Chapter 1383
Callum looked into Camryn’s eyes for a while before uttering, “Serenity is right. You should get your eyes fixed first if you want to
collect evidence. I’ll keep the voice recorder safe for you here so it doesn’t fall into their hands. It’ll only put you in danger.”
“Thank you, Mr. Callum.”
Camryn never thought about asking for the voice recorder back.
As Callum put it, Camryn might lose her life over the voice recorder.
“I’m going to play along if they plan on using me to save that sister of yours. Do you have a problem with that?”
Camryn looked confused.
“What do you mean by ‘play along”?”
“Your stepfather wants me to marry you. They must think I’m not for it and will use it as leverage to get your sister out of jail.
Well, they have another thing coming.”
Callum was a proud member of the York family. He was not one to be messed with.
Mr. and Mrs. Newman must be desperate to try anything.
They adored Carrie so much.
“What do you think about me marrying you?”
“Huh?” Camryn was stunned.
“It’s hard to collect evidence on your own. I can get easy access in and out of the Newmans’ residence when I marry you and
become part of the family. That way, I can help you gather proof. One day, they will be brought to justice, and I can avenge my
father-in-law.”
Callum believed his father-in-law must be rolling over in his grave since the latter’s brother slept with his wife and abused his
daughter. One night, his father-in-law would come back to haunt Mr. Newman.
As the son-in-law, Callum had the duty to help in avenging his father-in-law.

Camryn was speechless.
She was at a total loss for words.
Meanwhile, it was soon closing time at Liberty’s diner at around ten o’clock; time to tidy up.
After the last batch of customers left, Liberty and her two employees cleaned up the place.
While she was busy, her clingy ex-husband appeared on site.
Hank was with Jessica as always.
With their wedding date around the corner, Hank and Jessica showed up together unless Hank was out driving an Uber.
“Liberty, where’s Sonny?”
It was the first thing Hank asked when he stepped into the diner.
“I want to take Sonny to try out a suit,” Hank stated his intention.
Liberty stopped wiping down the stove and gazed up at her ex-husband. She faintly said, “Didn’t I tell you Sonny’s size? You can
rent him a tux or get him a new one with the size.”
There was no need to take Sonny with him.
She gave Jessica a few glances.
Jessica had no qualms jumping in, “Sonny should pick what he likes, Liberty. Our taste as adults might be different than the
kids’.”
She added, “Hank and I are just taking Sonny out to try on some clothes. We’ll deliver Sonny right back to you after that. You’re
cleaning up. We’ll be back around the same time you’re done.
“It doesn’t take long. The formal wear rental place isn’t far from here. It’s a ten-minute drive.” Echoing his wife’s thoughts, Hank
said, “Are you trying to take time away from me and Sonny, Liberty? Sonny is my son too. We had an agreement that I can meet
with Sonny whenever I want.

“I’m not saying I won’t bring Sonny back. He’s only going to pick an outfit as the flower boy. Didn’t you talk to Sonny about it? I’ll
talk to him if you haven’t. There’s nothing I can’t share with my son. “You’re refusing visitation if you’re not letting me take Sonny
for a fitting. It’s a violation of the agreement. I can go to court and fight for Sonny’s custody.”
Even though there was a possibility Hank could not win, he was glad so long as he could annoy and drive Liberty crazy.
