Chapter 287
The Imposter Bride
Holy jiwokEL Callum was hit with a sudden revelation, but his body seemed to react on its own, sweeping Lexi off her feet and carrying her towards the large, luxurious kingâsize bed.
He craved her, his desire refusing to be ignored for even a moment longer Lexi resisted struggling against him. She wasnât some object for his pleasure, she wouldnât bel But her efforts were nothing more than childâs play to Callum, like a playful tickle that barely registered.
As they fell onto the expansive bed Lexi glared at Callum âYou better let me go right now, you dishonorable brute Callum deftly removed their clothing and whispered in Lexâs ear, No, Iâm not a brute Didnât you tell me to start a new life? So save me, because god, I donât know why, but Im hellishly obsessed with you Lex was taken aback. She never expected Callum to develop such feelings for her Exposed and vulnerable, Lex shook her head in embarrassment No, no, no, youâre just using me as a replacement for Natalia You canât do this Callum forcefully parted Lexâs legs and leaned over her, murmuring to her. Thatâs not it These days, I keep thinking about you involuntarily. Whether Iâm happy or upset, always want to share it with you.
Since you said Iâm beyond redemption, why donât you save me, give me a chance to start over to break free from my infatuation with Buttercup Lex wanted to push Callum away, but his words acted like a spell, making her feel dizzy Callum had already had his way by the time she regained her senses.
âSweetheart please give me the chance to start anew and break free from my obsession with Natalia, Callum pleaded, almost like a prayer, as he pressed into her Lex pulled the thin blanket over her face, hating herself for somewhat enjoying the sensation. She was the one beyond redemption Their tryst continued under Callumâs relentless pursuit. Lexi resented him in her heart, but her body yearned for him. Closing her eyes, she soon succumbed to Callumâs advances The orgasm passed, leaving Lex completely exhausted. She lay limp on the bed, not wanting to meet Callumâs gaze Suddenly, Callum, who was about to get up, scooped Lexi into his arms Startled. Lexi quickly wrapped her arms around his neck afraid of being dropped, âWhat are you doing?â
itâs not very comfortable here. Letâs change the venue Callum gave her a suggestive smile, carrying Lexi towards the bathroom Entering the bathroom, Callum gently placed Lexi in the filled bathtub before joining her Feeling weak, Lexi could barely lift her fingers. She was unsure whether it was due to the warm water, but her stomach started to churn. She leaned against the side of the tub and retched âAre you okay? Do you feel unwell somewhere? Callum asked with concern Lex shook her head âNo, Iâm just feeling a bit queasy Although Lexi claimed she was fine, Callum couldnât help but worry. He stepped out of the tub, draped a bathrobe around himself, and rang for Rita âGet the doctor Ms Lexi isnt feeling well Rita rushed off and soon returned with the private doctor of the castle By this time Callum had helped Lex get dressed He didnât want any other man to see his woman. The doctor carefully inquired about Lexâs diet lately, and, after a thorough examination, handed her a pregnancy test stick âMs Lexi, if Iâm not mistaken, thereâs a good chance you might be pregnant. I need you to take this test in the bathroom Lexi was stunned impossible How could she be pregnant? Impossible!
âNo no, no, doctor. Iâm just feeling a bit queasy I canât be pregnant,â Lexi immediately denied the possibility.
Meanwhile, Callumâs eyes lit up. âAre you doubting my ability or your own? If youâre too tired, I donât mind assisting you with the test.â
Imagine if she really carried Callumâs child That would be wonderful. He was 35 and single. His family had been dissatisfied with him for a while.
Compared to Lexiâs denial, Callum was full of confidence His family had always had excellent genes.
He was almost certain he was right Reluctantly, Lexi went to the bathroom, followed the doctorâs instructions, and used the test stick. Her heart was pounding as she watched the test strip slowly turn red: She was praying silently, hoping that the doctor was wrong.
However, before she could see the result, Callum couldnât wait any longer and barged in âWhat does it say?â
Lexi jumped âWhy did you just barge in without knocking?â
Callum just shrugged âWhatâs there to be afraid of? Have I not seen every part of you?â
Knowing Lexâs stubborn personality, he figured that if she didnât want to be pregnant but found out she was, she would definitely try to hide it.
âLetâs let the doctor see it Callum reached out his large hand towards Lex Hesitant. Lexi didnât want to hand over the test âWhat if the doctor made a mistake? What if this test isnât accurate?
âWhy worry about what ifs? Letâs just go see the doctor, then weâll know for sure Callum said, wrapping his arm around Lexiâs shoulder and leading her out of the bathroom The doctor took the pregnancy test and declared, âCongratulations. Ms Lexi Youâre pregnant His words hit Lexi like a ton of bricks it couldnât be true. She couldnât be pregnant!
âNo, you must be mistaken. This test is faultyâ Lexi instinctively denied the doctorâs diagnosis âMs. Lex, you may question my medical expertise, but you cannot doubt the reliability of this advanced technology This pregnancy test is absolutely foolproof, itâs so precise it can detect conception the moment it happens,â the doctor arrogantly declared, striding out of the room with sureâfooted steps
