Chapter 1658
Serenity poured three glasses of water and gave one glass to her nephew. Then, she brought over two glasses of water and sat in front of Camryn. She handed one of them to Camryn.
Serenity and Camryn drank half the glasses of water.
“Camryn, go ahead. What do you want to ask me?”
“It seems that Callum went missing these two days. Is he away on a business trip?”
Serenity was surprised that Camryn asked about Callum’s whereabouts.
Callum went to Annenburg to beg Dr. Carden to treat Camryn’s eyes. He did not tell Camryn about it. Before he received Dr. Carden’s promise to treat Camryn’s eyes, he planned to keep it from her to avoid disappointing her.
Aunt Evelyn went to search for the doctor’s apprentice to treat Camryn’s eyes. As she was not as well–connected as Callum, she had no idea that Dr. Carden had returned to Annenburg.
The apprentice was Camryn’s last hope. Although she did not mention it, Callum knew that she held high hopes for it.
If he failed to get Dr. Carden’s promise to treat Camryn’s eyes, Camryn would be deeply disappointed.
Callum did not let Camryn know, nor did he come over. Camryn could not help but guess his whereabouts.
It was precisely because Camryn was guessing Callum’s whereabouts and lost in thought that she did not pick up on Serenity’s footsteps.
After asking Serenity, Camryn laughed self–deprecatingly. “He usually sticks to me like glue. He’s so annoying that I often ignore him. Now that he’s not around for two days, I can’t help but ask. about where he is.”
Camryn did not dislike Callum. Being visually impaired, she felt that she did not deserve to be with. him. She did not want to be Callum’s burden, so she always rejected him when he passionately went after her.
“Didn’t Callum tell you?” Serenity asked.
Camryn shook her head. “He didn’t tell me anything. He suddenly disappeared for two days without giving me a call. Is he away on a business trip?”
