Chapter 1211: Chapter 1238: Do You Like It? (4)

Compared to Windsor Myres, Jacob Quinn and the others preferred Mia Ginger, so they were naturally pleased to see things work out for them. They laughed and raised their glasses, saying, "Cheers, congratulations on your new marriage, your housewarming, a long and happy life together, and may you have children soon, hahaha!"

The teasing and jokes were apparent in their words, and Mia quickly blushed.

With the crowd, Camden River noticed her discomfort, but couldn’t speak up for her.

If he did, the people around would just laugh even more, and he couldn’t imagine how embarrassed she would get.

Just imagining the potential situation, Camden couldn’t help but curve his lips into a subtle smile, without realizing it himself, feeling unexpectedly relaxed and happy amidst his classmates and friends gathered around.

This feeling was something Windsor Myres couldn’t give him.

Windsor was independent and had high standards. She had little patience for things or people she didn’t care about. In past gatherings with classmates, she mostly stuck to him, embracing, kissing, joking, and treating others as if they were invisible.

He couldn’t do that; people are social beings. Despite his claim to independence, he actually felt a bit uncomfortable.

What’s more, Windsor’s words and actions easily made her the focus of others’ attention and discussion. Perhaps out of habit, or because of her long-established aura, she found it hard to be well-liked in a group.

Mia was different. She was gentle and sat beside him with a shy smile, making him feel comfortable overall.

Comparison can be terrifying.

After having felt that previous discomfort, the current feeling of ease seemed all the more precious.

Camden naturally resembled his father; the family atmosphere and lessons from his parents gave him quite a strong sense of male dominance and control. In relationships, being admired, relied upon, and trusted allowed him to thrive. Otherwise, even if there was sweetness, frustration would always find cracks to appear.

Camden hadn’t noticed that he actually got used to Mia’s presence very quickly.

How to put it?

It was as if all of this was simply how it was meant to be.

After going around and around, he gradually restored the marital life he had in mind, replicating a harmonious family like that of his parents.

A girl like Mia surprisingly suited him so well.

She was like the opposite of Windsor Myres. The more tired he felt because of Windsor, the more he could see Mia’s rare and precious highlights, such as her gentleness and kindness, which should have been quite ordinary, but having experienced Windsor Myres first, it wasn’t the case.

If it weren’t for Windsor Myres, he and Mia might never have crossed paths at all.

Life is always mysterious.

At the moment, Camden was helping pour drinks for everyone, and the playful Mina Lee was already calling to play Truth or Dare.

Thinking of this—

Camden suddenly recalled the last time everyone played Truth or Dare.

Mia made him drink a sip of porridge.

Camden’s handsome brows raised mildly, nodding in agreement with Mina’s proposal.

"Okay, eight people," Mina looked around and directly said, "Four people in a group for Rock-Paper-Scissors, then pair off for a final face-off, how about it?"

"Whatever."

"Sure."

"I have no objections."

Everyone agreed, and Mia Ginger glanced around, noticing that apart from Camden River and Mia Ginger herself, everyone was visibly eager to join in.

This group was clearly planning to matchmake and tease, to encourage their feelings to warm up.

This unspoken, enthusiastic matchmaking feeling surprisingly made one feel united, something that hadn’t been felt in a while.
