Chapter 622 – The Disguised Billionaire and His Accidental Wife Novel Free Online

Yes, he was stimulated by his brother and sister–in–law’s show of affection.

Callum saw how much Zachary changed after meeting Serenity. He was also envious of them, so he thought of meeting the wife candidate that his nana picked out for him.

“What else do you sell in this store besides flowers?” Callum asked Camryn.

Camryn maintained her smile and answered, “I also sell flowerpots, fertilizers for flowers, potting soil, and so on. What do you need, sir?”

Callum pursed his lips. The woman in front of him spoke with a constant smile, but she gave off a wispy feeling.

However, her words were sharp.

“I’ll just take a look.”

Callum walked past Camryn and entered the store to wander around.

After making a round, he turned to find that Camryn was following him not far behind.

Why was she following him when she was pretending to be blind? Was she revealing herself?

“Sir?” Camryn called out to Callum when she did not hear his subtle footsteps anymore.

Callum felt uncertain again when he saw her expression. Was she blind or just pretending to be blind?

He decided to test her.

After looking around the store, his gaze finally locked on a potted cactus. He took the pot and put it on the counter, asking, “I want this one. How much is it?”

Camryn turned toward the direction of his voice and walked toward him.

“Which pot did you choose, sir? Could you tell me where it was originally placed? I… can’t see.”

Callum stared at her large eyes. She was not wearing black sunglasses now, so he could see her eyes clearly.

Her large eyes were unfocused. They would have looked beautiful if she was not blind.

“You can’t see? Then how were you able to follow me earlier?”

Camryn fished out the glasses case from her pocket, opened it, took out her sunglasses, and put them on. Then, she replied, “I have very good hearing and can hear subtle movements.

“I followed behind you by listening to the sound of your footsteps.”

Callum hummed. He had heard before that blind people had good hearing.

“I picked one out at random and didn’t see its position. You should be familiar with the flowers in your own store. Can’t you rely on your sense of touch to find out what pot I picked?”

He did not believe that his nana really picked out a blind woman for him.

He had to test her.

“I placed the pot on your checkout counter.”

Camryn did not say anything. She silently went up and reached out to touch the pot placed on the counter. When she touched it with both hands, her fingers were pricked by the cactus’s thorns.

She instinctively withdrew her hand.

Callum watched her the entire time and saw her touch the cactus. She really did seem like a blind person who relied on touch.

“Sir, you picked out a cactus.”

Camryn reached out again. This time, she placed her hands on the counter and slowly searched for the pot. After determining the size, she said, “Sir, the cactus you picked is a large one. It’s a little more expensive and costs forty–five dollars.”

“That’s too expensive. What about the small pot? The kind that can be placed on the desk.”

“The small ones range from ten to twenty dollars. If you want to place it on your desk, then you can pick out a small pot. The sixteen dollar one is a good choice.”

As she spoke, she slowly walked to a plant rack, felt for a small pot of cactus, and handed it to Callum.

Callum’s purpose was to test whether

Camryn was truly blind or not.

From the test, it seemed that Camryn was indeed blind. Callum immediately stopped his little test. There were plenty of opportunities in the future to test her again, so he simply said, “All right. I’ll take it.”

Callum took out his phone but saw that there were no cashless payment options on the counter. He asked, “Your store doesn’t accept payments via e–wallets?”

Camryn said honestly, “I can’t see, so I didn’t set up cashless payments. I don’t have an e–wallet account.”

She took out her phone and showed it to Callum. It was an old–fashioned model that sported a keypad. She could only make phone calls and send messages with the phone.

Camryn could not see, so she could only call others by pressing the keypad. She could not use a smartphone either.

“I posted a sign at the door saying that the store only accepts cash. If you don’t have cash and if my two shop assistants are present, you can pay her via Apple Pay and she’ll pay me back in cash.”

Callum hummed and took out a one hundred dollar bill from his wallet, handing it to Camryn.

He did not tell her that it was a hundred–dollar bill.

Then, he stared at her and watched as she touched the money. After feeling it several times, she went around the counter and opened the drawer. Callum was tall, and he stood close, so his sharp eyes saw that there were many small compartments in the drawer. Each compartment contained different denominations of money.

Camryn was very skilled in getting the change.

She found eighty-four dollars for him and said, “Please come back again if you need anything else.”

Callum took the money and counted it. There was no mistake. He stuffed the money back into his wallet and asked, “Do you have a business card? Give me one. I’ll call you the next time I need to buy flowers and you can have someone send them to me. It’ll save me the effort of coming here to get it since I’m very busy.”

“Yes, sir. Just a moment.”

Camryn retrieved a business card from a small box on the counter and handed it to Callum. He took the card, looked at it, and slipped it into his pants pocket. Then, he picked up his pot of cactus.

“I’ll be leaving now.”

“Have a nice day, sir.”

Camryn followed Callum out.

Callum twisted his head and glanced at her twice but did not say anything. He went to his car parked nearby and soon drove away.

As soon as Callum left, Camryn’s two shop assistants arrived. Together with Camryn, they moved out some potted flowers and arranged them.

“Why is this cactus here?”

One of the shop assistants saw the cactus on the counter and asked Camryn while she picked the pot up and put it back in its place.

“A gentleman came earlier to buy a cactus. He said that he wanted to put it on his desk, and that one was too large, so he got a smaller one instead.”

Camryn did not mention that Callum was testing her.

He did not come here to buy flowers. He only bought a small pot of cactus after deliberately using it to test her.

Who was he?

It seemed he was going after her.
