Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 1695
Upon receiving Lilian’s promise, Callum was relieved.
He felt the need to leave FC Manor since Mr. Tim disliked the sight of him at that point.
Callum learned about Tim and Lilian’s story from Zachary.
Initially, Lilian merely wanted a child and not a man.
She knew that Tim was looking for her, yet she did not tell him that she was the one.
She even ran away.
She did not even attend Jane and Ben’s wedding.
By the time Tim found out that Lilian was the person he was looking for, he put aside his work and flew to where she was. After
staying by Lilian’s side for half a year, he had feelings for her. It was only then that Lilian was willing to return to Annenburg with
him.
The public had no idea what Tim had done and how much he had sacrificed in those six months.
However, one could imagine that Tim went through a hard time before winning Lilian’s heart and marrying her. Although they had
not held their wedding, they were considered married couples. Tim enjoyed spending time with his wife most.
With Callum coming over so often and interrupting them, it was natural for Tim to pull a long face.
It showed how well–mannered Tim was when he did not kick Callum out of the house.
After Callum expressed his gratitude, he rose to his feet and left FC Manor.
Tim had the butler walk Callum out.
Once Callum left, Tim let out a sigh of relief and said, “He has finally left. We should be able to get some peace in the next few
months.”
Amused, Lilian said, “If Mr. Callum hadn’t intended to have my mentor treat his fiancée’s eyes, he surely wouldn’t have
shamelessly come over several times a day. Anyway, I quite admire him for being shameless for his beloved wife’s sake. He’s a

man of deep sincerity.”
Tim said, “I can do the same too.”
Lilian chuckled before she responded, “I know you’re great. You’re one of the most brilliant people.”
Tim assisted Lilian up and walked out of the gazebo with his hand wrapped around her. He said, “Since you ate so much just
now, let me have a walk with you to help you with digestion.”
“Do you dislike me for eating so much?”
“Not at all. How would I dislike you for eating so much? In fact, I’m glad about it. You’re eating for two, so you should eat more.”
Lilian lifted her hand to pinch his face.
Among all the men she had touched, the touch of his skin was the best. Of course, it was when she performed surgery on
patients that she touched other men’s skin.
“I knew you were thinking about your son. Once he’s born, you’ll be responsible for him.”
“Sure. I’ll look after him and be a stay–at–home father.”
Tim obeyed all her instructions now.
Little did he expect that the two of them would want to run away in the future when the baby cried.
After Callum left FC Manor, he did not leave Annenburg straight away. He dropped by FC & Co. on behalf of York Corporation.
After all, these two companies had business connections.
Therefore, he stayed in Annenburg for ten days before returning to Wiltspoon.
By the time Callum returned to Wiltspoon, Duncan’s physical injuries had almost healed except for his legs.
However, he was in a poor mental state mainly because of his mindset.
He noticed that he was unable to walk now. Even when he tried to sit up, he would suffer excruciating pain once he moved his
legs. This made him dread sitting up, much less walking.

Callum knew that Duncan was involved in an accident. The day after Callum returned to Wiltspoon, he went to the hospital to
visit Duncan with Zachary and Serenity.
Even though Duncan refused to meet Liberty and Serenity as well as Zachary who brought the two of them over, they were very
concerned about Duncan and did not mind his attitude. Whenever Zachary and Serenity were available, they would visit Duncan
in the hospital.
