Chapter 4672
Carrie would die of starvation without work. She had to put aside her dignity to survive. Major corporations were out of the question since Carrie did not have work experience. It was not as if she could, unless she wanted to be discovered anyway. In the end, she took a job as a waitress at the second-floor restaurant of a hotel. She dropped her attitude and kept her head down, only commuting between work and her rental place. She got along well with her colleagues. No one would ever guess that she was once an heiress to the Newmans. When Trenton showed up at the restaurant with Lana, Carrie could not reveal herself to him despite the urge to. She feared that Camryn would find out if she did. The resentment Carrie held for Camryn and Serenity faded over the past six years. Maybe she wised up with age after everything she had been through. She reflected on whether it was Camryn’s and Serenity’s fault that she had ended up this way. No, the blame was hers to keep. Back

With diners stepping into the restaurant, the server went to attend to them. Ree took one last look at the room booked by Trenton. She went to greet the other customers. It did not take long for Trenton’s order to be ready. Ree was quick to take the food to Trenton. She would steal a few glances at Trenton when she brought a plate in. However, Trenton only had eyes for Lana. He barely paid attention to her. Without another word, Ree put the food down and walked out. Once Ree gave them privacy after serving the food, Lana said to Trenton, “The waitress who brought the food kept staring at you. She didn’t say anything, though. “Talk about strange.” Trenton responded with an inflated ego, “Oh, I guess I’m too hot to handle. I bet she has never seen a man as good-looking as me.” Lana chuckled. It was true that Trenton was blessed in the looks department. He was a real head-turner whenever he was out and about. The server seemed to be in her thirties, so Lana doubted

Otherwise, why would she treasure a bouquet he gifted her?“If you like it, I can give you flowers every day.”Trenton walked alongside Lana.She smiled and said, “There’s no need to do that. I’m not your girlfriend anyway. What if your future girlfriend gets jealous when she finds out?”Trenton wanted to blurt that he liked her.However, he swallowed his words as she was focused on the path ahead and simply smiled. Lana did not look at him because she was flustered. She kept her gaze straight after saying those words and pretended to be focused on walking. Actually, she was just trying to hide her panic.She was slightly disappointed when Trenton did not reply to her.It seemed like he truly treated her as a friend and a coursemate. He most likely did not have thoughts of taking their relationship further.Lana did not mind. They still had a lot of time. She would confess and pursue him after she gathered more courage.As her best friend had said, she had to give it a try s

“Your sister is pretty open-minded,” said Lana. She dared not say Camryn could have been unconcerned about Trenton’s marriage at all. After thinking about it, she decided Camryn was not that kind of person. Perhaps Camryn was not as worried yet because Trenton was still young. Her words made sense.There was no use being hasty when the timing was not right.One’s destined partner could knock on the door when least expected. Camryn’s suggestion was to simply go with the flow. “My sister is open-minded, but she had said I should pursue someone I’m attracted to if I ever meet one. She also told me to take that girl to meet her so that she could judge her character for me.”Trenton gazed at Lana deeply.“Have you met anyone you find attractive?” Lana asked. Trenton turned away and continued walking. When someone was about to bump into Lana, he immediately pulled her aside and scolded the stranger, “Watch where you’re going. You almost hit someone.”That person quickly apol

Lana’s parents had made things clear. They only decided to have another child after confirming they could afford it. They would not sacrifice her quality of life for their son. They also said they would save up enough money for him to study, buy a house and car, and for his marriage.Although Lana had a brother, she did not have any extra burden. He was their parents’ responsibility, not hers. If their parents were to pass away, her brother would be her only family left. She would still have a family to return to even after getting married. Since Lana’s parents had everything planned for their son, she did not have to look after him. She could keep her entire salary and did not have conflicting interests with her brother. They had a close relationship. She had grown to love him more as the years passed. Several men had rejected her upon hearing that she had a brother who was much younger than she was. They were worried she would have to raise him in the future. Lana did no

“Did you wait outside for a long time?” Lana asked Trenton. “No. I had just been there for a few minutes before bumping into Mr. Stone. He told me to wait inside because the weather was hot, but I turned him down because I thought you were getting off work soon.“I didn’t expect him to call his secretary to get you to come out just so I didn’t have to wait long.”Trenton added, “The Stones and Yorks are relatives now. Mr. Stone is nice to me because Serenity is his cousin, and my sister is Serenity’s friend and sister-in-law.”Lana knew about how the families were connected. In the past, she was unaware that Trenton was the son of a wealthy family. He would take on part-time jobs whenever he did not have classes, just like any ordinary person. He accepted any work that offered him money.Many people thought his family was struggling financially. Some girls liked his looks, but they could not accept his financial situation. Just like everyone else, Lana had also thought Trento
