?Chapter 732:
Seeing how particr she was, Ruben and Jarrett had already decided to support her as long as she needed.<fn5af0> Original content can be found at find~novel</fn5af0>
But then, unexpectedly, Eva announced she wanted to get married and had already chosen someone—Arthur Campbell.
The Campbell and Evans families had been linked through business for years, and their rtionship was considered strong. At an event, Eva found herself immediately drawn to Arthur and dered she would marry no one else.
The elders of both families had hoped for a union like this, so no objections were raised. Sadly, Arthur had already given his heart to another woman.
Rumors spread that Arthur cared deeply for a woman from an ordinary background with no powerful connections. Arthur’s father, Paul Campbell, firmly opposed the match.
At that time, Paul was still the head of the Campbell family, so Arthur could not defy him. Though Arthur stopped insisting on marrying the woman he loved, his loyalty to her never wavered.
Arthur brought her to live quietly in his private mansion, away from public eyes. The Campbell family never formally recognized them as husband and wife, but they lived together as any married couple would.
The mansion was heavily guarded, so no one outside the household knew what this woman looked like. That remained true until she gave birth to a son named Milton. Only then could people begin to imagine her appearance.
Milton didn’t resemble Arthur much, but he was exceptionally handsome and stood out for his sharp mind.
Arthur often said Milton took after his mother. Because of Milton’s looks, people believed his mother must have been stunning, making it clear why Arthur had loved her so deeply.
The Campbell family never epted the woman Arthur loved as one of their own, so when Milton was born, Arthur kept both his beloved woman and son…
away from the rest of his family, almost as if they were not connected to the Campbell family at all.
Paul ordered Arthur to bring Milton home after learning about his grandson’s existence. Though reluctant, Arthur eventually took Milton to see Paul.

Arthur had hoped that, for Milton’s sake, his family might finally ept his marriage to the woman he loved. But Paul’s only intention was to take Milton away from his mother.
When Arthur learned of his father’s n, he was overwhelmed with anger. He stormed back to his private mansion with Milton and never let Paul see his child again, nor did he return to live with the Campbell family. Because of this, the rtionship between Paul and Arthur grew distant, and they only spoke when business required it.
Later, Eva crossed paths with Arthur and was immediately drawn to him. Paul noticed her feelings and saw an opportunity to reconnect with his son, so he tried to set them up. But Arthur firmly declined, no matter how many times Paul tried.
Upset and disappointed, Eva struggled to ept the reality. After all her carefulness in choosing whom to like, she had finally found a man who caught her interest, only to learn he loved another woman and already had a child. Her pride as an Evans remained strong, and she believed she did not need to marry a man like Arthur.
Still, she could not let go of Arthur. There was something about him that captivated her heart and made her other admirers seem inferior. She resolved to marry Arthur no matter what. If his heart could not be hers, at least she would have the rest of him.
