The Ceo’s Convict Wife

Chapter 822

When he walked out of the bathroom, he saw Madeline sitting on the couch with a meaningful smile. She said, “It seems that you are still reluctant to leave your sweetheart. You played hero and saved a damsel in distress today, but unfortunately, no matter how reluctant you are, you can’t be with her.”

“I just happened to pass by that place. Since I have decided to marry you, you don’t need to worry about it,” Callum said indifferently.

“That would be best.” Madeline got up and walked to Callum. “You should know how much I did for you. I helped you get back the White family and convinced my parents to let you continue to be the chairman after our marriage of convenience. Lillian can’t do what I did for you. She will never be your backer and help you with anything.”

Madeline believed that she was the only one who could help him.

With that, Madeline raised her arms and wrapped them around Callum’s neck.

Callum’s body stiffened slightly and his eyes flashed. But this time, he didn’t push her away.

Madeline’s eyes flashed with complacency. She thought, “He’ll be conquered by me after all.”

“Callum, only I can really help you become a person above all others and fight side by side with you without letting you be looked down upon by anyone. Lillian will only be your stumbling block,” Madeline said confidently.

Callum’s eyes darkened.

He thought, “Lillian, Lillian, wait for me a little longer, okay? I just hope she’ll give me some time. Just give me some more time.”
