The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike novel Chapter 824

Chapter 824 

“Why? Do you think I’ll do something inappropriate if I enter a hotel? As expected, people with dirty minds would always have filthy thoughts when they think of others,” Lillian replied without hesitation. 

Rebecca’s expression changed. “Lillian, are you insulting me? You have a lot of nerve saying that when you’re the one who did all those shameless things.” 

“Am I supposed to do nothing if someone is slandering me?” Lillian retorted coldly. 

“If you have nothing to do with Callum, why did you book a room? Why did you stay in the room for so long? Why did you 

you change your clothes and come out? It’s obvious that you’re his mistress, but you don’t want to admit it!” Rebecca replied. 

At this moment, many colleagues had gathered around because of her shouting. Although everyone didn’t say anything, some colleagues looked at Lillian with disapproving gazes. 

“It’s because my clothes were dirty. Even a blind person could tell that my clothes were stained based on the photo taken. Is there a problem if I go in and change my clothes before coming out? Besides, Callum was in the hotel lobby and didn’t go up at all. Otherwise, you can ask the hotel to show you the surveillance footage,” Lillian said with certainty. 

“You’re lying!” Rebecca immediately denied it. “He clearly went up the elevator with you and to his room. He wasn’t in the lobby at all.” 

Lillian looked at Rebecca with a sneer. “Oh, how surprising. You know about this very well. It’s like you saw it with your own eyes. Don’t tell me you took these photos and then posted them to the forum on purpose?” 

Rebecca’s face changed as soon as she heard this. 

“I… I’m just… I think it’s only right I do this,” Rebecca stammered but stared at Lillian with hatred. 

“Oh, you think so, huh? Then I think you need to apologize to me because you deliberately took photos and slandered me on the forum,” Lillian said sarcastically. 

At this moment, the colleagues around also looked at Rebecca with suspicion. Everyone clearly had made some speculations in their heads. Embarrassed and angry, Rebecca snapped, “Anyway, it’s not me. Lillian, 

you’re lying through your teeth! You’re someone’s mistress! Do you think you’re in the right? We’ll wait and see!” 

Lillian shrugged and couldn’t care less about petty people like Rebecca. Looking at her reaction, Lillian guessed that Rebecca was the one who took the photo and uploaded it on the forum. 

But what Lillian didn’t expect was that this matter started to spread online in the afternoon. 

Someone in the firm sent the news to a verified account known for 

gossip, and the owner of the account directly posted those two photos on the Internet. 

After that, the netizens revealed Lillian’s personal information and started cursing her online for being a homewrecker. Someone even obtained the hotel surveillance footage showing she and Callum had entered the same hotel room. 

So, Rebecca looked at Lillian smugly and gloated like she had won, “Look! There is no need for me to expose you. Many netizens have exposed your lies!” 

Lillian looked at the flood of criticisms online with a cold expression. 

According to those keyboard warriors, she was an evil homewrecker who destroyed people’s relationships. 

She didn’t care about their cursing. After all, it was nothing to her after experiencing a life-and-death situation. However, she was just worried that her parents would be affected by the negative news. 

When she got off work in the evening, a large group of reporters surrounded her as soon as she walked out of the design institute. They kept bombarding all kinds of tricky questions at her. 

“Ms. Quinn, are you a homewrecker?” 

“Do you know that Callum and Madeline are getting married?” 

“What did you do with Mr. Callum in the hotel room that day?” another asked. Even if Lillian had prepared for the worst in her heart, a sense of loneliness and helplessness assaulted her when faced with such a scene. 

At this time, who could help her? 

Who could help her deflect these questions, and who could pull her away from the encirclement of these reporters? 

At this very moment, a loud noise was heard in front of them. Several black cars suddenly stopped at the entrance of the building. Then, a 

group of men exited the car and rushed in front of the reporters and onlookers before separating them from Lillian. 

Lillian was completely dumbfounded and couldn’t figure out what was going on. 

Shortly after, another car drove in. A figure got out of the car and hurried towards her. 

Lillian looked at the person in front of him in a daze. It was Callum! 

He had appeared in front of her again, but this time, it was in a situation like this! 

“Doesn’t he know why I’m surrounded by these reporters? His appearance would only make things worse!” she thought. 

In no time, Callum reached Lillian. 

Lillian subconsciously wanted to step back, but he had firmly grabbed her hand with one of his. Then, he pulled her outside without saying a word. 

Lillian followed Callum passively. Her mind went blank, and she didn’t even know what to do now. All she heard was the voices of people talking and countless phones and cameras aimed at her.
