The Ceo’s Convict Wife

Chapter 421

“No need. I won’t change it for the time being. I’ll wait till I’ve gained some practical results and have a stronger resume before I seek out a new job,” Lillian said.

“Don’t you mind that those people did that to you in the past?”

“Yes, but…” Lillian shrugged and said, “This is part of being an adult, right? Take me for instance-although I didn’t get along well with those people, I had to continue staying here for the sake of earning a living. But as for them… Well, the one who wanted to humiliate me was the second daughter of the Hamilton family-Yvette. If they were to stand on my side, that would mean that they are going against Yvette. We were not that close, so they had no reason to do anything for me, right?” Callum was a little flabbergasted. He did not think of that. She had seen through everything.

However, after saying that, she stiffened and looked at him with a strange look.

“What’s the matter? Why are you looking at me like that?” He frowned slightly.

She pursed her lips and said after a long while, “Nothing… I’m hungry. I want to eat something.”

“Okay.” Callum smiled.

Because it was not dinner time, Callum took Lillian to a popular dessert shop for a bite.

Lillian ordered desserts that she was interested in, but she was still absent-minded. Her gaze was still fixed on Callum.

He naturally sensed her weird behavior. But he felt good being watched by her like that.

“What’s going on today? Do you like looking at me so much?” Callum asked with a smile.

Lillian bit her lips. Everyone in the world knew how to seek advantage and avoid harm. She could rationalize that if her colleagues and the chief officer were afraid to oppose Yvette, they would dare not interfere with what had happened between her and the latter.

However, when she had a conflict with Jonathan, he did not hesitate for a moment to intervene. He also helped her take on all the responsibilities. Someone like him must have known that once he interfered, he would have gone against Jonathan.

He chose to stand on her side and had been willing to be her leverage.
