Chapter 1010
“Yeah. She’s going to stay abroad for a while. It’s going to be good for her, and also for me,” he
murmured, looking at Lillian’s face. “From now on, I only have you.”
As he spoke, he held her in his arms, smelling the faint fragrance on her.
His mother’s going abroad meant that she finally admitted her failure, giving up fighting over the rights. of White Maple Group with him.
However, this also meant that there was an insurmountable gap between him and his mother.
The original weak relationship between the mother and child was completely gone.
Lillian felt Callum’s body trembling slightly, and every breath he took seemed to come with a nasal sound.
“Is he going to cry?” she wondered in her heart.
Although he seemed to be indifferent, she was still his mother. However, he was practically cutting ties with her right now.
Lillian raised her hands and hugged Callum. “Callum, you won’t have only me. You still have our children. In the future, I will give birth to many children. When your mother sees us living a happy life later on, she may find that she was wrong.”
“Okay,” Callum replied responded with a muffled tone, and his head was still buried in her shoulder.
“Also… If you cry, I won’t laugh at you,” Lillian added.
“What? Do you think I’m still a three-year-old child?” His voice was hoarse, and Lillian gradually felt moistness on her shoulders.
When Lillian returned to Strico, Rosalie was a little surprised. “Why did you come back so soon? Aren’t you going to stay at Sloummont for a little longer?”
“I’m coming back to deliver my child. Besides, I created my obstetric record in Strico. I’m also more used to the food here,” Lillian replied. “Although Sloummont’s food is also very delicious, it’ll be more relaxing and easier to return to the place I’m familiar with. By the way, are you free tonight? Callum and I would like to invite you to dinner with Jonathan and the children. Amelia is busy with her business at night. We can find a morning to meet up with her.”
“Okay,” Rosalie agreed.
That night, Rosalie took her three children and Karina to the banquet.
After all, Zaid was practically attached to Karina. If Rosalie didn’t bring Karina along, Zaid wouldn’t come with her at all.
After seeing the three little ones, Lillian naturally felt envious! Others had to be pregnant three times before they had three children. However, her good friends had three of them at once, not to mention that all of them were so cute!
At this moment, Lillian became like a strange woman, touching and kissing the three children. As a result, Zaid refused her advances directly. Although Guillermo didn’t refuse, his expression was obviously reluctant. Only Jennifer had fun with Lillian, which comforted her a little bit.
“You can kiss your baby after he or she’s born.” Rosalie joked.
“There’s still four months!” Lillian muttered.
“Four months will pass quickly.”
The two women were chatting while warmly helping the four children to stack up the plate. Meanwhile, the two men looked at each other. Callum took the lead in toasting, “Thank you for saving Lillian.”
If Jonathan hadn’t saved Lillian from Madeline’s kidnapping, perhaps Callum wouldn’t be able to see her at all, let alone expect their child to be born. Every time he thought of this, he would be scared.
“I saved her because she once saved Rosie,” Jonathan said.
If Lillian was only Rosalie’s best friend, Jonathan wouldn’t have even batted an eyelash even if she died in front of him.

“Anyway, thank you, I owe you a favor. If you have something that you’d need help with in the future, I will do my best to help you,” Callum replied. It was an exceptional favor from someone like him. “Cheers.”
After saying that, he raised the glass of wine in his hand and drank it all.
Seeing this, Jonathan also raised the glass of wine in his hand and gulped it down.
“If you really think that you owe me a favor, why don’t you stop Lillian from bringing Rosie to those male stripping shows?” Jonathan asked.
However, he lowered his voice when he said that and didn’t let the two women and four children hear it. After all, this was something embarrassing to talk about.
Callum’s face darkened when he heard that. He had a headache for Lillian’s hobby, but he couldn’t stop her from watching them.
As long as the woman showed her gentler side, shooting him a pitiful and cager look, he would surrender completely.
Callum would even help buy tickets, take her to meet her idol, and then ask for autographs and even
posters.
It was especially the case recently. She seemed to be obsessed with another male group. Callum thought that she would perhaps ask for signed posters, and photos, even to meet those idols in the future.
At this moment, Callum could only say, “I…I’ll try my best.
“Try?” Jonathan raised his eyebrows slightly.
“She’s pregnant now. A pregnant woman needs to keep her body and mind happy. Let’s wait until she gives birth to talk about that.” Callum was a little embarrassed.
“After the baby is born, will you really be able to control her?” Jonathan questioned.
“I think so.” However, when Callum said that, he could clearly feel the guilt in his voice.
“Okay, I hope we won’t meet each other again in such a venue, having to bring our wives home,” Jonathan said.
The darkened expression on Callum’s face clearly showed that he was reminded of his previous unpleasant experiences.
“I don’t think it’ll happen again,” Callum replied.
Now he only hoped that Lillian’s enthusiasm for those idols would lessen after their baby was born. Otherwise, he couldn’t help but shiver when he imagined how she would bring the children along with her when fangirling.
It was terrible to think about it!
After the banquet, Lillian and Callum returned to the car. “What did you talk about with Jonathan when you were having dinner?” asked Lillian. “You don’t look happy.”
“Nothing. We were just chit-chatting,” answered Callum.
“Well, looking at Rosie’s three children, I really wish our children could be born and grow up soon. This way, I can do a lot of things with them,” Lillian said emotionally.
“What do you want to do with our child?” Callum asked casually.
