Trenton, who was told everything, was broken and confused.He had planned on becoming a civil servant in the future, but he never expected his parents and sister to commit such a grave crime, which closed off his path to becoming a civil servant.What was even harder for him to accept was that his own parents had killed his sister’s biological father. He and Camryn shared the same mother, but how did their mother treat Camryn?After learning the truth, Trenton finally understood why his parents were so cold to Camryn. It turned out that it was because of the death of his uncle.Trenton felt that it was right for Camryn to avenge her father and punish her relatives. After all, it was his parents’ fault for committing such heinous crimes.However, they were still his biological parents. He found it difficult to accept that his sister, whom he had always respected, treated his parents this way.Since learning the truth, Trenton had been avoiding Camryn. He had been staying at his cl
Dalton responded to Callum, “Invite me again when you actually have a wedding planned.”As he was talking, Dalton opened the car door for Camryn. After she got in, he got back in the car immediately as he was unwilling to spend another second arguing with a rascal like Callum. Dalton quickly drove away from York Corporation with Camryn in tow.Callum watched as the car disappeared into the distance. He did not go back until it was out of sight.The security guards on duty were all looking at him.“That’s my future brother-in-law.”Callum could tell what they were thinking. To prevent rumors that his fiancée ran off with some other man from spreading, he jokingly explained the situation to the guards.Although Dalton was not Camryn’s biological brother, the two treated each other as siblings. As Camryn regarded Dalton as her elder brother, he was naturally Callum’s brother-in-law.The security guards chuckled sheepishly.They overheard how the COO had addressed Mr. Mitchell. T
“Let me taste it.”Kevin reached out to get some pastries.Before he could grab it, Callum slapped his hand away.“This was sent by my fiancée and it’s a little token from her with much love. I'll enjoy it myself. If you want some, go get from Mr. Queen.” Kevin then said with his eyes wide open, “Callum, you’re too stingy. It’s just a little piece of pastry, why won’t you let me have a taste? I heard that when Zack couldn’t finish the breakfast Serenity had prepared for him, she asked him to bring some to the office for you to eat.“You should learn from Zachary. He took care of his brothers without neglecting his wife.”While eating the pastries, Callum replied, “That’s why he’s the big boss. I’m only the second-in-line, I do not have such generosity.”Kevin was speechless.He got up pretending to be in a huff and said, “You think I’m dying to eat your pastry? The pastries made by our hotel’s pastry chefs are much better than the ones outside.”“Then go eat at the hotel. No
Dalton and Camryn were at Seaview Villa, the place where they would always choose to talk about business. As for the workers in the villa, Dalton was the one who chose them for Camryn.Although Camryn was now the head of the Newmans, her butler and servants were employed by Mrs. Newman. Given that they had been working for Mrs. Newman for years, they would be biased toward her.Camryn had thought about firing those servants and employing new ones. However, her eyes had not fully recovered. If she had done that, she would not be familiar with the newly-employed servants, which was less secure.Currently, those servants were courteous toward Camryn on the surface. In fact, they were biased toward her brother, Trenton. The butler, in particular, seemed to be on a mission to look after the house for Mr. and Mrs. Newman so that Trenton could successfully take over it.When Camryn was having a meeting with the top management in the study, Dalton was sitting beside her and assisting her.
“Having said that, Mr. Callum trusts you, or he wouldn’t have allowed us to leave together in your car.”Dalton choked.The person calling Camryn was not Callum but Aunt Evelyn, who was her father’s youngest sister. Aunt Evelyn had gotten married and moved to a faraway place. She hardly returned to Wiltspoon. “Aunt Evelyn.”The moment Camryn heard Aunt Evelyn’s voice, her expression totally changed. From Camryn’s expression, Dalton could see her reliance on her aunt.Camryn had a close relationship with Aunt Evelyn; it was because of her that Camryn’s life was saved.In the last decade, Aunt Evelyn had gone around to look for well-known doctors to help treat Camryn’s eyes. She had also brought Camryn along to ask for medication and prayed for her.“Camryn, where are you now? I went to your flower shop, and your assistant said you were out. When I went home, I didn’t see you either.”Aunt Evelyn had turned against Mr. and Mrs. Newman because of the death of Camryn’s father and
Now, Brenda and Amy wanted to return to Newmans’ residence to compete for the property.There was no sisterhood between Evelyn and her sisters anymore.“Alright. I’ll wait for you at home, Aunt Evelyn.”“Okay. I’m going to take a cab and head there now.”Aunt Evelyn ended the call after speaking to Camryn for a short while. Knowing that Aunt Evelyn would be coming, Camryn said to Dalton, “Dal, let’s buy some seafood home. Aunt Evelyn loves to eat seafood.”“Alright.”Dalton accompanied Camryn to buy a lot of seafood.Camryn wanted to cook the seafood so that Aunt Evelyn could eat it once she came. Unfortunately, Camryn was blind, and she had to get Dalton’s help eventually.“I’m really useless.”Camryn said with inferiority, “I’m trying my best to live a normal person’s life, but I can’t do it.”Dalton consoled her by saying, “Cam, don’t overthink. Since Aunt Evelyn is coming, she must’ve found the genius doctor. She’s coming to tell you the good news and bring you to the d
Dalton was a man filled with gratitude. In the past, Camryn had saved and helped him out of the goodness of her heart. He had been repaying her kindness since then and now had become her right-hand man.Aunt Evelyn had thought about matchmaking the two of them as she found Dalton reliable. Dalton did not hold Camryn in contempt just because she was blind. What was more, he was interested in Camryn, but he concealed it so well that no one noticed it.However, Camryn treated Dalton as an older brother without any feelings of romance.After attempting to matchmake them several times, Aunt Evelyn gave up.“No problem at all, Aunt Evelyn. Take a seat. Once the food is ready, I’ll let both of you know.”Dalton returned to the kitchen and carried on with his preparation.Camryn and Aunt Evelyn sat on the couch.“Aunt Evelyn, why didn’t you bring Angel over?”Angel was Aunt Evelyn’s granddaughter who just turned two. She was honey-tongued and likable.“Angel is staying at her grandmot
Camryn did not say anything.Aunt Evelyn patted the back of Camryn’s hand again before she said, “I’m going to help Dalton cook.”While speaking, Aunt Evelyn rose to her feet to head there. Something crossed her mind, and she sat down again. She asked concernedly, “Is Trenton still unwilling to meet you?”Camryn nodded her head.Aunt Evelyn sighed and spoke up for her nephew. “Trenton is in a difficult position. Don’t blame him.”Although Camryn was not wrong, it was hard for Trenton to accept that the sister he respected sent his parents and second sister to jail.“I don’t blame Trenton. He’s a good kid. I believe he’ll slowly get over it.”Aunt Evelyn reminded Camryn, “Mm. But you can’t leave him to hide outside all the time. Find time to meet him every day. Don’t let others seize the chance to win him over and incite him to turn against you.“Where’s Trenton staying now? Give me his address. I’ll go talk to him.”Camryn replied, “He’s staying in a classmate’s hometown in th
