Matthias remarked, “Your mother relies on me for care, not you.”
Callum responded, “Alright, alright, both of you will take your wives home.”
After Camryn attended the banquet with Rosella, Callum planned to take her back to Newman’s house, keeping his distance from Rosella to prevent her from overshadowing Camryn.
He and Camryn had just received their marriage license and were newlyweds. He couldn’t stand being apart for even fifteen minutes and wished he could be with her around the clock.
The secretary noted that since becoming a married man, Callum’s evening social activities had significantly decreased.
This, of course, reflected a man who prioritizes family, returning home to his wife after work.
Zachary had also cut back on his evening outings.
“Camryn, come here; let Mom help you with this jewelry and see how well I know your taste,” Rosella said.
Feeling indifferent towards the two devoted husbands, she picked up a necklace and attempted to put it on Camryn.
Camryn replied, “Mom, you’ve given me several sets of jewelry already. This particular set is part of your dowry, and it’s too valuable. I can borrow it for a night, but I can’t accept it.”
She was instantly captivated by the set and liked it immensely, but being her mother-in-law’s dowry, which was more precious due to its age, made her hesitant to accept it.
The jewelry her mother-in-law typically gifted her consisted of new pieces, which held a different significance compared to this set.
Rosella, undeterred, continued to adorn Camryn with necklaces, earrings, diamond rings, and bracelets.
While she assisted Camryn, she said, “I have no daughters, only three sons. From now on, the jewelry in my trousseau will belong to you and your sisters-in-law. I’m still unsure who your two…”
Sisters-in-law, this jewelry set is perfect for you, so I’m giving it to you. Don’t worry; I still have plenty of jewelry left in my store. You can’t possibly exhaust my entire collection by yourself.
If I offer it to you, please accept it. Elders present gifts, and it’s considered impolite to refuse. If you decline, it may seem like you don’t appreciate the jewelry I’ve chosen for you.
Isn’t it beautiful? I believe this jewelry set complements you wonderfully. Your gentle and generous temperament, along with your ladylike style, makes retro jewelry the perfect fit for you.

Camryn looked at Callum as if seeking assistance.
Callum gazed at Camryn for a long moment before addressing Rosella, “Mom, you’ve overshadowed me by comparing this to all the jewelry I’ve given to my wife.”
Then he turned to Camryn and asked, “Wife, since Mom said it’s for you, will you accept it? Is it truly beautiful and a good match for you, or does my mother have a keen eye for detail?”
Camryn: “…”
“Evening dresses…” Rosella began to speak but was cut off by Callum.
“Mom, Camryn already has plenty of evening dresses. You really don’t need to worry about that. Let me have a chance to express myself,” Callum said.
Rosella smiled and replied, “Alright, I’ll let you show off. Just remember, you must treat my daughter-in-law well, or else I won’t let you off easily.”
Callum responded, “I wouldn’t dare mistreat your daughter-in-law, even if it means sacrificing my own comfort.”
