Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me novel Chapter 193

Arthur was wearing an all-white suit that evening and looked incredibly striking. The first thing he did was not greet Theodore with a happy birthday. Instead, he walked over to Callum and Elspeth. “Emma told me you were being mean to her. What did she mean by that?”

Emma had apparently complained to Arthur, so he had come to question them.

How hilarious! Elspeth sneezed. “I would never dare do that. I don’t have the guts to be mean to her. She intentionally came over to disgust me. My only choice was to fight back. Still, what a coincidence. She was so irresponsible as to give an imitation watch as a gift.”

Then, he politely smiled. “Even if her gift isn’t a genuine product, she meant well by it. You knew she was a public figure, yet you repeatedly humiliated her in front of many people.”

Do I have to accept responsibility for everything? She looked at Arthur with disdain as she retorted, “Arthur, it is your business if you like her and want to protect her. I do not like her, so please never mention her name to me.”

Surprised that Elspeth would say something so vile, his face went stiff. “What a crude woman,” he spat out.

Callum shot him a cold glare as he stood in front of Elspeth. “Whom are you calling crude?” he asked, upset.

Arthur did not respond to Callum’s question and merely shot Elspeth a stern look before turning around and walking toward Theodore.

Meanwhile, Theodore had been busy entertaining some guests. When he heard that Arthur was present, emotions warred within him. Hence, he was worried when he saw Arthur approach him.

“Happy birthday, Dad,” Arthur said.

Theodore flinched when he heard the familiar term and responded, “Hey.”

During their last conversation, Arthur repeatedly addressed Theodore as ‘Mr. Winthrop’ before he left, and every time he did that, it hurt Theodore. Still, Arthur was willingly calling him ‘dad’ now. Did that mean he wanted to repair their relationship?

“I am so sorry for last time, Dad,” Arthur stated. “I blamed all of you without knowing everything about the situation. I even said I would cut off all contact with you guys. It’s all my fault. I hope you can forgive me. I still want to call you Dad.”

His speech was so moving that everyone present was touched. Everyone except for Callum and Elspeth.

“Say, why do you think Arthur came here to make up with your father?” Despite the tears in Arthur’s eyes, Elspeth did not think things were what they seemed.

Callum calmly peeled open the cherry and fed it to Elspeth. “Why else? Money and power. The Winthrops could grant him a greater social standing than anything he could achieve.”

“You mean he’s up to something again?”

“I don’t know,” Callum replied with a blank look as he wiped his hands clean. “Judging by the current situation, though, he is definitely not doing this out of the kindness of his heart.”

However, the rest of the Winthrops were not as cautious as him. Except for Edmund, who was hesitant to believe Arthur, Blake, and Max both let down their guards and dashed over to hug Arthur.

“It’s good that you’re back.”

“Even if we’re not blood-related, you will always be my brother!”

They had lived together for decades. How could their brotherhood be cut off in an instant?

However, Arthur continued to cry as cameras loudly clicked and flashed. Tomorrow’s headline was set in stone.

Seeing that made Elspeth smirk mockingly.
