Chapter 283 The Fury of a Woman Scorned
“See, I told you she came here today just to throw herself at Callum.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk. With so many of us watching, she’s not even embarrassed. She must have a hide like a battleship.”
Finished
“Back in high school, when Callum chased her, she flatly refused him. Now that she sees he’s made money, she’s all over him. How cheap can you get?”
“Hold off on the comments. If Callum is into it, why not have a little fun? She’s practically begging for it, so why not?”
“True, she’s a felon with a record. Getting a job must be hard for her, so selling her body seems like an easy way to make money.”
Their words were unbearable.
Marilyn trembled with anger, “Shut up, Ms. Bennett is nothing like what you’re saying.”
“Ms. Bennett? Ha! Looks more like she’s an escort to me
Lauren struggled to break free from Callum’s embrace, but he held her too tightly for her to escape.
It was Callum’s first time holding Lauren, and he found her incredibly soft. Her scent was intoxicating. almost like an aphrodisiac to him, eliciting an immediate reaction.
Lauren keenly felt his change and was utterly disgusted her stomach churned so violently she nearly threw
- up.
Callum’s lips curled into a wicked, suggestive smile. He tightened his hold and whispered in her ear, “Lauren, after all these years, you’re still so enticing. Now that you’re here, why rush off? Stay and keep me company, huh?”
His breath on her ear made her skin crawl.
Lauren struggled fiercely, but Callum was too strong, and she couldn’t move.
Just then, the door to the private room creaked open again.
Everyone turned to see a woman in a white dress with long, straight black hair, standing gracefully at the doorway. She looked pure yet alluring-
Her gaze swept across the room, finally landing on Callum and Lauren. Her face turned ashen with anger and disbelief.
“Taylor?” Callum, seeing the woman in white, showed a flicker of embarrassment but quickly regained his composure. He released Lauren and approached Taylor. “Taylor, you finally made it? We’ve all been waiting for you.”
Taylor, as if she hadn’t heard him, stared fixedly at Lauren, her eyes filled with disgust.
Ever since being abandoned by Saint and Kenny, she had been looking for another man to take shelter

Chapter 293 The Fury of a Woman Scorned
Callum was a high branch she had managed to cling to after inuch effort.
Finished
She had done her research; though Callum was only a small–time sales manager and couldn’t compare to a rich second–generation like Kenny or a local heavyweight like Saint, his quick rise to sales manager at Brooker Corporation, a top company in Corwynale, showed his promising future.
Moreover, Callum was in the process of divorcing his wealthy wife from Hoverdale. Once divorced, he’d likely secure a large settlement from her.
Being with Callum meant she wouldn’t have to worry about hardship.
If Callum got promoted by Felix in the future, her life would soar. Even if Callum changed his heart later. she wasn’t worried.
Because, she had already planned to use her time with Callum to meet Felix.
With her beauty and skills in managing men, winning Felix’s favor wouldn’t be difficult.
She knew marrying into a wealthy family might be a stretch, but just being associated with one could bring her many benefits. A mere trickle from such wealth would ensure a life of luxury.
Her status made meeting someone like Felix nearly impossible, so using Callum as a stepping stone was crucial
Now, her carefully chosen stepping stone was being seduced by some shameless girl, and they were all over each other. How could I tolerate that
Determined not to let her plans be ruined, she wouldn’t let this slide.
Taylor clenched her teeth in fury at Lauren, shouting. You shameless girl, seducing my man? Are you tired of living?”
Lauren, realizing this woman must be Callum’s girlfriend, quickly tried to
Plain, “You’ve got it all wrong, I didn’t seduce Callum; he was the one who made a move on me. You’re his girlfriend, right? Then please keep your boyfriend in check.”
Taylor ignored Lauren’s explanation, even feeling that Lauren, the ‘mistress, was deliberately provoking her, the legitimate girlfriend.
Enraged, she swung her purse wildly at Lauren, cursing nonstop, “You wench, dare to seduce my man? I’ll reach you a lesson.”
