grateful.”
She used to eat shrimp with the shells on, skipping the dipping sauce because it was too inconvenient. However, she typically didn’t eat seafood at home, as her family never offered it to her. Instead, they only provided plain pasta. If her stepfather was around, she might get a few meatballs. Her mother would often say that since she was blind, she couldn’t see what she was eating, so plain pasta was good enough; at least it meant she wouldn’t starve.
Callum treated her much nicer than her family did. Camryn appreciated his kindness but wondered about his motives. Surely, he couldn’t be interested in her romantically, could he? Before losing her sight, she had been well aware of her attractiveness. Her stepfather had remarked that she inherited the best features from both parents, resembling them both simultaneously. Carrie, her stepsister, was deeply envious of her good looks.
Given Callum’s social status, he must have encountered many beautiful women. Why would he be interested in someone blind like her? Even if he was drawn to her now, surely it was just a fleeting curiosity.
With that thought, Camryn reminded herself, “Don’t be fooled by Callum’s temporary kindness. He will never marry a blind person; he’s just intrigued by the novelty.”
Unbeknownst to Callum, Camryn had built a wall around her heart to keep him at bay, making it more difficult for him to pursue her. After peeling the shrimp for her, he offered her a drumstick and a fish fillet. “I’m a gentleman. I’m not doing this as a favor. I’m taking care of you because that’s how I was raised. You don’t need to feel indebted to me.”
Camryn smiled softly. “Thank you, Mr. Callum. Am I really not in your debt for this?”
“You’re not,” he replied.
“I’m grateful.”
