That was unbelievable. Daisie scratched her cheek. “What are your terms?’Sunny said, “Nothing much. All I want is for Cam to find a man who matches her. I think your brother is a good man, and I hope that I’m not wrong about it.”Daisie suddenly felt guilty. “But it doesn’t look like Cameron wants to go to Bassburgh. I don’t know if it’s a good idea to insist that she goes.”Even though Sunny did this for her happiness, it felt as though forcing her to go to Bassburgh for her brother wasn’t the right way to do it.Sunny smiled. “No one can make her do something if she doesn’t want to. I have no idea how, but what if she wants to go?”At least she wasn’t forced to go.Even if they tricked her, there was no point if she wasn’t willing. He knew his daughter well enough.She just didn’t want to admit her feelings to anyone.The next day, after breakfast, the party went to the pier. The ship that was docked there would leave at 10:15 a.m.Sunny, Mahina, and the butler sent them
Daisie walked up to Cameron and sat beside her. “You’re right.”Cameron lowered her head as she sank deep in thought. “But your eldest brother didn’t go with you, while your second brother accompanied you when you went to study in Yaramoor?” She chuckled and replied, “Yeah, my eldest brother didn’t go with us. He has been living in Stoslo and only went to Yaramoor to keep us company for a while after graduating.”“I see…” Daisie went closer to her and asked, “Why does it seem to me that you’re interested in my brother?”Cameron was stumped and turned her head sideways. “That is impossible. I’ll never be interested in your brother.” Daisie decided not to expose her. She thought of something and pulled her phone out. “Let me show you some pictures.”“What pictures?” asked Cameron.Daisie flipped through her albums and handed her phone to Cameron.Cameron took it, and she was shocked when she flipped through them. “This is…”“These are the pictures from when my eldest broth
Even if Nollace did not care about it, he was the only son in the Knowles. What if his parents wanted a boy?Daisie started to make up those dramatic scenes where a rich family only wanted a boy inside of her head.Nollace caressed her cheek with his hand and chuckled. “Don’t worry. My parents like girls very much. Just look at my mother. She likes you more than she likes me.”Daisie lowered her head and looked at the knife wound on his body. She ran her finger over that bumpy scar, and she figured that he must have gotten it when he went missing. "It hurts, doesn't it?"Nollace grabbed her hand and kissed her forehead. “This is nothing compared to giving birth.”She was stunned for a moment. Then, she leaned on his chest and said, “If you're not afraid of pain, I won't be either.”He chuckled. “I’m just worried that you might cry.”Daisie was rendered speechless. Meanwhile, Cameron stayed in her cabin until the evening. She was starving, so she came out of her cabin.She fol
Cameron turned her head sideways and replied, “I’m not.” Waylon chuckled. “This is new, Cameron. I thought you were used to seeing men's bodies since you have been staying under the same roof with other men the whole time?”Cameron turned her head around to meet his gaze. “Are you serious? I’m not embarrassed at all. I dare you to strip yourself naked.”Waylon looked at her silently. With a triumphant grin on her face, Cameron went closer to him and said, “I thought you wouldn't feel embarrassed at all, Wayne. But it seems like I was wrong. It's okay. I don't mind seeing it again.”She was going to win against Waylon once, even if it meant throwing away her own dignity.Cameron coiled her finger around the button on his shirt. However, before she could do anything, he stopped her and narrowed his eyes. “Are you serious about this?”It went without saying that Cameron was just joking with him. After all, what if he was even more shameless than she was? She just wanted to put hi
Waylon opened his eyes slowly and turned his head around to look at her. Cameron forced a smile on her face and said, “Can I discuss something with you?”As if he could read her mind, he said, “Let me guess. You’re going to ask me for money so that you can book a hotel?”Her smile disappeared as she replied, “Forget about it. I still owe you a lot of money, so I shouldn’t borrow money from you anymore.”Waylon handed an access card to Cameron.She was stunned and looked at him in confusion. “You can stay wherever you want in Bassburgh.” Waylon took in her surprised gaze and chuckled. “We won’t let you stay on the street.”When she did not accept the access card, Waylon continued. “If you don’t want it, then I’m taking it back.”“Wait!” Cameron hastily took over the card and said, “I didn’t say I don’t want it.” She needed to spend money to live in a hotel, so of course, she would settle down for anything. Besides, she didn't want to stay in someone else's home either. After
Cameron took a sip from the tea and nodded. “I will.”Maisie sent the maid to prepare a guest room for Cameron. Just when Cameron was about to say something, Waylon chimed in. “Mom, she’s not staying here.”“Why?” asked Maisie.Daisie looked at Waylon and asked, “Are you going to let Cameron stay in a hotel?”“Nope.” Waylon replied calmly, “She’s going to stay in Emperon.”Maisie seemed to have realized something and smiled, “Alright then. Emperon is pretty near Taylorton. Daisie and Nollace are staying in Taylorton, so they can also take care of Cameron if she stays in Emperon.”After they finished their lunch, Nollace and Waylon followed Nolan to his study room.Daisie brought Cameron to the garden. As if she remembered something, she asked meaningfully, “Cameron, are you really not going to stay here?”“Yeah. I just don’t feel comfortable staying here…”“You’re not avoiding my eldest brother, are you?” Ever since they came down from the ship, she could sense something had h
Upon catching this scene, Cameron’s cheeks flushed instantly. She pulled her hair out of his hands immediately and combed it. “You actually kissed my hair? What the hell is wrong with you? I’ll kick your *ss if you continue to give me such crap!”Waylon sneered and stared at her.Her face obviously looked like a tomato at the moment, and it seemed that she was trying to act all tough and wanted to threaten him. She was so innocent that he could not help but want to tease and bully her.His gaze landed on her lips, and he rubbed his finger across her lips. “How do you plan to beat me up, Cameron?”She grabbed the hem of his collar with a fierce expression. “If you dare to lay a hand or a leg on me again, I’ll skin you alive.”He gave off a faint smirk. “Okay, then I won’t move my hands or legs from now on.”A warm sensation spread over her lips just as Cameron was in a daze.Her pupils constricted, and it felt like there was a torrent flowing through her entire body, which made h
After the pastries were baked, Daisie packed some for Freyja. And since Nollace was about to head out, he drove her to the hospital.Before she got out of the car, she turned around and kissed him on the cheek. “I’ll go up first.”Nollace let off a faint chuckle and stroked her on the cheek. “Okay.”Daisie got out of the car, put on a mask and cap, and walked straight toward the hospital’s entrance.Nollace watched as she walked away from the car, picked up the phone, and contacted Edison.Daisie lowered her head and avoided the crowd while finding her way to the gynecology department. She then walked toward Freyja’s ward, and just as she was about to push the door of the ward open, Colton came out of the ward.The two collided at the entryway.Colton frowned and was about to say something, only to realize that it was his sister. “Daisie?”Daisie pulled down her mask. “Colton, you’re here?”Colton also knew that they had come back from the East Islands, so he was not surprised
