Chapter 1243
Married at First Sight
Callumâs secretary looked at the bouquet Camryn was holding and said warmly, âPlease wait a moment. Iâll call and ask Mr. Callum.â
The secretary had not received the news, so he had to ask Callum for confirmation before. he could let Camryn in to see him.
âOf course.â
Camryn stood there quietly, waiting for the secretary to use the intercom to confirm with Callum.
Soon, he walked up to her and said warmly, âPlease come with me.â
âThank you.â
Camryn thanked the secretary as she followed him.
When they came to his office, the secretary knocked on the door and went in first to announce that Camryn had arrived.
âLet her in.â
Callum was still busy, so he responded in a deep voice without raising his head.
The secretary invited Camryn to enter the office before retreating.
Camryn listened attentively to which direction Callumâs voice resounded from when he talked to the secretary.
She walked straight in that direction after entering the office.
When she encountered something along the way, she avoided it. Although she walked very slowly, she managed to make her way to Callumâs desk.
The reason she was sure she reached his desk was that her walking stick poked Callumâs foot under the desk. She hurriedly retracted the cane.
Callum only looked up when his foot was poked by her cane.
âWhy are you so late? I was just about to leave work.â
Callum complained about Camrynâs tardiness the moment he opened his mouth.
Camryn fumbled and leaned the white cane against his desk, then handed the bouquet to Callum and said apologetically, âI canât see, so I walk slower than normal. Thatâs why Iâm late. This is the bouquet you asked for on the phone.â
âTell me. How did you come here?â
Callum took the flowers and casually placed them on the table. He did not like flowers. He was just looking for an excuse for Camryn to come over.
âI had one of my assistants drive me to the entrance of the office building, then I walked. myself in.â
âNo one led you here?â
âNo, I only asked how to get to your office from the entrance.â
Callum hummed and looked at her for a moment before saying gently, âHave a seat.â
Huh?
Camryn was a little stunned. She thought Callum would let her go back after she delivered the bouquet and received the payment from him.
âSince youâre here, sit down for some water.â
Callum got up as he spoke and walked around the desk to pour a cup of warm water for Camryn.
Camryn felt around for a chair and carefully sat down. She hurriedly thanked Callum when he handed her a cup of warm water.
âIf I tell you not to let your assistant drive you here, can you take a car to my company?â Callum asked as he returned to his seat.
Camryn paused before saying, âIs there a bus that stops in front of your company?â
âThere are several buses that pass by the entrance of my company.â
âIf someone can send me to the bus stop, I can reach your company without needing my assistant to drop me off.â
After staring at her for another moment, Callum pursed his lips and said, âTry coming by yourself next time. Tell your employee to stop Bus No. 6 for you. That one can reach my company.â
Camyrn was silent for a moment before asking, âMr. York, did I offend you somehow?
