Chapter 820

“I don’t want Lillian to get hurt again. Besides, the conflict today is because of me, so I can’t not worry about her!” Rosalie said.

“If you really can’t rest assured, I will have someone find out where Callum took Lillian…”

Right then, Rosalie’s phone rang. The caller ID showed that it was Lillian.

Rosalie hurriedly answered the call, and the familiar voice of her best friend came from the other end of the phone. “Rosalie, are you okay?” “I’m fine. What about you? I heard from Jon’s men that Callum took you away. Do you want me to pick you up?” Rosalie asked anxiously.

“No, I… I’ll go back by myself later. Don’t worry. Callum won’t do anything to me.” When Lillian said this, she couldn’t help but glance at Callum, who was standing in front of her. Coincidentally, she met his gaze.

A brief moment later, Lillian quickly lowered her eyes and continued to ask Rosalie about the current situation. After confirming that her friend was in the car with Jonathan and that they had left the scene of the incident while Jonathan’s men had taken care of Jerick, she finally felt relieved.

After ending the call with Rosalie, Lillian phoned Jerick.

“I’m sorry, Jerick. I asked you to go shopping with me today, but this happened. How are you doing now?” Lillian asked.

Hearing her talk to another man named Jerick grated on Callum’s nerves. He wondered, ‘She cares about that man so much. Does she like him? It’s only natural for her to fall in love with another man, isn’t it? After all, I left her first.

But why… Why does my heart hurt so much? Why do I feel such resentment?

She used to love me so much! She even wanted to be with me for life!’

“That’s good. Me? I’m all right. I’ll tell you later. Okay… That’s it for now.” When Lillian finished the call with Jerick, she looked up and met Callum’s burning gaze again.
