The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 827

Lillian couldn’t help but feel touched. Back in the day when she was seriously injured, Rosalie had done everything to protect her, and right then, it was still the same.

“Okay. I understand,” Lillian said. “Rosalie, it’s good to have friends like you!”

Madeline stared coldly at the video on her phone. The video showed the moment when Callum took Lillian away in front of a crowd of reporters.

It was a short video, only about a minute long, but Madeline watched it repeatedly.

Her face grew colder with each viewing.

Her parents had already called, asking her what had happened. She wanted to contact Callum to get some answers, but she couldn’t reach him at all. Even though she had called several times, nobody answered her call:

When she tried to contact Callum’s subordinates, they only offered her vague responses!

After turning off the video, Madeline pondered for a moment before getting up and heading to Callum’s mansion in Strico.

The security guards had no choice but to contact the people inside the mansion. After a while, they let Madeline enter.
