Cold beads of sweat were trickling down Thediusโs back as he felt a chill up his spine.Sunny Southernโฆ Everyone from his generation had heard of his name before. After all, they knew everything that happened to Titus Goldmann. Even though Sunny was a generation younger than Titus, Sunny's reputation in Southeast Eurasia was comparable to that of Nolan's grandfather during those days.Waylon placed his hand on his shoulder and leaned closer. โBesides, Cameron is my fiancee. Now, it's your son who had the guts to lay his fingers on her. Even if Mr. Southern is going to forgive you all, the Goldmanns won't just sit back and watch.โAfter he had finished speaking, Waylon left the living room with his men without turning his head back.Thedius could not come around to his senses even after a long time. His brain was a muddled mess right now. Initially, he assumed Cameron was just nobody and that he could help his son to settle her easily.However, the truth was that his son had messed
โWho are you referring to as shameless? How can you blame me for that?โโAlright, weโll blame that on me.โ Waylon rubbed the corner of her eyes. His thumb then slipped down to her chin, pinched it, and lifted her face. โI shouldnโt have left you, an idiot in the kitchen, alone at home. For safetyโs sake, I should hire a housekeeper and get them to come here when Iโm not at home. She would come here to take care of you, lest you get yourself killed someday in the future.โAt that moment, a rumble from her stomach responded to the suggestion.Waylon chuckled. โAre you hungry?โCameron responded with a hum.Waylon did not want her to stay hungry while she waited for him to clean up the mess. โThe kitchen wonโt be ready to use for a while, so letโs order takeout.โAfter ordering takeout, Cameron sat at the table and gobbled the food. Although the takeout did not taste as good as Waylonโs cooking, it did not taste too bad.It took Waylon an hour and a half to clean up the kitchen. He
Waylonโs gaze was fixed on the face that looked like that of a dirty cat that had just run out of a coal mine and had rubbed its face in ashes without knowing it.Cameron's cheeks warmed up upon seeing that he was staring at her. โWhy are you looking at me?โWaylon could not help but laugh out loud. โYouโre the dignified heir of the Southerns, so why would you look like a dirty cat?โThe original intimate atmosphere was completely interrupted by Waylonโs words, and Cameron pushed him away immediately. โWho are you referring to as a cat!?โHe held her in his arms. โAre you doubting me?โCameron bit his shoulder but did not exert too much force. With that, it opened a chance for Waylon to pinch her cheek and kiss her on the lips.Cameron was stunned because of the ambush and was picked up horizontally before she could react.Cameron struggled in his arms, โWayne, let me down!โWaylon carried her into the bathroom, and Cameron instantly saw her face in the mirror and covered it wi
Cameron sat up and turned on her cell phone when the door closed.While Waylon had been talking on the phone earlier, she had taken out her phone and seen the news while hiding under the blanket.โMinzy Holland is the future eldest daughter-in-law of the Goldmanns?โCameron tutted.โIโm really sorry, but Iโve reserved the title.โAt 7:00 p.m., at the Glitz ClubโฆWaylon was sitting in a private room. There was no one else in the private room except his bodyguards.Soon after that, Mallon appeared and walked toward Waylon with a smile. โMr. Goldmann, are you looking for me?โWaylon asked Mallon to take a seat and motioned to one of the bodyguards to pour him some wine.Under the dimmed light from the lamp in the room, no one could distinguish the expression on Waylonโs face, whether he was joyous or infuriated.He then crossed his legs and leaned back in the chair. โMr. Holland, youโre one of the business partners of the Dominic Group. I asked to meet you here for a reason, and
โHmm... Stop it...โ Cameron pushed him away. She was so sleepy that she could not even open her eyes, and everything happening around her was blurred out to her.Waylonโs Adamโs apple twitched, and he loosened his collar. โLook at you, sleeping as soundly as a baby does.โHe rolled onto the bed, took her into his arms, and stroked her cheek with his palm. โWhen will you make our relationship known to the public?โOn the other side of the city, in the hotelโฆMinzy was sitting on the couch, going through the news article. She had long known that the media would publish the news. Reading how the reporters and editors brought the relationship between her and Waylon to life, she pursed her lips tightly.She was afraid that Waylon would release a statement to clarify their relationship, but she also hoped he would not.โWith this news, can I consider myself somehow related to him now?โThe doorbell rang all of a sudden.Minzy got up and walked up to the door to open it. She was surpr
Mallon left the room after saying what he had to say.The next day, early in the morningโฆA shimmer of light pierced through the curtains and shone on the head of the bed. Cameron turned over, hugged someone beside her, and suddenly opened her eyes.Waylon lay beside her on his side, propping his hand against the side of his forehead as if he had been awake for a long time.He fiddled with the ends of her hair and kissed it. โYouโve woken up?โCameron closed her eyes. โNo, I havenโt.โHe smirked, turned over, and covered her with his body in an instant.Cameron opened her eyes immediately and pressed her hands against his chest. โWayne Goldmann!โHis kiss stopped at the corner of her lips. โWhatโs up?โโI want to eat The Atticโs short ribs.โThe last time they ordered takeout from that place, she got to try the short ribs once, and she really liked them.Waylon chuckled, knowing that she was changing the subject. โAlright, Iโll go and buy them.โHe was about to get up, but
