Waylon greeted him with a handshake. “Mr. Warren, sorry to have kept you waiting.”Herald waved his hand. “Nah, we’ve just started. Come, let me introduce you to some of my business partners.”Herald led Waylon to several older men and introduced him enthusiastically, “All of them have certain levels of cooperation with Dominic Constructions. This is Mr. Nixon Weeber, Mr. Torres Xanthos, and Mr. Mallon Holland.”Waylon nodded to each of them.Nixon laughed. “I’ve always wanted to meet the second heir of the Goldmanns. Now that I get to meet you in person, you look as impressive as rumors have it. As expected of the son of the legendary Nolan Goldmann.”Waylon responded modestly, “You’re flattering me, Mr. Weeber.”Nixon sighed. “If not for the fact that you’re already unavailable and occupied, I’d definitely introduce my daughter to you.”Torres added, “Isn’t there another young heir? Mr. Goldmann’s elder brother? He must look a lot like Mr. Goldmann.”Waylon picked up the wine
Waylon smiled. “As long as you don’t mind.”Minzy paused, then smiled. “Of course I don’t.”Waylon looked at his watch and said, “It’s getting late. I’m heading home.”Minzy nodded. After he left, Minzy’s eyes shone.When Waylon got back to Emperon, it was already 10:30 p.m. He switched off the lights in the living room, went upstairs, and noticed the light coming from under the door, lighting up a small part of the dark corridor. ‘Is she still awake?’Waylon knocked, but there was no response. He pushed the door open and was shocked at the sight.Cameron was sleeping with her long legs crossed on the blanket. Half the blanket was on the floor while she wore a silky nightgown that might expose too much if she moved. He clenched his jaw. Was she testing his self-control? It wasn’t that great.Waylon stopped by the bed, leaned down, rested his hands on both sides, and planted a kiss on her lips without hesitation.Her eyes moved while she mumbled something.Waylon kissed d
Waylon left the room. Cameron frowned and fell deep in thought. Meanwhile, it was afternoon in Yaramoor. Freyja returned from her lectures. She wasn’t very comfortable leaving Colton and her father together because she knew Colton didn’t like her father. Her father was a softie, so it would be a disaster if Colton made him cry.She took out her keys, opened the door, and was immediately hit by the smell of alcohol. The two men had gotten some snacks and started drinking. They had finished up two dozen bottles of beer. Brandon had even taken out two bottles of wine that they were keeping. One of them was already empty, while the other had less than 1/3 left. Maybe he had drunk a little too much as he was crying like a child while holding Colton and an empty bottle.He said he felt sorry about this and that, as well as that he was useless. Colton had drunk a lot as well and was resting his head on his hand, not listening to what Brandon was saying. Colton poured him more wi
The next day…When Freyja woke up, her throat was dry, and she didn’t have the energy to get out of bed. Colton brought breakfast in on a tray and saw the marks on her neck. He was very happy with his ‘work’. “You’re up quite early.”He placed the food on the table. On top of the simple breakfast, there was a bowl of soup too. “I was worried that you would be too tired, so I made you some soup.”Freyja was curious. “Do people eat soup for breakfast?”He sat on the bed, scooped up some soup, and blew on it. “It will make you feel better.”He brought the soup to her mouth, so she drank it, then pointed at the tray. “I want the egg. Peel it for me.”Colton placed the bowl down and did as she asked. He fed her before, but he would say something back along the lines that she was ordering him around. But now, his ‘obedient’ attitude made her feel awkward.Realizing that she was staring at him, Colton looked up. “What’s wrong?”Freyja leaned in. “Did you do something? Did you beat
Minzy looked around. Even though Waylon didn’t have feelings for her, she couldn’t help but want to get his attention. He hadn’t announced his relationship with Cameron, and they weren’t married yet, so she assumed she still had a chance. “Mr. Goldmann, would you want to go catch a movie this weekend? I can’t find anyone to go with me, and you’re the only person I know in Bassburgh.”Minzy shyly invited him. Waylon raised his brows and thought about it. The driver looked into the rearview mirror. “Sir, there’s a car that’s following us.”Waylon was calm and seemed to know who was in the car, so he curled his lips.Minzy turned around and looked nervous. “Following us? Is it someone we know?”Waylon didn’t mind. “Who knows? Maybe.”When Minzy saw that he wasn’t anxious about being followed, said it might be someone they knew, and was looking very calm and collected, she guessed that he knew who it was. She wanted to know if it was the person she thought it was…The car w
Waylon was the first man to reject her.He was also the first who never showed any admiration or thought about her.That was why she couldn’t forget him even after returning to Kong Port. She felt that the men around her weren’t even half as good as he was. Minzy sadly returned to her hotel and suddenly saw a flash. She paused and realized that someone was taking pictures of her.She was going to stop it when she suddenly remembered something and stopped in her tracks.…Waylon returned to Emperon and saw that Cameron’s shoes weren’t there. He called her, but she didn’t pick up. He guessed where she went, so he sent a text to Daisie. Meanwhile, at the martial arts center…After reading the text from Waylon, Daisie turned to Cameron, who was punching the punching bag. When Cameron went to see her, Daisie had already guessed that it was because she had a spat with him. It must have been something serious to make her so angry. Daisie: [What did you do?]Waylon: [Colton
“I guess I should show you what I’m capable of!” Instead of calming them down, the onlookers joined the fray and worsened the situation.Cameron was already in a bad mood. Now that someone had offered himself to let her vent her spleen, her eyes instantly glowed up with happiness. “Honestly, a black belt in Taekwondo is nothing. There's nothing to brag about.”Conroy scoffed. He had never seen such an arrogant woman before. “Girl, don’t you think you’ve taken it a little bit too far?”Crossing her arms in front of her chest, Cameron said, “Hah, bragging is for losers. A true master will never give their opponent any chance to fight back.”Conroy finally flew into a rage after being repeatedly insulted by Cameron. He rolled his sleeves and said, “I’ve already given you a chance, but you don’t cherish it. It seems like I should teach you some manners today.”Cameron raised her hand and said, “Wait.” Conroy thought Cameron was scared and laughed triumphantly. “If you apologize to
“What?” When Daisie heard what Cameron said, she looked at Conroy and asked, “You tried to take advantage of her? How dare you!”After she finished speaking, she delivered a kick at him, sending him to the ground.Cameron stopped Daisie when she was about to follow up with another kick. “Alright, alright. That’s enough. I've already beaten him up. It'll be bullying if we continue to beat him.”Meanwhile, someone came into the building.When he saw the scene in the building, he narrowed his eyes. “What happened here?”The moment Cameron saw Waylon, her anger flared up again, and she kicked Conroy.Daisie wanted to stop her, but she was too slow. Conroy was stunned for a moment. After regaining his senses, he cried out loud, “Why did you kick me again?”‘How can she bully me like this!?’Waylon hurriedly went forward and grabbed Cameron. “Alright, stop now.” Cameron flung his hand away and said, “It’s none of your business.”Waylon narrowed his eyes and said, “It’s none of m
