Chapter 621 A Thorn in Your Side

Calista put down her fork."Why do you think I'm upset? Did you cheat on me or something? Are you feeling guilty?"Lucian spoke up before she could finish. Any hesitation would be seen as an admission of guilt."No.""Oh," Calista murmured.Neither of them spoke following the response. Although the silence stretched on for no longer than a few seconds, it created a relatively awkward atmosphere."Callie …" Lucian was so flustered that he spoke to break the silence. "I …"Explaining what was happening in the photo would mean revealing who Cailyn was. That would, in turn, bring his health issues to light."I haven't done anything to hurt you," Lucian said softly. He sounded serious and genuine. It was like he was trying to get Calista to believe him. "I'll come to Pelduin to pick you up after the competition."He would explain everything to her then. She had the right to know if his condition didn't improve within the month.Whether they got married was then her choice to make.

Chapter 622 Forgetting Her

Lucian was about to take another swig when Paul snatched the glass out of his grip, spilling alcohol on their hands."You already have one foot in the grave. Stop drinking."Paul looked at the bartender and said, "Get him a glass of milk."The man looked up and swept a glance at him."You're acting like a woman in her mid-40s."Despite the comment, Lucian accepted the milk from the bartender and took a sip."I have something I need your help with."After Lucian explained his plan to Paul, the latter thought about it for a moment before suggesting, "Why not go with a beauty trap?"A beauty trap?There was undoubtedly a hidden agenda to Paul's dubious idea. Paul must've been trying to create conflict between him and Calista. It would allow Paul to step in. What a conniving bastard!"Thank you for helping me out. You've always been a true brother to me growing up. I can't believe you're going to such lengths for me. I owe you one.""Hah." Paul flashed him an insincere smile whi

He sent a message half an hour ago."I'm on my way to the airport.""Are you there yet?" she replied. Someone from the organizing committee arrived just as she sent the message."To prevent interference during the competition, phones need to be handed in per the rules. This is to avoid privacy leaks.

Chapter 624 Giving Him an Ultimatum

Lucian stood by the window, his hair tousled by the cold wind of a March night. Yet he seemed unaware as he remained rooted to the spot. The unlit cigarette he held was deformed from his constant fidgeting.His usually meticulously ironed clothes now clung to him in a wrinkled state. It betrayed their considerable value. Upon closer inspection, there were dark, dried bloodstains on them.Yara had originally planned to meet Lucian at the airport today. But he was nowhere to be found when she arrived. As time was running out, she gave him a call only to learn that he was at the hospital.He had gone to get Calista a gift when he encountered a couple arguing. A wedding photo frame had been tossed down from the upper floors. Though it was merely from the third floor, it was angular and sharp.

Chapter 625 Devotion

Calisa had just returned to the hotel when she received a video call from Lucian. She answered it while stretching her sore neck."Yara said you had food poisoning. How are you doing? How bad is it?""It's nothing serious. I'll be discharged from the hospital in two days. I'm sorry that I can't come see you now."Since Yara had been with Lucian when she called Calista, he knew the content of their conversation. So there was no need to worry about inconsistencies in his story.However, he didn't want to lie to her, especially when she was looking at him with concern in her eyes. There was a lump in his throat that left him speechless.Calista didn't doubt Yara's flawed rhetoric at all. Lucian quickly changed the subject."How did the competition go today?""I was a little nervous."Calista's voice took on a much more cheery tone when her expertise was brought up. There was so much she could talk about."There were so many people in the audience. They're all big names in the fie

Chapter 627 Don't Set Him on Me

Yara was confused by what she had heard and followed him in a stupor. "What's all this talk about 100 thousand dollars?""Mr. Northwood gave me 100 thousand dollars to keep you on watch tonight," Timothy said.Yara sneered and shoved his hand off her shoulder. Then, she turned on her heel and walked back out. He had come to keep her under control for the sake of 100 thousand dollars. What if someone were to offer him 200 thousand? Would he sell her off? Timothy grabbed her. "Didn't you say you would let Lucian explain the situation to Calista? Who should be the one to handle this? You or him?"Of course, Lucian had to be the one to take responsibility. He had caused the trouble, so it was his debt to pay. He had to be the one to admit it.

Even though she hated Lucian, she had to admit that he and Calista looked perfect together.Yar

Chapter 628 Why Not Stay the Night

Lucian always called on Timothy whenever he needed something dealt with. What difference was there between him and a dog?Timothy shrugged and gave Lucian a helpless look. He then went up to the front desk with his passport.Yara asked Calista, "Are you staying with me or a certain someone over there? I'm getting three rooms if you want to stay with him." Calista's eyes rolled to the back of her head when Lucian was mentioned. The receptionist recognized Calista as a guest of their hotel who participated in the competition."I'm sorry. We only have two rooms left available."Yara instantly turned her attention to Timothy and repeated the receptionist's words through gritted teeth."Two rooms left? Are you following the script of some kind of soap opera? You should change it up. What's the point of keeping two rooms vacant? To separate the men and the women? You should've kept one room vacant instead. Then nothing could go wrong."Of course, he would be a heartless lawyer with n

Chapter 629 Don't Be So Impulsive

"She reminds me of past you. You were just as aggressive when those debt collectors forced you into a corner. You were ready to fight for your life," Lucian said.Calista had been so young then. Her personality made her go all in with pride rather than hang her head in shame after years of conflict with Nikolette and her mother. After learning that Zachary had taken out millions worth of high-interest loans in her name, she stayed resolute that she would make them pay as long as she lived. She fought back with everything she had.It had been a long time since then. But the fear never went away whenever Lucian brought it up."I don't want you to be that impulsive ever again.""I … wasn't being impulsive," Calista said.Before confronting them head-on, she had spent hours huddled in the dark, damp basement, carefully considering her situation. Given the low average wage in Capeton, she wouldn't be able to cough up the money even if she stopped eating for several lifetimes. Howev
