Chapter 880

Acting Against

Max promptly placed a phone call.

“Mom, I humbly request that you refrain from being distressed as the responsibility for this situation lies solely with me.” Callen delicately took hold of Mary’s arm and attempted to display charm.

Mary gazed at her, emitting a sigh of helplessness, and spoke indulgently. “Sean may seem more appealing, yet he is presently in a relationship with Abigail, both of whom are in their second marriage. In addition to not having children, they appear to be a contentedly married couple. How can he be compared to you?”

“His overseas encounters are genuinely noteworthy. He presents a resilient facade alongside a tender aspect. Such a combination is rather uncommon. If he were to pursue another woman, I would perceive him as having lost his appeal, and my interest in him would diminish.” Callen earnestly conveyed her thoughts regarding Sean.

Mary delicately touched her head. “You are maturing and contemplating the prospect of seeking a life partner. I used to have concerns that you were overly dedicated to your career and might never establish a stable personal life.”

“If I have not yet encountered the appropriate individual, it is only natural that I would lack interest.” Callen positioned herself against Mary’s shoulder, murmuring in a gentle tone. “Mom, have you observed his actions towards Abigail on Valentine’s Day? I observed it directly. It was remarkably romantic, and it would surely touch any woman.”

“This demonstrates the depth of his feelings for Abigail. Even if one succeeds in gaining his favor, it may not necessarily result in happiness.” Mary articulated her concerns.
