Chapter 1423
In the meantime, after leaving the hospital, Callum did not send Camryn back to Spring Blossoms but went to Willspoon Hotel instead. He said, “I accompanied you to the hospital, so lunch is your treat.”
Camryn, who was thinking about something else, was instantly speechless.
He always made her buy him meals!
She looked at Callum and asked calmly, “Where do you want to eat?”
“I think…”
His cell phone rang before he could finish, interrupting what he was about to say.
There was no caller ID saved to the number, but he recognized it. It was from Mr. Newman.
“Your uncle is calling,” Callum said to Camryn.
Camryn frowned and then said calmly, “I think he’s anxious and wants you to help.”
Mr. Newman was indeed feeling uneasy. He was also fearful.
His wife and he were tied to the same boat. Although most of it was obviously his wife’s doing, he could not escape being scrutinized and investigated. He would not be able to get away if the police investigated deeper.
His wife and he worked so hard to get to where they were today, but they had a feeling that everything would go down the drain. How could he not be anxious?
In his heart, he resented his wife for not listening to him.
He advised his wife countless times not to fight with Zachary and Serenity. Even if they had billions worth in assets, they were no match against the York family.
If Carrie was sentenced to jail, then so be it. As long as they were still alive and free, they could arrange a good path for their daughter when she was released from prison.
She thought she did not have to fear Zachary with her forces…
However, as strong as a person was, there would always be someone stronger. Zachary happened to be more powerful than she was.
Mr. Newman knew that his wife would be sentenced severely after getting captured. His wife was involved in the underworld. Not only did she commit a heinous crime, but she also harmed someone.
Mr. Newman could not see his wife now.
Only her lawyer had the right to see her whereas he could not visit her until she was sentenced.
He felt like the Newman family collapsed overnight.
Mr. Newman was completely overwhelmed.
“I’m driving now, so it’s not convenient for me to answer the phone. You can answer it for me.”
