Chapter 287
Callum was hit with a sudden revelation, but his body seemed to react on its own, sweeping Lexi off
her feet and carrying her towards the large, luxurious king-size bed.
He craved her, his desire refusing to be ignored for even a moment longer.
Lexi resisted, struggling against him. She wasn't some object for his pleasure, she wouldn't be!
But her efforts were nothing more than child's play to Callum, like a playful tickle that barely registered.
As they fell onto the expansive bed, Lexi glared at Callum. "You better let me go right now, you
dishonorable brute."
Callum deftly removed their clothing and whispered in Lexi's ear, "No, I'm not a brute. Didn't you tell me
to start a new life? So save me, because god, I don't know why, but I'm hellishly obsessed with you."
Lexi was taken aback. She never expected Callum to develop such feelings for her. Exposed and
vulnerable, Lexi shook her head in embarrassment. "No, no, no, you're just using me as a replacement
for Natalia. You can't do this."
Callum forcefully parted Lexi's legs and leaned over her, murmuring to her, "That's not it. These days, I
keep thinking about you involuntarily. Whether I'm happy or upset, I always want to share it with you.
Since you said I'm beyond redemption, why don't you save me, give me a chance to start over, to break
free from my infatuation with Buttercup." NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
Lexi wanted to push Callum away, but his words acted like a spell, making her feel dizzy. Callum had
already had his way by the time she regained her senses.
"Sweetheart, please give me the chance to start anew and break free from my obsession with Natalia,"
Callum pleaded, almost like a prayer, as he pressed into her.
Lexi pulled the thin blanket over her face, hating herself for somewhat enjoying the sensation. She was
the one beyond redemption.
Their tryst continued under Callum's relentless pursuit. Lexi resented him in her heart, but her body
yearned for him. Closing her eyes, she soon succumbed to Callum's advances.
The orgasm passed, leaving Lexi completely exhausted. She lay limp on the bed, not wanting to meet
Callum's gaze. Suddenly, Callum, who was about to get up, scooped Lexi into his arms. Startled, Lexi
quickly wrapped her arms around his neck, afraid of being dropped, "What are you doing?"
"It's not very comfortable here. Let's change the venue." Callum gave her a suggestive smile, carrying
Lexi towards the bathroom.
Entering the bathroom, Callum gently placed Lexi in the filled bathtub before joining her.
Feeling weak, Lexi could barely lift her fingers. She was unsure whether it was due to the warm water,
but her stomach started to churn. She leaned against the side of the tub and retched.
"Are you okay? Do you feel unwell somewhere?" Callum asked with concern.
Lexi shook her head. "No, I'm just feeling a bit queasy."
Although Lexi claimed she was fine, Callum couldn't help but worry. He stepped out of the tub, draped
a bathrobe around himself, and rang for Rita. "Get the doctor. Ms. Lexi isn't feeling well."
Rita rushed off and soon returned with the private doctor of the castle.
By this time, Callum had helped Lexi get dressed. He didn't want any other man to see his woman. The
doctor carefully inquired about Lexi's diet lately, and, after a thorough examination, handed her a
pregnancy test stick. “Ms. Lexi, if I’m not mistaken, there’s a good chance you might be pregnant. I
need you to take this test in the bathroom.”
Lexi was stunned. Impossible. How could she be pregnant? Impossible!
“No, no, no, doctor. I’m just feeling a bit queasy. I can’t be pregnant,” Lexi immediately denied the
possibility.
Meanwhile, Callum’s eyes lit up. “Are you doubting my ability or your own? If you’re too tired, I don’t
mind assisting you with the test.”
Imagine if she really carried Callum’s child. That would be wonderful. He was 35 and single. His family
had been dissatisfied with him for a while.
Compared to Lexi’s denial, Callum was full of confidence. His family had always had excellent genes.
He was almost certain he was right.
Reluctantly, Lexi went to the bathroom, followed the doctor’s instructions, and used the test stick. Her
heart was pounding as she watched the test strip slowly turn red. She was praying silently, hoping that
the doctor was wrong.
However, before she could see the result, Callum couldn’t wait any longer and barged in. “What does it
say?”
Lexi jumped. “Why did you just barge in without knocking?”
Callum just shrugged. “What’s there to be afraid of? Have I not seen every part of you?”
Knowing Lexi’s stubborn personality, he figured that if she didn’t want to be pregnant but found out she
was, she would definitely try to hide it.
“Let’s let the doctor see it.” Callum reached out his large hand towards Lexi.
Hesitant, Lexi didn’t want to hand over the test. “What if the doctor made a mistake? What if this test
isn’t accurate?”
“Why worry about ‘what ifs?’ Let’s just go see the doctor, then we’ll know for sure,” Callum said,
wrapping his arm around Lexi’s shoulder and leading her out of the bathroom.
The doctor took the pregnancy test and declared, “Congratulations, Ms. Lexi. You’re pregnant!”
His words hit Lexi like a ton of bricks. It couldn’t be true. She couldn’t be pregnant!
“No, you must be mistaken. This test is faulty,” Lexi instinctively denied the doctor’s diagnosis.
“Ms. Lexi, you may question my medical expertise, but you cannot doubt the reliability of this advanced
technology. This pregnancy test is absolutely foolproof; it’s so precise it can detect conception the
moment it happens,” the doctor arrogantly declared, striding out of the room with sure-footed steps.
