Chapter 821
“Now, you have gotten the White family and lived the life you wanted. It also proves that your choice
is not wrong. Life is not hard for me. I have friends and family who love me. When I was suffering,
they
apanied me through those times. Now I’m back to my normal life. In the future, I will get
married, have children, and live an ordinary but happy life. So, I don’t hate you. I just want to move
on. Maybe we’ll smile at each other if we asionally meet each other on the street in the future
when we are old and surrounded by children and grandchildren. Wouldn’t that be nice?”
She spoke in a gentle voice, as if she were just telling a story. However, his heart was throbbing
with pain.
Herck of hatred only continued to deepen his pain.
He had always felt that being able to meet her and fall in love with her was the greatest blessing in
his life. She was so wonderful that she even gave him the greatest dignity when they broke up.
He wondered if they wouldn’t have ended up like if he had stopped her from leaving Strico back
then, and if he had not been so confident and had been better prepared.
“Lillian…” he murmured. He lowered his head slowly and couldn’t help but want to approach her
and touch her.
Just then, the doorbell rang.
At that moment, they were in the room of a hotel. As both of them were looking disheveled earlier,
he took her directly into a nearby hotel and checked into a room.
The doorbell seemed to pull Callum back from the trance just now. He took two steps backward in
embarrassment, then turned around and walked to get the door.
Outside the door stood Callum’s subordinate. He respectfully handed over two sets of clothes. “Mr.
White, these are the clothes you wanted, which were bought ording to the sizes you said.”
Callum took the clothes, walked to Lillian, and handed her one of the women’s clothes. “Go get
changed.”
“No need. I…”
Callum interrupted her, “Do you want to go back in such dirty clothes
and then be bombarded by your parents’ questions? If you are afraid of having something to do with
me, then you shouldn’t have entered the hotel room with me in the first ce. Don’t you think it’s a
little toote to try to avoid arousing suspicion now?”
Lillian pursed her lips and thought about her parents’ nagging, so she said, “I will transfer the money
for these clothes to youter.”
“No need,” he said.
“It’s better to be clear about the money,” said she.
Lillian went into the bathroom of the hotel to change clothes, while Callum stood rooted with his
head down and smiled bitterly.
He wanted to lure her into saying that she hated him, thinking that this might stop him from missing
her and made him give up all thought of getting back together with her.
This was because he no longer had the right to even touch her.
However, she still didn’t hate him.
“Haha… Haha…” Callum let out a low, dryugh, which sounded extremely depressing and full of
pain and self-mockery.
If she had hated him, maybe he would have stopped loving her so much. “Lillian… Lillian…” he
called out her name in a low voice.
They were so close physically, but he couldn’t really get close to her!
After a long time, the bathroom door opened. Lillian had put on the clothes given by Callum and
came out of the bathroom. Then she said to Callum, “Give me your QR code for payment. I’ll
transfer you the money.”
“As I said, no need to pay me,” he said.

“As I also said, we have nothing to do with each other now. So it’s better for us to be clear-cut in
money matters,” Lillian insisted.
They looked at each other, and the air seemed to be filled with depression.
Lillian bit her lips and said, “Callum, since we’ve broken up, I don’t want to owe you anything
anymore, so please don’t let me owe you, okay?” His body trembled slightly. Finally, he took out his
phone and showed her the QR code.
Lillian scanned the QR code and entered a figure.

After all, when the clothes were given to her earlier, there were still price tags on them, so she knew
the prices. At the thought of the prices, Lillian couldn’t help but feel distressed again. The set of
outfits she was wearing cost her two months’ sry in total.
However, she still had to pay the money so that she could feel rxed.
After transferring the money, Lillian put away her phone and reached out to Callum. “By the way, I
heard that you are about to marry Ms. Tall. Congrattions! I hope both of you can grow old
together!”
Callum’s face changed slightly as he said in a hoarse voice, “You’re wishing me well?”
“Yeah.” At least, she still hoped that he could be truly happy even though she had broken up with
him.
He stared at her outstretched hand with aplicated look. After a long time, he finally reached out
to shake her hand.
He didn’t want to let go of her, even though such a handshake was a great pain for him.
His fingers wrapped around her hand tightly, and his face turned pale.
Even Lillian noticed something was wrong with Callum. “What’s the matter? You look…”
He suddenly let go of her hand, stumbled back a step, and gasped. “I’m fine.”
Lillian looked at him suspiciously. Apart from his pale face, there seemed to be nothing wrong with
him, so she said nothing more. Then she turned around and walked out of the room.
Callum stayed alone in the room, and then he put his hand that had just shaken her hand in front of
him. He looked down gently and fixed his eyes on the still-trembling hand.
He thought, “Has even touching her be a luxury? Am I going to live like this for the rest of my
life?”
When she walked out of the room just now, he even wanted to stop her and asked her to give him
more time.
As long as she was willing to give him some more time, he would definitely find a way to solve all
the problems and give her a future. But he still couldn’t bring himself to say it.
No matter what, he knew he couldn’t drag her into the mess again. He

could not repeat the same mistakes he made back then. For him, the most important thing was that
she was safe and sound.
Callum picked up the clothes and went into the bathroom to clean himself out of his mess.
In the bathroom, it seemed that her smell still lingered, which made him feel wistful.
