Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 2467

Seeing this, Camelia blinked and said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I came here today to chat with you."

"Chat with me?" Fade was a little confused. They weren't very close. He didn't think they would have anything to talk about.

She seemed to have seen through his doubts. She took out a round stone and put it on the table. "I want to talk to you about this." Seeing the stone, his eyes suddenly lit up. He looked at her and said, "Camelia, you mean... General Xu."

"General? Has he become a general now?" She looked into the distance with some reminiscence in her eyes.

"Yes, he became a general ten years ago," he replied.

"Has it already been ten years?" Her face looked a little sad. She paused for a moment before looking at him and asked, "How is he doing now?"

"Um, he's alright. He's been pretty successful with his career, and he's really strong too." He nodded.

She shook her head and said, "That's not what I'm asking. What I mean to ask is... Is he married?"

"Oh!" He was taken aback. Then, he shook his head and said, "General Xu has never been married. He doesn't even have a girlfriend."

"I see!" She could not help smiling gently. There seemed to be a hint of nostalgia in her eyes. "He is still the same as always."

Seeing this, coupled with the rock, Fade could definitely guess it.

Jaguar must have had a past with Camelia. Otherwise, she wouldn't be acting like this.

However, it was not appropriate for him to ask about these things. Hence, he could only sit quietly aside.

She was lost in her thoughts for a moment before returning to her senses. She looked at him and asked quietly, "Do you want to know about what happened between Jaguar and I?" "Uh... If you are willing to tell, then I..."

"It was 20 years ago. At that time, he was just like you. He represented his country as a genius in martial arts and came to the inner island to train. Meanwhile, I was in a similar position as Nestor, a mere deacon of Green Wood Hall."

"At that time, I was a team leader, and Jaguar was on my team. He performed very well and excelled from the start. He became famous right away. However, he didn't match up to where you are now." After a pause, she continued, "I decided almost immediately that I had to get him to join Green Wood Hall. Although there were many other Martial Halls competing for him, I was confident." "That was because I could tell that he had feelings for me too."

"After that, the examination went on as usual and it concluded smoothly. As expected, he came in first. Just like you, each Hall was dying to recruit him."

"At the time, he promised me that he would join Green Wood Hall and be with me."

"However, later on, he learned that joining the Hall meant that he would never be able to leave this place. Thus, he hesitated."

"I kept persuading him. Even the chief at the time agreed to loosen up the restrictions on him and give him a little freedom."

"But in the end, he still chose to refuse and he returned to the secular world where the spiritual energy is so low."

Hearing this, Fade was a bit surprised.

This wasn't anything like what Jaguar had told him at all.

According to him, the reason he left the inner island was because none of the Halls chose him. He had no choice but to leave in regret.

However, now, Camelia was saying that Jaguar had refused to join a Martial Hall for the sake of his freedom.

Seeing that he was silent, she continued slowly, "Do you know why he returned?"

"I..." He did not know how to answer.

That was because, as far as he knew, Jaguar had no children, his parents died early, and he didn't have any other relations. It was

unlikely that he left because net

he

missed his friends and family on the outside.

Moreover, Camelia had already mentioned that she and him had grown close. They were even in the talks of marriage. Yet, he still chose to leave in the end.

With a long sigh, she said, "He told me that the reason he wanted to go back was simple. It was only one sentence."

"He wanted to go back to serve the country that raised him."

"Um..." Hearing this, he felt somewhat shocked.

These kinds of patriotic words typically seen in books seemed oddly meaningless in the real world. No one ever really took these sorts of things to heart. In fact, few made the effort to even remembero something like that.

Even Fade himself might not be able to do so if he had been in the same situation as Jaguar.

Fade didn't see himself as a bad

Inet

person. He upheld justice and punished those who deserved it. However, he didn't think he was a benevolent man either. Just like everyone else, he too had feelings and personal vendettas.

There were even times where he was willing to bend the rules out of his own selfish impulses.

Yet, he didn't think this was wrong. After all, most people were exactly like that.

However, compared with a selfless man like Jaguar, his selfishness seemed more pronounced.

For a moment, he was silent.

Lamella sensed what he was thinking and shook her head. She said slowly, "Back then, I told him I understood, and I let him go. However, the truth is, until now, I still can't understand why he left!"

"I want to know if he has ever regretted his decision." She looked at him emotionally.

His lips quivered, but he couldn't give an answer. After all, he couldn't possibly know how Jaguar felt in his heart.

"I'm sorry. I've lost my composure." She lowered her head and wiped her cheeks.

Then, she stood up and said to him, "It's getting late. I'm going back. Have a good rest!"

He was dazed for a moment. Then, he stood up and walked her to the door.

Standing at the door, she turned to him and said, "This time, when you go back, I want you to bring him a message from me."

"What is it?" He asked.

She responded, "If he is given the chance, I want to know if he will be willing to start over with me."

After that, she took out a small jade pendant and handed it to him. "Please help me bring this to him."

"Rest assured, Lamella. I will," he replied.

"Thank you." She nodded before taking her leave.

He watched her leave and was about to close the door.

Suddenly, he heard her mutter, "If you had Fade's strength, perhaps we could have had a different ending!"

"General Xu and Camelia, they..." For a moment, he had mixed feelings, and an indescribable feeling rose in his heart.
