Callum mused, ‘Um… Didn’t she bring her pregnancy pillow with her? And Does she not know what it means to

sneak into a man’s room at midnight and climb into his bed?

Does she really think that I’m insensitive to what she’s doing?’

At that moment, Lillian snuggled up to Callum. He could even smell the faint fragrance she emitted and feel her

breath on his neck and earlobes.

It was like a test for him.

The desire within him that had been suppressed began to rage turbulently due to her actions, making it almost

impossible for him to hold himself back.

Even though he had repeatedly told himself that there was no hope for their relationship, the lust for her

overwhelmed his mind.

“Lillian, how can you behave as if I have no reaction to what you’re doing?” Callum suddenly sat up, opened his

eyes, and stared at the woman who was sleeping beside him.

He also saw her sleeping posture clearly. Although she was holding onto a pregnancy pillow, her arm and leg had

reached past it when she placed them on him.

After being roared at by Callum, Lillian immediately opened her eyes and sat up. “You… You’re not asleep?”

“Even if I were, you would have woken me up!” He said angrily. Despite causing him to be aroused, Lillian still

looked at him innocently.

The moonlight pierced through the window and illuminated her face, round eyes, small nose, and red lips, while the

swelling on her red cheeks had reduced slightly. Nonetheless, it was still a little puffy, making her look like an

adorable little hamster.

“She’s trying to seduce me on purpose!” he thought.

“I… I didn’t realize that I woke you up. I just couldn’t fall asleep and wanted to come to your side. Um… Because

I’m more familiar with you, I thought maybe I could fall asleep by your side,” Lillian quickly explained.

“More familiar?” He suddenly scoffed, “So, if you can’t sleep and another man who knows you better is in the room

next to you, will you lie on that man’s bed?”

She blinked and looked hurt. “You are the only man who knows me well enough that I can lie in bed with!”

He couldn’t help but choke at her words.

“If you don’t like this… I’ll go back to the guest room.” While speaking, Lillian picked up her pillow and prepared to

get out of bed.

When she saw the look on her face, his heart couldn’t help but squeeze in pain again.

“I’ll make an exception this time. There won’t be a next!” he said in a cold voice. In one swift motion, she

immediately put her pillow back on the bed and covered herself with the quilt she used just now.

Her actions left Callum speechless. “Aren’t you afraid that I will do something to you?”

“Well… although I really want you to do something to me, I’m pregnant now. It might be fine during the second

trimester, but I think I had better exercise restraint for the safety of my baby,” she replied seriously.

“Okay, let’s go to bed!” Callum said angrily before lying down again and closing his eyes.

However, her scent continued to linger around his nose, making it difficult for him to fall asleep.

After a while, her voice rang out in his ear abruptly. “Callum, how about I stay here until your birthday? By then, the

swelling on my face would have almost disappeared, and I could eat cake together with you when you come back

from your birthday celebration.”

Callum didn’t answer.

However, Lillian was delighted. “If he didn’t refuse, it means that he agrees.” Callum’s birthday banquet was a

closely-watched event in Jacaster, especially after rumors that most single socialites in the city were invited to

attend spread. Therefore, some joked that it was not a birthday banquet but a pageant for selecting his potential

wife.

Obviously, the fact that Callum’s mother, Ysabel, was a mistress would be a concern for some wealthy families.

That said, no matter how disgraceful her position was, it was overshadowed by how glorious the White Maple Group

was. On top of that, Callum was also the head of the White family.

Anyone who married into the White family would benefit a lot. Moreover, the perks also extended to the bride’s

family.

As a result, the banquet was extremely lively. Ysabel was dressed magnificently, including putting on the White

family’s heirloom. It was as if she was telling everyone that she was the head of the White family.

At that moment, the bored Callum listened to his mother introducing some celebrities.

These women, with exquisite features and all dolled up, were considered stunning in their own right. On top of that,

they came from famous families in Jacaster. The old him who hadn’t met Lillian and was still looking to climb the

social ladder wouldn’t care about the kind of woman he would marry. Instead, all that
