Just to prove that Callum was not joking, Jim took out his mobile phone and sent Callum’s number to Briar before saying, “Mr Lee, this is Mr. Finnegan’s private number.”
Everyone was confused and speechless.
Aurelia didn’t know why Callum was so possessive. It was obvious that he wanted to distance her from Briar. Afraid that Briar would be unhappy, Aurelia raised her head and told Callum seriously, “Briar and I are just good friends. You’re destroying our friendship!”
Unexpectedly, before Callum could speak, Briar said seriously, “Mr. Finnegan, I’m so glad you think this way! Aurelia was such a fool before. She foolishly gave so much to Liam, but in the end Liam still didn’t know how good she was. Now there is finally a man who is willing to treat her well. You have my back. If Sheridan Buddy has any problems, I will tell you the first time.”
Briar and Aurelia had known each other for the longest time, and he knew all about the mess between Aurelia and Liam. There was a reason why Aurelia became a tomboy, and it was because of Liam.
Aurelia was in a daze. When did she become a fool around Briar?
Callum was very satisfied with Briar’s words. When he heard Liam’s name, his eyes darkened. “Jim, send them back.”
“Yes, Mr. Finnegan.”
When the couple were the only ones left in the room, Callum exerted force and Aurelia, who was in a daze, fell into his arms. She sat on his lap without knowing how.
Aurelia blushed immediately at such an amorous posture. Not used to this kind of thing, she struggled to stand up.
Callum leaned close to her and whispered, “Who’s Liam?” This was the first time he heard the name, and he instantly thought of the man who had messaged her last time, calling her Aurelia and saying he missed her.
If he guessed correctly, Liam was the person who texted her.
“Huh?” Aurelia hadn’t responded yet.
The next moment, her mouth was blocked by the man.
He seemed to be angry, and his movements were rough and overbearing. Even she, who was skilled in martial arts, could not withstand his actions at this moment.
In the end, he pushed her directly onto the dining table. She was afraid that she would fall, so she could only climb onto his neck with her arms, weakly enduring his invasion.
After a long moment, the man said in a hoarse voice, “I take that back.”
“Hmm?” The woman buried in his arms responded softly and weakly.
He lowered his head, not knowing when the woman in his arms had become so charming. He had just realized that the seemingly reckless and carefree girl was so lovable. When he kissed her before, she would also blush and be shy. This time, he almost couldn’t hold back his desire.
“I said if you sleep with me, I’ll set you free. I take that back now.”
She didn’t expect that someone like Callum, who always kept his word, would go back on his word.
Callum continued to use his hands wantonly, his voice was hoarse. “You are such a darling.”
Darling? For real?
Aurelia wanted to laugh out loud. This was the first time she heard someone call her darling. Callum must be insane!
“If you sleep with me, I will give you everything you want.”
What did she want? If it were before, she would have brought up divorce again without hesitation.
But recently, for some reason, she thought about divorce less and less.
She shook her head. To be honest, without the thought of divorce, she didn’t know what she wanted for the moment.
Her shaking head was, in Callum’s opinion, a denial.
Aurelia suddenly remembered the time when he humiliated her in the room on the cruise ship and said she was not worth 100 million. She hugged the dishonest man intimately, pretending to be sad and saying, “I remember that time you said I was not worth 100 million. What else can you give me? Hmm?”
The man laughed in silence. She still held a grudge! He raised his head and pecked her lips. “You are not worth 100 million.”
As expected, seeing the anger in her eyes, Callum showed a rare tenderness in his eyes and touched her head. “But you are worth hundreds of millions, one billion, and even 10 billion… How about giving them all to you?”
Aurelia was stunned. What did Callum mean by giving her 10 billion? Could she understand that he was going to give her 10 billion just to sleep with her?
“Be good. If what you want is money, I’ll give you 10 billion, okay?” Money was the thing he cared least about. Since she liked it, he didn’t mind giving her more.
Besides, they were a couple now. He was willing to give her all his money.
Was she a gold digger in his eyes? Aurelia felt an inexplicable bitterness in her heart, and when the amorousness faded, she pushed Callum away with force.
Doubt flashed across the man’s eyes, and the next moment the girl raised her head proudly and defended herself domineeringly, “Callum, not everyone loves money as much as you think. Maybe in your eyes, I can be measured by money. You think you can buy everything you want with money. But I have pride. If I don’t like you, even if you give me 100 billion, I won’t sleep with you!”
“If I like you, I will sleep with you even if you are penniless! Sorry to disappoint you. If you don’t understand me, then there is no need for us to continue living together!”
If she really loved his money, she would not take only a small amount from the living expenses he gave her, let alone file for divorce from him.
Aurelia would never know how attractive she was in Callum’s eyes at this moment. Of course, it was not because she didn’t love money, but because of her pride.
This time, the man just laughed out loud.
Aurelia was still young after all. In addition to not understanding his thoughts, she was also irritated by his sudden laughter and thought he was looking down upon her. In order to prove her truthfulness, she glared at him fiercely and said, “What are you laughing at? Let’s go to the courthouse right now and file for divorce. I will never bother you again in the future… Umm!”
The rest of her words were blocked by the man’s passionate kiss.
He had never seen a girl as special as Aurelia, who could be cold, hot, rude, gentle, charming, shy, and most of all, cute.
After finally breaking free from his clutches, she angrily asked, “What are you doing?”
Callum ignored her struggles and hugged her again, patting her back and comforting her in a deep voice, “Don’t worry. I won’t force you in the future unless you want to.”
His assurance made her feel relieved, but also upset, because he didn’t even apologize for what he had just said.
The girl snorted coldly, picked up her backpack and prepared to leave.
