“Do you think Camryn can marry into the Yorks even if we want her to?”
Mr. Newman said, “I don’t want her to marry into the Yorks either. Although I dote on her because she’s my brother’s only child, I love our son and daughter more. How could I possibly let her marry into the wealthiest family in Wiltspoon?
“Don’t think about getting Carrie to marry into the Yorks either; she doesn’t stand a chance. Putting aside everything else, the mere fact that we have a beef with Mr. and Mrs. York makes it impossible for the other bachelors of the Yorks to like her. Carrie is only twenty, so there’s no hurry for her to get married now.
“What we need to do is to get her out first.”
Mr. and Mrs. Newman walked to the couch and sat. The latter asked, “How do we save her? We’ve bowed our heads and apologized, but they were all to no avail. We initially found someone who could help mediate the situation, but it was ruined by Mr. Callum.
“Darling, will Mr. Callum recognize that man is from the Marshalls? The man is a Marshall, but he’s their fifth cousin. If he’s identified, the Marshalls themselves will take action to punish him.
“His family is five degrees separated from Old Mr. Marshall’s lineage; even though he’s rich, he barely has a say in their family. Mr. Callum probably wouldn’t recognize him. The Yorks are only close to the Marshalls’ lineal descent, so they might not know anyone from the collateral kins.”
Mr. Newman said, “Don’t lose your head first. In any case, when they start looking into the matter, we’ll put all the blame on the bodyguard. Make him leave Wiltspoon tomorrow.”
Mrs. Newman responded, “Okay, I got it. Tell me, how should we cling to Mr. Callum?”
“He saved Camryn, so let Camryn repay him with her body and cling to him. The Yorks definitely wouldn’t want a daughter-in-law like her. When the time comes, we can discuss and say that we only want to bail Carrie out. Once Carrie is out, we don’t have to pester Mr. Callum anymore,” Mr. Newman answered.
“That b*tch won’t agree to help. She’s dying for Carrie to be sentenced. Besides, what if the Yorks accept that little b*tch sleeping with Mr. Callum?”
Mr. Newman remarked, “She’s blind… How could Mr. Callum marry her? Coax her tomorrow and stop calling her a b*tch. You gave birth to her, after all. If you call her a b*tch, you’re saying the same about yourself.”
Mrs. Newman pouted her mouth and said, “Whenever I see her, it’s like seeing her father. I can’t help but despise her, and I even want to kill her so she can reunite with him. I shouldn’t have been soft back then and should’ve just killed her. She was only two years old at that time, and it would’ve been easy to do so.”
“I told you not to say things like that anymore. She’s still my brother’s only child, and she’s a blind girl, so it doesn’t affect us. Once Carrie is out, we’ll marry her off to someone else anyhow. Everything will be over then.”
