The Ceo’s Convict Wife

Chapter 872

He was caught off guard and ended up being tugged by her into the backseat of the car with his body above hers.

Her natural scent, combined with the odor of alcohol, invaded his senses and made him enter a trance-like state.

“Callum… Why did you show up in front of me again?” Lillian murmured.

His body stiffened. She knew that holding him so intimately felt like death by a thousand cuts for Callum.

However, he had no desire to push her away and wished to have her in his arms longer and was willing to endure any pain as long as she wanted to be held by him like this.

“I missed you too much,” Callum said in a low voice. He still answered her, despite knowing that she might forget all about it when she was sober.

“Too much?”

“That’s right.”

“But… Do you have any idea how much I wanted to move on from you?” her voice was choked with sobs, and she began weeping silently.

His eyes darkened. “Of course.” He knew that better than anyone. “I’ll leave after sending you upstairs.”

He was about to get to his feet, but Lillian’s hand was still tightly clenched to his collar, with no sign of letting go. “We… still haven’t gone drinking nor played drinking games together. You also promised to dance for me!”

“I’ll fulfill all that if you can repeat what you just said to me while sober,” he responded.

Lillian grinned widely at him. “I’m… perfectly sober right now.”

Callum’s eyes were stormy. “She wouldn’t be smiling at me in such close quarters if that were true,” he scoffed internally.
