Not only that, but the moves that Waylon was using this time around were those that Cameron had never seen before. Cameron was almost surprised.โDid he not give it everything he had when he was fighting me back when we were still in the East Islands?โHowever, now that heโs facing Nick, his attacks look extremely strong and offensive, so aggressive that they were giving Nick a sense of oppression.Nick did not pull his punches either. However, after a few rounds into the fight, he did not even dare to let his guard down against Waylon.He had looked into Waylonโs backgroundโhe was the official successor of the Goldmannsโ Night Banquet. Most importantly, Waylon had always been good at his intense and offensive attacks, and every move that he let out would always accurately target his opponentโs weaknesses.The people in the audience were both excited and nervous. It was simply a duel between two of the strongest.Cameron did not dare to even blink throughout the entirety of the b
Dylan was astonished and put the ointment away. โIs he really that strong?โโHeโs the successor of the Goldmannsโ Night Banquet. Itโs not surprising that he has such skills.โ Nick kept his cool throughout the conversation and did not show dissatisfaction regarding the fact that he had just lost to Waylon.โThere will always be someone whoโs better than I am. Wayne one-upped me very convincingly in that match.โDylan curled his lips. โBut I think he did it on purpose, as if he has a grudge against you.โNick smiled.โWhat he has against me isnโt a grudge, or is it?โOn the other side of the city, at EmperonโฆCameron sat at the table with one hand propped against her forehead, staring at the man cooking in the kitchen. After returning home, he put on a dark gray knitted sweater and a pair of light-colored loose cotton linen trousers. But no matter what he was wearing, it was impossible for him not to look good with that look of his.Perhaps it was because of the refined and well-
Cameron let the children train among themselves and sat aside, checking her phone every now and then. She wondered if her words were too harsh last night. Suddenly, one of the little girls started crying. Cameron found out that it was because the boy sparring with her had hit her too hard and hurt her. Cameron took out a few tissues to dry her tears. โIโll get him to apologize, alright? Look, you donโt look pretty when you cry.โThe girl blew her nose and stopped crying soon after. Cameron looked toward the boy and saw the name on his shoulder: Chadwick Boucher. Chadwick looked away. โSheโs so weak.โCameron took a deep breath, walked to him, and leaned down. โYou should apologize to the girl.โโI did nothing wrong. Sheโs just too weak.โCameron smiled. โYouโre right. She is weak, but why do we learn martial arts?โHe didnโt speak.โItโs to protect ourselves and have the courage to help the weak. Youโre stronger and faster than her. She lost, but you canโt make her cry ju
โI donโt know how to make a marriage work, nor do I know how to tolerate. I know that tolerating doesnโt mean that I have to live according to how others want me to.โIfโฆ If this is how marriages are supposed to be, Iโd rather notโโWaylon walked toward her and pulled her into his arms. She froze in his arms. Waylon wrapped his arms tighter around her. He shouldnโt have forced her.โIโm sorry, Cam.โCameron pressed her lips together and buried her face into his shoulder. Waylon tilted her face upward and kissed between her brows. โI shouldnโt have kept you by my side and made you feel as though youโve lost your freedom. Iโm sorry.โCameron looked up at him. โAre you afraid that I will cheat on you?โHe was taken aback. โWhat?โCameron clicked her tongue and turned away. โYou donโt want me to be around Nick because youโre afraid that I might cheat on you with him. If there was something between us, we would have been together already. You wouldnโt stand a chance.โHer last s
Waylon cleared his throat and messed up his hair. โThat's your aunt.โChadwick was shocked. That โmanโ was his โauntโ?Waylon didnโt explain it to him well enough, so Chadwick misunderstood. During the training, Chadwick kept looking at Cameron with a weird look. Cameron felt chills down her back because someone kept staring at her. She looked around and realized it was that little kid. The little boy realized that he had been spotted, so he quickly looked away and continued training. When they were taking a break, Chadwick walked aside to drink. The cool boy would bring water whenever he went. โYour name is Chadwick Boucher, right?โWhen he heard Cameron's voice, he shuddered and almost spilled his drink. โYes, how may I help you?โCameron froze because this boy was speaking like an adult.She didnโt think much about it but leaned down and looked at him. โI noticed that you have good basic training. Do you want to be my student?โChadwick smiled but hesitated. He didnโ
Waylon smiled and pushed Cameronโs hair behind her back, showing her forehead. He planted a kiss in between her eyebrows very carefully. Waylon and Cameron saw Chadwick at school the next day. Chadwick walked out of his classroom, saw that Waylon was with a woman, and froze. โAdults are so weird. He was with a man the other day, but now he is with a woman.โ Waylon waved at him. โChaddy, come and meet your aunt.โChadwick was nervous. โHow many wives do you have?โCameron couldnโt help but laugh. Waylon pushed her forward. โTake a closer look.โCameron smiled at him. โHello Chadwick, we meet again.โChadwick realized that Cameron looked familiar, and his expression turned into one of shock. โYouโre Master Southern!?โCameron gave him a thumbs up. โClever.โHe was even more disgusted. โWhy are you in womenโs clothes?โCameron was rendered speechless. โCan I beat him up?โAfter Waylon explained everything to the kid, he finally realized what had happened and lowered his he
Diana asked anxiously, โHoney, do you think Daisie will like these gifts or not? What if she doesn't like them? Hmmโฆ I feel like something is missing. Should we go buy more?โRick massaged his temples and shook his head helplessly. His wife had never been so thoughtful when preparing his birthday present.Soon, a maid called her from downstairs. โMaโam, Master Nollace is back.โDiana left her husband at the side and ran downstairs. When she saw Daisie and Nollace, she went up to them with a smile on her face. Ignoring Nollace, she rushed right up to Daisie and hugged her. โDaisie, youโve finally come to visit me. Do you know how much Iโve missed you?โDaisie had already experienced Dianaโs enthusiasm. Putting on a smile, she said, โMe too, Mom.โDiana was stunned. She looked at Daisie with disbelief and asked, โWhat did you just call me?โโMom? You donโt like it?โ Daisie thought Diana did not like her calling her that.But other people said they should call their husbandโs mot
Daisie smiled. โItโs okay. I can eat anything.โโAlright. Iโll go downstairs first.โBefore Diana went away, she looked at Nollace and said, โDonโt you dare bully Daisie, you got it?โNollace was rendered speechless.After Diana left, Daisie couldnโt hold herself back anymore and laughed. โYour mother is still as enthusiastic as always.โNollace chuckled helplessly. โThatโs because she likes you.โDaisie looked at him and said, โShe likes you too. After all, youโre her only son.โHe was stunned. He knew Daisie was comforting him and laughed. โAre you afraid I'll be upset?"She did not say anything.Nollace caressed her hair and kissed her forehead. โItโs a good thing that my mother likes you. If possible, I want to give you all the love in this world.โWhen they were having dinner, Diana just talked to Daisie and ignored her son and husband.โSweetheart, you canโt just eat meat. You need to eat some vegetables too. Green food is healthy and nutritious.โ After Diana finished
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
