“Mr. Callum?” Camryn called out in bewilderment.“I don’t like flowers, and I don’t have a girlfriend. Telling you to send a bouquet over was just a way for you to get yourself acquainted with the route to come see me. That way, it’ll be easier for you in the future.”Callum explained with a smile, “But your silly look is quite funny. Since you amused me, I’ll treat you to dinner. Let’s go.”Camryn scolded him in her heart, ‘You’re the fool!’He did not play by the rules. She was completely flabbergasted by him.On the surface, Camryn recovered her calm demeanor and followed Callum out while declining his invitation to dinner.“You’ll just order takeout if you go back anyway. It’s not good to eat takeouts often. If you don’t want me to treat you, then you treat me instead. I gave you two big business opportunities, so it’s natural you treat me to a meal.”Camryn choked. After a moment, she said, “I only have a few hundred dollars with me. I might not be able to treat you, Mr. Ca
“Zachary,” Callum greeted.Zachary glanced at Camryn and the bouquet of flowers she was holding, then his eyes returned to his younger brother. He sighed faintly, hugged Serenity’s waist, and said, “We’re leaving now.”Without waiting for Callum to reply, he left with Serenity in his arms.Serenity turned to look back as she walked.Zachary used his hand to push her face forward and said in a low voice, “I’m more handsome than Callum.”“I’m not looking at Callum; I’m looking at Camryn. Wait, why do you sound jealous?”“You’re looking at another man. Even if he’s my brother, I’ll still get jealous.”Serenity was speechless. “If we have a son in the future and I treat our son well, will you be jealous of him too?”“I won’t get jealous if we have a daughter.”“I also want to have a daughter and break your family’s record. Who knows if I’ll have the chance? I’d better prepare for a son. If you’re going to be jealous of your own son, then I hope you’re prepared to be jealous for th
The York family had more boys than the Johnson family in Annenburg. Zachary secretly vowed to find a particularly powerful fortune teller to do a divination for their family. Was there a problem that caused their family to be unable to conceive girls?“Babe, what do you think of Callum and Camryn now? I think Callum is courting death.”Serenity changed the topic.She did not want her husband to keep bringing up the mention of having a baby girl and stress her out.“They’re a good match. It’d be better if Ms. Newman regained her sight. What do you mean Callum is courting death?”Zachary still did not know what his brother had done.Serenity told him, “He called the flower shop and told Camryn to send him a bouquet of flowers. And he told her not to let anyone lead her and asked her to walk by herself. He’s not considerate at all of the fact that Camryn can’t see.“Isn’t that courting death? I bet he’ll regret his decision every day in the future.”Zachary felt a flush rose to hi
Callum booked a private room.After the two sat down at the table, he turned his head to look at the waiter, who immediately handed him the menu.The waiter thought in confusion, ‘Mr. Callum eats here every day. Why does he need the menu?’Callum did not care what the waiter was thinking. He opened the menu, read the names of the dishes and the prices to Camryn, and let her order.“You can order whatever you want, Mr. Callum.”The meal was Camryn’s treat, so she told him to order what he wanted.“You only brought a few hundred dollars. I’m worried the food I order will be too expensive.”Camryn was silent before saying, “Didn’t you say you could lend me the money?”Callum laughed. “I did say that, but you look like you don’t want to owe me money. We’ll just order some cheaper dishes.”Camryn did not object as she listened to him listing off a few dishes that were not too expensive.The waiter took down the orders and said respectfully, “Please wait a moment.”Callum said, “T
Callum did not speak.Camryn remained silent when she did not get an answer.She could feel Callum’s gaze on her.After a while, the waiter served the food.“Let’s eat.”Callum finally opened his mouth but did not answer Camryn.Camryn could not see, so he filled her bowl with soup and placed it in front of her. “Have some soup first. I’ll serve you the other dishes when you’re done.”“Thank you, Mr. Callum.”“You’re welcome.”Callum also served himself a bowl of soup and ate while occasionally putting more food on Camryn’s plate.Camryn usually ordered fast food where all the side dishes were placed together, so she could just eat slowly.Now that she was eating with Callum, she did not know where the food was. Even when she reached out to stab the food with her fork, she did not know what she would be eating.She could only accept Callum’s care.If it could be avoided, she never wanted to eat with Callum again in her life.“Do you like shrimp?” Callum asked as he finish
Callum took Camryn out of the hotel and said he would send her back to the flower shop.“Thank you, but there’s no need. You can just help me stop a bus that will pass by my shop.”Callum thought of how she would have to come out often and take the bus by herself, so he said, “All right. I’ll take you to the bus stop.”“Thank you.”Camryn thanked him again.Since she met him, the words she said most often to him were ‘thank you’.Fortunately, Bus No. 6 was arriving just as they walked to the stop. Callum helped Camryn hail the bus and watched her board before turning around to head back to the hotel.He met his loving brother and sister-in-law in the small parking lot in front of the hotel again.“Callum, where’s Ms. Newman?” Serenity asked right off the bat when she only saw him without Camryn.She knew that Callum and Camryn ate together.“She went back.”Callum stopped to answer Serenity and asked Zachary, “Are you sending Serenity back?”“Yeah,” Zachary answered faintly
“Even if you give me grass, I’ll like it as long as it’s from you.”Serenity said playfully, “We’re going to your villa tonight. When we get back, I’ll go to the backyard and cut a handful of grass for you.”Zachary pinched her pretty nose indulgently.If she dared give him grass, then he would accept it.He was telling the truth. He would like anything as long as it was from her.On the way to Spring Blossoms, Zachary suddenly said, “Serenity, come with me to a banquet hosted by the Marshalls in a couple of days. The venue is at Wiltspoon Hotel.”Serenity looked at him and smiled. “How rare for the great Mr. York to attend a banquet. I heard that Mr. York never joins banquets. They must be very close to the York family if they were able to invite you.”Zachary flicked her forehead and corrected her, “The York family is also your family. You’re my wife. In the future, you don’t have to listen to other people. If you have any questions, just ask your man directly.“The host is t
Serenity went to her hometown today to handle the issue of the house. She had not asked Jasmine about the date of her engagement yet.However, Zachary already knew.He told her, “Ms. Sox and Josh’s engagement is on 20th of March. It’s already mid-March now, so it’ll be happening soon. Their engagement party will most likely be a grand event since the Bucham family is large and they have many friends.”Even people who were not close to the Bucham family would send gifts out of respect.After all, many people used the Buchams’ intelligence services before.“Their wedding will also be before ours.”Zachary continued, “Their wedding might be before or after the 1st of May. Josh said they were getting their marriage license right after the engagement. He’s in a rush.”Serenity and Zachary got their marriage license first, so they could choose a good day for the wedding later. They were not in a hurry. However, Josh and Jasmine were doing it the traditional way, so Josh was naturally
