Chapter 492
“How handsome is he?” Callum raised an eyebrow.
“If I were 20 years younger, I swear I would go after him right away! I can’t even imagine how many
girls he will enchant when he starts kindergarten!” Lillian eximed, suddenly transforming into a
devoted fan of Aiden.
Callum furrowed his brows and thought, “Handsome and cute? And she’s even going to chase after
him? Talk about being awkward!”
“If you were 20 years younger, would you really pursue him?” he inquired.
“Yes! You have not met him yet. You should meet him the next time Rosalie brings him out. Rosalie
ims he is even more attractive in person than he appears in photos…” Lillian’s voice paused as
she noticed Callum’s expression was not quite right. She quickly changed her tone and said, “Of
course, even if he is handsome and cute, he is not as good-looking as you!”
She sighed inwardly as she abruptly changed the subject. She had almost forgotten how easily
Callum became envious.
“Do you really think I’m good-looking?” he asked, scrutinizing her.
She continued to tter him, saying, “Of course. He is no match for you. They say that kids who
look good when they are young do not always grow up to be good-looking.”
“So, do you mean that I didn’t look good when I was a child?” he asked.
When she heard those words, Lillian almost choked. “That’s not what I meant. You must have been
very attractive when you were younger. In any case, you are the most handsome man now! You
have no idea how much I adored you when I first saw you all those years ago. And I have not
forgotten about you after all these years…”
Her throat felt parched, and she was embarrassed at her own remarks. Although it was generally
epted that women prefer to hear ttering remarks, Callum found those remarks to be enjoyable
as well.
When Lillian said those words, she pitied herself and felt disgusted.
It was, however, her own fault that she fell in love with him. She had no other option but to coax
him.
Although Callum knew that Lillian’s ttery at that moment wasn’t entirely genuine, he couldn’t help
but feel a bit pleased by it.
As a result, he did not intervene and allowed her to continue.
Afterward, Lillian had already finished her drink, and Callum had not yet stopped her. She licked her
lips and swallowed her saliva. “Do you finally understand what I am saying? In my opinion, you are
the most handsome.”
“Ever since I was a child?” he asked calmly.
She nodded vigorously.
“But you’ve never seen what I looked like as a child, have you?” he inquired.
Her head, which had been nodding vigorously, suddenly froze. “How about you give me a childhood
photo of yourself, and I promise to keep it with me at all times?” she proposed.
“Sure. I’ll give you a photo from my childhoodter,” he agreed.
The moment Lillian realized he was really going to give her his childhood photo, she was
speechless..
Nevertheless, when Lillian considered how adorable Callum must have been as a child, Lillian
began to anticipate seeing Callum’s childhood photos.
Rosalie’s mood turned gloomy as the date for the court hearing in the hit-and-runpensation
case involving Larry approached.
Even if awsuit was sessful, there was a high likelihood that nopensation would be
awarded.
At noon, Lucas called Rosalie and asked, “Do you know where the actress, Aubrielle Wood, is? I-I
would like to meet her.”
“Is there a problem?” Rosalie inquired.
“All I want to do is talk to her about Larry’s situation. Maybe she will sympathize with Larry. I am not
asking her to admit that she was the one driving, but she might be willing to give Larry’s family some
money so that he could have better treatment, Lucas exined. He just wanted to make onest
effort.
Larry was, after all, an employee of hispany, but thepany was still in its early stages, and
its ability to assist Larry’s family was severely limited.
Even though thepany had made several donations to Larry’s family, it was still insufficient to
cover the enormous medical expenses they faced.
On the other hand, the actress Aubrielle was quite well-known, and there were recent reports that
she had purchased a home that cost 12 million dors, implying that she might be able to cover
Larry’s medical expenses temporarily.
Rosalie was hesitant because the evidence at the time was insufficient. Even if the case was heard,
the court might not be able to determine that Aubrielle was the true perpetrator. Perhaps the only
thing she could do to help Larry was to make Aubrielle feel sorry for him.
“All right, I’ll take you there,” Rosalie replied. She had been keeping an eye on Aubrielle’s activities
recently and knew that Aubrielle was filming in the film studio at the time.
“Okay. I’lle to pick you upter,” Lucas said.
“Okay,” Rosalie replied before hanging up the phone and going back to sorting through her
documents.
Shortly afterward, Lucas arrived. Rosalie got into the car, and they headed toward the film studio.
“Are you all right that day?” Lucas started a conversation.
Rosalie was taken aback for a moment before realizing what he meant. He was referring to the
incident in which Jonathan forced her car to a halt. His driver then approached her to invite her into
his vehicle.
“I’m fine,” Rosalie replied.
“Who is that person anyway?” Lucas paused for a moment before asking, “Is he your boyfriend?”
Hearing that, Rosalie smiled bitterly. “Maybe he used to be, but not anymore,” she thought, “No, I do
not have a boyfriend right now, and I do not intend to get one,” she said calmly.
Lucas fell silent and didn’t say anything more.
When they arrived at the film studio, Rosalie led Lucas to Aubrielle’s film crew.
Rosalie approached Aubrielle and asked, “Ms. Wood, can we talk for a moment?”
“Why are you here again?” Aubrielle frowned, frustrated.

“Hi. The court hearing ising up, so I wanted to meet you again, Ms. Wood,” Rosalie exined
and then introduced Lucas. “This is Larry’s colleague, and he has something he wants to discuss
with you. Is it okay?”,
“What is it? Hurry up. I’m about to shoot my scene,” Aubrielle said impatiently.
Lucas quickly exined Larry’s situation at the time in the hospital and said, “Ms. Wood, Larry’s
family really cannot afford the medical expenses anymore. However, if we stop using the imported
medication, Larry’s recovery will be even more difficult. He’s only 25 years old, still young. Ms.
Wood, could you please pay Larry’s medical bills in advance for the time being? They will repay you
when thepensation is received or when his family has the money.”
The instant Aubrielle heard that her face immediately darkened. “Why are you asking me to pay for
his medical expenses? I’m not the one responsible for the ident. Why should I pay for it?”
