Chapter 1010
The Ceo’s Convict Wife
âYeah. Sheâs going to stay abroad for a while. Itâs going to be good for her, and also for me,â he murmured, looking at Lillianâs face. âFrom now on, I only have you.â
As he spoke, he held her in his arms, smelling the faint fragrance on her.
His motherâs going abroad meant that she finally admitted her failure, giving up fighting over the rights.
of White Maple Group with him.
However, this also meant that there was an insurmountable gap between him and his mother.
The original weak relationship between the mother and child was completely gone.
Lillian felt Callumâs body trembling slightly, and every breath he took seemed to come with a nasal sound.
âIs he going to cry?â she wondered in her heart.
Although he seemed to be indifferent, she was still his mother. However, he was practically cutting ties with her right now.
Lillian raised her hands and hugged Callum. âCallum, you wonât have only me. You still have our children. In the future, I will give birth to many children. When your mother sees us living a happy life later on, she may find that she was wrong.â
âOkay,â Callum replied responded with a muffled tone, and his head was still buried in her shoulder.
âAlso⦠If you cry, I wonât laugh at you,â Lillian added.
âWhat? Do you think Iâm still a three-year-old child?â His voice was hoarse, and Lillian gradually felt moistness on her shoulders.
When Lillian returned to Strico, Rosalie was a little surprised. âWhy did you come back so soon? Arenât you going to stay at Sloummont for a little longer?â
âIâm coming back to deliver my child. Besides, I created my obstetric record in Strico. Iâm also more used to the food here,â Lillian replied. âAlthough Sloummontâs food is also very delicious, itâll be more relaxing and easier to return to the place Iâm familiar with. By the way, are you free tonight? Callum and I would like to invite you to dinner with Jonathan and the children. Amelia is busy with her business at night. We can find a morning to meet up with her.â
âOkay,â Rosalie agreed.
That night, Rosalie took her three children and Karina to the banquet.
After all, Zaid was practically attached to Karina. If Rosalie didnât bring Karina along, Zaid wouldnât come with her at all.
After seeing the three little ones, Lillian naturally felt envious! Others had to be pregnant three times before they had three children. However, her good friends had three of them at once, not to mention that all of them were so cute!
At this moment, Lillian became like a strange woman, touching and kissing the three children. As a result, Zaid refused her advances directly. Although Guillermo didnât refuse, his expression was obviously reluctant. Only Jennifer had fun with Lillian, which comforted her a little bit.
âYou can kiss your baby after he or sheâs born.â Rosalie joked.
âThereâs still four months!â Lillian muttered.
âFour months will pass quickly.â
The two women were chatting while warmly helping the four children to stack up the plate. Meanwhile, the two men looked at each other. Callum took the lead in toasting, âThank you for saving Lillian.â
If Jonathan hadnât saved Lillian from Madelineâs kidnapping, perhaps Callum wouldnât be able to see her at all, let alone expect their child to be born. Every time he thought of this, he would be scared.
âI saved her because she once saved Rosie,â Jonathan said.
If Lillian was only Rosalieâs best friend, Jonathan wouldnât have even batted an eyelash even if she died in front of him.
âAnyway, thank you, I owe you a favor. If you have something that youâd need help with in the future, I will do my best to help you,â Callum replied. It was an exceptional favor from someone like him.
âCheers.â
After saying that, he raised the glass of wine in his hand and drank it all.
Seeing this, Jonathan also raised the glass of wine in his hand and gulped it down.
âIf you really think that you owe me a favor, why donât you stop Lillian from bringing Rosie to those male stripping shows?â Jonathan asked.
However, he lowered his voice when he said that and didnât let the two women and four children hear it.
After all, this was something embarrassing to talk about.
Callumâs face darkened when he heard that. He had a headache for Lillianâs hobby, but he couldnât stop her from watching them.
As long as the woman showed her gentler side, shooting him a pitiful and cager look, he would surrender completely.
Callum would even help buy tickets, take her to meet her idol, and then ask for autographs and even posters.
It was especially the case recently. She seemed to be obsessed with another male group. Callum thought that she would perhaps ask for signed posters, and photos, even to meet those idols in the future.
At this moment, Callum could only say, âIâ¦Iâll try my best.
âTry?â Jonathan raised his eyebrows slightly.
âSheâs pregnant now. A pregnant woman needs to keep her body and mind happy. Letâs wait until she gives birth to talk about that.â Callum was a little embarrassed.
âAfter the baby is born, will you really be able to control her?â Jonathan questioned.
âI think so.â However, when Callum said that, he could clearly feel the guilt in his voice.
âOkay, I hope we wonât meet each other again in such a venue, having to bring our wives home,â
Jonathan said.
The darkened expression on Callumâs face clearly showed that he was reminded of his previous unpleasant experiences.
âI donât think itâll happen again,â Callum replied.
Now he only hoped that Lillianâs enthusiasm for those idols would lessen after their baby was born.
Otherwise, he couldnât help but shiver when he imagined how she would bring the children along with her when fangirling.
It was terrible to think about it!
After the banquet, Lillian and Callum returned to the car. âWhat did you talk about with Jonathan when you were having dinner?â asked Lillian. âYou donât look happy.â
âNothing. We were just chit-chatting,â answered Callum.
âWell, looking at Rosieâs three children, I really wish our children could be born and grow up soon. This way, I can do a lot of things with them,â Lillian said emotionally.
âWhat do you want to do with our child?â Callum asked casually.
