Chapter 72

From the hallway that opened up to the front yard, I saw Callahan walking forward. He was on the phone, talking to someone, and was oblivious to my presence.

I simply kept looking at him as he strode forward with a relaxed posture. His hair looked wet, and he was roaming his hands through those soft, silky strands while taking slow strides.

But that was not what had me gawking at him. He was also in gym wear and goodness did he look fine.

The white t-shirt perfectly covered his broad chest and seemed like it was tailor made to fit his body. And those black gym shorts showed just how perfectly sculpted his entire body was

Did this guy ever overindulge in eating? How could someone look like they spent all their day working in the office, yet look as if they had been sweating tirelessly in the gym?

Callahan disconnected the call and slipped the phone into his pockets as he reached the door. I was standing a little to the side.

All this time, Cynthia was talking excitedly with Elijah, who responded kindly to her.

I doubted Elijah would ever be rude to anyone. He was always sweet and caring, just like my mother. He was a nice person to hang around with.

Callahan walked down the small flight of stairs, and Elijah bowed to him almost instinctively.

“Good morning, King”

Cynthia perked up upon seeing Callahan and she, too, immediately bowed.

“Good morning, King”

I noticed that she bowed a bit too low for Callahan, giving him a nice view of her bosom that threatened to spill out of her sports bra.

Callahan smiled at them both and replied, “No need to be so formal”

Elijah smiled in return, but Cynthia immediately sprang up towards him, taking his words to heart.

She went near him and began talking to him softly, blushing a little.
