-Camryn heard the comment and felt her cheeks flush.
It turned out that the staff at York Corporation had long considered her to be the wife of their vice president.
Overjoyed, Callum assisted Camryn into the car and thoughtfully helped her fasten her seatbelt. She still held the bouquet of flowers she had brought along.
Once back in the car, he asked for her thoughts: “Camryn, I’d like to take you back to Wildridge Manor. Would you be interested?”
Callum’s parents had secretly visited her several times because she had never accepted his proposal. They didn’t want to disturb her, considering Callum’s feelings. Little did she know that, in her future in-laws’ eyes, she had already pushed him into a corner and had become the one they sought to spoil.
His mother expressed that she had never had a daughter, so she wanted a charming daughter-in-law like Camryn. The moment she laid eyes on Camryn, she felt an instant connection, saying that Camryn exuded warmth right from the start.
Taking her back to Wildridge Manor held a different significance.
It was akin to introducing her to his family and elders for the first time.
Camryn nervously replied, “But I haven’t prepared any gifts yet.”
Callum, feeling impatient, had just secured her agreement to be his girlfriend, and now he was about to take her home to meet his parents.
Although he knew his family was aware of their relationship, Camryn still felt a twinge of nervousness.
It felt like an awkward daughter-in-law meeting her in-laws for the first time.
“I don’t need a gift,” he reassured her. “Just taking you home will make them happier than any present.”
Camryn insisted, “That’s not right; a gift is necessary. It’s my first meeting with my uncle and aunt. I can’t arrive empty-handed, so please take me to a shopping mall now to buy some gifts.”
Callum…
He smiled, “That’s fine. I’ll take you to the shopping mall right now to buy some food and drinks. My family doesn’t need anything. My mother often says that having a daughter-in-law would fill a void in her life.”
Camryn’s face turned red again.
Callum pulled out his mobile phone and sent a message to the family group: [I’m taking Camryn back to Wildridge Manor for dinner. If you have time, everyone should return to the villa.]
Zachary was the first to respond: [Coincidentally, your sister-in-law also said to go back to the villa tonight. We’re already halfway there.]
Kevin replied: [Got it, we’ll head home right away.]
The other young masters, as long as they were in Wiltspoon, responded to Callum and rushed home.
Rowan hadn’t started his summer vacation yet and had left his mobile phone at school, so he couldn’t reply to his second brother, Callum.
Callum naturally overlooked Rowan, being the youngest.
For children, the most important thing was to learn.
But Rowan was no longer a child; he was a teenager!
When Callum’s parents received the news, his mother quickly responded: [How long will it take to arrive? Is it too late for me to ask the chef to prepare a few more dishes? Camryn likes sweet and sour fish, right? I’ll let the chef know now, and he’ll remove all the fishbones.]
Mrs. York was concerned that Camryn, being blind, might choke on fishbones, so she wanted the chef to take them out beforehand.
If Camryn could see how kind her future mother-in-law was, she would be deeply touched.
The family chat buzzed with excitement.
