Chapter 566

She was indeed as described by Lillian. Not only was she not planning to give him 1 million dollars, but she also only wanted Callum to drive away the woman in front of her.

However, she didn’t expect him to be so careful that he ended up seeing through her intentions.

At that moment, Lillian’s phone rang. She took out her phone and saw that it was a call from Callum, so she answered it.

“Where are you?” Callum’s gentle voice came from the phone.

“I’m negotiating with the lady of the Fairmount Properties, the marriage partner that the White family has prepared for you,” Lillian said.

“Negotiating?” Callum suddenly became nervous when he heard that. “Did that woman come to you? Did she do anything to you?”

“She said she would pay me a huge sum to get me to leave you, but she wasn’t planning on paying at all,” Lillian replied.

Josephine, who was standing beside her, had her dolled-up face twisted when she heard that. “Lillian isn’t playing by the rules at all! I’ll only embarrass myself further if I stick around any longer!” she thought to herself as she stood up angrily and shot Lillian a warning glare before storming off in silence.

Lillian was still on the phone at the time. When she saw Josephine leave, she immediately called out to her, “Don’t forget to pay for the coffee!”

Josephine staggered upon hearing that and took a moment to steady herself. She then continued to walk toward the cashier not far away.

Callum, who was on the other end of the phone, asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing. Ms. Tall is leaving now, that’s all. I reminded her to pay the bill. After all, she promised that it would be her treat today.”

Hearing this, Callum couldn’t help but smile. It seemed that Lillian would never disappoint him
