Dalton was not surprised at all when he saw Callum’s Maybach.
Callum helped Camryn out of the car.
Dalton came out of the store with his girlfriend. When Melissa saw how gentle and considerate Callum was toward Camryn, she guessed the relationship between the two without having to ask, and the smile on her face became more sincere.
Callum held Camryn’s hand and faced Dalton together with her.
“Dal.”
Camryn tried to break free from his hand but failed. He held onto her tightly and refused to let go.
After two unsuccessful attempts, Camryn gave up and let him hold her hand.
She already told him that Dalton and she were just like siblings, but he still wanted to assert dominance in front of Dalton.
Wait, she did not agree to be with him.
She was not his woman. Why was he asserting dominance?
Although Dalton brought his girlfriend over, Callum was still full of jealousy toward this man. He stared at Dalton for a long time before a smile finally appeared on his face, and he said warmly, “Camryn told me that you’re like a brother to her, so from now on, I’ll follow her example and call you Dal too.”
Callum used Camryn’s nickname for Dalton.
Dalton’s eyes fell on Callum’s large hand that was holding Camryn tightly.
He said with a vague smile, “What’s your relationship with Cam now, Mr. York?”
Callum disliked hearing Dalton refer to Camryn as Cam.
The atmosphere between the two men became tense.
“Dalton, let’s go inside the store first. Everyone is watching.”
Melissa reminded her boyfriend, then said to Camryn, “Come, Camryn. I’ll help you inside.” She reached out and took Camryn’s other hand, easily rescuing her from Callum’s grip.
Melissa’s words made the two tense men temporarily suppress their anger toward each other
When entering the store, the two men walked side by side and almost bumped into each other
Dalton glared at Callum and said in a low voice, “Mr. York, Cam has not accepted your advances yet, so please give her the respect she deserves. Don’t get all touchy-feely with her
Callum responded defiantly, “Camryn isn’t really your sister You two have different last names. Only Aunt Evelyn has the right to say such things to me. Besides, I’m not taking advantage of Camryn. I held her hand to help her out of the car because she can’t see.”
Dalton paused, before saying, “Cam thinks of me as her brother, and she was the one who saved my life We’ve been siblings for many years. She’s my sister in my heart!”
1 am aware that you and Camryn are close. That’s why I’m calling you Dal too.”
Dalton choked.
Callum’s expression seemed to say, ‘Since I’m calling you Dal, it means I think of you as a brother too. I’m showing you plenty of respect.
“I’m hardly worthy. You should just stick to calling me Mr. Mitchell.”
“I’ll call you whatever Camryn calls you. I listen to Camryn. You should have heard that the men of the York family are very obedient to their wives.”
Dalton’s expression darkened. “Camryn hasn’t married you yet.”
“She will sooner or later.”
Dalton was speechless.
“It’s my first time learning that you are so thick-skinned.”
Callum smiled “I need to be thick-skinned to pursue my wife. If my skin isn’t thick enough and I give up after being rejected, I’ll never be able to catch her.”
Dalton choked again.
The conversation between the two was not loud, but Camryn and Melissa both heard them.
Melissa asked Camryn with a smile, “Is he pursuing you now? He’s not bad.”
She heard Dalton call Callum “Mr York”, but she had no idea who “Mr. York” was in Wiltspoon.
“How many off days do you have, Melissa?”
Melissa worked in a company She did not simply laze around and enjoy life just because her boyfriend earned several million a year and insisted on going to work. Even if her income was far inferior to Dalton’s, in her words, it was always more satisfying to spend money that she earned herself.
“I only have the weekends off as well, so three days in total.”
Camryn smiled “Three days off is fine People like us who are self-employed can’t even get a single day off”
“But you have freedom. I also want to open a store after getting married and run a small business. I don’t want to work in an office anymore Camryn, does your flower shop make a large profit?”
“It’s enough for me to make a living, and the competition is very fierce Are you planning to open a flower shop too?”
After they sat down, Camryn skillfully made tea for everyone.
Melissa looked at her eyes and asked with concern, “Camryn, has your eyesight still not recovered at all?”
“No.”
Camryn steeped the tea while saying, “But as long as I’m in a familiar environment, I can do many things by myself. Practice makes perfect.”
Melisa nodded and said, “I want to open a café since I’m not very fond of flowers. If you want to open a store, you have to involve yourself in an industry that you like. Only then will you run the business with care and dedication, and only then can you succeed.”
Camryn nodded. She also thought of opening a café at first, but she finally chose to open a florist instead because she liked taking care of flowers and plants.
Before she lost her sight, most of the flowers and plants in the Newman family villa were planted and grown especially well by her
She was neglected at home and did not get along with her parents and sister, so she wanted to find something to do to avoid them.
Thus, she turned to gardening. She grew to actually enjoy flowers and plants as she raised more and more plants, gaining experience along the way.
Thus, she opened a flower store.
Camryn and Melissa chatted about opening a store, but the two men had no common topic They simply stared at each other
In the meantime, Zack took Serena back to the manor and saw two cars blocking the entrance.
The cars were not parked haphazardly but side-by-side They just so happened to be blocking the gate The security booth at the entrance of the manor had guards on duty As soon as they saw the Rolls- Royce, they knew that Zack had returned.
The two guards on duty hurriedly came out and went to the windows of the aforementioned two cars After they tapped on the windows and the drivers lowered the windows, the guards said, “Our young master is back. Please move your car aside while waiting for the butler to give us his reply before you can drive in.”
The two cars belonged to none other than Camryn’s aunts.
The sisters had come to meet Rosella.
However, they came too early. Rosella had not woken up yet.
The butler did not dare let them in without Rosella’s permission, so they waited in their cars.
They did not realize that their cars happened to block the entrance of the manor.
The two ladies listened to the security guards and hurriedly instructed their drivers to move their cars to the side.
A few minutes later, Zack and his motorcade drove into Wildridge Manor
The bodyguards’ cars were parked in the open parking lot, but the Rolls-Royce that Zack was sitting in headed directly to the door of the main house before stopping.
The car carrying Liberty and Sonny also arrived at the door of the main house.
Duncan, a regular visitor to the manor, casually parked his car in the open parking lot. He got out of the car, walked back to the security booth, and asked nosily, “Whose cars are those outside?”
“They’re Mrs. Chandler and Mrs. Joyner They want to meet Madam Rosella, but she hasn’t woken up yet, so Mason asked them to wait for a while “
Mason was the butler of Callum’s family.
Duncan did not remember much about the Chandler and Joyner families. Those families were obviously not on the same level as the Lewises.
