Chapter 15: Wallace Doesn’t

Owe You a Thing

As Abbie spoke, tears rolled

down her face. “Because of

me, she lost Callum. Not to

mention being harmed by her, I’m willing to kneel down if it means getting Callum back. I’m willing to do anything.”

Seeing the tear–streaked face of Abbie, Callum felt a sharp

pain in his heart.

He quickly embraced Abbie,

wiping away her tears.

“You’re not the one at fault.

Don’t say that.”

Melina, witnessing the

intimate scene between the

two, couldn’t help but smile.

She quietly left the room when Jillian rushed in. “Mom-”

The moment Jillian saw her mother, it was as if she had

found a lifeline. She threw

herself into her mother’s

arms. “You have to help me!”

“What’s going on?!” Melina, spotting Jillian’s swollen face, ..

instantly switched to a

concerned look, cupping her daughter’s face and asking, “Who did this to you?”

Jillian skipped her earlier taunts towards Lexie, and detailed how Lexie not only

hit her but also tried to kill

her. “Mom, not only did she hit me, but she also tried to

throw me off the fifteenth

floor balcony. If it wasn’t for the witnesses there, you

wouldn’t see me now.”

“Why would you provoke her in the first place?”

Callum scolded.

Thinking of Lexie’s

indifferent attitude before,

his expression turned a bit

colder.

“Cal, I’m your sister!” Jillian retorted tearfully, “I was the one who got beaten, and almost thrown off the

balcony. How can you blame me?”

Callum snorted, “She could

have hit me, but she chose to

hit you! Why? Because

you’re smarter?”

“Mom, do something! Cal is so mean to me!” Jillian stood

in place, stomping her foot,

clinging to Melina’s arm like a spoiled child. “I don’t care; she must apologize to me!”

She had to get back at Lexie; otherwise, she couldn’t

swallow this humiliation!

Melina gently caressed Jillian’s swollen face, her eyes gradually filled with

coldness.

She never liked Lexie from

the beginning, disapproving

of her background and upbringing. She couldn’t

stand Lexie’s unclear,

arrogant demeanor.

She thought that leaving the

Wallace family, Lexie would

learn to behave. Little did

she know that Lexie not only

remained the same but

became even more

audacious, directly laying hands on Jillian. It was as if Lexie didn’t scare the

Wallace family at all!

“Let’s go! I want to see who gave her the courage to hit

you!” Melina marched

angrily towards Lexie’s ward

with Jillian.

Kaitlynn left the ward after a call, leaving Lexie alone.

Suddenly, a loud noise from

the door caught Lexie’s

attention.

Turning her head, she saw Melina and Jillian standing at the doorway.

Her eyes narrowed, a chilly

expression covered her

delicate face, “You’re not

welcome here. Please leave!”

“Lexie, who gave you the

audacity to talk to me like this?” Melina, with her Birkin bag slung over her shoulder,

walked into Lexie’s ward

with an air of superiority.

She looked Lexie up and..

down, her eyes filled with strong disdain. “Did you slap Jillian?!”
