Chapter 901

“Anyone with a bit of common sense would have been able to tell that you are pregnant by looking at the report. Unless the doctor you consulted doesn’t even have that bit of a good sense,” Callum said with a

sneer.

Lillian clenched her teeth and kept silent for a while before saying, “Whether I’m pregnant or not, it is still none of your business.”

“You are carrying my child. Please explain to me how this is none of my business?” Callum snapped. “Maybe because the baby might, not be yours?” Lillian responded instinctively, without even realizing what that might imply.

In an instant, the atmosphere in the private room turned tense. Callum’s eyes darkened, and he said through gritted teeth, “So, whose baby is it then? Is it Jerick’s?

Lillian felt as if an invisible hand was choking her, making her unable to say a word at that moment. Callum’s gaze made her feel a sense of danger. She felt that if she really said yes to that question, Jerick would be in hot water.

“N-No, it’s not Jerick’s,” Lillian stammered stiffly after some time.

Callum’s heart throbbed when he saw her pale face and trembling body. He thought, “What’s wrong with me? I almost lost my temper with her just now. I was ecstatic when I found out that she was pregnant. I lost my temper because she was trying to deny it was my baby.” When Callum heard the denial, his heart, which had soared after seeing the report, felt like it had been doused with cold water.

“You couldn’t eat this food just now, right? Then I’ll ask someone to take these back and bring you some that are more suitable for pregnant women,” Callum said, taking the initiative to change the topic. Then he called the waiter over and ordered a different set of dishes.

“Is there anything particular you want to eat?” Callum asked again as he ordered for Lillian.

“I-I don’t have any appetite. You don’t need to order anything for me,” Lillian said.

However, Callum ignored her and ordered several dishes. But this time, all of them were mildly flavored.

Lillian lowered her head and started taking small bites out of the food. Fortunately, she didn’t feel like throwing up the food that she was eating now.

Callum was still holding on to the report and staring intently at Lillian.
