Serenity smiled. Zachary’s nana was the best grandmother she had ever met.Her grandmom was worlds apart from his nana. “You should treasure Nana. Having a dozen of your nana is never enough for me.”Zachary was closest to Nana. He said, “Elders are treasures.”After Serenity fell quiet for a moment, she said, “It depends. Some elders like to kick up a fuss and bring chaos to the younger generation. In that case, those elders aren’t treasures.”Zachary held her hand.“Mr. Bucham and Jasmine are coming for a toast.”Serenity refused to talk further about the unhappy things. She immediately changed the topic.Josh and Jasmine went to each table to drink a toast. When they reached Zachary’s table, Zachary mocked his buddy playfully. “Josh, you’re grinning from ear to ear tonight. Your cheeks are as red as a tomato. Is it because you’ve drunk or laughed too much?”Josh burst into laughter before he responded, “Both.”He and Jasmine raised their glasses to Mr. Donald and his wife
Jasmine grinned. “It’s okay, as long as I’m sober. I can drive you to City Hall after I kidnap you while you’re half-conscious. Once we receive our marriage license, you’ll be mine and can’t run away anymore.” Josh said, “I won’t run away; I’m willing to be bound to you for life. I’ll be your lifelong support and provide you shelter. All the money I earn will be for you to spend.” “Mr. Bucham, you’re proposing a toast but keep exchanging sweet words with each other. You should consider the feelings of bachelors like us.” Callum smiled and joked when he heard the sweet talk between Jasmine and Josh. Josh clinked glasses with him and responded with a smile, “You’re not far behind.” He looked at Camryn, who was sitting quietly beside Callum. Camryn could not see Josh but could feel his gaze. While facing Josh and Jasmine, she felt around to find her glass and raised it to them. “Mr. Bucham, Jasmine, I wish you a long life together.” Jasmine smiled and clinked glasses with
Jasmine walked Josh out. His driver was waiting for him outside. “You don’t need to send me further. Go back to sleep,” Josh turned his head and said to Jasmine. “I need to close the gates.” Jasmine lightly patted the dog that came over to rub against her. It shook its head and wagged its tail. Soon, it went back to the corner and lay down. Josh looked at the dog and chuckled. “Your dog is very obedient and doesn’t bark. Zachary was scared half to death by it last time.” Jasmine hummed. “It doesn’t bark sometimes, but it is good at guarding our house. Since we had it, no one dared climb over the wall at night anymore. Thieves used to spoil the surveillance camera above my fence and climb over the wall to get in.” Her parents were light sleepers and heard the movements outside. As a result, those thieves managed to get in but rushed to escape without even being able to pick the lock on their front door. Since they had the dog, their surveillance camera stayed intact.
Callum followed behind his big brother like a tail. Zachary could not help but turn his head and ask him, “If you have something to say, say it. Don’t stick to me like glue—it’s not me you should be sticking to.” Why was Callum sticking to him instead of Camryn? Callum smiled and said, “Zack, why aren’t you going back to your office yet? I have something to say to you.” “You can’t say it here?” Callum grinned. Zachary glared at him again and figured that what he wanted to say was a personal matter. Ten minutes later, Zachary sat at his desk and asked Callum, “Spit it out. What is it?” “I’m a little embarrassed. I always think I know more about love than you do, but I feel a little flustered now. It feels like I’m slapping myself in the face.” Zachary laughed and responded, “Aren’t you guys learning from me? One, don’t hide your identity. Two, don’t ask for trouble. No, you’ve asked for trouble. You know she can’t see, and yet you asked her to send you flowers. Aren’t
“Zack.” Callum flattered Zachary, “Zack, you’re the smartest among us brothers. You didn’t know about love back then, but you and Serenity have been married for half a year now. Your relationship has been good, and you have more or less accumulated some experience. “Zack, you’re happy now, so you should help your brothers seize their happiness too. “Zack, tell me what I should do now. What should I do when Camryn doesn’t want to see me and avoids me?” Zachary responded snappily, “As long as you’re thick-skinned enough, you can do whatever you want. You can’t replicate what happened between me and Seren.” He and Serenity were mutually attracted, mutually understanding, and mutually trusting. “Thick-skinned?” Zachary continued, “If you really want me to teach you a few tricks, I’ll tell you the truth. Pursuing a woman requires you to be thick-skinned. No matter how the woman rejects you, you have to persist. Don’t retreat and ignore her just because she ignores you. If you
Camryn would not abandon her flower shop. She would always be there. It was working hours at the moment. Camryn would think that Callum was busy working in the office and would not go to her shop, so she could show up. Callum could then catch her red-handed. Callum had not been avoided like this before. In fact, Camryn had always been in the shop. When Callum went there in the morning, she asked her two assistants to lie to him while she hid in the bathroom. Her phone was turned off because she changed a new phone and number. As such, Callum’s call did not go through. After accompanying Callum to attend Josh’s engagement party last night, Camryn thought about it all night. She did not know why Old Mrs. York picked her. Did Old Mrs. York not mind that she was blind? Or did Old Mrs. York already know she was someone who played dumb? However, even her little aunt did not know she had long arranged for someone to enter Newman Enterprise and meddle in their business. Old M
Now, 99% of the unmentionable forces of Camryn’s mom had been cut off. The remaining small fries could not escape in time and get anywhere. This outcome was due to Camryn’s acquaintance with Serenity and the Yorks. Camryn’s plan did not include Callum. His appearance caught her off guard. She did not want to become a burden to him, so before she fell deeper, she wanted to cut off his thoughts first and return some peacefulness to each other. Callum was the second son of the Yorks. He should find a more excellent and healthy lady as a wife. He should not be matched with a blind person like Camryn. Dalton observed Camryn for a moment and asked gently, “Camryn, is something on your mind?” “No.” Camryn denied it right away. Dalton smiled and said, “We’ve known each other for over a decade, and you saved my life, so no one knows you better than I do. Tell me if you have something on your mind. You said we’re like siblings. “As long as you tell me, I’ll help you if I can,
It was not because the Yorks were glorious and wealthy, but because the men in the family were loving. Camryn had a bitter life. If she could be a part of the Yorks and had their backing, Dalton could gradually withdraw from Newman Enterprise as his godbrother. He had fought for and defended the business for Camryn for many years. He had to eventually return everything to her. Even so, he would still worry about her. He could be more at ease with Callum around. That was because Callum would not go after the Newmans’ family fortune. After all, Camryn was still blind. If the person by her side had other intentions, she would be gravely harmed. “Mr. Callum and I aren’t suitable and are not a good match. I’m a blind lady who’s not worthy of him. He deserves someone better,” Camryn said softly. Dalton put down his cup and reached out to poke her forehead. His action was intimate and natural. “Silly girl, you lost your confidence and are dwelling on an insignificant problem a
