Chapter 1145
Married at First Sight
Camryn had asked her store assistant to help measure her steps as she was visually impaired. Given her short steps, she needed four steps to travel about three feet. Although roughly a thousand feet was not an exact figure, she had to walk over a thousand steps.
Deep down, Camryn was counting her steps as she walked slowly.
Mrs. Newman was not bothered about Camrynâs pace.
After winding up her window, Mrs. Newman called her husband. Once her husband picked up her call, she said, âDarling, I made Camryn meet Serenity.â
Mr. Newman hummed in acknowledgment before he said, âYou need to speak to Camryn nicely. That way, sheâll be willing to beg for mercy on behalf of Carrie.â
âDoes she dare reject my requests?â
Mr. Newman choked, unable to reply.
âDarling, try to pull some strings and see if you can save Carrie. She has been pampered since young.
How can she endure the hardship there?
âAt the thought that sheâs suffering there, my heart aches so much. It was all Camrynâs doing. If it werenât for her, the Hunt girl wouldnât have feuded with Carrie.
âCarrie settled a score with the Hunt girl only because she was wronged, but her plan backfired. The Hunt girl had a hold over Carrie. I really want Camryn to die very badly. Why isnât she dead?â
âHoney.â
On the phone, Mr. Newman said helplessly, âNow isnât the time to vent your anger. I understand that youâre upset and sympathize with Carrie, I sympathize with her too. Letâs see how Camrynâs begging goes. If the Hunt girl insists on pressing charges, weâll make another plan.â
Mrs Newman contained her hatred but uttered, âUgh.â
âYou may carry on with your work. I just wanted to let you know about it.â
With that, Mrs. Newman hung up the phone.
Serenity was unaware that Camryn had come. However, Serenityâs two bodyguards took two stools and were sitting at the entrance of the bookstore. They soon caught sight of Camryn At the same time, those guarding the door received a message from their colleagues who were secretly protecting Serenity.
After confirming Camrynâs identity, a bodyguard got up and walked into the bookstore.
Serenity, who was working in front of the computer, heard some footsteps. She turned her gaze from the screen to the bodyguard and asked softly, âWhatâs wrong?â
âMissus, Ms. Newman is here.â
Serenity was momentarily dazed before she asked, âMs. Newman is here? Whereâs she?â
âSheâs on her way here.â
At the thought that Camryn was visually impaired, Serenity leaped to her feet. She walked past the counter and headed outside.
âSeren, who came?â
When Jasmine saw her good friend going out, she closed the book she was reading halfway through and stuffed it back onto the rack. Then, she followed Serenity out.
âMs. Newman. Sheâs blind.â
Jasmine was dumbfounded.
A blind lady.
âAre you referring to the same Ms. Newman whom you and Elisa have helped before?â Jasmine asked after the thought struck her.
Serenity hummed in acknowledgment as she walked.
After walking out of the bookstore, she saw someone walking slowly.
Once the school gate was opened, a car drove out of the school. It turned left and was heading toward Camryn.
The driver saw Camryn walking in the middle of the road, so he gave her a honk. Camryn promptly moved aside to dodge the car. Given that she was visually impaired and worried, she dodged it so anxiously that she fell on the road. By the time she got up after the car left, she lost her direction.
She had no idea where to go.
