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
“Everyone has a fair chance to compete. I presented you with the chance back then, but whether he would choose to be with you was never in my control. And you’re saying I was making a fool out of you? But think carefully, am I the person who told him not to choose you?”“You—”“What will you get from arguing with me about these details now? If you think you still have a fighting chance, just go to Wayne and ask him for an explanation instead of harassing me. You should know that I grew up in the East Islands, and I’ve already gotten very used to being rude and vulgar. So if anything were to go wrong, I’d certainly make a move. You being a man or a woman makes no difference to me.”After saying that, Cameron left her alone and left the scene.Minzy clenched her hands that were resting on her sides.‘How can she expect me to feel reconciled about my loss?!’Cameron was extremely angry as Minzy had inexplicably targeted her because of Waylon.‘That b*stard only knows how to attract
The receptionist left the scene in a hurry, hoping that she had not made any major mistake today!Waylon lowered his gaze, glanced at Cameron, who looked infuriated, and could not help but laugh out loud. “What’s the matter? You got so angry just because someone stopped you in the lobby?”Cameron crossed her arms. “This has nothing to do with being stopped or not.”He narrowed his eyes as if he had seen through her thoughts. “Did you run into Minzy?”“What do you think?”‘I thought so.’Waylon smiled. “What did she tell you?”Cameron turned her face away. “She? She told me a lot of stuff.”Waylon raised his arm and wrapped it around her shoulder. He did not even care if there was anyone in the lobby and led her into the elevator.When the elevator arrived at the administrative department, the department’s employees were utterly dumbfounded when they saw Waylon coming out of the elevator with a woman in his arms. Some of them even managed to recognize Cameron.‘Isn’t that the
It was to accuse her of being a two-faced person. Cameron was supposed to introduce Minzy to Waylon and make them a couple, but she ended up falling for her friend’s man and said that it was a fair competition.Because of that comment, everyone started speculating that the Ms. Southern in question was the female guest who had shown up on the variety show with Waylon. Some of the more rational netizens said that Cameron did nothing wrong. Minzy and Waylon weren’t dating, so it was a fair competition.However, some netizens thought that Cameron was deceitful because she was supposed to help Waylon and Minzy get together but ended up falling for him and stealing him. That wasn’t considered competing fairly. She had just ‘tricked’ her friend.The people who watched the talk show suddenly lost their interest in Cameron and turned into haters. In the end, the truth about Cameron pretending to be a man for over two decades on the East Islands was exposed. People were saying that she
Titus told everyone that he was Waylon’s great-grandfather, but no one believed him. Some even mocked him. He angrily used his son’s identity to verify his account. After ‘Ex-chairman and Founder of Blackgold’ were added to his profile, people who questioned and mocked him died away. At the same time, Leonardo found the poster's identity and even found their number. The person was obviously shocked to find out that they were being investigated. They contacted Minzy to extort money from her, or they would speak. Minzy was annoyed at the audacity of that person threatening her. “What do you mean? I’ve already given you $100,000?”The person pressed on. “That’s not going to be enough. They found me, Ms. Holland. You have a lot of money, so what is $100,000 more?”Minzy gasped. ‘They found him?’She clenched her jaw. “Sure, I’ll give you $100,000 more, but if you dare snitch on me, you won’t get away once I get back to the Kong Ports.”The person was relieved to get paid. “Don’
“Daisie.” Leah and Morrison walked up to her with wine glasses. “You look so pretty today.”“Thank you,” Daisie said with a smile.Leah lifted her wine glass. “I propose a toast. Morrison and I wish you a happy marriage.”Daisie clinked glasses with her. “Same goes for you and Morrison.”After the toast, Cameron walked up to Daisie with Waylon. Behind them were Freyja, Colton, Maisie, and Nolan.Maisie raised her hand and caressed her on the cheek. “You were great earlier today.”She giggled. “Really?”Nolan added, “You’ll forever be our dazzling pride, so yes.”Daisie grinned as if she was still the little princess of the family.Nollace came over. “Dad, Mom, a toast to the both of you. Thank you for letting me have Daisie’s hand.”“Consider yourself lucky.” Nolan snorted softly, picked up his wine glass, and clinked glasses with him. “You’d better treat my daughter well from now on.”Nollace glanced at Daisie. “Don’t worry. She’ll forever be my one and only.”Maisie chuck
In order to make way for the wedding carriage, other vehicles had been forbidden from accessing the route from the palace to the cathedral.Daisie looked out of the carriage—the streets were crowded with citizens, and they were all there to witness this grand scene.Nollace, sitting on the side, was wearing a double-breasted dark blue military jacket. He looked tall and broad, and there were two St. Patrick’s Stars on his epaulets, one on each side, a full set of medals on his chest, and other complicated decorations.He held the back of Daisie’s hand and smiled suddenly. “You have sweaty palms.”Daisie looked back at him and responded with a trembling voice, “I’m nervous.”He lifted her hand and kissed the back of her hand. “I’m here, so don’t be nervous. Just take it easy.”Daisie’s gaze landed on his wedding jacket. “You look nice in this uniform.”Nollace chuckled. “And my bride looks stunning too.”Arriving at the cathedral, Nollace was separated from Daisie. Accompanied b
