Chapter 59 I’m Not Canceling The Engagement
The search results soon popped up on the screen. Eric Fletcher, twenty years old, from Steerfall, was currently studying at ESMOD International Fashion Design Institute, one of the best design institutes in the world.
At eighteen, he founded the international fashion brand Noir Éclat, and now, he was a household name. Anything he designed would be sold out during pre–orders.
Cameron clicked on the official website for Noir Éclat and saw the obsidian earring Bradley had given her listed for $19,999.
‘This is the ‘little thing‘ Bradley talked about? What kind of gift do I need to give him to make it even? she thought.
She rubbed her temples and scrolled through her phone. Suddenly, she saw something and froze.
‘Fashion design competition? The winner gets 300 thousand dollars, her mind screamed.
Cameron raised her eyebrows, thinking with a smile, ‘Perfect. I’ve been trying to figure out how to make some money before the SATs, and now I’ve got an idea.
Just then, someone shouted, “Wow, that’s Amelia. She’s so beautiful.”
Another person echoed, “True, she is stunning. No one in this school comes close to her appearance.”
Someone else sighed, “Look at her long and smooth legs. They’re just amazing.”
Hearing the chatter, Cameron glanced up and saw Amelia and Skyler standing in the doorway.
Amelia said to the student sitting in the front row politely, “Excuse me, could you please tell Cameron I’d like to talk to him?”
The guy shouted across the room, “Cameron, tour fiancée Amelia wants to talk to you.”
Other students chuckled, clearly enjoying the gossip.
Amelia frowned slightly at their reaction.
Cameron sat still for a few seconds. Then she stood up and walked out of the classroom.
When Amelia saw Cameron, she immediately took a few steps back and stood near the railing.
Skyler followed suit, standing beside her. She rolled her eyes and thought inwardly, ‘Seems like the campus queen’s charm is wearing off. Been waiting days, and I still haven’t gotten the photos of Elijah.”
Cameron stood at the door with her hands in her pockets and a cold expression. She looked at Amelia and asked, “What’s up?”
Amelia was taken aback by the coldness in Cameron’s tone.
Her attitude had completely changed. Cameron was once warm and eager in front of Amelia, but now, she was as cold as ice.
Skyler sneered, “Cameron, drop your act. Playing hard to get is fine, but there’s a limit.”
Cameron didn’t even spare her a glance.
Amelia noticed Cameron staring at her and could see he was starting to get impatient. She got to the point and said, ” Cameron, didn’t you say you were going to cancel the engagement with me? Why haven’t you come yet?*
Over the weekend, Amelia told her parents that Cameron would come by to break off the engagement soon. They were all thrilled. The Chapman family had been wanting to cut ties with the Wallace family for ages.
But as the weekend passed, and Cameron didn’t show up, Amelia had to ask for an answer as soon as she returned to school.
Amelia ignored Skyler but still watched Cameron, waiting for an explanation.
Cameron crossed her arms and leaned against the wall, looking totally uninterested. “I’m not canceling the engagement.” Amelia’s eyes widened in shock.
Skyler pumped her fist in the air. “I knew it, Amy. He was just playing hard to get. Didn’t he compete with Xander the other day? He’s been all over the school’s radar, and he’s doing this to grab your attention.”
Cameron gave Skyler a deadpan look. “You are really smart.”
Skyler puffed out her chest and smugly lifted her chin.
Amelia’s expression turned grim as she said, “Successfully unlocked! engagement? You know I don’t agree with it.
Dragging this on is pointless.”
A lot of students passed by and shot them with curious eyes, but Amelia didn’t care.
She even hoped that some of them would spread the word that she wanted to cancel the engagement and didn’t like Cameron, hoping the right person would hear it.
