The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 793

“Well, I don’t think I have met that kind of woman who has really touched my heart.”

Indeed, that feeling was hard to come by, and Lillian had a deep understanding of it. Although she liked all kinds of

handsome celebrities, the only one who really touched her heart was Callum.

After that, she had never met anyone who could touch her heart again.

“I get it. It’s hard to find someone who can really touch your heart, and it’s especially hard to find them again after

you’ve met them,” Lillian said. Jerick was stunned for a moment. “It seems that you have met that person?”

“Yeah, I have met one,” she said frankly, although the person in front of her was her blind date. However, as they

spoke, she felt as if she was talking to a friend.

“I see. What kind of person is he?” Jerick asked curiously.

“He’s a very beautiful man. He’s beautiful, good-looking, and obedient.” Speaking of Callum, Lillian smiled slightly.

Even if they had broken up, she would only remember their best memories.

Perhaps it was because Jerick was approachable, or perhaps she was affected by Callum’s, visit to Strico that day.

She needed someone to talk

1.

Lillian couldn’t help but order a bottle of wine, and she drank while talking.

Jerick listened quietly. After some time, when he saw that Lillian had drunk a little too much, he pressed her hand

and said, “Stop drinking. Otherwise, you will be really drunk.”

“It’s actually not bad to be drunk,” Lillian muttered.

“It’s not good to be drunk in front of a man you just met for the first time. Aren’t you afraid that I will do something

bad?” Jerick asked.

Lillian smiled. “If you really wanted to do something bad, you wouldn’t have said that.”

Nevertheless, she didn’t drink anymore. After all, if she got drunk and went home later, she might have to explain

herself to her parents

tomorrow.

When it was time to settle the bill, Jerick offered to pay, but Lillian insisted on splitting the bill. “We are not boyfriend

and girlfriend yet. We don’t even know if our blind date is a success. There is no reason for you to pay the bill.”

“Men should pay the bill,” Jerick said.

“But there’s no law that says you should. If you are my boyfriend and you pay the bill, then I will feel at ease. It’s

better to start with splitting the bill first.”

Jerick said, “Aren’t you afraid that we will never be boyfriend and

girlfriend? Do we have to split the bill every time we come out for dinner together in the future?”

“Then if we can become friends in the future, we can treat each other too,” Lillian said.

“Friends?” Jerick wondered. His eyes flickered, and he didn’t refuse Lillian’s request anymore.

When they left the restaurant, Jerick wanted to send Lillian home. “You’ve been drinking and you’re not fit to drive.”

Lillian thought he was right, so she said, “I’ll have to trouble you, then.”

“Wait for me here. I’ll drive the car over,” Jerick said.

“Okay,” Lillian replied. When Jerick went to the parking lot, she was standing by the roadside. The night breeze

made her a little uncomfortable. She ran to the trash can next to her and vomited.

She vomited for a long time, and when she was almost done, she tried to rummage through her bag for a tissue in

a daze.

She looked through her bag for a long time, but she couldn’t find any tissues.

Just then, someone handed her a handkerchief.

“Thank… you,” Lillian said with blurry eyes. She took the handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth without

thinking about it. After wiping, she suddenly realized that this was not a tissue.

“How about I give it back to you after washing it?” She raised her head. She had thought it was Jerick who handed

her the handkerchief, but she didn’t realize it until then.

What caught her eyes was a familiar face that she would see from time to

time in her dreams over the past five years.

It had been five years. Her impression of him remained the same as five years ago. Only today did she search for

his news and see what he looked like now.

Lillian looked at the man in front of him, who was in a suit and leather shoes. His hair was slicked back, revealing his

full forehead, which also made his beautiful face look more three-dimensional.

Time had been so kind to him that there were hardly any signs of aging visible.

It wasn’t until she burped that the silence was broken. “I-It’s been a long time…” She had wanted to say it in a calm

voice, but she was a little tongue-tied after drinking.

“You drank too much,” he said, narrowing his eyes.

“It’s a bit too much indeed.” She tried to open her eyes wide as if she wanted to see the man in front of her more

clearly.

“Is the man today… your boyfriend?” Callum asked upon hesitation. “Boyfriend?” Lillian suddenly smiled lightly.

Because she was drunk, her smile made her look a little silly. “He’s my blind date… He’s good, though… We just

met for the first time today, but… we had a good chat.”

Lillian spoke intermittently, then stood up slowly and looked at him with a somewhat dazed gaze.

She had tried so hard to forget about him, yet he appeared in front of her and destroyed her peace.

“This is the first time you met this man? Do you know how dangerous it is to get drunk in front of the man you first

met?” Callum said in a furious

tone.

He was so angry that she easily got drunk in front of other men and even more annoyed that she seemed to have a

good impression of that man.

“Dangerous? Nah, he’s fine. I will live well,” Lillian murmured. “Callum, I… have already forgotten about you, so

don’t worry. Even if you’ve come to… Strico, I won’t bother you either… I won’t destroy your relationship with your

girlfriend.”

Callum’s face was cold. At that moment, every word of her stabbed him like a needle.

He had arrived in Strico that day and driven to the vicinity of her institute. He had just wanted to take a look at her

from a distance.

10:33

At that time, he had said to himself to take just one glance. He had just wanted to take a look.

However, in the end, he had driven all the way to the square downtown following her. He had watched her enter

the restaurant with a man and then couldn’t help appearing in front of her when he saw her vomit because she was

drunk.