“By the way, where’s Cameron?” asked Morrison.Waylon replied, “She’s accompanying her father on a stroll. I’m going to go meet them already, so I’ll leave you to yourselves for now. You can do whatever you want with your free time.”After saying that, he got up and left the couple.Morrison shook his head. “He’s changed now that he has a wife.”“You’re speaking as if you haven’t changed.” Leah got up instantly and left the restaurant.Morrison put his cup down and caught up to her immediately. “Hey, why would you leave me behind? Wait for me.”Maisie and Saydie came out of the private room and ran into Nolan and Quincy in the corridor.Quincy nodded. “Mrs. Goldmann.”Maisie stopped in front of Nolan, and Nolan grabbed her by her hand. “Have you finished catching up?”“Of course. Didn’t you want to go to the Hathaways’ villa with Dad in the afternoon?”Nolan smiled. “I was waiting for you. We’re just going over to have a meal together.”Quincy walked up to Saydie’s side and
Daisie grinned from ear to ear. “Then I’ll wear this crown on my wedding day, which can be considered an endorsement for my mom’s jewelry company and design.”Nollace hugged her from behind. “You can do anything as long as you like it.”…The members of the Goldmanns arrived in Yaramoor two days before the wedding and stayed in the hotel arranged by Nollace. The royal family had reserved the entire hotel for receiving distinguished guests from Zlokova who came to attend the wedding.Members from the Bouchers and the Lucases showed up, and Sunny was also present.There were also some familiar faces from the Zlokovian entertainment industry. Hannah, Amy, James, and Charlie, who were close friends with Daisie, all came.Leah and Morrison were also on the invitation list.When Maisie came to the restaurant, the waiter led her into a private room.As soon as she saw the man sitting inside, she smiled and exclaimed, “Godfather!”Strix slowly turned around.She had not seen him for
The rest of the people laughed.The night came, and the entire city was shrouded in a mist of neon light. Daisie and Nollace returned to Taylorton after having their dinner.Her hair was wet as she got out of the shower. Nollace took over her towel and helped her to dry her hair.She sat in front of her dresser and looked at the person behind her through the mirror. There was a smile tugging at the corner of her mouth as she said, “Nolly, I’m really looking forward to our wedding.”“Really?” Nollace gently dried the soft tips of her hair. “I’m looking forward to it too.”“I can say that my life is perfect now, right? Since I can marry and walk down the aisle with the man I love the most.”He laughed out loud and leaned down to her ear. “You know what? All the wishes in my life have come true as well.”Daisie turned her head around. “What are your wishes?”“Marry you, give you a wedding, and have our own kids.”She was stunned. Slowly, her face turned red due to her embarrassme
“Yeah, it’s true,” replied Zephir.“It seems like you’ve finally become more mature after coming back from your vacation.” Naomi patted his shoulder. “I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.” He smiled at her but did not say anything.…Soon, it was the end of the month. Their vacation had come to an end, and they returned to Bassburgh.Maisie and Nolan were waiting for them in the courtyard. After getting out of the car, Daisie ran up to them. “Mommy! Daddy!”She hugged both of them.Nolan petted her head and smiled helplessly. “You’re an adult now. You should stop acting like a kid.”She smiled back at them and said, “But I know I’ll always be your kid in your eyes.”Maisie chuckled and looked at the other people. “It seems like you guys had a lot of fun. Anyway, come in first. We should eat together tonight.”Freyja and Cameron went to look for their kids after they went into the house. Charm and her two cousins were staying in the same room. All of them were sl
Nollace looked at them. “What a coincidence.”“Morrison and I were here earlier than you guys,” said Leah. “We only found out that you guys were here when Daisie posted a photo on her Facebook page.”Daisie pulled Leah to the seat and said, “Then you should stay a few more days with us.”After Morrison took his seat, Waylon introduced him to Freyja and Daisie. “She’s my sister-in-law, Freyja, and she’s my sister. Her name is Daisie.”“I’ve seen them before at your wedding,” said Morrison. “Your sister is my wife’s classmate. She has told me before.”“Since when did I become your wife? There’s a chance I may not marry you in the future,” said Leah.“We’re already engaged. If you don’t want to marry me, who else are you going to marry?” Morrison frowned, causing the crowd to break out in a burst of laughter, save for Daisie.She looked at Leah in disbelief and asked, “Engaged? When did you get engaged, Leah?” Leah cleared her throat and replied, “Well, I forgot to inform you abo
The stall owner said, “$10 for three chances.”“$10 for three chances only? That’s expensive,” commented Freyja.The stall owner raised his head and said, “I’m the cheapest around here. Other stalls offer $15 for three chances.” Daisie tugged at Freyja and said, “Let's just give him the money. It isn't easy for them to set up a stall here anyway, so let's have some fun.”After that, she gave $20 to the stall owner and said, “Please give us six hoops.”The stall owner gave her six hoops. She had her eyes set on a bracelet. Although she knew it was fake, it was rather beautiful. She held a hoop and threw it toward the bracelet.However, she did not get it.She threw another two hoops at the bracelet, but her attempts failed, much to her chagrin. She had only three hoops left.Seeing that Daisie was prepared to give up, Cameron took over the rest of the hoops in her hand and said, “Leave it to me.”She squinted and aimed at the bracelet. After that, she threw the hoop at it an
The night of the old town was silent. The air was filled with nothing but the humming of insects. There was a lamp hanging outside of the tent on the grass. The atmosphere was quiet. Daisie was tossing and turning in the sleeping bag as sleep just wouldn't come to her. Suddenly, an arm appeared across her waist as she was brought into a chest. “What’s the matter? You can’t sleep?”“Yeah…” She buried her head in his chest and said, “I want to go to take a leak, but I’m a little bit scared.”Nollace kissed her forehead and said, “I’ll go with you then.”Both of them came out of the tent. Nollace took a flashlight and led Daisie to a row of trees in the distance. Daisie turned her head and said, “You wait for me here.”Nollace nodded. “Just shout my name if you need anything.”She walked into the forest and stopped in front of a tree not far away from Nollace.After she had done her business, she hastily got out of the forest and held tightly to Nollace’s arm. “Alright, let’s go
