The Ceo’s Convict Wife

Chapter 994

Tentatively, she asked, “Um… do you still love me deep down? But you don’t want to straightforwardly forgive me, so you’re hoping that in a month, I’ll keep pestering you?”

Callum stared at Lillian and thought, “Does she have to be so direct?”

Though, he had to admit, it was exactly as she described.

“Is that it?” she inquired further.

He turned away, feeling uncomfortable under her intense gaze.

“Is it or not?” she pressed on, circling to his front and continuing to stare at him. Her hands playfully tugged at his arm. “I didn’t misunderstand, did I?”

He stared at her, thinking that this woman had an uncanny ability to push him into corners.

“Yes,” he gruffly replied, then went back to his desk to look at the pile of documents.

Lillian was overjoyed that he had admitted it. She had been right; he did still have feelings for her. He had just been hurt deeply by her in the past.

Lillian approached Callum’s desk. “So, Callum, when do you plan to forgive me? In two months? Three months? Or maybe half a year? If it’s half a year, our child will be born by then. Isn’t that too long? Callum, could you at least give me an approximate time so I can prepare mentally? Once you forgive me, what do you think about having a forgiveness banquet? It could be a celebration and a reminder for us not to have misunderstandings in the future.”

She chatted away, her words flowing freely.

Callum was momentarily speechless as he thought, “A forgiveness banquet? Where did she come up with this? And bargaining over the time for forgiveness!”
