Chapter 836

After all, if Callum and Madeline had broken up long ago, Lillian would not really be considered a homewrecker.

“I think so,” Stephen said. “Alright, alright. This matter should also be considered resolved. Later on, let’s ask the bodyguard guarding here about the time we can go back.”

“But, if Madeline and Callum had broken up a long time ago, would that mean Callum still likes Lillian?

Lillian, why don’t you get together again with…” Abigail said.

“Mom, didn’t I say that before? It’s impossible for me to get together with him again, so stop having ideas anymore!” Lillian hurriedly said, extinguishing her mother’s intention.

Abigail could not help but let out a sigh. After all, she still had a good impression of Callum. Although she once blamed Callum for abandoning Lillian like that in the past. Now, thinking back about how Lillian never had a boyfriend these five years, and Callum seemed to still -have an interest in Lillian, she could not help but think about hoping for them to get back together.

“Enough with that! What’s so good about this guy from the White family? When Lillian had an accident back then, that guy abandoned her for his own sake. Even if he is successful now, he’s not worthy of us!” Stephen shouted, “Do you think our daughter can’t find another man to marry other than Callum?”

“I was just saying,” Abigail muttered.

“Alright, alright, Mom, Dad, once this matter is over, I’ll have nothing to do with Callum anymore. We should be able to go home in two days,” Lillian hurriedly said, fearing that her parents would argue again about her.

However, when they asked the bodyguard that night when they could leave, the bodyguard just replied, “Mr. White hasn’t given me an order yet. When he gives his permission, you can naturally go back.”

“Can you contact Callum and ask about it?” Lillian asked.

“Ms. Quinn, you can contact Mr. White by yourself. Mr. White told me that he did not change his phone number, so you can contact him at any time,” replied the bodyguard again.”

11:107 Upon hearing it, Lillian turned silent.

That night, she was alone in her room, staring at her mobile phone, but she did not dial Callum’s number.

Back then, she deleted Callum’s phone number from her phone.

But the number had already been imprinted in her mind. Even if she tried hard not to think about it and wanted to forget it, that number was still very clear that she recalled it again.

“Contact Callum?” Lillian thought with hesitation. In the end, she did not make the call and instead buried herself in the bed like an ostrich.

She kept telling herself in her mind that even if Callum and Madeline were no longer engaged, and even if there were no feelings developed between them, it was impossible for her to get together with Callum again.

To her, Callum was just an ex-boyfriend.

Thinking in a daze, Lillian soon gradually fell asleep.

She slept until she felt thirsty and could not resist the urge to get up and drink some water. She then opened her eyes drowsily and picked up the glass placed by the bedside, taking a sip of the water she had left there unfinished before going to bed.

Just when she was halfway through her drink, her drowsy eyes met another pair of eyes in the room, and she suddenly widened her eyes Immediately after, she choked on the water and coughed dryly.

After coughing for some time, Lillian put the glass aside awkwardly and looked blankly at Callum, who was sitting on a chair in the room.

The moonlight shone on the man’s face, showing a touch of coldness and loneliness.

Callum was wearing a navy suit and a black shirt, with the bangs on his forehead combed back, looking just like what she had seen on the Internet before when reporters surrounded him for interviews.

Lillian suddenly had a rather bizarre feeling. After all, she had just watched the man’s news video online today, but now he suddenly appeared in front of her.

Neither of them spoke and just stared at each other.

After a long time, Lillian could not help blinking her eyes and said to Callum, “Ugh… It’s late now.”

11:10 “I know.” The magnetic male voice was heard in the room.

Lillian thought after hearing the response, “Does he know? If he knows, why did he suddenly appear in my room at this late hour? Oh, yeah. This is not really my room. The whole condominium actually belongs to him.”

“Why did you come here at this late hour?” Lillian hesitated for a moment and asked.

“I just want to see you,” Callum answered. Even just sitting next to her and looking at her sleeping silently just now would make the man happy.

He looked at Lillian’s sleeping posture, which was not particularly attractive as before. Seeing that she would grind her teeth occasionally in her sleep and roll on the bed, he remembered the times when they were together in the past.

To him, those were beautiful moments.

“You slept quite soundly,” Callum said. “But you almost fall out of the bed. Maybe next time, I should get a bigger custom-made bed for you so you won’t fall easily.”

-Lillian was sweating profusely. She thought, “This man just came here in the middle of the night just to see me rolling on the bed?”

“By the way, I read today’s news. I don’t have any business here now, do I? When can I go back with my parents?” Lillian asked the question straightforwardly. Since Callum was here, it did save her the effort of giving him a call.

“Do you really want to go back early?” Callum asked.

“Of course. No one likes being restricted from moving all the time,” said Lillian.

Callum kept silent.

Lillian paused for a while and continued, “Callum, I don’t know what happened between you and Madeline, and I don’t want to get involved with you two either. Madeline’s words had singled me out at the press conference today. As long as there is no more connection between you and me in the future, this matter would be calmed down.”

Callum’s face darkened slightly. “You don’t want to have any connections with me anymore?”

“Yes.” Lillian gave him this answer with great certainty. “Callum, I thought I had made it clear to you that day.”

11:10 “What if I don’t agree?” The man stood up and approached her.

Lillian suddenly felt hilarious. “Why would you not agree? What right do you have not to agree? We’ve broken up. It was you who proposed it back then! Is it because you broke up with Madeline and had no feelings for her anymore that you came to me again? What am I, a back-burner?”

A trace of pain flashed in Callum’s eyes. “You are never one!”

“But what you did had made me consider as a back-burner!” Lillian said angrily, “Callum, you can choose not to love me or break up with me because these are your rights, but please be responsible for your feelings. I’m also a human being, and I have emotions. Even if I don’t have money and power, I’m not a person at your beck and call!”
