“Who are you referring to as shameless? How can you blame me for that?”“Alright, we’ll blame that on me.” Waylon rubbed the corner of her eyes. His thumb then slipped down to her chin, pinched it, and lifted her face. “I shouldn’t have left you, an idiot in the kitchen, alone at home. For safety’s sake, I should hire a housekeeper and get them to come here when I’m not at home. She would come here to take care of you, lest you get yourself killed someday in the future.”At that moment, a rumble from her stomach responded to the suggestion.Waylon chuckled. “Are you hungry?”Cameron responded with a hum.Waylon did not want her to stay hungry while she waited for him to clean up the mess. “The kitchen won’t be ready to use for a while, so let’s order takeout.”After ordering takeout, Cameron sat at the table and gobbled the food. Although the takeout did not taste as good as Waylon’s cooking, it did not taste too bad.It took Waylon an hour and a half to clean up the kitchen. He
Waylon’s gaze was fixed on the face that looked like that of a dirty cat that had just run out of a coal mine and had rubbed its face in ashes without knowing it.Cameron's cheeks warmed up upon seeing that he was staring at her. “Why are you looking at me?”Waylon could not help but laugh out loud. “You’re the dignified heir of the Southerns, so why would you look like a dirty cat?”The original intimate atmosphere was completely interrupted by Waylon’s words, and Cameron pushed him away immediately. “Who are you referring to as a cat!?”He held her in his arms. “Are you doubting me?”Cameron bit his shoulder but did not exert too much force. With that, it opened a chance for Waylon to pinch her cheek and kiss her on the lips.Cameron was stunned because of the ambush and was picked up horizontally before she could react.Cameron struggled in his arms, “Wayne, let me down!”Waylon carried her into the bathroom, and Cameron instantly saw her face in the mirror and covered it wi
Cameron sat up and turned on her cell phone when the door closed.While Waylon had been talking on the phone earlier, she had taken out her phone and seen the news while hiding under the blanket.‘Minzy Holland is the future eldest daughter-in-law of the Goldmanns?’Cameron tutted.‘I’m really sorry, but I’ve reserved the title.’At 7:00 p.m., at the Glitz Club…Waylon was sitting in a private room. There was no one else in the private room except his bodyguards.Soon after that, Mallon appeared and walked toward Waylon with a smile. “Mr. Goldmann, are you looking for me?”Waylon asked Mallon to take a seat and motioned to one of the bodyguards to pour him some wine.Under the dimmed light from the lamp in the room, no one could distinguish the expression on Waylon’s face, whether he was joyous or infuriated.He then crossed his legs and leaned back in the chair. “Mr. Holland, you’re one of the business partners of the Dominic Group. I asked to meet you here for a reason, and
“Hmm... Stop it...” Cameron pushed him away. She was so sleepy that she could not even open her eyes, and everything happening around her was blurred out to her.Waylon’s Adam’s apple twitched, and he loosened his collar. “Look at you, sleeping as soundly as a baby does.”He rolled onto the bed, took her into his arms, and stroked her cheek with his palm. “When will you make our relationship known to the public?”On the other side of the city, in the hotel…Minzy was sitting on the couch, going through the news article. She had long known that the media would publish the news. Reading how the reporters and editors brought the relationship between her and Waylon to life, she pursed her lips tightly.She was afraid that Waylon would release a statement to clarify their relationship, but she also hoped he would not.‘With this news, can I consider myself somehow related to him now?’The doorbell rang all of a sudden.Minzy got up and walked up to the door to open it. She was surpr
Mallon left the room after saying what he had to say.The next day, early in the morning…A shimmer of light pierced through the curtains and shone on the head of the bed. Cameron turned over, hugged someone beside her, and suddenly opened her eyes.Waylon lay beside her on his side, propping his hand against the side of his forehead as if he had been awake for a long time.He fiddled with the ends of her hair and kissed it. “You’ve woken up?”Cameron closed her eyes. “No, I haven’t.”He smirked, turned over, and covered her with his body in an instant.Cameron opened her eyes immediately and pressed her hands against his chest. “Wayne Goldmann!”His kiss stopped at the corner of her lips. “What’s up?”“I want to eat The Attic’s short ribs.”The last time they ordered takeout from that place, she got to try the short ribs once, and she really liked them.Waylon chuckled, knowing that she was changing the subject. “Alright, I’ll go and buy them.”He was about to get up, but
Seeing that Cameron was so jealous, Waylon laughed out loud. “Who’s the one who told me that we won’t be making our relationship public? How do you plan to explain this to the media and public if we are caught and photographed by paparazzi?”Cameron choked on her own words. She suddenly remembered that she had said something about not wanting to make things between them public before this.Waylon raised his eyebrows slightly. “Is that all you have to say?”She was a little embarrassed.‘I’m indeed the one who said that I didn't want to be made public back then, but I’m also the one who’s demanding to make things public now. Did I just smack myself in the face?’“You’re going back on your own words now, and I’m confused about what I should believe and ignore.” Waylon propped his hand against the side of his forehead and gave off a clearly satisfied expression accompanied by traces of innocence.“If our marriage were to be made public, you might start to regret marrying me and ask
#Am I the only one who thinks that this old man is trying his best to help his daughter cut ties with the eldest heir of the Goldmanns? Could it be that he’s a very promiscuous man?##Oh my, now that you mentioned it, when Mr. Goldmann attended the variety show with Daisie, the way he looked at and interacted with Ms. Southern seemed rather flirtatious, but he’s now having a private meal with another woman. Speaking of which, the second heir of the Goldmanns and Daisie have both settled down, and the eldest brother is the only one left. It’s hard not to let my imagination run wild.##Mr. Goldmann is giving me a playboy vibe now. He seems to treat all women too well...#At Blackgold…Waylon closed the lid of his laptop after watching the news regarding Mallon’s clarification. As for the gossip on the Internet, he straight-up ignored all of them.Leonardo knocked on the door at that moment.He lifted his gaze. “Come in.”Leonardo pushed the door into the office and asked, “Mr. Gol
‘Pfft! Wayne Goldmann, what a blessed b*stard you are! A pretty lady is down here fighting for a chance just to deliver a meal into your hands!’A faint smile escaped through the corners of Minzy’s lips. “Yes, but Mr. Goldmann isn’t in, so even if you’ve come all the way here, I’m afraid there’s nothing you can do about his absence.”“He’s not here at the company?” Cameron looked slightly bewildered.“Why would I lie to you? He’s really not in—”Cameron did not even wait for her to finish the sentence. She took out her cell phone, dialed his number, and asked, “Where are you?”Minzy’s expression stiffened slightly.Cameron then hung up the phone. “He just told me that he’s in the office. Ms. Holland, lying is not a good habit that you should have.”Minzy’s expression looked even more embarrassed. She did not expect Cameron to call Waylon directly in order to confirm his location. That was a direct smack in her face.‘Wayne deliberately didn’t want to see me, but he’s more than