Seeing that Cameron was so jealous, Waylon laughed out loud. โWhoโs the one who told me that we wonโt be making our relationship public? How do you plan to explain this to the media and public if we are caught and photographed by paparazzi?โCameron choked on her own words. She suddenly remembered that she had said something about not wanting to make things between them public before this.Waylon raised his eyebrows slightly. โIs that all you have to say?โShe was a little embarrassed.โIโm indeed the one who said that I didn't want to be made public back then, but Iโm also the one whoโs demanding to make things public now. Did I just smack myself in the face?โโYouโre going back on your own words now, and Iโm confused about what I should believe and ignore.โ Waylon propped his hand against the side of his forehead and gave off a clearly satisfied expression accompanied by traces of innocence.โIf our marriage were to be made public, you might start to regret marrying me and ask
#Am I the only one who thinks that this old man is trying his best to help his daughter cut ties with the eldest heir of the Goldmanns? Could it be that heโs a very promiscuous man?##Oh my, now that you mentioned it, when Mr. Goldmann attended the variety show with Daisie, the way he looked at and interacted with Ms. Southern seemed rather flirtatious, but heโs now having a private meal with another woman. Speaking of which, the second heir of the Goldmanns and Daisie have both settled down, and the eldest brother is the only one left. Itโs hard not to let my imagination run wild.##Mr. Goldmann is giving me a playboy vibe now. He seems to treat all women too well...#At BlackgoldโฆWaylon closed the lid of his laptop after watching the news regarding Mallonโs clarification. As for the gossip on the Internet, he straight-up ignored all of them.Leonardo knocked on the door at that moment.He lifted his gaze. โCome in.โLeonardo pushed the door into the office and asked, โMr. Gol
โDaisie.โ Leah and Morrison walked up to her with wine glasses. โYou look so pretty today.โโThank you,โ Daisie said with a smile.Leah lifted her wine glass. โI propose a toast. Morrison and I wish you a happy marriage.โDaisie clinked glasses with her. โSame goes for you and Morrison.โAfter the toast, Cameron walked up to Daisie with Waylon. Behind them were Freyja, Colton, Maisie, and Nolan.Maisie raised her hand and caressed her on the cheek. โYou were great earlier today.โShe giggled. โReally?โNolan added, โYouโll forever be our dazzling pride, so yes.โDaisie grinned as if she was still the little princess of the family.Nollace came over. โDad, Mom, a toast to the both of you. Thank you for letting me have Daisieโs hand.โโConsider yourself lucky.โ Nolan snorted softly, picked up his wine glass, and clinked glasses with him. โYouโd better treat my daughter well from now on.โNollace glanced at Daisie. โDonโt worry. Sheโll forever be my one and only.โMaisie chuck
In order to make way for the wedding carriage, other vehicles had been forbidden from accessing the route from the palace to the cathedral.Daisie looked out of the carriageโthe streets were crowded with citizens, and they were all there to witness this grand scene.Nollace, sitting on the side, was wearing a double-breasted dark blue military jacket. He looked tall and broad, and there were two St. Patrickโs Stars on his epaulets, one on each side, a full set of medals on his chest, and other complicated decorations.He held the back of Daisieโs hand and smiled suddenly. โYou have sweaty palms.โDaisie looked back at him and responded with a trembling voice, โIโm nervous.โHe lifted her hand and kissed the back of her hand. โIโm here, so donโt be nervous. Just take it easy.โDaisieโs gaze landed on his wedding jacket. โYou look nice in this uniform.โNollace chuckled. โAnd my bride looks stunning too.โArriving at the cathedral, Nollace was separated from Daisie. Accompanied b
โBy the way, whereโs Cameron?โ asked Morrison.Waylon replied, โSheโs accompanying her father on a stroll. Iโm going to go meet them already, so Iโll leave you to yourselves for now. You can do whatever you want with your free time.โAfter saying that, he got up and left the couple.Morrison shook his head. โHeโs changed now that he has a wife.โโYouโre speaking as if you havenโt changed.โ Leah got up instantly and left the restaurant.Morrison put his cup down and caught up to her immediately. โHey, why would you leave me behind? Wait for me.โMaisie and Saydie came out of the private room and ran into Nolan and Quincy in the corridor.Quincy nodded. โMrs. Goldmann.โMaisie stopped in front of Nolan, and Nolan grabbed her by her hand. โHave you finished catching up?โโOf course. Didnโt you want to go to the Hathawaysโ villa with Dad in the afternoon?โNolan smiled. โI was waiting for you. Weโre just going over to have a meal together.โQuincy walked up to Saydieโs side and
