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
Zachary was present too. He was still haughty and cold in the eyes of outsiders, and he had an imposing aura that made everyone in the flower shop feel uneasy. Serenity did not linger and pulled Zachary out of the shop after giving him the bouquet.The sky darkened soon after they left Spring Blossoms.Serenity called her sister and chatted with her nephew for a while before hanging up.Sonny waited until his aunt ended the call as he wanted to play with the phone, but unfortunately, his mother took it away.“Mom, I want to watch Peppa Pig.”Liberty tucked the phone back into her pocket and said, “If you want to watch cartoons, I’ll turn on the TV for you. You can’t watch it on the phone.“You can only watch TV for half an hour.”Sonny pouted. When he saw his mother hold the TV remote control and turn on the TV, he compromised and said, “Okay.”After turning on the TV for her son, Liberty went back into the kitchen to prepare the ingredients for tomorrow morning.The doorbell
“What blocks did he give to you? Let me see. I’ll help you put them together.”Sonny immediately slid down from his father’s arms, ran to a shelf that was filled with toys, and took out a box of Legos he had not been able to assemble.Hank saw the set of blocks and cursed Duncan for being sinister in his heart.Sonny was still young. He was not even three yet. Even if he was smart, how could he be able to put together something that difficult?Duncan deliberately gave Sonny a challenging set of Legos so he could have the opportunity to teach Sonny and get closer to Liberty, right?How shameless!He was using Sonny to get close to Liberty!Hank cursed Duncan a million times in his heart.Liberty invited the couple to sit down, poured them each a cup of warm water, and said, “I’m busy. Just leave the invitation there. If I have time that day, I’ll bring Sonny and attend your wedding.”Since they were not worried that she would ruin the wedding and invited her, she would join.W
Liberty could not be bothered less with Jessica. Jessica could not get any useful news, so she had no choice but to return to Hank’s side bitterly.At the same time, she looked around the place.Although the space was not large, Liberty tidied it up and decorated it in a cozy manner.Jessica had to admit that Liberty was much better than her at housekeeping.Hank was teaching Sonny how to piece up the building blocks since he seldom accompanied his son. When he looked at the pile of scattered blocks and the assembly instructions, he found that it really was difficult to build.He would never have the patience to construct something like this.“Do you really know how to build that?” Jessica asked him.“Why don’t you give it a try?”Hank was having a headache and snapped at his wife when he heard her.Sonny looked up at Jessica, then at his father, and asked an innocent and pure question, “Dad, why is she always following you?”Hank was speechless.Before he could answer, Jess
