Chapter 159

“He’s the chairman of White Maple Group and the current head of the White family,” Jonathan said, then looked at Rosalie in slight puzzlement. “Don’t you know who he is? Didn’t Lillian mention him before?”

Rosalie shook her head, certain that she had never once heard the name “Callum White” from her best friend.

However, she knew about White Maple Group. Although it was not a local enterprise, it was a famous logistics company that had partnered with businesses in Strico.

She thought. But why would Lillian have something to do with this Callum guy? Furthermore, in that call earlier, it was said that Callum himself caught her.

Does that mean the person I saw sitting in that Maybach today was actually Callum?

Rosalie initially presumed Lillian was purely kidnapped, but now, things seemed to be different.

“Then… I’ll go find her!” All of a sudden, Rosalie turned around, planning to find her best friend according to the address she had just heard.

“Do you really think you can get in there?” Jonathan questioned indifferently.

Struck dumb, Rosalie halted in her tracks and hesitated for a moment. “Then… I’ll call the cops first and make them take me there.”

“If so, I can guarantee that there’s no chance you’ll get in.” Jonathan smiled gently and walked slowly to Rosalie, looking at her as if she were a clueless child. “Do you know what kind of person Callum is? There are hundreds of ways for him to stop you from seeing your friend.”

Rosalie naturally didn’t know who Callum was, so she could only look at the person in front of her with eager eyes.

Jonathan explained, “At first, Callum was just an illegitimate child of the White family who was abandoned abroad. His father had a truckload of sons, including two legitimate ones. Hence, how do you think an illegitimate child who was originally insignificant like him got to his current position?”
