Becoming Secret Nanny for Possessive CEO-Chapter 109: Press Conference
Callum was actually starting to worry about his fiancée after bringing up their last conversation a few days ago. He was increasingly suspicious that Cliff was threatening her, which caused her to become uneasy. But what did Cliff really want? Had he still not given up on stealing Edith from him?
For now, Callum didn’t want to bring up Cliff again, lest Edith become even more anxious before the press conference. All the way to his hotel, where the press conference was taking place, Callum held his fiancée’s hand as they drove the sedan. Callum didn’t want to rely on Patrick to drive him to the hotel today.
"Callum, why don’t you ask Patrick to drive us to the hotel? Aren’t you tired of driving?"
Callum kissed the back of her soft hand deeply. "I actually don’t like Patrick being my driver. I can’t do everything I want to you."
Edith rolled her eyes. "If I were you, I’d definitely ask Patrick to drive us to the hotel. You can hug me, too."
"The most important thing is that now I can see you smile again, Edith."
A sweet smile spread across her beautiful face. "I always smile whenever I’m with you."
"Seeing you smile continuously since we cooked breakfast, I became more confident when doing press conferences."
Upon arriving at the hotel, Callum immediately parked his sedan in the lobby. He got out of the car first and then opened the door for his fiancée. He let her embrace him affectionately as they walked to the venue where the press conference was taking place.
As the ballroom doors swung open, reporters enthusiastically greeted them, snapping photos of the stars as they walked down the red carpet to the stage. Callum and Edith greeted everyone with a wave. Edith was a little awkward at first, unaccustomed to attending such an important event. However, she gradually gained confidence as everyone supported their wedding.
Now this pair of main stars are sitting next to each other on stage. Even though they are already seated, Callum is so reluctant to let go of his hand that it makes all the reporters jealous of seeing him.
"Mr. Callum, it turns out you’re a very romantic man. Contrary to what you’ve said in several exclusive interviews," said one of the female reporters.
Callum smiled confidently as he gazed at his beloved woman. "I wasn’t lying back then. I’d never been in love with anyone before. Since I met Edith, I’ve learned what true love is."
"Then why didn’t you ever deny your relationship with Arabella before?"
"Because at that time, circumstances weren’t conducive to Edith and I’s relationship. Edith and I had actually been engaged for five years. In fact, we actually had twins."
"Do you actually have a child out of wedlock?" asked a male reporter with a stern face.
"Perhaps in your eyes, we made a mistake by having a child out of wedlock. But that’s not really how it happened. Having a child with Edith is a blessing for me, not a mistake." His eyes sparkled as he stared at Edith’s sweet smile. "I regret that a while ago I cared more about Arabella. In truth, I only love Edith in my life."
"Edith, what do you think about the viral news about Callum and Arabella’s relationship? Especially the rumor that they were kissing by the pool in the middle of the night."
This time, Edith wouldn’t hesitate to bully Arabella for stealing Callum from her. She grabbed Callum’s right hand and flashed a confident smile.
"I actually didn’t believe it. Because that night, Callum slept with me. Callum only intended to visit Arabella because he was worried she would drown while swimming drunk."
"But aren’t you angry? Especially since Callum came to another woman in the middle of the night."
"I’m more angry because Arabella disturbed my fiancé, who was sleeping with me that night. Even though she wanted to destroy Callum and me, I still wanted to maintain our relationship."
All the reporters who heard Edith’s statement were amazed, including Callum, who fell even more in love with Edith because she never hesitated to openly express her feelings.
"Now I want to officially announce my relationship with Edith. We are engaged and will be married as soon as things get back to normal."
"Are you actually afraid that Arabella and Cliff will ruin your relationship again?"
Callum’s eyes focused on all the cameras focused on him. "Actually, five years ago, Edith and I almost died in an accident."
This is what shocked everyone. They had never even heard about the accident that befell Callum and Edith five years ago. Because Callum mentioned an unexpected event, the news became exclusive and trending on social media.
"All this time, Edith and I have been living separately because someone deliberately hid Edith in a remote hospital so that I couldn’t find her. Moreover, Edith experienced amnesia as a result of the accident."
"If I may ask, who was the person who locked Edith up at that time?"
Edith immediately raised her right hand. "Actually, I’ve been wondering why I was treated in such a remote hospital. What’s certain is that Callum and I are still trying to find the killer who tried to kill us. Especially since our twins nearly died in that incident."
"So, for the time being, I won’t marry Edith until the killer is caught. My assumption is that someone close to us is the culprit."
"Did you ever suspect Cliff and Arabella were the culprits?"
"I can’t suspect them without evidence. But what’s certain is that they have an ulterior motive: they want to separate Edith and me."
"I don’t want you to misunderstand me anymore. Even though Cliff and I had a pretty grand engagement party, I won’t forgive him because he cheated on me five years ago when we were still engaged."
"From now on, I want all media outlets to investigate the truth before publishing any real news. I don’t want any more scandalous news about my relationships with other women."
