The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike novel Chapter 918

Chapter 918 

“Take responsibility? How are you going to take responsibility?” Stephen said angrily. 

“If I live, I will marry Lillian. If I die, the proceeds of my post-death inheritance will belong to Lillian.” Callum cut to the chase. 

Hearing that, the three members of the Quinn family were stunned. 

Lillian only felt that Callum’s words were weird. She thought, “No one would say they would assume responsibility and mention about their post-death arrangements. He sounds like he’ll drop dead at any 

moment.” 

“You are going to take responsibility?” Lillian asked. 

Callum raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Lillian. “Are you suggesting you take responsibility for me?” 

His words made Lillian speechless. 

Stephen calmed down a little because of Callum’s words. “Are you really willing to take responsibility?” “Yes!” Callum uttered firmly. 

Stephen looked at the man in front of him. At first, he was very optimistic about his daughter and thought that he could untrust his daughter to Callum. However, what happened later proved him wrong. Therefore, Stephen was considering whether he should still entrust his daughter to Callum. 

“If you had known better, you shouldn’t have done what you did. If you cared about Lillian, you wouldn’t have broken up with her before she was discharged from the hospital. Do you know how she got through in the hospital during that period?” Thinking of his daughter’s appearance at that time, Stephen felt sad. “Dad!” Lillian knew that what happened back then also caused her parents great sorrow. 

“I’m sorry,” Callum said. At that point, that was all he could say. 

“The Quinn family does not need your apology. That’s all for today. You can go back first!” Stephen said coldly. 

Callum slightly pursed his thin lips and turned to look at Lillian. “Lillian, I’ll go back first. One week. I just need one more week.” 

Lillian frowned. She didn’t understand what he was saying. 

Callum left the Quinn residence. Stephen looked at his daughter and said, “Callum is willing to take responsibility. What do you think?” 

“I don’t know,” Lillian said, feeling she was caught in a difficult position. 

“You don’t know?” Stephen suddenly raised his voice. “You even have a baby together, yet you say you don’t know?” 

Abigail also said, “Lillian, if you have anything to say in your heart, just tell us. No matter what, we are always on your side!” 

“I know getting married to Callum will be the best choice for our family and this child. If I have a child out of wedlock, I’m afraid the rumors in the neighborhood will be unpleasant in the future, and our family will also be disdained by others, but…” 

At that point, Lillian’s voice choked with sobs. “I am afraid that even if we decide to get married now because of this child, perhaps someday in the future, he will suggest for us to divorce because of another matter. I don’t have faith in him.” 

When she was in love with him,/she never thought that there would be a day when they would break up. 

However, reality had taught her a harsh lesson, telling her nothing in the world was impossible. 

Stephen walked up to his daughter and patted her on the shoulder. “You don’t have to worry about me and your mother. If you really want to give birth to this child, then give birth to it. This child is a member. of the Quinn family. You don’t have to bother with the rumors. Worse come to worst, we’ll move to another place. What’s there to be afraid of?” 

Abigail stepped forward and said, “That’s right, Lillian. You don’t have to care about anything else. Just

think about whether you want to give birth to this baby and whether you want to get back together with Callum.” 

Of course, she knew that Callum had always held a significant place in her daughter’s heart all those years. Nevertheless, she also understood her daughter’s concerns. 

After listening to her parents’ words, Lillian suddenly hugged them and burst into tears. 

She had been feeling lost recently. At that moment, her suppressed feelings were all vented out. 

At any time, her parents were always by her side and supported her. 

After crying for a while, Lillian felt much better. Perhaps before, she had been afraid of how her parents would react after learning about her pregnancy. She didn’t know whether they would scold her or be disappointed in her. 

But now, her parents’ reaction had reassured her. She could decide without worries. 

She could decide for herself whether to keep the child in her stomach or how she should proceed in her relationship with Callum. 

If she didn’t want to keep the baby, the earlier she aborted, the less damage her body would sustain. 

However, she wondered if she could still have another child if she were to give up this one. Inexplicably, Lillian seemed to have a feeling that maybe this child was the only one in her life. 

Also, she was curious about what Callum meant by giving him one week. She thought, “He wants me to wait for him for another week? Is he saying that all my worries will vanish after one week? Will we be able to live together happily after that?” 

Thinking of that, Lillian couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
