Chapter 1295
Camryn also had a younger brother who was once very protective of her, but that phase lasted only a few years. Her mother even went so far as to enroll him in a boarding school to sever their connection.
Her mother eliminated anyone who was kind to her.
“Didn’t you mention that the bouquet was for your fiancée?”
Callum replied with a smile, “Have you ever heard of me getting engaged? I just made that up to trick your mom.”
Even though Camryn had a visual impairment, she kept herself informed about the gossip surrounding the city’s wealthiest family.
Indeed, she had never heard any rumors about an engagement.
The only man who was tied to a woman was Mr. Zachary, and his wife was Serenity.
After Serenity helped Camryn, Mr. Zachary even told her stepfather that Serenity got along well with her, leading her stepfather to treat her more kindly.
Previously, Camryn’s stepfather had treated her poorly. While he never tortured or bullied her like her mother, he remained silent whenever her mother and Carrie mistreated her.
He was a passive enabler and accomplice.
“Well, I won’t be refunding your money, though.”
Callum chuckled. “That’s fine.”
He continued, “Sometimes, you seem so detached as if material possessions don’t matter to you. Other times, you can be quite stingy.”
“Money is a great servant but a terrible master. You were born into privilege, so you’ll never grasp my passion for making a profit.”
Callum was left speechless.
He was also interested in making money.
The only difference was that he was earning substantial amounts. A few hundred dollars meant little to him.
Zachary and his wife shared intimate moments when the sun set.
Serenity emerged from the bathroom to find that Zachary had just washed himself. He was
Leaning against the headboard, he waited for her. Approaching with a smile, she climbed onto the bed and leaned in to kiss his cheek.
“Babe, you finish your showers faster than I do,” she remarked.
“I showered in your room,” he replied.
Zachary wrapped his arms around her and then shifted to tower over her, clearly wanting more than just a cozy cuddle.
“Let’s have a chat, babe,” he said.
Serenity tilted her head to prevent him from kissing her lips. Surrendering to his desire, he brushed his lips across her face in gentle butterfly kisses. She responded by placing her hands over his mouth.
Zachary gently removed her hands and pinned her down, insisting they lock lips before he would let her go. “What do you want to talk about?” he asked.
“Get off me. You’re heavy,” she said, nudging him away.
Zachary grinned and pecked her lips before shifting to sit beside her. He leaned against the headboard as he had before.
“We can chat about whatever you want,” he said, pulling her upright and covering their legs with the blankets.
“My aunt asked if we’re expecting when I was there today,” Serenity shared.
Zachary frowned. “It will happen when it happens. My family isn’t pressuring us, but Aunt Audrey does seem eager.”
He was uncomfortable with Mrs. Stone putting any pressure on Serenity.
