Chapter 312


    Chapter 312 She Has No Luck Tonight


    Old Man Nn seemed to be taken aback when he saw his own tearnding on the photo. Hastily, he


    wiped it away with the back of his hand as though he was worried that it might dirty the photo. The


    corners of Cam’s lips twitched twice upon seeing his reaction. Oh, my lord. While her son’s gift


    managed to make Old Man Nnugh, hers turned out to be a tear-jerker.


    Because of that, she gave Ss an apprehensive stare and received a soothing look from him. It was


    because he knew his grandfather was shedding tears because he was touched. When his grandfather


    was a young man, he refused to have a picture taken together with his wife, let alone wearing a matching


    outfit because he wasn’t used to expressing his feelings readily. Ss reckoned it must be one of his


    grandfather’s biggest regrets in life. Most people tended to postpone some of the most important things


    in life thinking that they still had a long way ahead to go, but more often than not, the person whom they


    assumed would stay by their side forever would be gone at the most unexpected time. By the time they


    wanted to do something to make it up to them, it was all but toote. Old Man Nn was very touched


    because through Cam’s photo, his wish which he previously thought could not be fulfilled was realized.


    In fact, he was really surprised by her gift because he had no clue that this was the reason Cam had


    asked for his wife’s photo. At the same time, he reckoned that she must have designed his wife’s dress


    in the photo herself as well because otherwise, the photo wouldn’t have turned out to look so great.


    Every time he spent time with Cam and his son, he would always feel warmth in his heart. In fact, he


    really valued a gift not by how much it was worth, but how much effort one had put in to prepare it. It took


    Old Man Nn a long time to recover from the emotional wave. He looked up at Cam with some


    complicated emotion surging beneath his pupils but he managed to stop it from oveing him just in


    time. “Doctor Brooklyn, thank you very much for your gift because I like it a lot. I bet it must have taken


    you much effort to prepare it, am I right?” Doctor Brooklyn? Ss raised his brows slightly as it seemed


    like his grandfather was on the same page as him. Cam felt relieved as though a heavy load was lifted


    from her heart upon knowing that her gift was to Old Man Nn’s liking. “It’s not a big deal as long as


    you like it!”


    At that moment, all the other guests were wearing various expressions on their faces


    in response to the scene. They had no choice but to admit that Cam and her son’s gifts had indeed


    captured Old Man Nn’s heart despite not having much mary value. Narrowing her eyes, Nicole


    approached Aleena discreetly and said to her in a voice which was only audible to them, “Did you tell the


    man about this?” Aleena answered in her frustration, “I did and I was just wondering why he wasn’t


    here.” After some contemtion, Nicole pointed out, “How is he supposed toe in without an


    invitation card?” Aleena looked enlightened at once. “You’re right! Let me go outside and check if there’s


    any sign of him.” Just as she was about to leave the room, she was stopped by Nicole, who reminded


    her, “Hold on. Why do you want him here since no drama is happening?” Surprised by what Nicole said,


    Aleena asked her in an undertone, “What n do you have in mind then?”


    Nicole stared at her quizzically. “Didn’t youe up with a n before this?” After a long beat, Aleena


    exined, “I thought all I had to do was make sure that he sees her here.” Nicolemented ominously,


    “That’s not enough to cause her any problem. Not only is she Old Man Nn’s doctor, but she is also the


    designer of the suit he is wearing now so it’s more than reasonable for her to be here.”


    Aleena knitted her brows together and asked, “In that case, what should I do now?” Nicole shrugged and


    said with a look of resignation, “Is there anything else you can do now? Are you going to make her drunk


    and lure both her and the man into a room? That’s not going to work because she has really high alcohol


    tolerance. I think there’s nothing much you can do today. We can only wait for our next opportunity.”


    Despite that, Aleena was secretly brewing a n in her mind, thinking that she shouldn’t let such a good


    chance slip. Did Nicole just say that Cam had a high alcohol tolerance? Would it be the same if her


    drink was drugged? She was lucky to end up unscathed in the cocktail party previously, but Aleena


    would make sure she had no such luck tonight. Even if she failed to bring her down tonight, her n


    would be considered a sess if it managed to put her in enough embarrassment in the presence of the


    other guests. With that thought in mind, the corners of Aleena’s lips curled upward into a confident smirk.


    Judging from her expression, Nicole was sure her words had worked. Lara, who had been keeping mum,


    saw the need to make her presence known.


    “Doctor Brooklyn, thank you so much for your gift. Seems like you’re the one who understands him the


    best.” Politely Cam nodded at her and said, “Aunt Lara, you’re wee. When I was here to take


    Master Merlin’s measurements for the suit, he told me that he had never worn a matching outfit with his


    wife before. So, I was inspired to create this photo, and Mr. Nn helped me by getting the picture of his


    grandmother. Everything was just a coincidence!”N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.
