Chapter 981
It was because it was their child.
After all, he still cared about this child.
When the car arrived at the best maternity hospital in Jacaster, Callum carried Lillian out of the car. In the hospital,
doctors and nurses were already waiting. after receiving the notification.
Lillian was taken directly into the consulting room for a checkup, while Callum stood outside the consulting room,
still holding the same phone that Lillian had been gripping tightly earlier.
He couldn’t believe how much those photos meant to her. She had spent the entire afternoon running around
different phone repair shops just to retrieve those pictures.
“Are those her memories?” he thought.
Callum felt a complex mix of emotions.
Suddenly, the phone rang, displaying the word “Mom” on the screen. He knew it was a call from Lillian’s mother.
After a moment of hesitation, he still answered the call. “Mrs. Quinn, is that you? I’m Callum.”
On the other end of the phone, Abigail sounded surprised. “You… Why are you answering the phone? Where’s
Lillian?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“She is feeling unwell, so I brought her to the hospital. The doctor is examining her right now,” Callum said.
“What?” Abigail’s shocked voice came through the phone. She hurriedly asked Callum for the hospital’s address and
quickly ended the call.
Callum put away the phone and leaned against the wall, staring at the device in his hand. He murmured to himself,
“Lillian, what should I do with you?” “One month? Should I let her stay with me for this month, only to part ways
afterward? But after spending a month with her, could I really let her go again? Or should I just accept it now,
smoothly being with her, perhaps that was the best option. But does she truly love me? Or is it just because she
heard the truth from Madeline, feeling guilty and wanting to give the child a complete family, that she came back to
me? I-If she doesn’t love me that much, could I really walk the rest of my life with her? If she is only doing this for
the child, to make up for her guilt…” he thought.
When Lillian’s examination results came out, both Stephen and Abigail also arrived at the hospital. Abigail anxiously
approached the doctor, asking, “Doctor, how is my daughter?”
“The patient is emotionally distressed, showing signs of threatened miscarriage.

She had experienced this condition before, so it’s a critical situation.”
Abigail nodded repeatedly, and Stephen walked to Callum. “I know Lillian misunderstood you before, causing you
distress. But no matter what, she is carrying your child now. Even if you don’t want to be with her again, please
don’t provoke her.”
Callum remained silent, not uttering a word.
Stephen didn’t say more either. He entered the ward with Abigail to see Lillian, while Callum took out his phone and
instructed his subordinate on the other end, “Take care of all the expenses for Lillian’s hospitalization, and find two
attentive caregivers…
After dealing with some matters, Callum left the hospital.
“Lillian… What exactly should I do with her?” he thought.
When Callum returned to the White residence, he saw his mother, whom he hadn’t seen in a long time, in the living
room.
She wore elegant and luxurious clothes, adorned with precious jewelry, as if she wanted everyone to know that she
was the mistress of the White family now.
To him, their relationship was neither good nor bad. They were more like partners than mother and son.
She gave him life and provided for his material needs, nurturing him with care. Even when the main family tried to
frame him, she fiercely protected him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOne could say that she helped him secure his current position.
However, she only saw him as a tool to help her rise again in life.
As for how much affection she had for his father, he had no idea. She once chose to be the other woman for a
wealthy life. Of course, her ambitions didn’t stop there. She went to great lengths to conceive him and then raised
him
single-handedly.
When he was young, the most common thing she said to him was, “You are a child of the White family, just like the
sons of the main family. You have the White family blood flowing in your veins. If you can’t inherit the White family
in the future, both of us will be wiped out by the main family. If you don’t want to die, you can only climb up, climb
up until your father lets you inherit the White family!”
Therefore, he had been climbing up all the time. He thought that was the greatest meaning of life.
It wasn’t until he met Lillian that he realized there could be another taste to life.
Perhaps, people were like this. The more they lacked, the more they wanted. He had always lived in the midst of
intrigue, so he was attracted to Lillian’s straightforwardness. In front of her, he didn’t need to speculate about her
intentions or thoughts.
