The Ceo’s Convict Wife

Chapter 260

Callum turned around and landed his gaze on Bradley. After a while, he chuckled, “It seems that it’s really a misunderstanding.”

His disdainful gaze and casual words immediately made Bradley’s face turn red.

It was apparent that Callum was implying that Bradley was someone whom others would simply look down upon. Yet, Bradley couldn’t refute Callum’s words at that moment.

Callum then turned to Lillian and said, “If there’s any misunderstanding in the future, just let me know. Don’t make others think you don’t have a boyfriend.”

With that, he patted Lillian’s head intimately. Lillian suddenly felt as if she was exposed to the limelight and attracted more envious eyes.

However, she would break up with Callum someday. She was afraid that the envy she received presently would equal the ridicule she would receive in the future.

Lillian’s face turned bitter. She felt that she could only suffer in silence at that moment.

The meeting soon ended in an atmosphere of envy and embarrassment. Once the meeting ended, Jade and Bradley left the conference room quickly. The colleagues who had mocked Lillian earlier also left with a sour expression.

The director turned to Callum in satisfaction and praised Lillian. “Lillian has always performed well in our institute. What happened yesterday was a misunderstanding. I think everybody already understood everything from the meeting just now.”
