationship consisted of two people, and they had to put in efforts in order to make it work.

In the case of Forrest and Laura, they were faced with the challenge of their contrasting family backgrounds. There was also the matter of Forrest’s mother.

Camila understood Laura’s position. She didn’t want to give in, and that was perfectly valid.

Laura was a woman who hailed from a Lacking background compared to Forrest. It was only natural for her to want to secure her survival in the Long run.

Unfortunately, as much as Forrest wanted to keep her, he didn’t want to make an enemy of his mother, either. He was caught in the middle. Camila couldn’t blame him for having difficulty in choosing, either.

“We wanted to tell you ourselves because you are our friend,” Laura said.

Camila nodded solemnly.

She didn’t know what else she could say.

There was no going back from something like this.

Besides, Forrest and Laura were both consenting adults who could think for themselves and make their own decisions.

“It’s an amicable split, we didn’t fight or anything. We’ll still be friends in the future.” Laura shot Forrest a pointed look before adding, “Right?”

Forrest simply averted his gaze and kept his silence.

“Well, I’ve said everything I came to say. I’m Leaving now. You can get back to work, Mila.” Laura was calm from beginning to end.

The period of turmoil had come and gone.

Now, she just wanted to leave it all behind and move forward in her life.

Once she was gone, Forrest made to leave, too.

But Camila stopped him.

“Forrest.”

Forrest stopped without looking back and said, “Don’t ask any questions. She can do whatever she wants.”

He was clear enough. So Camila sighed and said resignedly, “Take care of yourself, Forrest.”

Forrest took a deep breath and strode away.
