The Miracle of You Chapter 30
As Camille entered the shop, the air was immediately filled with the delicate and soothing scent of flowers. The place was bathed in a soft, warm glow from the sunlight filtering through the windows.Wooden shelves adorned with potted plants lined the walls. The countertops displayed an array of bouquets and arrangements, each a carefully curated mix of colors and textures.The sound of trickling water echoed softly from a corner where a quaint tabletop fountain sat. There was also a hand-painted chalkboard on the wall that listed the daily specials.Overall, the interior was homey and quite comfortable.The clerk, a pretty young girl with honey-brown eyes, greeted Camille with a smile.“Hello, ma’am,” she said politely. “What kind of flowers would you like?”Camille smiled back. “I’d like to take a look around first if you don’t mind.”“Of course not. Feel free to do so.”‘Where is he?’ she thought as she went further into the shop.When she rounded the corner to go to the next aisle

They arrived at their old high school within fifteen minutes. The walking distance from the company wasn’t that long, so they decided that it was best to enjoy the scenery instead of taking a cab.Along the way, Camille worried about a few things. Even though she was in disguise and there was no way anyone could possibly recognize her, she still felt a little embarrassed when she noticed people sending her curious glances from time to time.There was no doubt that it was because of the flowers she was holding.‘Why did he have to give me such bright flowers in the first place?’ Camille complained internally.Though she had an inkling why he did.It wasn’t like she didn’t appreciate the gesture. She did, and it warmed her heart.It had been a long time since she was treated like a real woman. It wasn’t like Christian gave her flowers like this that often. In fact, he only ever did on rare occasions whenever he needed something from her, or when he felt the need to use her for situation

Camille stared at him, feeling another surge of conflict in her heart.How was it that he always knew the right words to say?More importantly, how could he say something like that despite his busy lifestyle?“Is that even possible?” she whispered. “Realistically, you can’t always be there for me, Noah. You have such an important career and a bright future ahead of you. I’m just someone from your past, an ordinary woman who’s not of any use to you whatsoever.”Michael frowned. “That’s not true.”‘I haven’t stopped searching for you for years,’ was what he wanted to say.‘You’re the only one who kept me going even when there had been so many times when I just wanted to give up.’‘You’re the woman that I—’Michael’s thoughts stopped right there.She was…The only woman that he had ever loved.And the only one that he would ever love in the future.He knew that he should just say this to her. To make her realize the depth of his feelings for her.But something held him back. Maybe it was

“I am not,” she answered firmly. “You have nothing to worry about, Mr. Callahan. I assure you that I am just having a very bad week.”She tried hard not to let the sarcasm show in her tone.Christian smirked in satisfaction. “That’s good to know, my cute little secretary.”“Don’t call me that,” she snarled before finally storming off towards her room. She was practically fuming.That man was insufferable!But terrifying at the same time, she had to admit.She could never really know what was going on inside of Christian’s crazy mind. He could be psychotic the next moment, and then mischievous the next.But she knew that behind that arrogant, playful demeanor was a cold, calculative man. He was not someone to be trifled with. He was a demon who loved to play with people and make them feel like idiots.She knew that she had to be extra careful now. Christian was bound to find more ammunition to blackmail her with.She really had no idea why he would go through such lengths to keep her,

One week later, it was the beginning of a new season. Everyone in Callahan Group was busy with the upcoming major project, including Camille. Being a diligent worker, Camille liked to stay organized and make sure that things were going in order so far.Since her boss, Christian, was also meticulous, they worked well together.But that was the only harmony that they had. They had good teamwork at the company whenever it was about their career. Otherwise, Christian liked to play around while Camille just wanted to live a peaceful life.Today was one of those days where Camille needed to work overtime. Christian’s schedule was packed for the entire month, so she needed to double-check everything on her list. Things had to be perfectly carried out, otherwise the company’s reputation would be at risk. It was Camille’s job to ensure that her boss’ tasks ran smoothly.As she typed away on her keyboard, her eyes glued to the monitor screen, she failed to hear the sound of Christian’s office d

“You can’t be serious,” Camille blurted out, and she could feel herself bristling at this point. “What are you really planning? Why are you so dead-set on tormenting me? What did I ever do to you?”“Ssshh,” Christian suddenly said, pressing a finger against his lips. “Don’t be so loud. We’re at the lobby now.”He was right.When Camille cast her gaze ahead, she could see several employees staring at them from afar, wondering why they still weren’t exiting the elevator even though the doors were already open.Camille could feel her cheeks flushing from both fury and embarrassment.This jerk!“I am not going there,” she said in a tone of finality as she walked off before the doors could automatically close, not even waiting for Christian to match her pace.“Oh, come on, Miss Parker. Why the hostility?” Christian said lightly, and she suspected that he was dying of laughter on the inside. “L’Art Culinaire is one of the greatest restaurants in the city. I already booked a table there. You

The upscale restaurant was bustling with the lunchtime crowd, the clinking of cutlery and low hum of conversation providing a backdrop to the crisp white tablecloth and shining silverware.The place was pretty fancy, Camille had to admit. She had seen her share of fancy restaurants over the years thanks to Christian’s extravagant tastes, but this one had the best interior she had ever seen.It had a cozy and elegant feel, with gold, dark red, and cream shades used for the color scheme. Large, fancy chandeliers hung from the ceiling, and beautiful, eye-catching paintings adorned the walls.The tables were nicely set, and there was plenty of space between them so the guests wouldn’t feel crowded. There was also a pianist at the small podium playing soft music in the background, the soothing melody making the anxiety in her heart ease a little.In the middle of the restaurant, there was a large, fancy wooden bar where they made various drinks. They also had an impressive collection of wi

Time stopped for Camille the moment Michael McGregor walked through those doors.And he looked more handsome than ever, if that was even possible.He stood at an imposing height of six feet, possessing a commanding presence that seemed to fill the room. Suddenly, he no longer seemed like the mischievous, carefree boy that she knew all those years ago.Gone was the dyed hair, replaced with a shade of light-brown that was impeccably styled, framing a chiseled face that could possibly belong to a cover model. The lighting cast shadows on his sharp cheekbones, complementing his well-defined jawline.He was dressed in a tailored charcoal-gray suit that accentuated his broad shoulders and lean physique. Even from afar, his status was quite prominent, and he seemed to exude an air of timeless elegance.Now Camille felt even more estranged from him, like the gap between their worlds had grown much wider. It occurred to her, at this moment, that this was the first time she had seen him dress a
