Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me novel Chapter 154

Chapter 154

Elspeth blushed after being questioned. As she looked at the solemn Callum, she replied nonchalantly, “Mm.” Since Callum was observant, she dared not lie to him.

“I was worried that you might think I have an ulterior motive… Would you let me stay at Winthrop Group if you found out about my identity?”

“Yes,” Callum replied without hesitation.

“Alright, I’ll admit that I was being narrow-minded.”

However, Callum’s expression remained solemn. “So, what are your plans after revealing your identity?” He was worried that she would leave Winthrop Group after her identity as the president of Azure Corporation was revealed.

“Don’t worry about that. I won’t go back to Azure Corporation.” Elspeth couldn’t help but chuckle after figuring out what he was concerned about. Callum’s grave expression finally brightened up by a tad.

“Earlier on, you mentioned that Winthrop Group will belong to me. Do you still mean it?” Elspeth teased him when she saw how grim his expression was. She was trying to lighten the mood, but Callum took it seriously.

Of course, Callum wouldn’t hand it over to her just like that. As he stood up, he replied nonchalantly, “Winthrop Group will be yours if you get engaged to me.”

“Callum, doesn’t it occur to you that you might be asking for trouble?” she asked in surprise as she had never seen such an upfront person that would give his established company away as promised.

“I can start another company after giving it away but where can I find another wife after she has left me?” Callum smiled.

Elspeth blushed at the mention of the word ‘wife’. I never said that I’m going to be his wife. He sounded like she would agree to marry him immediately. “Stop with the nonsense. I never said that I’m going to get engaged to you.”

“Oh?” His gaze darkened after hearing that. “Can you repeat yourself?”

Seeing how he was inching toward her, she immediately took a step back. “I haven’t had time to think about it and you shouldn’t be forcing me. Shouldn’t we let it happen naturally?” She realized that she was the one asking for trouble!

“When are you going to marry me if I don’t pressure you to do it?” Callum pulled her into his arms and whispered in her ears.

“Why are you in such a rush?”

“I can’t wait any longer.” The thought of numerous men hovering around Elspeth made him furious. Blake, Jordan, Harper, and the abnormal Arthur… All of them seem to be interested in Elspeth. If he didn’t make her his wife soon, he was afraid that they might cause a stir between them.

Although Elspeth was touched by his reply, she would still be troubled even if both of them were together. “Let’s not rush it. There’s something that I need to take care of.”

There had always been a matter that gnawed at her mind, which was the unresolved matter about her mother. She believed that there must be something behind her mother’s departure. Her mother wouldn’t have left them heartlessly when she was that in love with her father. However, it was a big mystery and she had no idea where to start. If this matter wasn’t resolved, she wouldn’t feel at ease when she was with Callum.

“You must have heard that my mom and dad had a conflict, and she left us after that.” Elspeth looked at Callum with flickering eyes, and she seemed dispirited.
