Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 2157

Mavis's heart ached as she listened to Callum's words.

She immediately pulled him into her arms, cradling him close.

"How could I ever, ever leave you, Callum? That's impossible," she whispered, trying to reassure him.

It was obvious that Callum was very understanding despite his young age. Most of the time, he pretended not to notice things so they would not worry about him.

Mavis realized just how sensitive her little boy truly was, and guilt and regret surged through her.

However, the problems between her and Nathaniel were far too complicated to ignore.

She had to face them.

"Callum, I won't lie to you. Nathaniel and I are indeed discussing divorcing. I don't know if he will ever marry Tiffany, but I promise I won't be with Evan. I just want to live with you, take care of you, and start a new life together. I'll take you to Vraeyce, and we can have a fresh start there. How does that sound?"

Callum met her gaze, staying quiet.

Not long ago, he had asked Mavis to take him away because he was upset with Nathaniel and wanted to run off with her for a while.

Yet, what Mavis was suggesting was not a short trip.

She was talking about moving to a new, unfamiliar place with a whole new life ahead of them.

It meant leaving behind Nathaniel, Mildred, Gabrielle, and even Adora…

The uncertain future frightened him.

Mavis continued, "Callum, you haven't met Grandma yet. She's very fond of you, and both she and I will always be there to take care of you. Doesn't that sound nice?"

Callum's cheeks were tear-stained, but he shook his head firmly.

"I don't want to go," he said, his voice quiet but resolute.

Mavis's heart sank.

"I like it here. I don't want to go to Vraeyce."

Mavis's heart skipped a beat, and she nervously fidgeted with the hem of her dress, trying to coax him.

"But didn't you say you would go abroad with me? Why the sudden change?"

Callum just shook his head again, repeating, "I'm not going. I don't want to."
