Chapter 940
Rosalie’s exposed skin had become cold, prompting Jonathan to say, “You should rest for a while. I’ll wake you up when we get home.”
“You are not going to disappear on me again, are you?” Rosalie inquired worriedly. It was entirely by chance that she had discovered Jonathan this time.
“I won’t, so get some sleep now,” Jonathan assured Rosalie.
His reassurance put her at ease. After a night of turmoil, she was indeed exhausted. Rosalie slowly closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.
Jonathan, on the other hand, watched her sleep deeply, his mind filled with thought.
The car slowly made its way back to the Youngblood residence.
He did not wake her up when they got back. Instead, he carried her to their bedroom and gently placed her on the bed.
“Rosalie, I can’t forgive that woman, so please do not plead on her behalf anymore,” he said softly, his voice a mixture of caution and entreaty.
When Lillian saw Rosalie, her face was filled with concern. “What is the matter? Has something happened?”
In Lillian’s opinion, Rosalie should be leading a trouble-free life since she was now the lady of the Youngblood family. Moreover, Jonathan loved her dearly, and their children had also been found.
After hesitating for a moment, Rosalie said, “It’s a complicated situation.”
“Can’t Jonathan help you resolve it?” Lillian asked..
“Someone did me a great favor, but that person offended Jon. Jon refuses to let that person go because they once did terrible things to him. I am caught between a rock and a hard place now, not knowing whether to plead for that person or not.” Rosalie smiled bitterly.
When Lillian heard that, she frowned. “It appears you are in a difficult situation, a classic case of conflicting loyalties.”
“What about you? How are things going with you?” Rosalie changed the subject, choosing not to dwell on her own troubles.
“I am doing well, eating and sleeping well every day. I’m not experiencing morning sickness as much now, maybe because my baby is being considerate of me.” Lillian smiled and lightly rubbed her belly. “What about Callum? Are you really no longer in contact with him? Has he truly abandoned you and this child, not even asking how you are?” Rosalie inquired.
Lillian suddenly felt a pang of guilt. “Well, he probably has no idea I have decided to keep this child.”
“What do you mean?” Rosalie was surprised.
“He probably thought the baby was no longer in this world because I was about to have an abortion right in front of him at that time,” Lillian explained.
“So you’re saying Callum believed you had an abortion, but in reality, you didn’t?” Rosalie asked nervously.
“Yes. That’s right…” Lillian hesitated to respond.
“But have you considered that if, one day, Callum finds out about the child’s existence and insists on having custody of the child?” Rosalie questioned.
Hearing that, Lillian exclaimed, The child is mine, and I will not let anyone separate us!”
Rosalie continued, “But he can take legal action and seek custody. Back then, Warren also sued to obtain custody of Aiden from Amelia.”.
Lillian’s face turned pale, and she put down her dessert. “W-Will he be able to claim the child’s custody?” “If he genuinely intends to and hires the best lawyers, when the child turns two, there’s a fifty-fifty chance he could win custody,” Rosalie explained.
Lillian bit her lip tightly, her hands clenched.

Listening to her words, Rosalie felt like something was not quite right
Een though Callum appeared cold when he mentioned stay overnight in his mansion made no sense

There was no need for such a complicated breakup if he still cared about Madeline. He had already accomplished his goal of freeing himself from the Tall family control sod sequiring their assets The Tall family was essentially at his mercy
Furthermore it appeared that White Maple Group had announced the sequisition of a portion of the Tall family’s averts just two days after Lillian went to find Callum What was odd was that the price offered was really decent, given the Tall family’s current station.
