Becoming Secret Nanny for Possessive CEO-Chapter 71: I Hate You

Edith booked a fancy restaurant just for their dinner date. Because she was on an important mission, she asked Renata to help her babysit her twins. She wasn’t ready to do this cruel thing, but she was forced to do it so that Callum wouldn’t be underestimated. Furthermore, she wanted to protect Callum from harm, because if their relationship continued like this, Callum’s life would also be in danger.

After waiting a few minutes alone in the restaurant, Callum finally showed up with a charming face and a sweet smile that made Edith even more reluctant to hurt her lover. Would she never be able to see that smile after hurting him?

"Edith, it’s unusual for you to invite me to a dinner date at this beautiful restaurant. Especially since you deliberately left the place empty for us."

Edith responded with a beaming smile, holding her lover’s hand. "I don’t want anyone to interrupt our dinner date. Besides, we haven’t been able to go on dates outside the house as much as we’d like."

"Thank you for taking the initiative to ask me out on a date in this beautiful place. Today is going to be the most beautiful day of my life."

Hearing her lover’s overly sweet words made her chest feel tighter. She was worried that something would happen to Callum after she said various harsh words to make Callum hate her.

"Callum, can we eat first? I’m actually hungry."

"Sorry, you must have waited too long for me until you were hungry."

"No. Actually, I just got hungry quickly today."

They spent a few minutes relaxing at dinner. Edith still couldn’t bear to say goodbye to Callum because the atmosphere was too sweet and she wanted to enjoy this beautiful moment even longer. In her heart, she dared to say that only Callum could make her smile. Moreover, only Callum was always honest with her. That’s what made her fall in love with Callum more and more as time went by. Moreover, for the past five years, Callum had always been thinking of ways to find her and fix their relationship. Now she had to disappoint him so he wouldn’t chase her anymore.

After finishing her dinner, Edith slowly placed her fork and spoon on her plate. Then, she wiped the corners of her mouth with a tissue.

"Callum, thank you for accompanying me to dinner today."

"I want you to take me out to dinner more often tomorrow, the day after, or forever."

Her head lowered. "But it looks like today is the last time I’ll take you on a dinner date to a fancy restaurant."

Callum laughed lightly, gently patting his girlfriend’s head. "It’s okay. It’s hard for us to go on dates outside. If that’s not possible, we can just have a dinner date at home."

"I mean, I don’t want to be your girlfriend anymore."

Callum’s face, initially happy, now turned into panic. His gaze widened and his mouth dropped open. His girlfriend’s words had just stabbed him.

"Why are you suddenly like this? Are you mad because I haven’t been able to go out with you lately?"

"No. Actually, I realized from the start that our relationship shouldn’t be like this. It’s a realistic situation; you and I shouldn’t have met in the first place."

"What do you mean? Why are you making such a big deal out of it? I’ve been so happy spending all this time with you."

"But I don’t feel that way. I don’t know why, but the more I force myself to love you, the more I can’t. Rather than keep doing it, I’d rather end it than keep suffering."

"Are you serious about saying that?" His eyes grew even more teary upon hearing his lover’s unexpected words.

"Yes, I’m very serious, and I want you to wake up from this hallucinatory world!" Edith stood up from her chair, carrying her sling bag. "Besides, from the start, I was assigned as Erdin’s secret nanny and your personal designer. I want us to remain professional from now on."

"What if I still wanted to be with you? Besides, you don’t have amnesia anymore, so why would you care about that stupid contract and assignment anymore? It was just a lame excuse to get you back. I never wanted to treat you like a stranger in the first place."

"Callum, I was wrong from the start. I shouldn’t have been so gentle with you. As a result, you were blinded by my love."

When Callum wanted to reach for his lover’s hand, his hand was immediately pushed away.

"Starting tomorrow, I’m taking Eliana away from you. I don’t want to live with you anymore. Your relationship with me is over now."

"I still won’t let you get away from me! Even if you want our relationship to end, I still won’t let you do it! Moreover, Eliana is my daughter too! You have no right to take her away from me!"

Edith folded her arms. "But, for the past five years, I’ve been raising her alone! Therefore, I’m more qualified to be her mother! I don’t mind leaving Erdin to you because you’ve been the one raising him all this time!"

"You’re so cruel to treat your own child as an object! Now I want to ask you, do you still love me?"

"No. I never loved you from the start, Callum. All this time, I’ve only forced myself to love you for Eliana’s sake."

"I mean, have you been loving me for the past five years?"

"Yes, I was forced to love you so I could escape from my marriage to Cliff."

Edith couldn’t bear to look at Callum, who was sobbing and kneeling. She knew full well that Callum loved her deeply. However, she was forced to do so so he could get everything he’d always wanted. This way, Callum could live a happier life than if he were with her.

"Even though I don’t love you, I still love Erdin as my son. I will still be his nanny every day. But I will no longer be your lover."

"Edith, why are you acting like this all of a sudden? Are you actually being threatened by someone?"

"No. But I do want to be free from you. I’m so sick of living with you all this time! I hate you so much."
