Chapter 792
They were two people from different worlds.
Lillian gradually came to her senses. She could naturally understand Rebecca’s intention at themoment. The latter just wanted to feel smug by trampling on her.
After all, when she was dating Callum, Rebecca had never held her
tongue. She even knew that Rebecca had talked behind her back saying that she would be dumped byCallum sooner or later.
When she returned to the institute and Rebecca knew that she had really broken up with Callum,Rebecca didn’t forget to gloat. “Look, I already knew that people like Callum would never be sincerewith you.”
Was it not sincere?
Lillian didn’t think so. When they were dating, she could feel that Callum really loved her at that time.
However, she didn’t have a strong family background and could not give him what he wanted.
“But unfortunately, Lillian and Callum broke up. Otherwise, Lillian would have been Mrs. Chairman ofWhite Maple Group,” Rebecca said gloatingly.
She just wanted to hurt Lillian with her words a few more times.
Lillian looked at Rebecca coldly and then suddenly smiled. “If you really are so sorry for me, you can goto Callum and set me up with him so that you don’t have to pity me in front of our colleagues every day,making it seem that it’s my fault for not getting back together with Callum.”
As soon as Lillian said this, Rebecca’s expression changed immediately. Other colleagues also cameback to their senses and immediately shot Rebecca with strange looks.
Rebecca felt a little uncomfortable. She could only smile and return to her office.
Lillian went back to her seat and took out her phone. She had wanted to send a message to the blinddate tonight, confirming the time and place for the night’s meeting.
However, in the end, she couldn’t help but search for news about Callum. Five years had passed.During the five years, she had deliberately stopped

thinking about everything about Callum and watching his news because she wanted to forget abouthim.
Yet now, she realized that maybe she hadn’t completely let him go.
Some of Callum’s latest news popped up on the web page. Indeed, as Rebecca said just now, Callumhad come to Strico, while Madeline was next to Callum. The eldest daughter of the Tall family wasfound five years ago and had returned to the Tall family.
At that time, it was the help of the Tall family that made Callum successfully regain control of the Whitefamily and White Maple Group. She had thought that Callum might get married to Madeline soon afterhe broke up with her, but she didn’t expect that after five years, Callum and Madeline were not marriedand had just been dating.
The netizens had been wondering how long it would take them to get married.
Lillian looked at Callum quietly in the news photos.
He was dressed in a black suit, and his young-looking face was still as beautiful as before, although helooked much more mature now. Meanwhile, Madeline, who was standing next to him, was gorgeousand enchanting. She wore a red tight dress, highlighting her curvaceous figure.
They were perfectly matched in front of the camera.
“He’s… finally got what he wanted, huh?” Lillian smiled gently. There was bitterness and sadness in hersmile. He had become a thing of the past for her.
After closing the webpage, Lillian sent a message to the person she was going to meet that night. Forher, the most important thing now was to go on blind dates
Perhaps she could find someone she liked during the process.
In the evening, Lillian arrived at the square downtown at the appointed time and met her blind date thatday. Jerick Backman was said to be the department head of a large company.
“Mom has introduced me to someone who is way out of my league.” Lillian couldn’t help but sigh in herheart when she met the man.
Jerick was dressed in a suit and leather shoes and was wearing gold-rimmed glasses. He lookedgentle and handsome. Her mother said that he was two years older than her, 35 years old, but heseemed to be

just over 30.
“Hello, Ms. Quinn. Nice to meet you,” he said.
“Hello.” Lillian smiled.
After exchanging some polite words about their first meeting, they arrived at a restaurant.
Lillian had wanted to find a random restaurant to eat and chat. However, the restaurant Jerick hadbrought her to was not cheap. It had a good dining environment as well.
“Ms. Quinn, you may order whatever you want,” he said politely.
Lillian thought for a while and ordered some cheap dishes. Jerick’s eyes. flashed for a moment, but hedidn’t say anything and added some more dishes.
“Ms. Quinn, why are you going on a blind date? Do you think you have to find someone to marrybecause you’re old?” Jerick asked.
“It’s not like I have to find someone to marry. I mean, you can still live without getting married. I justdon’t want my family to worry about me, to think there is something wrong with me. If I can meet theright person on a blind date, it’ll be nice too, right?” Lillian said.
“I see,” Jerick murmured. “Then we’re kind of in the same boat. I don’t want my family to worry as well.”
“That’s great. We are indeed in the same boat,” Lillian said.
Jerick smiled.
After the meal, the two of them had a good conversation. Although they were in different fields, theycould find some common topics.
For example, they both liked watching romantic TV series, and they were watching the same TV seriesat the moment.
“Do you think it’s strange for a man to like watching this kind of romantic TV series?” Jerick askedembarrassedly.
“What’s so strange about it? Many scripts of romantic TV series are
written by men,” Lillian replied.
However, after knowing that Jerick had never formally dated a girlfriend, she was really surprised. Afterall, the man in front of her was not bad-looking. He had a good career and had a house and a car. Itwas enough to surprise her that he was her blind date that day.
“He didn’t even have a girlfriend before. Are the women around him all

blind?” she wondered.
“You really never had a girlfriend?” she asked.
“Yeah,” he replied.
“Is it because you have high requirements?”
