BOOKSDRAMA Chapter 1310
Chapter 1310:
Calvert readily agreed since he wasn't looking for any trouble. But he wasn't about to let this opportunity pass without squeezing a little more out of Kallie.
"Now, now," he said, rubbing his hands together.
"Following him around will take time away from my other duties. Plus, I haven't exactly been keeping you medicated. Those nosy servants might notice something's amiss. And then there's the cost of dealing with them."
The message was loud and clear. Kallie seethed inwardly, but she nodded.
"Fine," she said through gritted teeth.
"I'll pay you fairly. Just bring me my bag."
All of Kallie's belongings from that fateful day were still here, except for her phone and other electronics, which had been confiscated. Calvert fetched Kallie her bag. She opened it and pulled out a black credit card, handing it to him.
Calvert's eyes widened. He knew exactly what this card was. His grin could have lit up a stadium.
"Kallie, you're an angel!" he exclaimed.
"Don't worry, no one will lay a finger on you. And I'll make sure everything stays nice and quiet."
Kallie nodded, pleased.
"I know you can handle this or I wouldn't have given you the money. I need to rest now, so don't linger in my room for too long."
Calvert left Kallie's room with a spring in his step, and plenty of people saw him.
The servants whispered amongst themselves, wondering what was going on between Kallie and Calvert.
Florrie watched the whole thing from nearby. She was fuming, her eyes filled with jealousy and resentment.

Calvert's unusual gentleness over the past few days had made Florrie start to feel a twinge of regret over rejecting his suggestion so harshly that day, embarrassing him. For a moment, she almost approached Gracelyn to agree to that absurd plan of Calvert and Kallie having a child under the condition that she would be the mother and raise the child along with Calvert. After all, as long as Calvert loved her, nothing else really mattered. Besides, she still coveted the White family's fortune. Agreeing to that plan would surely curry Gracelyn's favor.
But now, Florrie was glad she hadn't gone to Gracelyn. Calvert's love for her had all been an act. A bitter reality sank in. Even with all these years of marriage, he had never flashed her a smile as bright as the one he had put on when exiting Kallie's room. If he and Kallie were to have a baby, she didn't need to guess to know her fate would be doomed. She would likely end up with nothing-no child, no husband, no money.
Florrie knew she had to act fast and drive a wedge between Kallie and Calvert.
Just then, two servants walked by, gossiping.
"Did you see that new guy?" one whispered.
"He's rather handsome, like a movie star."
"What's his deal? Why's he so eager to take care of Mrs. White?"
"Can't you tell? He's obviously trying to suck up to Mrs. White so he can have a cushy life. His family's probably dirt poor."
"But he's so dashing! How could he be poor?"

"How naive of you. If he was rich, why hadn't anyone come looking for him when he recovered here earlier? Mrs. White once thought he was from a wealthy family, but he's not. He's just a nobody. He's probably in debt up to his eyeballs, and that's why he's so desperate. Guys like him are all looks and no substance. And probably a player." The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest

"You're right. We should stay away from him."
"I think he's got the hots for Miss Nixon." The first servant giggled.
"But with her temper these days, who knows? Maybe he pissed her off and blew his chance."
