Rory had no choice but to return to the car and report the situation to the man in the back seat. Callum did not react. This was all within his expectations. Aurelia was always like this, in crowded places, wishing to completely hide their relationship.
Callum came to class for the first time after a two-month business trip. The classroom was packed again. Aurelia sat in the last row, staring intently at the man lecturing on the stage.
Everyone said Callum was indifferent, but that was not true. He could get angry, upset, and gentle. Just like a normal person, he had many emotions.
It was just that other people didn’t know this.
He was not even thirty years old this year, but he had a calm personality and a strong aura, more outstanding than his peers and even his seniors.
Callum was born to be unusual, who had been blessed with so many natural advantages.
“Aurelia, stand up and repeat what I just said.”
An indifferent voice suddenly called out. Aurelia stood up from her seat reflexively and winked at Larry next to her.
Larry lowered his head and whispered, “Mr. Finnegan talked about fixed investment and risk prediction…”
Aurelia smiled, a sly look flashed across her eyes, and she cleared her throat. “Mr. Finnegan, you just talked about fixed investment and risk prediction, and how to…” While she was answering the question, Callum had already walked down from the stage.
Wherever he walked, there would be a lot of commotion. Some girls even took out their phones to secretly take photos of him from behind or take photos with him.
The distinguished man finally stood next to Aurelia, and Larry quickly shut up and pretended to be reading a book.
As soon as Larry stopped, she couldn’t answer. “And the rest… I didn’t understand.”
Callum knocked on her desk and said coldly, “Stand on the podium and listen to my lecture carefully!”
Tsk… Why did he wear a stern face? With such a sour expression, he was like two different people when he was hugging her in bed at night!
Aurelia made a face at his back and followed Callum’s steps obediently.
Finally, she stopped not far from Callum, rolled her eyes, and while he was asking the students to discuss a problem, she whispered, “Mr. Finnegan, can I ask you out for dinner after class?”
Callum paused while flipping through the textbook and cast a warning look at the playful woman.
Aurelia pretended not to notice and continued, “Mr. Finnegan, my period ends today!”
Callum suddenly walked up to her. “How about now?”
Seeing Callum standing in front of Aurelia, the students in the audience immediately started talking, “What are they talking about? Look at Aurelia’s smile, it’s so wanton!”
“Oh, my prince charming, I want to stand on the podium too!”
“How shameless Aurelia is! How dare she keep flirting with Mr. Finnegan? Isn’t she afraid that Mr. Finnegan will kick her out of Evercrest?”
Aurelia was still confused, “What do you mean?”
“If you say one more word, I’ll take you home right now!”
Knowing that he was decisive and would do what he said, Aurelia immediately shut up.
Seeing that the girl had behaved herself, Callum breathed a sigh of relief without leaving a trace. She dared to seduce him in front of so many students. Just wait and see how he would deal with her when he got home tonight!
After class, Aurelia caught up with Callum. “Callum, are you going to the company?”
“Yes, you want to come along?” Callum stopped and asked.
“No, go do your thing. What time do you think you’ll get off work?”
Aurelia was acting very weird today. Callum’s eyes turned dark. “I’m going to the party at six o’clock. I’ll definitely finish early and go home in the evening.”
Six o’clock? “Okay, bye, Callum.”
Then she ran away.
Callum watched her briskly run away, his eyes darkened, thinking her period had ended.
At about 3 p. m., Briar threw her phone in front of Aurelia and said, “Your husband is going to a party with another woman!”
Briar opened a group chat on his phone. A girl named Laura just sent a message, and the people in the group chat went crazy. “I’m going to get my hair done now. I’ll be there with Callum at six o’clock.”
So dramatic. Wasn’t it just a dinner party with Callum? Why was Laura so high-profile?
Aurelia used Briar’s phone and texted directly. “I remember Mr. Finnegan had something to do in the evening.”
By the time Briar saw it, Aurelia had already sent the message.
Soon, more people came to ask Briar.
“Briar, did your brother tell you that?”
“Mr. Lee, how do you know? Are you with Mr. Finnegan?”
“Can I be Mr Lee’s female companion tonight?”
It was too late for Briar to withdraw. He glared at Aurelia and said, “You’re going to get me in trouble!”
Aurelia held the phone and said to Briar. “Wait a minute.”
Laura quickly replied to Briar. “I just called Callum. He’s free tonight, and he said he would definitely go with me.”
Aurelia gritted her teeth and handed the phone back to Briar. “I have to go now. I have something to do.”
Ignoring the doubts of several other people, she left the school.
At 6 p. m.
Aurelia took out her phone and sent a message to Callum. “Honey, Sunset Hotel, Room 1208. I’m waiting for you!”
The man who was walking to the underground parking lot at the company saw this message and his eyes suddenly darkened. Before he could reply to the message, the other party said, “This opportunity is rare and will never come again.”
The threat was obvious.
His deep gaze fell on the car for less than half a minute, and he told Rory, who was about to drive, “Go to the Sunset Hotel.”
Rory was about to say it was time to go to the dinner party, but after thinking it over, he decided to keep quiet. “Yes, Mr. Finnegan.”
The moment Callum’s car pulled up to the Sunset Hotel, he knew something was wrong.
If he guessed correctly, there were reporters hiding in the corners around him!
The man calmly stepped into the Sunset Hotel. The hotel lobby manager saw Callum suddenly appear and hurriedly trotted over to greet him. “Mr. Finnegan, good evening!”
Callum nodded lightly, then went straight to the elevator and strode over.
His steps were a bit hurried.
“Mr. Finnegan, which floor?” The manager prepared to press the elevator button.
“1208.”
“Mr. Finnegan, the elevator is here. I’ll take you up.”
“No need.” He walked into the elevator with a dignified step and closed the elevator door.
The moment the doorbell rang, the girl in the room was so nervous that her legs went weak.
Aurelia took several deep breaths before going over to open the door.
It turned out to be him standing outside the door!
The tension instantly disappeared without a trace, and Aurelia happily jumped into the man’s arms. “Callum!”
