The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 565

However, sometimes it turned out that everything could change in an instant. It was the same when they had

broken up then.

The only difference was he had been the one who asked for the breakup, whereas she was the one who asked to

leave this time.

“Jonathan, it’s really time to forget you this time,” Rosalie murmured.

The next day, Lillian went to Rosalie’s rented house after work.

Although they had talked over the phone the day before and Rosalie said that everything was fine, Lillian still felt a

little worried.

Nevertheless, when she arrived at the parking lot and was about to go into her car, a figure was blocking her way.

“You’re Lillian, right?” the person asked.

back

The person was a woman, dressed in a new suit of the latest fall collection of a luxury brand. She had exquisite

makeup on. She was looking at Lillian arrogantly.

Lillian was stunned. “Who are you?”

“I’m Josephine, Callum’s future partner in our marriage of convenience. I heard that you have been with Callum for

a while, so I’ve been wanting to meet you. How about we go somewhere to talk?” Although it’s an inquiry,

Josephine’s tone was more like a command that could not be refused. There was disdain in her eyes.

Lillian raised her eyebrows. “Marriage of convenience? Why hasn’t Callum mentioned anything/about this to me

before? So the situation right now is regarded as my love rival coming to me and protesting? Wait a minute. Maybe

this woman can’t be considered as a love rival yet,” Lillian was reasoning in her heart.

Lillian’s head was filled with various ideas about Josephine. For a moment, she was ignoring Josephine, who was

standing there.

Josephine had never been so angry. If it weren’t for her plan for the future, she would have turned around and left

now. She wouldn’t waste time on Lillian, who looked like an ordinary woman.

She couldn’t believe that Callum actually had his eyes on Lillian!

“Do you want to talk or not?” Josephine was getting irritated.

“Sure. Let’s just go to the cafe at the corner here, but it’s on you.” Lillian didn’t want to split the bill with Josephine,

who was going to find trouble with her. She was not going to help Josephine save money.

Josephine’s disgust toward Lillian became stronger. She felt that Lillian was really an incompetent person. She even

wanted to fuss about the price of a cup of coffee.

“Got it. Lead the way then,” Josephine uttered.

Lillian shrugged and led the way ahead. Anyway, she intended to find out what was going on with this marriage of

convenience.

When they arrived at the cafe, Lillian ordered herself a cup of expensive coffee. Then, Josephine said in an arrogant

tone, “I’ve run a check on you already. You are just a designer from a small design institute, and you have an

ordinary family background. Don’t you think you don’t deserve Callum?”

“It’s okay, I guess. If I really think so, do you think I can still date him?” Lillian’s lips twitched.

Josephine choked on Lillian’s words. “You…”

“By the way, what is your family background? What does your family do?” Lillian asked. It’s best to know about

Josephine

and herself so that she could win against Josephine in any circumst

“I’m the eldest daughter of Fairmount Properties. I’m also the partner who’s acknowledged by the White family for

our marriage of convenience. Soon, I will get engaged to Callum and then marry him. If you are sensible enough,

it’ll be better to leave him quietly. Don’t embarrass yourself when the time comes.” Josephine raised her chin while

explaining.

Lillian blinked after listening to Josephine’s introduction and took out her phone. She began searching for Fairmount

Properties.

Looking at Lillian, Josephine felt really humiliated.

“I she trying to tell me that she hasn’t heard of Fairmount Properties before?” she yelled internally.

Josephine felt really embarrassed of herself. Initially, she thought that Lillian would be astonished to hear about

Fairmount Properties. On the contrary, Lillian actually searched for the company online.

After reading the introduction to Fairmount Properties on the internet, Lillian smiled. “I know your background now.

But as you said, you are the marriage partner determined by the White family and will be engaged to Callum. That

means you’re

not engaged yet, right? And Callum never acknowledged you as his marriage partner before. Therefore, there’s no

relation at all between you and Callum.”

Lillian had never believed that Callum would marry Josephine. Inexplicably, she had a kind of trust in him.

“Perhaps this is the power of love,” Lillian thought.

Josephine gritted her teeth and stared at Lillian. She was right about the marriage. Josephine had discussed it with

some members of the Tall family and the White family only. Callum had never agreed to it!

“And I… Ahem!” Lillian coughed a bit. She raised her chin and grinned at Josephine. “I’m Callum’s girlfriend, the

official one! So Ms. Tall, don’t you think it’s ridiculous for you to come here to order me to leave Callum?”

Josephine snorted coldly. She felt that Lillian was deliberately acting, so she went straight to the point, asking, “How

much money do you want in order to leave Callum?”

Lillian’s eyes lit up. “Damn it! I didn’t expect that one day I would encounter the scene in a or TV series where

the girlfriend was dismissed using money. However, I’m the one who’s being dismissed right now,” she exclaimed

inwardly.

“You’re giving me money?” Lillian asked.

Josephine mistakenly thought that Lillian’s eyes were shining because of the mention of money, so she secretly

laughed at Lillian in her heart. “She is indeed a greedy woman!” Josephine thought.

“Is 1 million dollars enough?” Josephine asked directly.

However, Lillian was disgusted by the offer. “Only 1 million dollars? Callum is worth only 1 million dollars? At

present, 1 million dollars is only enough to buy a house in Strico. It must be less than 1,000 square feet at that.”

“Then, how much do you want?” Josephine gritted her teeth.

“Isn’t it popular to dump tens of millions of dollars nowadays?” Lillian said.

Josephine almost fainted. Lillian was not the kind of weak and dumb woman she had imagined. She was an

extremely greedy

woman.

Even if all the cash flow of the Tall family was gathered, they couldn’t get tens of millions of dollars in cash at once.

“Lillian, are you kidding me?” Josephine was fuming with rage. Her eyes with heavy makeup stared at Lillian

furiously. “Then, aren’t you humiliating me when you intended to dump 1 million dollars on me and ordered me to

leave Callum?” Lillian asked. “Of course, that’s if you really pay me the money and let me leave. There’s another

possibility though. You pretend to promise me the money and record our conversation. Later, you’ll find the chance

and let Callum listen to the recording, leading him to think that I’m a greedy woman and eventually break up with

me.”

As Lillian was speaking, she glanced at Josephine’s phone on the table. Nonetheless, the back of her phone was

facing upward while her screen was on the table’s surface, contrary to normal people placing their phones.

“I think Ms. Tall is planning for the second option, right?” Lillian asked.

Josephine’s body stiffened, and her face turned red.
