Chapter 962
“Callum, why did you do this to me? I might have separated you and Lillian in the past, but I alsohelped you regain the White family. Isn’t that enough?” Madeline questioned Callum back then.novelbin
The man looked at her indifferently as if she meant nothing to him.
“Are you being so cruel to me and the Tall family because of Lillian? But aren’t you two separated now?She is not someone worthy of your love at all, is she? You have done so much for her. But what abouther? What did she do for you? She has never believed you at all, has she?”
In a split second, Callum’s subordinates forcefully pressed Madeline to the ground. She feltembarrassed and ashamed as they pressed her cheeks against the cold and rough ground.
Callum gave her a condescending look with his cold eyes, which scared her.
“Madeline, don’t mention Lillian in front of me again, or I will kill you!” Callum said coldly.
It seemed that the name was already taboo for him.
“Madeline, the law of the jungle in this world is incredibly simple. Initially, I was weak, and you werestrong, so I had to obey you completely. However, the situation has changed, and now I am powerfulwhile you are vulnerable. Therefore, you will have to endure the consequences. I will never let go ofthose who have harmed me,” Callum stated.
At that moment, Madeline felt consumed by jealousy. She hated Lillian more than Callum.
It was because Callum never forgave anyone who hurt him, except Lillian, who managed to move onand live a normal life despite hurting him. In fact, she was even pregnant with Callum’s baby!
“Does Lillian really deserve it? What does Lillian have that I don’t?” Madeline pondered.
At present, Madeline said icily, “I paid a lot to hire these people. They’re all well-known ruthlessmercenary men. They won’t show any mercy.”
As she spoke, she gestured toward the man next to Lillian.
The man immediately raised his hand and slapped Lillian in the face.
Lillian’s cheek became swollen all of a sudden, while Madeline was filled with joy. “Lillian, your life nowis in my hands. I can decide whether you live or die!”
Lillian widened her eyes in pain and warned, “If I die, you will be even more miserable when the policecatch you. We have grudges, Madeline, but we are not at the point of causing harm to each other’slives like this!”
Lillian tried to stay calm because she knew she and Rosalie were still under Madeline’s control. Shecouldn’t upset Madeline, especially since she was pregnant.
“Although we were once love rivals, I have now ended my relationship with Callum. Going forward, Ihave no intentions of maintaining any contact with him. From the very start, it was evident that his lovefor me wasn’t genuine. So, why are you concerned about me?”
But after Lillian spoke, Madeline started laughing and looked at Lillian as though she thought Lillianwas dumb. “Why does Callum have a crush on such an idiot like you? Do you know why I am notletting you go? Callum cared too much about you, so I retaliated against him in this way. It must have agood effect. I wanted to see what Callum would look like if he knew I killed you and the baby!”
Madeline became crazier as she talked more about it.
Lillian felt a chill run through her body as the realization hit her. Madeline wanted to kill her! “What doyou mean Callum cares too much about me? What do you mean?” Lillian was confused. Madelinelooked at Lillian with sarcasm. “Do you think Callum broke up with you solely to reclaim the Whitefamily?” Even before, she had always believed so, but it was only later that she truly realized thatCallum had always been doing it for Lillian.
“Isn’t it?” Lillian had a hard time expressing herself, feeling like her long-held beliefs were about to bechallenged.
“Callum’s two brothers plotted against you, and you were badly hurt. Eventually, Callum found you, butyou were close to death. He held you, knelt, and personally begged me to save you. You have no ideahow

desperate he looked at that moment. Sadly, you didn’t witness it.”
Lillian felt her nerves being pricked by every word that escaped Madeline’s lips. Lillian couldn’t help butthink, “Has this ever happened previously? Callum had never mentioned anything!”
“Later, I saved you and kept you safe temporarily. I moved you to the outskirts of Strico. However, Iwanted him to end his relationship with you from then on. Of course, the man I was interested in had tobe mine alone, so I poisoned him. I obtained a curse through a great effort from an old witch in thepast. I infused your blood into the curse and had Callum ingest it. Consequently, he would feel intensepain whenever he touched you, as if arrows pierced his heart.”
Madeline’s eyes gleamed with malice. Madeline revealed the truth to Lillian, not out of kindness butrather to witness her painful and regretful reaction.
“Lillian, whenever Callum touches you, he will experience intense pain as though his bones wereshattered. He made a deal with me and wanted me to remove the curse from his body so he could bewith you forever. However, you never believed that he would love you wholeheartedly. You didn’tbelieve he valued you above everything else in life!” Madeline said in a gloomy tone. Madeline wasjealous of Lillian. She couldn’t help but smile satisfyingly when she saw Lillian looking defeated.
Madeline continued, “Lillian, you’re such a fool. If you hadn’t been so foolish and had not pushedCallum away, it would have been quite challenging for me to capture you! Don’t worry. Callum willwatch the news on TV to know what happened to you today. I can’t wait to see his expression by then!”
Lillian’s face appeared pale, her eyes clouded with tears.
She was completely unaware of these! She never knew that Callum had done so much for her.
She had always thought that his career held greater importance in his life. To him, she was simply an
exciting addition to his life. It was good to have her, but if one day he must do something for the sake ofhis career, he could abandon her at will.
Little did she know, he really loved her.
