Chapter 643: Chapter 643: Camila Walker sends her Peaceful Fruit
Seeing her completely unguarded expression, Camila Walker couldn’t help but turn her head to look at her, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll throw your stuff into the river again as you just sit here?”
Upon hearing that, Emily Walker turned her head and smiled lightly, “From the company to home, we won’t pass by the river!”
She knew that although Camila Walker no longer harbored hostility toward her, it didn’t necessarily mean she liked her.
Camila Walker gave her a cold glance, then started the car and drove towards the Walker family’s courtyard house.
Over half an hour later, the car arrived at Walker Manor. As soon as Emily got out of the car, she saw the sparkling courtyard, filled with many colorful lights that flickered on and off, dazzlingly bright.
“These are prepared for Christmas tomorrow. We celebrate it together every year, and this year there’s an extra person,” Seeing her being mesmerized, Camila got out of the car, her indifferent voice chimed in, and then went straight inside the living room.
Hearing the engine’s sound, Angela Reid and a maid walked out of the living room, their faces breaking into joyful smiles upon seeing the two.
“You’re back, come in quickly, it’s cold outside.”
Emily came to her senses and noticed snowflakes fluttering down from the sky enveloped in night.
Everyone entered the house, and in the living room, Graham Berkeley was personally tying gifts and a big star to the Christmas tree.
“Emily’s here!” After hanging the last star, Graham stopped his work.
Looking at the twinkling Christmas tree, he couldn’t help but show a heartfelt smile.
Decorating the Christmas tree for their children and hanging various colorful gifts was a father’s persistence and enjoyment.
At dinner, Graham gave each servant a red envelope and a peaceful fruit. Then he had them leave the room.
As dinner progressed, only the immediate family was left in the dining room, enjoying their meal together.
After dinner, Camila went upstairs and came back down with a small box, taking out a beautifully wrapped apple from it, “Dad, this is for you!”
She held out the apple, a genuine smile on her face as she looked at Graham on the sofa. To be honest, this was the first time Emily had ever seen Camila genuinely smile.
“Mom, this is for you!” Then, she gave one to Angela Reid as well.
Lastly, her gaze fell on Emily.
As their eyes met, Emily clearly sensed that Camila’s smile faded as she turned to face her.
“This is for you!”
Upon hearing this, Emily looked up and before she had time to react, something was tossed onto her lap.
Upon closer inspection, she realized it was an apple identical to the ones given to her parents.
Is this…
Emily looked up at Camila, who had already turned her face, ignoring her.
Is this her Christmas gift for me?
“Thank… Thank you.” As a courtesy, Emily could only utter these two words.
“No need to thank me. There was just an extra one when I was distributing them to the servants, so I thought I might as well give it to you.” Camila’s expression remained indifferent, not even sparing Emily a glance.
But from Emily’s perspective, it seemed as if…
She wanted to be friends with her but couldn’t let go of her pride?
Was that the case? Or was she just overthinking it?
Following that, Graham also took out two red envelopes.
“Tomorrow is Christmas, you two can use this to buy some more clothes to wear. The weather’s getting colder and colder.” Graham handed one each to Emily and Camila.
“Thanks, Dad!” Camila unceremoniously took the red envelope, as she had grown accustomed to it over the years.
