But this doesnât mean Iâve accepted your feelings. If youâre truly sincere, wait until the day I wholeheartedly accept youâ
âThatâs great! Lexi, youâre finally giving me a chance to prove myself, this is amazing!â Callum exclaimed, jumping up from the floor He quickly pulled Lexi into his arms and planted a passionate kiss on her lips Lexi tried to push him away, but despite all her efforts, she couldnât budge him Callum kissed Lexi passionately, careful not to touch her belly. cradling her head gently.

You have to take care of yourself âYouâre so shameless, Natalia is still here Lexi lightly punched Callum and glanced over at Natalia, only to find that she had disappeared Natalia was nowhere to be seen, and the door to the room was closed. She must have left during their passionate kiss âNatalia? Natalia? Lexi stepped out of the room and looked around the now empty café Natalia was nowhere to be found âLexi I think Buttercup didnât want to disturb us, so she left Why donât you give her a call?

You have no idea whatâs going on Now Natalia is gone. You have to find her!â
âWhat do you mean she snuck out of Melfort? Why?â Callum asked, confused.
