Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me Chapter 251
Elspeth’s words caused a ripple to spread through Lisa’s heart.
“No.”
When Elspeth heard Lisa’s awkward reply, she was in glee.
The young lady never lied, so she probably wasn’t in a relationship, but she had probably met someone she liked.
“I see.” Elspeth shrugged, then continued, “Right, I wanted to see you because I have something I need your help with. I need to look into something.”
Lisa nodded emotionlessly. “I know. Harper told me everything.”
“Good. How long do you need to figure it out?”
“Half a day.”
Elspeth narrowed her eyes. “Half a day… That can do. See me again in 12 hours.”
Lisa nodded, then walked out. Throughout the whole process, she didn’t even spare a glance at Callum.
“This subordinate of yours… is quite odd.” Callum eventually settled on this comment.
Elspeth smiled. “What’s the matter? Are you interested in this young lady?”
Even though she hadn’t said anything, he could still hear the jealousy in her tone.
She is jealous. Callum smiled as he took Elspeth into his embrace, touching her nose as he said, “What are you thinking? That’s nonsense.”
Elspeth huffed and turned around, refusing to look at him.
In the afternoon, Lisa visited again as expected.
Noticing Elspeth’s faint smile, Lisa said calmly, “I’ve looked into it. Arthur was the one behind this.”
“How did he do it?”
“He was the one who sent someone to lie in wait underwater, and the person deliberately dragged you into the water. He was trying to drown you.”
As Lisa spoke, she glanced at Elspeth’s expression.
Elspeth suppressed the rage in her heart as she asked, “In that case, where is Arthur now?”
“However… someone else has already taken care of Arthur.”
Elspeth was immediately stunned. “Who?”
“I’m not sure, but I heard that Arthur was left naked at the intersection of Terrace Street. A group of bodyguards stood guard while everyone looked at him. After that, Arthur felt so embarrassed that he removed all the headlines and hashtags overnight. As such, only a handful of people know about this incident.”
Terrace Street… Isn’t that the street next to Emma’s villa? Elspeth suddenly remembered the secrets she had heard before. When she recalled all the dirty business between Emma and Arthur, she immediately understood everything.
“After sending you to the hospital, Eric disappeared for a while,” Callum stated indifferently.
“It must be Eric’s doing, then. Judging from his casual behavior, I didn’t know he could be this cruel.”
Stripped naked and tossed out into the streets for everyone to see… Arthur was probably beyond pissed to have endured such humiliation.
When Elspeth imagined Arthur’s flustered look, she couldn’t help laughing.
Lisa nodded slightly. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving now. You can call me whenever you need help.”
Elspeth took the opportunity to ask, “Lisa, do you have a place to stay?”
It was only then that Lisa realized she didn’t even have a place to lodge. She thought for a bit, then said calmly, “It’s okay. I can stay at the hotel for the time being.”
Since the expenses were necessary for work, she could claim reimbursement from Harper.
