Chapter 527

“Alright, I’ll ask Callum to investigate it,” Lillian replied. “How has Amelia been since then? And how is her business going?”

“I called her this morning and she mentioned that the business gradually recovered, and no one came to cause any trouble,” Rosalie replied.

“That’s a relief!” Lillian exclaimed, finally feeling reassured.

After finishing dinner, Lillian drove Rosalie home before going looking for Callum.

“Is your abdomen still hurting?” In the study, Callum set aside the documents he was reading and approached Lillian.

“I’m feeling better today. It doesn’t hurt as much as it did yesterday,” she replied.

He furrowed his brows slightly as he heard that, understanding her pain was lingering even after a day had passed. “How long does the pain usually last?” In the past, he had never thought about whether women experienced pain during their periods. But now, because of her, he began to worry about it.

“Don’t worry. Based on my usual condition, it should stop hurting by tomorrow,” Lillian reassured him.

“If that’s the case, would you like me to rub your stomach for you?” he offered.

After some consideration, Lillian agreed. Speaking of which, Callum’s stomach-rubbing skills were not bad at all.

So, Lillian settled comfortably on the couch.

Seeing her actions, Callum couldn’t resist a chuckle. He reached for the landline phone, asking the servant to prepare a cup of hot cocoa. Then, he joined Lillian on the couch and began to gently massage her belly with his long fingers.

“You’re really skilled at stomach massages. It’s so soothing. If I had known this earlier, I would have had you rub my stomach during my period ages ago,” she remarked. Speaking about her period in front of him, she felt no embarrassment whatsoever.

Callum was a bit speechless. “Only she would instruct him to do such a thing.” He contemplated before asking, “Did you meet with Rosalie today?”

“Yes,” she said. “You won’t believe this, but Jonathan wants to get back together with Rosalie. It’s quite unbelievable, isn’t it?”

However, to her surprise, there was no sign of astonishment on Callum’s face, as if he had anticipated this.

“Aren’t you surprised?” Lillian asked strangely.

“It’s bound to happen sooner or later. There’s nothing to be surprised about,” Callum said. Judging from Jonathan’s past behavior toward Rosalie, Callum could tell that Jonathan still had feelings for her.

“How do you know it will happen sooner or later?” Lillian asked, curious.

Callum smiled faintly. “Do you honestly think a man like Jonathan would have so much free time to keep showing up in front of Rosalie all day?”

Lillian was at a loss for words, realizing she couldn’t refute his statement!

“I’m afraid Jonathan chose to break up with Rosalie because he loved her so much but didn’t realize it,”

Callum said.

“It’s useless to realize it now. Rosalie doesn’t love him anymore! She doesn’t want to reconcile with him at all,” Lillian said, pursing her lips.

Callum murmured, “I’m afraid it’s not that simple. If Jonathan could be defeated so easily, he wouldn’t have the status he holds in Strico now.”

Lillian’s face suddenly displayed a look of concern. “What should we do then?”

“We can only take things one step at a time. It’s challenging for others to meddle in a relationship,” he remarked.

“Regardless, if Jonathan bullies Rosalie, you have to help her,” Lillian insisted.

Okay, Iwill,” Callum replied. Sometimes, he felt a twinge of jealousy toward Rosalie for holding such a significant place in Lillian’s heart.

“Also, there’s another matter. Rosalie suspects someone instructed those three gangsters to cause trouble yesterday. Can you assist in investigating it?” Lillian inquired.

“No problem,” Callum responded readily.

Just then, Lillian suddenly remembered something else. “Oh, by the way… Yesterday, you promised to dance that dance,” she said..

She had initially visited his residence yesterday to watch him dance, but she had forgotten about it due to her period Callum raised his eyebrows slightly, realizing that she hadn’t forgotten about it. “Do you still want to watch it?”

The lady before him nodded vigorously without hesitation, “Don’t you need me to rub your stomach?” he asked.

“You can still massage my stomach after you finish your dance. There’s no conflict between the two,”

she said, and her eyes gleamed as bright as stars at that moment.

Callum was speechless and stood up helplessly. “It looks like I have to fulfill this girl’s request,” he thought.

He thought of something and said, “You can only be interested in me, not other men. Do you understand?”

A hint of guilt crossed her face as she thought of all the male stars vying for her attention! However, beneath his intense stare, she hastily assured, “I swear, I only admire other men, but my impure intentions are solely for you.”

He found her reaction amusing, but eventually, he loosened his collar and started to dance as she wished.

He just wished she would look at him.

He longed for her gaze to always be on him!

He was willing to do anything as long as she was happy.

Hence, when the servant walked in with the hot cocoa, she was utterly shocked by the sight that greeted her.

At that moment, Callum was left with only a thin shirt on his body, with all the buttons unfastened except the last one, revealing a suggestive glimpse of his chest.

Meanwhile, Lillian attempted to whistle by putting two fingers in her mouth, but her attempt was/cut short by the sound of the door being pushed open.

“Did I witness something I shouldn’t have?” the servant wondered. Her body trembled as she handed the hot cocoa to Lillian.

Upon leaving the study and trying to close the door behind her, she faintly heard someone inside say, “Well… Next time, we should lock the door before dancing like that.”

“Are you saying that you are hoping to see that again?”

“Well… You danced exceptionally well. You’re incredibly captivating. I stop feeling any pain in my stomach while watching you dance.”

“Are you suggesting that my dance can cure your menstrual cramps?”

“It seems like we do share some sort of mental connection!”

“Lillian…”

The servant closed the door in embarrassment, fully muffling the conversation inside.

“It appears that whenever Mr. White is with Ms. Quinn, he behaves quite differently than usual! He even willingly engages in many inappropriate things,” thought the servant.

Even a servant like her could sense that Callum truly spoiled Lillian.

He pampered her so much that it aroused envy in others.

On the weekend, Rosalie had planned to visit Levi’s small clinic for the first session of her hand treatment. However, she hadn’t expected to run into Calvin when she stepped outside her house.

“I heard from Mr. Sabatini that you were going to his place for treatment today, so I came to pick you up,” Calvin said while opening the car door. “Let’s go. I planned to visit him today as well.”

Rosalie hesitated for a moment before getting into the car.
