Married at First Sight

Callum laughed. "That was just a figure of speech, son. Did Grandma know you were going out?"

"She knew. I asked her to bring me. I miss you and Mom."

Callum's voice turned gentle. "Dad misses you too."noveldrama

"Dad, we're on summer break. Why don't you take a summer break too?"

Cairo was curious why his parents still had to work during his vacation. He didn't

get why they weren't home with him, especially when they sometimes had to travel for business.

Callum chuckled. "Only students and teachers get summer and winter breaks. Grown-ups have to work. If we don't work, how can we earn money to send you to school and buy all your favorite toys?"

Cairo seemed to understand and said, "Oh," before handing the phone over to Camryn. "It's almost the end of the workday," she said. "I'll bring our son to pick you up. Mom's with us, so let's go out for dinner."

Rosella, who had joined them, spoke up: "We're family, no need to be so formal. Let's just go home and eat. I'll eat whatever you cook. I'm not picky, and I don't want to eat out."

She liked the comfort of home-cooked meals, even though the food at the hotel was excellent. The atmosphere just wasn't the same.

Normally, Camryn and Callum lived at the Newman villa near the city. Their son, who had been staying there for school, was back at the main villa for summer vacation to keep his grandparents company.

Rosella now came over more often to visit her son and daughter-in-law.

After hearing his mom's suggestion, Callum agreed. "Then we'll eat at home. I still

have a few things to finish, but they'll be done by the time you arrive."

"Just in time for me to get off and start cooking. I won't need to pick up any groceries, right?"

Camryn said, "No need. The butler stocks up on fresh ingredients every day."

No matter when they came home, there was always food ready to be cooked. The York men were not only skilled in martial arts-they were great cooks too. The Newman butler had long since gotten used to leaving the kitchen duties to the master whenever he was home. The chef got the day off.

Rosella especially loved her son's cooking.

"Then we'll head back and start dinner."

"Alright, you go wrap up your work. Cairo said he wants to video call Baby- Maverick."

Camryn ended the call and dialed Serenity for a video chat between the kids. Maverick and Bethany had just come inside with River. Serenity took the phone and said,

"Baby, Belle, come over! Cairo wants to video chat."

River, carrying Belle, joked, "Cairo, don't you want to video chat with Uncle River?"

"Uncle River! Uncle River!" Cairo shouted excitedly. "Mom, I want to go to Uncle River's house to play. Can I go, please?"

River was speechless.

If Camryn actually let Cairo visit, the kid would never want to leave—and his house would instantly become a daycare center.
