Chapter 1249
Callum did not speak.
Camryn remained silent when she did not get an answer.
She could feel Callum’s gaze on her.
After a while, the waiter served the food.
“Let’s eat.”
Callum finally opened his mouth but did not answer Camryn.
Camryn could not see, so he filled her bowl with soup and placed it in front of her. “Have some soup first. I’ll serve you the other
dishes when you’re done.”
“Thank you, Mr. Callum.”
“You’re welcome.”
Callum also served himself a bowl of soup and ate while occasionally putting more food on Camryn’s plate.
Camryn usually ordered fast food where all the side dishes were placed together, so she could just eat slowly.
Now that she was eating with Callum, she did not know where the food was. Even when she reached out to stab the food with
her fork, she did not know what she would be eating.
She could only’accept Callum’s care.
If it could be avoided, she never wanted to eat with Callum again in her life.
“Do you like shrimp?” Callum asked as he finished the soup and placed the bowl down. Without waiting for her answer, he put on
a pair of disposable gloves, grabbed a few shrimps to peel off the shells, and dipped them into the sauce before placing them on
Camryn’s plate.
“I deshelled the shrimp and dipped them in the sauce for you. You can eat them straight.“
If Grandma May were here to see Callum’s actions, she would praise him for being thoughtful. He was much better than Zachary
was in the past.
Back then, Zachary still needed Grandma May to hint at him. He was proud and unwilling to admit that he cared about Serenity,
so he used Sonny as an excuse. Grandma May wanted. to kick him.
“Thank you, Mr. Callum.”
Camryn expressed her gratitude.
She used to eat shrimp with shells on without the dipping sauce because it was inconvenient.
However, she usually did not eat seafood at home. They would not give her the chance to.
All they gave her was plain pasta. If her stepfather was home, she would get a few meatballs.
Her mother said that she was blind and could not see the food she was eating, so it was good enough that she had pasta to eat.
At least she would not starve to death.
Callum was much nicer to her than her family.
Camryn was grateful for his thoughtfulness, but she wondered why he was doing this. It could not be because he fancied her,
right?
Before she lost her sight, she knew she was very good–looking. Her stepfather said that she took after both her parents‘ best
features. She looked like her father and mother at the same time.
Carrie was extremely jealous of her good looks.
However, with Callum’s status, he should have seen all kinds of beautiful women out there. How could he fancy a blind person
like her?
Even if... Even if he fancied her now, it was short–lived. It was just for the novelty.
At that thought, Camryn told herself, ‘Don’t get captivated by Callum’s momentary thoughtfulness. He will never marry a blind
person. He’s just in it for the novelty.”
Callum did not know that Camryn had built up a wall in her heart to keep him out and make his road to court her even more
arduous.
After he peeled the shrimp for her, he gave her a drumstick and a fish filet. “I’m a gentleman. I’m not doing this as a favor to you.
I’m taking care of you because this was how I was raised. You don’t need to feel indebted to me.”
Camryn smiled faintly. “Thank you, Mr. Callum. Am I really not in your debt if you do this for me?”
“You’re not.”
“I’m relieved.”
If he told her that she was indebted to him and asked her to buy him another meal, she would have words with him.
The two enjoyed their meal.
When it was time to bill, it was naturally Camryn who paid since it was her treat. “I’ll send you back to your shop, Ms. Newman.”
