Chapter 1021

“Mr. White was worried that you might encounter any danger, Ms. Quinn, so he assigned us to protect you discreetly,” the person explained.

Their unusual behavior immediately piqued the interest of the people around them. Suddenly, a voice pierced through. “Isn’t she the woman who had an affair with the chairman of White Maple Group and became trending because of her pregnancy?”

After the earlier incident with Jerick’s post, which had been maliciously pushed to the trending topics, Lillian’s photos and videos from the media had been widely circulated on the internet. Despite Callum’s subsequent efforts to have them taken down, a substantial number of people had already viewed them. As a result, it wasn’t surprising that Lillian was recognized.

However, that comment attracted more attention and caused more people to turn their heads in their direction. Many of them began to gossip among themselves.

As Callum received a call from his subordinate, his brow furrowed slightly. He replied, “Okay, I got it. I’ll be right there.” He then turned to the people in the ongoing video conference and said, “Please continue the meeting. My secretary will take down notes.”

After he said that, Callum left in a hurry. This left the people on the large wall screen, who were in the middle of a video conference, in a state of confusion. They had no idea what had happened to make Callum leave in such a hurry.

Nonetheless, the secretary was fully aware of the situation. After all, besides Lillian, no one else possessed such influence.

When Callum’s car pulled up at the café near the mall’s entrance, he spotted Jonathan, who was also rushing over.

A sudden bad feeling washed over Callum, while Jonathan, on the other hand, arched an eyebrow ever so slightly.

“What a coincidence, we meet again.” Jonathan stepped forward and initiated the conversation. “Indeed, we do,” Callum responded with a touch of awkwardness.

“I heard they came to see celebrities today. Which celebrity is your significant other currently following?” Jonathan asked.

Callum found himself at a loss for words. Lillian followed numerous celebrities, perhaps a dozen or more, and he wasn’t entirely sure which one she was following here today. His previous conversation with Lillian’s bodyguard on the phone had been somewhat vague as well.