Daisie grinned from ear to ear. โThen Iโll wear this crown on my wedding day, which can be considered an endorsement for my momโs jewelry company and design.โNollace hugged her from behind. โYou can do anything as long as you like it.โโฆThe members of the Goldmanns arrived in Yaramoor two days before the wedding and stayed in the hotel arranged by Nollace. The royal family had reserved the entire hotel for receiving distinguished guests from Zlokova who came to attend the wedding.Members from the Bouchers and the Lucases showed up, and Sunny was also present.There were also some familiar faces from the Zlokovian entertainment industry. Hannah, Amy, James, and Charlie, who were close friends with Daisie, all came.Leah and Morrison were also on the invitation list.When Maisie came to the restaurant, the waiter led her into a private room.As soon as she saw the man sitting inside, she smiled and exclaimed, โGodfather!โStrix slowly turned around.She had not seen him for
The rest of the people laughed.The night came, and the entire city was shrouded in a mist of neon light. Daisie and Nollace returned to Taylorton after having their dinner.Her hair was wet as she got out of the shower. Nollace took over her towel and helped her to dry her hair.She sat in front of her dresser and looked at the person behind her through the mirror. There was a smile tugging at the corner of her mouth as she said, โNolly, Iโm really looking forward to our wedding.โโReally?โ Nollace gently dried the soft tips of her hair. โIโm looking forward to it too.โโI can say that my life is perfect now, right? Since I can marry and walk down the aisle with the man I love the most.โHe laughed out loud and leaned down to her ear. โYou know what? All the wishes in my life have come true as well.โDaisie turned her head around. โWhat are your wishes?โโMarry you, give you a wedding, and have our own kids.โShe was stunned. Slowly, her face turned red due to her embarrassme
โYeah, itโs true,โ replied Zephir.โIt seems like youโve finally become more mature after coming back from your vacation.โ Naomi patted his shoulder. โI wish you all the best in your future endeavors.โ He smiled at her but did not say anything.โฆSoon, it was the end of the month. Their vacation had come to an end, and they returned to Bassburgh.Maisie and Nolan were waiting for them in the courtyard. After getting out of the car, Daisie ran up to them. โMommy! Daddy!โShe hugged both of them.Nolan petted her head and smiled helplessly. โYouโre an adult now. You should stop acting like a kid.โShe smiled back at them and said, โBut I know Iโll always be your kid in your eyes.โMaisie chuckled and looked at the other people. โIt seems like you guys had a lot of fun. Anyway, come in first. We should eat together tonight.โFreyja and Cameron went to look for their kids after they went into the house. Charm and her two cousins were staying in the same room. All of them were sl
Nollace looked at them. โWhat a coincidence.โโMorrison and I were here earlier than you guys,โ said Leah. โWe only found out that you guys were here when Daisie posted a photo on her Facebook page.โDaisie pulled Leah to the seat and said, โThen you should stay a few more days with us.โAfter Morrison took his seat, Waylon introduced him to Freyja and Daisie. โSheโs my sister-in-law, Freyja, and sheโs my sister. Her name is Daisie.โโIโve seen them before at your wedding,โ said Morrison. โYour sister is my wifeโs classmate. She has told me before.โโSince when did I become your wife? Thereโs a chance I may not marry you in the future,โ said Leah.โWeโre already engaged. If you donโt want to marry me, who else are you going to marry?โ Morrison frowned, causing the crowd to break out in a burst of laughter, save for Daisie.She looked at Leah in disbelief and asked, โEngaged? When did you get engaged, Leah?โ Leah cleared her throat and replied, โWell, I forgot to inform you abo
The stall owner said, โ$10 for three chances.โโ$10 for three chances only? Thatโs expensive,โ commented Freyja.The stall owner raised his head and said, โIโm the cheapest around here. Other stalls offer $15 for three chances.โ Daisie tugged at Freyja and said, โLet's just give him the money. It isn't easy for them to set up a stall here anyway, so let's have some fun.โAfter that, she gave $20 to the stall owner and said, โPlease give us six hoops.โThe stall owner gave her six hoops. She had her eyes set on a bracelet. Although she knew it was fake, it was rather beautiful. She held a hoop and threw it toward the bracelet.However, she did not get it.She threw another two hoops at the bracelet, but her attempts failed, much to her chagrin. She had only three hoops left.Seeing that Daisie was prepared to give up, Cameron took over the rest of the hoops in her hand and said, โLeave it to me.โShe squinted and aimed at the bracelet. After that, she threw the hoop at it an
The night of the old town was silent. The air was filled with nothing but the humming of insects. There was a lamp hanging outside of the tent on the grass. The atmosphere was quiet. Daisie was tossing and turning in the sleeping bag as sleep just wouldn't come to her. Suddenly, an arm appeared across her waist as she was brought into a chest. โWhatโs the matter? You canโt sleep?โโYeahโฆโ She buried her head in his chest and said, โI want to go to take a leak, but Iโm a little bit scared.โNollace kissed her forehead and said, โIโll go with you then.โBoth of them came out of the tent. Nollace took a flashlight and led Daisie to a row of trees in the distance. Daisie turned her head and said, โYou wait for me here.โNollace nodded. โJust shout my name if you need anything.โShe walked into the forest and stopped in front of a tree not far away from Nollace.After she had done her business, she hastily got out of the forest and held tightly to Nollaceโs arm. โAlright, letโs go
