Chapter 1014

It had long come to Mr. Newman’s attention that Zachary was aloof and not the easiest to get on with.

It was too early for Mr. Newman to say if he could get along with Zachary. Nevertheless, it was true that

Zachary was an indifferent man. Mr. Newman had been around the business world for many years, and

during his management of Newman Enterprise for more than a decade had turned a small business

into a billion–dollar corporation.

Although the Newmans thrived in foreign business, Mr. Newman had influence and connections in

Wiltspoon too.

“Mr. Zachary, I’m here to apologize on behalf of my daughter and wife,” Mr. Newman explained with a

smile.

Zachary callously replied, “I’ve never met your wife and daughter.”

“Here’s the thing, Mr. Zachary. My wife and daughter got into a bit of a misunderstanding and conflict

with your wife. I have given them a telling–off, but since my wife has to take care of my sick daughter,

I’m here on behalf of them to apologize to your wife.

“I didn’t want to intrude on your wife without your permission, so I came here to consult with you. Can I

make a personal apology to your wife? I’m sorry. My deepest apologies.”

Zachary was very protective of Serenity. The media would not be so bold as to pester Serenity to this

day. The occasional pictures of Serenity were taken in secret. Even so, no one would post the photos

on the web without Zachary knowing about it..

Callum was confused by the conversation. Why did Zack call him here when Mr. Newman stepped on

Serenity’s toes?

“No need for a personal apology. Just watch your wife and daughter. My wife took a liking to Ms.

Camryn and is looking to be friends with her.”

Enough was said–Serenity butted into the Newmans‘ business to take Camryn’s side and Nana

thought Camryn would be perfect for Callum.

Nevertheless, Mrs. Newman and Carrie would not take Serenity’s words to heart as Serenity did not

carry any influence yet. In fact, it gave Mrs. Newman and Carrie ammo to pick on Camryn.

Zachary was sending a clear message to Mr. Newman that Camryn was off–limits.

It might put Camryn in a better situation.

By now, Callum had an idea of what was going on.

So, Mr. Newman was Camryn’s stepfather and uncle.

Zack called Callum here not to talk about work, but to let him know about Camryn’s predicament…

Callum had mixed feelings about the whole thing. Uff, it was going to be a pain.novelbin

Kevin lost it when he and Callum got the photographs of their potential wives from Grandma May.

Refucing to take his nana seriously, Kevin nearly burned the photo but was stopped by Callum.

There was no point burning the photos when their nana had made her strike. She kept copies, so there

was no escaping.

Callum had sarcastically told Kevin then, “I dare you to run away from home, and don’t come back so

long as Nana is alive.”

Running away from home was not an option. Plus, Zachary would break his legs if Kevin was ever

found.

Although Kevin was not pleased that Grandma May had selected a tomboy for him, he loved his nana

dearly. It was insolent to stay away from home instead of being by his nana’s side during her last days.

Grandma May gave them a year anyway. The York boys were not in a rush.

Alas, Zack poked his nose in this.

“Camryn is lucky that your wife looks favorably on her.”

Mr. Newman bore a smile on his face, but Zachary could tell the fakeness from a mile away.

Truth be told, Mr. Newman was livid.

Sure, Camryn was an heiress of the Newman family, but everybody knew that she was a fatherless

wretch. She was a nobody in the Newman household, and even the maids gave her an attitude.

The fact that Mrs. York wanted to befriend Camryn was not music to Mr. Newman’s ears.

He believed Camryn stole the glory that belonged to his daughter. Mrs. York should be getting along

with his younger daughter instead.

Despite his annoyance, Mr. Newman did not show it on his face and said nice things about Camryn.

After speaking well of Camryn, Mr. Newman added, “Camryn is a nice girl, but she’s lost her sense of

sight. There are a lot of inconveniences that come with blindness, so her interaction with your wife

might be…”

He left his words hanging there.
