Chapter 1328
Even though many gowns were made in that style, they just did not like it.
The York men wanted to cover their women tightly; not even exposing their arms.
At that moment, Camryn’s appearance made others want to bite into her.
“Ms. Newman looks very beautiful tonight.”
Callum praised Camryn before turning back to the Newman couple. “Mr. and Mrs. Newman, I saw an acquaintance of mine and will go to say hello to him. Head on inside. Many bosses are here already.”
“Go ahead, Mr. York,” Mr. Newman spoke politely.
He caught the amazement in Callum’s eyes when the latter looked at Camryn earlier. However, Callum only glanced at her twice, praised her, and stopped looking at her. It was clear that he was not charmed by Camryn.
Mr. Newman thought that if Camryn could bewitch Callum, he would give her to Callum and let Callum speak up for Carrie. Serenity would definitely spare Carrie for the sake of her brother–in- law.
What a shame; even the stunning Camryn could not tempt Callum.
They had no choice but to move according to their plan and sell Camryn to a man from the hosting family of this banquet, the Marshalls. In any case, the man had to possess some standing in the family.
The Marshalls and Yorks were family friends.
Even the young masters of the Yorks were attending Old Mr. Marshall’s banquet, so it was clear the relationship between the two families was closer than others thought.
Mr. and Mrs. Newman wanted to ask the Marshall family to mediate for them.
After Callum left, the Newman family walked into the hotel under the guidance of the staff.
Jasmine turned to look at him and asked, “What is it?”
Josh was speechless. “Don’t you have to wait for me…?”
“You know the way. This place should be as familiar as home to you.”
Josh quickly walked over, wrapped an arm around Jasmine’s waist, and whispered in her ear, “Ms. Sox, you must remember that you’re my date tonight! Important things should be repeated thrice. You’re my date. You’re my date. You’re my date!
“How can you go in by yourself without waiting for me? Hold my arm. Don’t you see other couples doing the same?”
Jasmine pulled away his hand that was holding her waist, then took his hand and intertwined their fingers. “Let’s go. I’ll take you inside with me.”
She had to do this lest he act bitter.
