“You can wait at the location you hopped on ea
Camryn faced the car and tried to see who parked the car. Unfortunately, it was still dark in front of her, with only a glimmer of light. That faint light was not enough for her to see things clearly.
The light felt so close yet so far.
“Do you still walk to the store every day?”
A raspy voice could be heard.
Camryn recognized it. It was Callum’s voice.
Callum was tricked into sending Camryn back to her store once by his sister–in–law. When she thanked him and asked for his name, he did not hide his identity like his brother and told her that he was the young master of Yorks.
“Mr. York.”
After finding out it was Callum, Camryn showed her signature smile.
“Does the Newman family not have a driver?”
“The Newman family does. I don’t.”
Callum pressed his lips together. The wife candidate his nana chose for him was a blind and pitiful girl. She lost her dad and was not loved by her mother.
“Get on. I’ll give you a ride to the store.”
Camryn did not move. She asked Callum, “Why are you here, Mr. York?”
After a moment of silence, Callum said, “I just remembered that I have a villa here, so I came over for a short stay.”
Camryn said, “You must own many houses…”
The neighborhood the Newmans lived in was famous in Wiltspoon.
Many wealthy people had houses there.
Callum said, “I do own quite a few houses, but I never really stayed in them after buying them. If I remember the house, I’ll stay there for several days. If I don’t, it’ll just be left there. I can sell the house when its price increases and earn money.
“Get in. It’s raining. Even if you walk out of the neighborhood, catching a bus will be hard.”
Callum asked Camryn to get in the car. “I’m going to your flower shop to buy flowers anyway.”
Camryn hesitated for a moment before she decided to get in his car.
Although she and Callum had only met each other a few times before–wait, it was him who had seen her several times. She had not seen him before and did not know what he looked like.
Camryn heard the young masters of the York family were handsome. She thought he would be too.
She walked toward Callum’s car while feeling with her hands. She managed to touch the door handle and pulled the door open. After getting into the car, she placed the closed umbrella by her feet.
“Put on your seatbelt.”
Callum spoke again.
Camryn was stunned. She actually got into the passenger seat.
She quickly regained her composure. She felt around for the seatbelt, then pulled and fastened it.
Callum watched her as she did everything.
He did not help her at all.
He started the car and drove Camryn out of the neighborhood toward her flower shop.
On the way, Callum asked, “Do you head out at this time every day?”
“Mhm.”
“You can wait at the location you hopped on earlier from now on. I’ll give you a ride.”
Camryn said quickly, “Thank you, Mr. York, but there’s no need for that. If it doesn’t rain, I can catch a bus easily.”
He was neither a relative nor a friend. She would not dare hitch a ride in Mr. York’s car to work every day.
rlier from now on. I’ll give you a ride.”
Camryn said quickly, “Thank you, Mr. York, but there’s no need for that. If it doesn’t rain, I can catch a bus easily.”
He was neither a relative nor a friend. She would not dare hitch a ride in Mr. York’s car to work every day.
Callum turned to glance at her and said, “You’re blind. You can’t wave the bus down even if it passes by.”
Camryn replied, “The security guards at the main entrance are very helpful. They would wave down the bus for me every day and watch me get on.”
Callum did not say a word.
They did not know each other well, after all.
Callum initially did not intend to make a move so fast. After being tricked by his sister–in- law, he started pursuing Camryn passively so that his brother and sister–in–law would not watch him make a fool of himself.
His nana only gave him the basic information. He knew nothing else.
Without understanding and familiarity, there was nothing much to talk about.
One of them drove attentively, while the other paid attention to the music playing in the car along the way.
The car stopped when they arrived at Spring Blossoms.
Callum turned toward Camryn and said, “Ms. Newman, we’ve arrived at your flower shop.”
She replied okay and unfastened the seatbelt. Next, she bent over to take her umbrella beside her feet and felt around with her hands to open the door. She got out of the car carefully and opened the umbrella.
However, since she took the car, she did not know which direction she was facing. She was confused as she stood with the umbrella over her head.
Blind people could only move freely around places they were familiar with. Their lifestyle usually would not change. Once it did, they would lose their sense of direction.
Camryn usually traveled by bus and got off at a nearby bus stop. She had memorized the direction she needed to go after getting off and the number of steps she had to walk. Usually, nothing would go wrong.
However, Callum sent her to the flower shop today. She did not know where he parked his car. Did she have to turn left or right or go straight after getting off?
Camryn calmed down after being flustered for a moment. She tried walking straight.
She bumped into a person after taking a few steps.
“I’m sorry. Sorry.”
She quickly apologized.
“Turn right and walk straight. Your shop’s entrance will be there.”
Callum kindly gave Camryn directions. The person she bumped into just now was not a stranger but Callum, who had walked around the car and initially wanted to enter the shop with her.
Camryn had been going in the wrong direction. She bumped into Callum by going straight. She would have walked into another store if she had not bumped into him and continued straight instead.
“Thank you.”
With Callum’s directions, Camryn walked to her store’s entrance smoothly. She fished a key from her pocket and placed her hand on the doorknob. After feeling it, she inserted the key and opened the door.
Callum noticed that she only had one key.
That way, she would not be confused by too many keys.
Callum simply stood at the side and did not lend a hand.
He tested her before and confirmed that Camryn was still blind. He wanted to know what her daily life was like.
Callum admitted that he was curious as it was his first time interacting with a blind person. Well, it was pure curiosity. He had not started wooing her seriously.
She would probably chase him out with her white cane if he were to express his intent to woo her.
Camryn did not expect Callum to help her anyway.
