Who dared to touch his fiancée?!Callum ran out of the company as fast as he could and soon saw Serenity’s car parked at the roadside.Serenity stood with four bodyguards at the moment. Two were arranged by Zachary to secretly protect her, and two were to secretly protect Camryn.However, when Camryn was attacked, Serenity fought off the men before the bodyguards could rush over.Callum ran to them.“Serenity!“Camryn. How’s Camryn?”Callum was panting and squatted down to take Camryn from Serenity’s hands.“Camryn was knocked unconscious. It’ll most likely take a while for her to wake up. It’s fortunate that I came here to send flowers to Zachary. I saw her here and was just about to walk over to her. I didn’t expect this to happen.“I saw Camryn talking to the man. She seemed familiar with him, but just as she was about to get in the car, she threw the man’s hand off and tried to run, but he knocked her out.”Callum picked Camryn up and said, “Serenity, can I borrow your ca
Zachary took the bouquet Serenity handed to him with one hand and used the other hand to pinch her face.“So you’re aware you made me angry.”Serenity laughed sheepishly. “I do have self-awareness.”She turned to the bodyguards and said, “I’m fine now. You can go back to your stations.”The four bodyguards looked at Zachary.Serenity was worried that Zachary would punish them and speak up for them. “This incident was too sudden, and Camryn was smiling when she was talking with those men. It gave off the illusion that they knew each other. No one expected the sudden turn of events.“This didn’t happen due to their negligence. Don’t blame them, babe.”Zachary said in a low voice, “The missus told you to return to your posts.”“Thank you, missus.”The four bodyguards thanked Serenity gratefully.Serenity said to Camryn’s two bodyguards, “Go back to Camryn’s side. I’ll tell Callum what happened in detail. I promise he won’t make you take responsibility.”The two bodyguards thank
Once his subordinate caught the person who dared to make Camryn pass out, he would mercilessly strike his neck, letting him taste the feeling of being knocked out.As Camryn reached out to grab Callum, he quickly extended his hand to let her grab onto it. After she grasped his hand, she pulled him closer and sniffed him. After picking up his scent, Camryn then relaxed and released her grip on his hand.“Camryn?”Callum was puzzled.Camryn said, “Let’s get back into the car first. Are we almost home? We can talk at home.”“We’re almost home. Okay, let’s talk at home. Is the back of your neck hurting?”“It hurts.”“Once we get back, I’ll help you apply some ointment.”Camryn did not say anything and slowly fumbled her way back into the car.Soon, the car started moving again.Before long, they arrived at the Newman residence.Callum wanted to carry his fiancée inside, but Camryn refused. In her own home, she did not need anyone to lead the way. She was already familiar with
It was because Camryn could not see.She recognized people based on their scent, voice, and footsteps.However, these characteristics could easily be imitated. She would fall into a trap if she let her guard down even a little.She almost fell into a trap this time. She smelled the scent of tobacco when she got into the car with the person whom she thought was Callum. Only then she realized that the person talking to her was not Callum.Callum rarely smoked, and there would be no hint of tobacco in his car.“Yes, he was disguised as you. His voice, footsteps, and even the scent on his body were very similar to yours. I think he must have been secretly observing our every move and deliberately imitating you. As for the scent on your body, you occasionally use men’s cologne. Once they find out the brand of cologne you use, it’s easy to solve the scent issue.”Callum said, “It must be your two aunts scheming behind the scenes. People from the two families are often active near your
“God knows. I was extremely scared at that time. When I received a call from Serenity, saying that you were attacked, my soul left my body.”Callum gently caressed Camryn’s neck with both his hands, burying his head in her neck, unable to resist stealing a sniff and occasionally kissing her cheek. As he continued to kiss her, he decisively adjusted her head and sealed her rosy lips.Right after a kiss, Callum sat on a chair.He held Camryn in his arms.Callum tightly embraced her waist, and she felt the pressure on his arms. She adjusted his grip and softly said, “Don’t exert so much force, it feels like you’re going to break my waist.”Callum immediately loosened his grip.“I was scared,” he murmured.“I was scared that something would happen to you.”“Fortunately, Serenity happened to be there and saw you. If she didn't know martial arts, you would have been taken away by them.”Callum felt a wave of lingering fear thinking about the consequences.“It means I still have goo
Ring, ring…Camryn’s phone rang.She hurriedly pushed away the man who took the opportunity to kiss her.Callum held her face, keeping her head in place, not allowing her to evade his kiss. In a low, hoarse voice, he said, “I don’t care.”With that, he clung to her, forcing her to entwine with him. Reluctantly, he finally let her go.The housekeeper stood outside Camryn’s room.Knowing that Miss Newman’s room was soundproofed, she did not knock on the door but called her instead.She did not answer the call.After she proactively ended the call, she waited briefly and dialed Ms. Newman’s number again.This time, the young miss picked up the call.“Ms. Newman, Mrs. York has arrived.”The housekeeper respectfully spoke over the phone.“Oh, she’s here. Please let her in, I’ll come downstairs soon.”Camryn’s voice sounded calm, without any hint of strangeness.The housekeeper could not guess what the two of them were discussing inside the room. An engaged couple alone in a ro
After Callum led Camryn downstairs, they approached their brother and sister-in-law to greet them.Camryn greeted them following Callum’s own greeting.They both sat opposite Zachary and Serenity.Serenity asked with concern, “Camryn, are you okay?”“It's nothing major, just a bit of pain in the back of my neck. Thanks for saving me, Serenity.”Camryn expressed her gratitude to Serenity.Serenity replied, “We are all family, there’s no need to be so formal. However, from now on, you should have bodyguards with you for added security. That way, we can all feel more at ease. It was fortunate that I happened to encounter you and rescued you today. Otherwise, the consequences could have been unimaginable.”Camryn was also a bit frightened after the fact. She said, “Just now, Callum told me the same thing. From now on, I’ll let the bodyguards be by my side at all times.”If she hadn’t taken over the Newman family business, she wouldn’t have needed bodyguards following her. Now thoug
Zachary said, “The rest of them are still overseas aside from Rowan, you, and me.”Rowan was still studying and usually lived in the school. He would only return home once a month.Callum was stunned for a moment before smiling. “I forgot all about that.”His cousins were on business trips or on their way to court their future wives. Only he and Zachary remained in Wiltspoon because their marriages were pretty much settled. “Nana isn’t home either.”Callum spoke in a reminiscing tone, “I was always tense whenever Nana was around. I feared I would make her dislike me or be targeted and punished by her. However, I miss her a lot after she started leaving home to travel.”Zachary did not continue the conversation, but he felt the same. Among his brothers, Nana had spent the most effort on his marriage. She was often worried whenever he and Serenity quarreled and gave each other the silent treatment. She even moved into his and Serenity’s house for a short period due to that r
