NovelEnglishChapter 800:
still, the high-society families in Isonridge were filled with tension and conflict. If Carrie were to join such a world
through marriage, a quieter, more harmonious family—like Daxton’s—would be a better choice.
If Daxton were open to it, they could live in the Morrison family residence after their wedding.
But Kyson was different. He was set to lead the Webster family, a distinguished family with significant
challenges, including a formidable mother-in-law. Marrying into that family would mean Carrie would have to
navigate complex relationships, which would be far from simple.
As they chatted, Carrie's eyes wandered around the hall, searching for Kristopher, but he was nowhere to be
seen.
Was he still outside in the backyard?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe thought of how she had bitten his lip made her cringe. Of all places, why did she have to bite somewhere so
obvious?
If he walked in with a swollen lip, it would set off a chain reaction of whispers. And knowing Aliza, she'd be the
first to pin the blon her, probably using it as an excuse to stir up trouble.
That thought made her scan the crowd once more, but Aliza was missing too.
Just then, Camille appeared beside her.
“Carrie! Where did you disappear to? | finally got a moment to cfind you.”
Carrie chuckled.
“I should be asking you that. | was planning to introduce you to everyone.”
Camille waved a hand, brushing it off.
“Oh, please. I'm just a nobody from a small town. | don’t want to bring down your reputation.”
Carrie playfully lifted a hand as if to smack her.
“Oh, stop it! How could you bring down my reputation? If anything, you were born the eldest daughter of the
Nixon family, while | was just skid with a cunning dad and no mother. If we're talking about reaching too
high, that would be me!”
Camille threw up her hands in surrender.
“Okay, okay, | take it back! My mindset is all wrong. I think getting older year by year with nothing to show for it
is affecting my confidence...”
Carrie tapped her forehead lightly.
“Where do you even pick up all these absurd phrases? You're spouting them one after another like you're
performing a comedy routine.”
Camille sobered up and glanced around before pulling Carrie aside. Lowering her voice, she said, “I have no idea

say goodbye. People were saying it was rude of him!”
The news of Kristopher getting criticized put a smug smile on Camille's face. Back in Orkset, he walked around
like he owned the place, but here in Isonridge? He was just another face in the crowd. She crossed her arms,
raising an eyebrow.
