The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike novel Chapter 694

Chapter 694 

Amelia returned home and carefully placed Aiden on the bed. Her phone beeped, alerting her to a notification. She glanced at it and realized it was a news feed. 

Usually, she would not care about such a news feed. However, the news caught her attention, and she quickly grabbed her phone and rushed to open the link to the news. 

“T-This news is about Callum!” she exclaimed inwardly. 

The news announced that Callum had joined forces with the Tall family of Jacaster. Moreover, he had suddenly turned up at the shareholders’ meeting today and confiscated the power and rights of the White family. Following that, the police also arrested the first branch lady of the White family and her two sons. They were suspected of committing an 

intentional tort. 

At that point, it could be said that the White family’s first branch had lost everything. 

Meanwhile, Callum had become the ultimate winner of the competition. However, there was another rumor in the news that the White family and the Tall family planned to strengthen their ties by arranging a marriage of convenience. Their businesses and assets might even merge in the future. 

Amelia was shocked. She pondered, “The White Family will arrange a marriage of convenience with the Tall Family… Does that mean Callum will marry someone from the Tall Family? After all, if the two sons of the White family’s first branch end up in prison, Callum will be the only one who is eligible for the marriage of convenience. But if that is the case, what will happen to Lillian?” 

When Amelia thought of Lillian, she couldn’t help but feel nervous and worried. 

However, there was nothing she could do about it at that time. She finally called Rosalie. 

“Rosalie, I just read the news. It is said that Callum has appeared, and the White family is considering a marriage of convenience with the Tall family. Is it true?” Amelia asked hurriedly. 

Rosalie replied, “It’s true, at least for now. The news report should be true, 

10:14 

but I still have to meet Callum in person and ask him what is going on. As for this matter, please hide it from Lillian first. I’ve also told her parents to keep her in the dark until we figure out what’s happening.” 

“Okay. I get it!” Amelia replied. 

When Rosalie ended the call, she turned to look at Jonathan and said, “I want to see Callum in person and ask him what’s going on!” 

“But the current state of your body is not suitable for long-distance travel. It’s inconvenient no matter what kind of transportation you take,” Jonathan reminded her. 

“But… That’s Callum. He’s the one Lillian has been longing for and thinking of when she regained consciousness!” Rosalie anxiously stated. She had heard the news earlier than Amelia and knew it was true. 

Her thoughts were a mess. “The White family and the Tall family have a plan to merge their businesses. 

And typically, the safest way for a business merger is through a marriage of convenience! 

Furthermore, when Callum was with the “real” daughter of the Tall family, their behavior was indeed quite intimate. Madeline held Callum’s arm when she accompanied Callum to the shareholders’ meeting of White Maple Group!’ 

Jonathan couldn’t help but sigh when he saw how worried Rosalie was, “Lillian is always so important to you.” 

“If it weren’t for her, I wouldn’t be alive today!” Rosalie insisted. 

Jonathan’s gaze flickered slightly. He thought, “It’s true. If Lillian hadn’t been seriously injured back then, Rosie might not have come to ask me for help. Naturally, it would have been even more impossible for her to agree to marry me at that time.” 

“Okay. I’ll find a way to have Callum come to Strico so that you don’t have to travel back and forth between two cities,” Jonathan said. 

“What if he refuses to come to Strico?” Rosalie asked. 

“He will come, and even if he refuses, I will have someone tie him up and bring him to Strico,” he reassured her. 

As long as it was Rosalie’s wish, he would help her realize it! 

Rosalie did meet Callum two days later. However, the person who came with him to Strico was Madeline, the daughter of the Tall family.

Although Rosalie had seen Madeline’s photo before, she realized the lady was more beautiful than the photo when she saw her in person. Madeline seemed born with an enchanting and seductive aura, which could easily 

attract men’s attention. 

“But… Callum shouldn’t be attracted to her! I’ve seen his devotion to Lillian. Would the devoted and loyal Callum fall in love with Madeline? Either way, I need to hear his answer!” Rosalie exclaimed inwardly. 

“Ms. Tall. I’d like to have a few words with Callum alone. Is that okay?” Rosalie asked. 

“Excuse me, but there are no secrets between Callum and me. So, if you have something to say, just say it here, Mrs. Youngblood. I can listen to whatever Callum can hear.” Madeline sat next to Callum, smiling slightly. She was holding his hand and playing with his fingers casually. 

Meanwhile, Callum didn’t stop Madeline from doing whatever she was doing. 

Rosalie couldn’t help but squint her eyes when she saw that. Her anxiety began to intensify. “All right… Callum, I want to ask you how Lillian got injured back then?”
