"Mom…"
Cammy's face drained of color as she watched her mother approaching—with Duncan right beside her.
But she wasn't the only one caught off guard. Monica came to an abrupt stop, her gaze narrowing in surprise as Greg casually draped an arm around Cammy's shoulders and pulled her close.
Cammy's body tensed. She had no idea how to react or what to do next.
Greg, however, was already steps ahead. He had done his homework. He knew exactly who Monica was and had anticipated this moment. Without hesitation, he took a few confident strides toward them, gently guiding Cammy along with him.
Closing the gap, he extended his hand toward Monica with a composed, almost charming smile.
"What a lovely day to finally meet you. I'm Gregory Cross—Cammy's boyfriend."
