Camryn had learned how to build a wall around her; rumors could not hurt her at all. Her aunts and Carrie had tried various ways to ruin her reputation by going to the York family, yet all their attempts had failed. The only person she cared about, Callum, had chosen to trust her and stay by her side unconditionally. There was nothing that could hurt her anymore. “That’s right. Ignore what others say. Many people used to badmouth Elisa too. They kept criticizing her.“Didn’t you think Elisa was nice after getting to know her? That’s why it’s better not to care about other people’s opinions. They’re just jealous.”Camryn replied, “Yes. They’re just jealous. Elisa was hit the worst out of all of us.”Luckily, Elisa had always had a positive attitude. She continued doing things her way despite the rumors about her. It was obvious that those people were just envious of her courage to pursue Zachary. Zachary was the man of countless women’s dreams when he was single. However, n

Birth rates started falling as fewer marriages took place. Even newly introduced government policies were unable to incentivize the younger generation to marry and have children. Camryn and Tasha soon arrived at the manor’s entrance while chatting. As most guests were arriving at that hour, the Houses’ outdoor parking lot could not fit that many cars. The employees were directing the guests to park outside the manor or by the roadside, which already had a long row of cars parked. “Ms. Tasha.”One of the maids called Tasha the moment she walked out. Tasha first greeted the guests who had just arrived and got someone to guide them into the manor. After looking around, she could not spot Mrs. Longbottom. She asked, “Where’s Mrs. Longbottom?”“She’s still in her car. It was just parked.”The maid pointed at a luxury car not too far away. In the car, Carrie had spotted Camryn and Tasha. She used to attend banquets often with her mother and had met Tasha several times. How

‘Camryn had wronged me first. How dare she say I’m the one to blame?’Camryn was slandering her simply because she could not defend herself. The public praised Camryn for her gentleness. Although she was constantly bullied and treated worse than a maid in the Newman family, she seemed more like an elite lady than Carrie was. No one knew how cunning Camryn was. Tasha smiled. “Let’s head inside, Mrs. Longbottom.”She did not forget to hold Camryn’s hand after speaking. Camryn could see, but it was only limited to short distances. Tasha knew she needed to take care of Camryn, whose sight was like that of someone with high myopia. Although they had not interacted much before, they quickly got along that night. Tasha liked being friends with Camryn. Carrie was jealous upon seeing Tasha taking care of Camryn. Her bodyguards were worried that she might expose herself. When Tasha was not paying attention, they stepped forward and nudged Carrie as a reminder to control her emo

No wonder Elisa was her only best friend. Tasha was not picky about friends, but… It was difficult to sustain a friendship when two parties shared different views. “Camryn only regained her sight because of Callum. He had to travel several times to get Dr. Carden to treat her eyes. I don’t know how Camryn got so lucky to receive his love.“I saw it when she came in too. Mrs. York treats her well. I heard that she’s very protective of Camryn.“Some people are just lucky.”Tasha sensed the jealousy and bitterness in Sally’s words, especially when Callum was mentioned. She eyed Sally and asked straightforwardly, “Do you have a crush on Callum?”Sally blushed immediately. Indeed she had. Whenever she saw him during banquets, she would hover within his peripheral vision deliberately. Unfortunately, she never caught his attention, not even once. She told her mother that she liked Callum and wanted to be his wife. Her parents supported her, but they said she had to count on he

A few ladies gathered in the lavish living area. They conversed with polite smiles plastered on their faces. Born with a silver spoon and married into another wealthy family, they have lived in luxury and every action was infused with elegance. Carrie was led into the manor where she greeted Mrs. House and had small talks with. It was her first public appearance as Mrs. Longbottom. Everyone barely knew her. Carrie was quick-witted enough to mingle with other guests and initiate conversations. In the past, she had attended many banquets with Paige and acquainted herself with quite a few madams and young ladies. Although she was Mrs. Longbottom now, she could still interact with people she recognized. Since they did not know she was Carrie, she could use it to her advantage and carry the conversations based on their preferences so as to get along with them. After Camryn entered, she sat beside Rosella instead of approaching Carrie. Rosella glanced at Carrie, who was engag
