Chapter 727 Vee Is the Same Inside Out
The housekeeper did not know what happened, but seeing how angry Callum was, he nodded
respectfully and went to do his bidding.
At half past ten in the evening, Keh drove into the garage.
"Mr. Callum seems to be in a bad mood. be careful and choose your words wisely, Mr. Keh," the
housekeeper advised him.
Keh paused in his tracks and asked, "Is it because of my sister again?"

His sister was spoiled and stubborn, Even the most harmless ofments from others would upset
her.
"Mr. Callum didn''t mention anything. I think it’d be best if you talked to him."
"All right."
In the living room, Callum’s face sank when he saw Keh. He asked, "I heard you found yourself
a girlfriend?"
"Yes, I nned to tell you and Mom next week," Keh replied.
"Her name is Xavia?"
"Yes. Vee is a very gentle woman. Although we’ve only known each other for less than a month and
know that she has a child, surely everyone makes mistakes. I''m not someone who cares about
other people''s opinions."
Callum was stumped for a moment. He could not suppress his anger and pped Keh over the
head. "You want to be with a slut?! Are you blind?!"
"Dad! Vee isn''t what you think. You don''t understand the whole story. She was a victim," Keh
said, trying to defend Xavia. He did not understand why his gentle and refined father would say
such harsh words.
"Stop this! Break up with her now and don''t make me repeat myself!"
"Why? You and Mom have been urging me to get married, and now that I found the love of my life,
you want to stop me?"
"I won''t ept her into the royal family. Her background isn''t clean, and her social connections are
complicated. Some people aren’t as simple as they appear on the surface. Haven''t you seen
enough of the ugliness and filth within the royal family?"
"Dad, why won’t you believe that Vee isn''t that kind of person? I can prove it to you. She''s the same
inside and out."
Callum was annoyed by the sight of his son. He let out a sigh and said, "Just go to your room."
Keh furrowed his brows, opened his mouth to say something, but then decided against it. "Fine.
Good night, Dad."

That night, the Sullivans held a family meeting. Chloe recounted every detail of the incident
involving Callum.
Noah was in a set of cotton pajamas. He brought two cups of hot milk to the table and his eyes
glinted coldly as he said, "Grandpa, I think Chloe did the right thing. We don''t need to grovel for
Callum''s favor. There''s no need to pander to them."
Desmond furrowed his brows in contemtion. "For now, we don''t have any ties with the royal
family, but what if we form a tie with them in the future?"
As far as he knew, Callum was a good man. And it would be beneficial to have someone to take
care of his two grandchildren.
"Grandpa, I know what you''re thinking, but we can deal with the future when ites. Having you
by my side is enough," Chloe said as she gripped her mug. Under the warm lights, her curlyshes
and soft facial contours made her look as delicate as a princess.
"I''ll think about how to handle this. You both go to bed," Desmond replied, avoiding further
discussion on the topic.
Noah and Chloe exchanged nces, sensing that Desmond had other ideas in mind. He had not
explicitly stated anything, so they did not feel it was appropriate to ask further.
As they parted ways, something crossed Noah''s mind, prompting him to stop Chloe.
"What''s the matter?"
"I have a friend who works as a talent manager. He suggested that we should stop working with
Michael," Noah said.
Cocking her head, Chloe asked, "Does he have a scandalous history or something?"
The corridor was dimly lit and the darkness shrouded Noah''s face. "He acted as some man''s lover
to get better resources. If thises to light, it might not reflect well on us. In any case, we don''t
have to work with him anymore. I''ve already settled his appearance fees with the finance
department."
