Chapter 181
The event of the summer fashion show concluded successfully. Finally, Edith got to witness this beautiful moment in person. Everyone cheered her as she delivered her closing remarks on stage. She looked at her family, who cheered her most enthusiastically, and then at the two couples who also applauded enthusiastically. She walked down the stage, lifting her dress, and approached her fiancé, who was about to embrace her.
She couldn’t contain her joy any longer. She ran to her fiancé and let him lift her up openly. She wanted to savor this moment a little longer, as she would have to wander around outside the venue to inspect the exhibition of her various clothing collections for sale to the public.
“I’m so proud of you, Edith. You’ve managed to put together such a beautiful event p>
“This is all thanks to your support throughout. I can’t wait to show you around the exhibition p>
Callum let his fiancée stand still for a moment, then took her hand tightly. “Then, let’s go there now p>
Eliana and Erdin also held hands with their parents. The little family now walked out of the venue, exploring an exhibition filled with visitors curious about the various clothing collections launched since the boutique’s inception.
Edith originally planned to go on a trip with her little family, but now she’s being harassed by reporters curious about her career path to success. This is because she won a competition last week, and her name has become even more well-known.
Of course, Edith didn’t want to drag out the interview, as she still cared more about her family. Just as she was about to end the interview, Callum immediately stopped her by shaking his head.
“Callum, I p>
“It’s okay, don’t mind me. Just finish the interview p>
Edith immediately embraced her fiancé’s hand affectionately. “You should be interviewed too, because you’re the one who made me this successful p>
Callum looked at the reporters interviewing his fiancée with a sweet smile. He held his twins’ hands tightly as he answered each reporter’s questions about his love life.
Finally free from the reporters, they joined two other couples who were also visiting the exhibition area. Edith was walking with the women and her twins, while Callum was walking with the men.
The men walked behind the women, a good distance apart. Callum looked at his fiancée wearily, knowing she was overexerting herself to avoid worrying him.
“Callum, what’s wrong with you?” James asked softly.
“Actually, I’m worried about Edith’s condition right now. She hasn’t been feeling well since last night p>
Patrick let out a weak breath. “Renata told me earlier that Edith wasn’t feeling well today p>
His footsteps stopped abruptly when he heard an unexpected report from Patrick. “What did you say p>
“Actually, Renata asked me to keep this a secret from you. But I couldn’t just sit there and listen to Edith almost collapse from exhaustion earlier p>
Callum immediately looked at his fiancée, who was still smiling as she chatted with the women. “I have to take her home now p>
James grabbed Callum’s hand quickly. “No way. If you take her home now, she’ll be sad because she hasn’t been out with her friends in a while p>
“James is right. You better stop showing your possessive attitude now p>
“But, what if something happens to her again? I’m afraid she’ll faint this time because she’s not eating enough too p>
“You definitely have to be ready to save her. But that was impossible. Edith would remain steadfast p>
Edith was still enthusiastically chatting with the women while holding her twins’ hands. Although she felt increasingly weak, she hoped her actions wouldn’t arouse Callum’s suspicions. She already knew his extremely possessive nature wouldn’t allow her to linger in a place like this.
“Edith, I’m so happy to see you’ve become famous thanks to that competition,” Arabella said, looking at her friend with a beaming smile.
Edith smiled shyly as she looked at her two friends, who were grinning broadly at her. “And I’m so famous because of Callum. If he hadn’t been my VIP client back then, I definitely wouldn’t be as successful as I am now p>
Renata lowered her head. “By the way, Callum’s actually been worried about you lately. He’s been calling me a lot just to check on you p>
Her lips pouted. “I knew he would do something like that, since I haven’t been paying him any attention lately p>
Arabella laughed awkwardly, patting her friend’s shoulder. “Callum’s acting like this because he loves you p>
“I suggest you get some rest early today since you haven’t had a chance to sleep lately.” Renata’s eyes fell on the innocent twins. “Is that right, Erdin, Eliana p>
Erdin and Eliana nodded simultaneously.
Edith looked at her twins, who still looked innocent, as if they didn’t mind. “Okay, I want to have some fun with my kids before bed too p>
“Mom, I don’t want to play with you today,” Erdin said suddenly, surprising Edith.
“Why p>
“Because you haven’t been sleeping lately. We don’t want to disturb you yet p>
Renata and Arabella laughed awkwardly in unison seeing these twins who cared so much about their mother.
Finally, Edith was able to rest peacefully at home. Since her twins had temporarily banned her from playing with them, her only job was to stay with them in their rooms until they fell asleep.
Edith now returned to her room with Callum. She admitted that her body was very weak due to lack of rest and that she had pushed herself too hard today, waking up early to get everything ready at the venue.
That night, she couldn’t even put on her night cream before bed. As she tried to walk to bed, her vision became increasingly blurry, nearly causing her to collapse to the floor.
“Edith!” Callum shouted, holding his fiancée’s body as she nearly fell.
Edith responded with a relaxed smile. “I’m fine p>
“You’re actually sick!” Callum immediately held this supple body for a moment then laid her on the bed.
“I just need a rest p>
“No. You’re really sick. I’ll call Erick now p>
