Chapter 999

“What do you think?” Callum asked calmly.

“Well… I did know him from a blind date, but we are just friends, although… we tried to get in touch for the purpose of getting married, but… we didn’t do anything intimate…” Lillian’s voice was getting lower and lower under the man’s gaze.

Lillian then bit her lips and muttered in her heart, “Wait, why am I feeling guilty? I was single at that time, so there’s nothing wrong with me having a blind date!”

Besides, she and Jerick did not engage in any actions that crossed the border.

“Is that so? Are you telling me you have never held hands with him before?” Callum’s voice lazily sounded in her ear.

“Yeah,” Lillian answered.

Callum’s breath sprayed gently on her cheeks, and the man’s handsome face enlarged before Rosalie.

“Callum, what… what are you doing?” Lillian asked in puzzlement.

Callum gently stroked her chin with his fingers. “Even never been this close to you?”

Lillian paused for a while before answering with a slightly flushed face, “Yeah.”

Callum’s lips approached her ear, with his warm breath concentrating on her ear.

Lillian only felt that her ears were getting hotter and hotter. She subconsciously wanted to raise her hand to cover her flushed ear, but Callum pulled her hand down first. “He also has never done this to you, right?” As the man spoke, his lips pressed against Lillian’s ear.

In an instant, Lillian’s face turned completely flushed. She could only feel that the blood flow in her body was accelerating rapidly.

She thought, “Come on! Does this man even realize what he has done is practically tempting me to do things with my “body” that I shouldn’t be doing right now?”

“Has he?” Callum asked with a whispering voice.

“How… how would that even possibly happen?” Lillian stammered, trying to create some distance between them.

She was pregnant now, so she should not be “agitated.”

Callum smiled with satisfaction. His fingers gripped Lillian’s chin and forced the woman to look at him while his other hand held her by her waist more tightly, pulling her into his arms.

“Lillian, since you’re pregnant with my child and intend to pester me for the rest of your life, you’re not allowed to have any intimacy with other men from now on, okay?” Callum stared at Lillian with a serious face.

“But… shaking hands and hugging my idols are acceptable, right?” Lillian pondered about it, trying to bargain with the man.

Callum furrowed his eyebrows slightly. He thought, “Her idols… It seems like she has quite a few of them. She even increases the number of idols to admire almost every year. Anyone will probably have a guess of the number by just looking at the idol posters and pictures she has downloaded on her phone.”

He pondered further again, “She probably has more than ten idols she admires. If all of them shake hands and hug her…”

Just thinking about it made Callum’s scalp start to tingle.

“Of course, I promise you that other than shaking hands and hugging, I won’t do anything further than.

those,” Lillian added.

Callum frowned. “You’re even thinking of doing further than those?”

Lillian turned speechless, wanting to tell the man to just pretend she did not say anything.

As a result, for the remaining time in the morning, Callum had been discussing with Lillian what kind of boundaries she should maintain with the idols.

In the afternoon, Lillian continued to stay in Callum’s office, eating snacks and drinking juice. It could be seen that her life was very nourishing.

Some senior executives and secretaries who entered and exited the chairman’s office were already used to Lillian’s presence, even showing respect towards her. Anyone could see that Lillian would likely be the future lady of the White family.

Finally, when there were no more people coming in and out of the office, Lillian suddenly paused and froze in place completely. She looked down at her abdomen in disbelief.

“What’s wrong?” Callum immediately noticed Lillian’s strange behavior.

Even if the man was working, he would glance at Lillian from time to time and keep an eye on her.

Lillian raised her head and blinked at Callum, only to see that the latter was putting down the pen in his hand and got up, walking towards her at a quick pace.

“I think… there’s a fetal movement,” she answered in puzzlement.

Callum suddenly stopped in his tracks. They then stared at each other with widened eyes. “Fetal movement?” The man’s voice was a little out of tune.

It was not that Callum did not know what a fetal movement was, and he was well aware that Lillian was pregnant. It was also very normal for Lillian to have a fetal movement this month, but when a fetal movement was really associated with the woman in front of him, he had an indescribable feeling about it. Callum walked to Lillian and sat beside her, staring at her slightly bulging belly fixedly.

“Oh! The baby seems to have moved again. Touch it!” Lillian suddenly shouted and quickly pulled Callum’s hand, pressing it against her belly.

In an instant, Callum felt the slight movement in Lillian’s belly through the thin layer of clothing. It was very faint, so much so that it could be easily overlooked. It was a very wonderful feeling, and for the first time, he felt so deeply that there was a small life belonging to them in Lillian’s belly.

“Oh, I read online before that the baby’s movement was like a feeling of blowing bubbles. I didn’t expect it to be true. I wonder if the baby is blowing bubbles with the amniotic acid in my belly,” Lillian muttered.

Meanwhile, Callum was feeling the fetal movement quietly.

Just then, there was a knock on the door out of the blue. A secretary opened the door and walked at a quick pace.

Callum frowned slightly. After a moment of astonishment at the scene before her, the secretary said hurriedly, “Mr. White, something has happened. There’s this news online… It’s about Ms. Quinn, and some reporters have gathered around outside the company, but they’ve been stopped by the security guards.”

“News?” Callum’s eyes gleamed.

Lillian responded in surprise, “News about me? What news? Where can I see it?”

“Ms. Quinn, if you want to see the news, just search for the trending topic on the Internet,” replied the secretary.

Lillian immediately turned on her phone and checked on the trending topic. She almost choked with her own saliva after seeing the trending topic about her.

She immediately opened the trending topic and read the post carefully. The content was about Jerick posting a tweet on Twitter, mentioning that his blind date was pregnant with his child but had abandoned him and ran to find herself a rich man. He even mentioned that the blind date had said that the child was that rich man’s, which made the rich man misunderstand.

Jerick said he was unsure whether to tell the rich man that the child in the woman’s belly was actually not his.

Some netizens discovered that Jerick’s so-called blind date was actually Lillian. Someone even posted photos of Lillian together with Callum recently, and it could be told more or less that Lillian had a pregnant belly now.

Therefore, it was confirmed that Lillian was the pregnant blind date, while Callum was the rich man.
