Chapter 923

She remembered that she would always jokingly say, “Callum, do you think we will kiss like this when we’re old? Will

we be sick and tired of kissing then?”

“We won’t,” he said gently. “Lillian, when you get older, I will continue to kiss you until I close my eyes and leave this

world.”

However, that time would never come, not five years ago and definitely not now.

Lillian didn’t struggle but let Callum deepen the kiss.

For her, it seemed to be a kind of farewell.

When the kiss finally ended, Lillian heard Callum’s hoarse voice. “Lillian, you still love me, don’t you? Do you

know how much I long to kiss you like I just did?”

It had been five years. He could finally touch her like this without the pain caused by the curse.

“Lillian, do you know why I chose to break up with you back then? In addition to taking back the White family to

have the means to protect you in the future, it was also because…”

Before he could finish his words, Lillian interrupted him, “If your so-called protection of me is in exchange for being

with another woman, then I’d rather not have such protection.”

His body stiffened and he stared at her who was close to him. There seemed to be a pleading look in his beautiful

dark eyes when he asked, “Lillian, if I say that I did that in the first place to save your life so that you could live,

would you forgive me?”

Lillian looked at Callum calmly and said, “You are not the one who saved my life. It was Rosalie. If not for Rosalie,

my family would have had to sell our house to pay for my surgery. There were the exorbitant charges of the ICU

ward too!”

She remembered that her parents had told her about the past when she was better later. If it hadn’t been for

Rosalie, she would have died already.

Callum’s face suddenly turned pale. “You refuse to believe what I say?”

“How do you expect me to believe you?” Lillian asked. “You said you loved me and wanted to marry me and you

never loved Madeline. But why does she still have the audacity to enter your mansion after you broke up with her?

And it was more than once! Callum, is this what you mean by loving me? You’re a liar!” Callum frowned. “It’s not

what you think it is. She came to my mansion because…”

“What do you mean it’s not what I think? I saw it with my own eyes. I saw her enter your mansion and leave this

morning.” Lillian smiled bitterly. “Are you still going to say that you have nothing to do with her? She stayed in your

mansion all night, and you want me to believe that nothing happened between you and her?”

“What if that’s the

but nothing happened between us! Lillian, do you trust me?”

However, her answer disappointed him.

“How can I trust you? Callum, do you think I’m too easy to fool? When we were dating, you said to me that we

would never break up. I believed it, but then what happened? You broke up with me! And now you want me to trust

that you and Madeline are innocent and you broke up with me so that I could survive? Well, too bad. I won’t believe

His body shook. He put one hand on the edge of her bed to support himself as if he would collapse if he didn’t do

so.

“Am I so unworthy of your trust?” he murmured and looked at her with pain in his The pain was so overwhelming

that Lillian’s heart clenched.

Even if she had planned to completely cut off everything between them, there was still no way to stop the pain.

She thought, “Don’t pay any attention to it. It’s just my imagination. Even though he may have a little affection for

me, enough is enough. I don’t want to be deceived by him again and again.”

“I won’t believe a word you said,” she said.

“Really?” His eyelashes trembled slightly, and he gently brushed her lips with his cold fingers. “You really won’t

regret aborting our child just like that and not having a single relationship with me at all?”

She only felt that her lips had become cold too. The coldness on his fingertips seemed to freeze all her blood. “I

won’t.”

Indeed, she wouldn’t regret it. She had already made such a decision when she was examined by the doctor in the

emergency room.

As if heeding her request, the baby was leaving her, which was likely the cause of the weakened fetal heartbeat.

Even if she didn’t have an abortion, the baby would likely leave her in a few days.

Callum fixed his gaze on Lillian, then slowly withdrew his hand and closed his eyes.

“Well, since you won’t regret it, then I won’t regret it either,” he said in a low voice, and then slowly straightened

up.

His movements were very slow as if he was standing up straight with all his strength.

Then he slowly opened his eyes and looked down at her in the hospital bed. The overwhelming pain in his eyes had

been replaced by a kind of indifference. “Well, Lillian, as you wish. If you don’t want this child, then don’t have it.

From now on, we have nothing to do with each other anymore.”

After saying that, Callum turned around and left the ward.

Lillian’stared at Callum in a daze. Only when his figure disappeared did her tears fall from her eyes.

“Why… does it hurt so much? Everything is just the way I wanted it to be! We really have nothing to do with each

other anymore,” she thought.

The last look he gave her made her realize that he wasn’t just saying that. He would actually do what he said he

would do.

However, she was not happy at all. Her heart felt hollow, a discomfort so profound that she found herself unable to

stop her tears.
