Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me novel Chapter 298

Even though she knew it was normal that Callum was treating her indifferently, it still made Elspeth tear up.

Noticing the dour mood, Callum paused for a moment and added, “Elias and Edmund are waiting for you. They have something to tell you.”

“I see.” Elspeth smiled bitterly. She nodded and left the office. Then, she took a deep breath to hide her pain. Standing outside the door was a pair of identical men smiling and waving at her. The sight of them made her sadness go away a little. She approached Elias. “I’ve told the doctor to make your case the top priority. It’s been an hour, so the results should be out now.”

Elias nodded in resignation. “That’s why we came. We’re not related. It’s just a beautiful misunderstanding.”

Elspeth put her own problems aside. Surprised, she said, “Really? But that’s impossible!”

Elias and Edmund exchanged a look, then they chuckled. “You actually believed that? My, you’ve gotten a lot stupider, Elspeth!”

Edmund. Winthrop. How dare you trick me? “That was your idea, wasn’t it, Edmund? All just to prank me?”

Elspeth suspected Edmund first because she knew how cheeky he could be. But this time, Edmund didn’t confess. Instead, he rolled his eyes. “You can’t pin the blame on me just because of your stereotypes. It could’ve been Elias. He’s not exactly innocent.”

Elias shot Edmund a glare. “You’re the older brother here. Can’t you cover my *ss?”

Edmund extended his hand and smacked Elias’ head. “As if. I didn’t even cover the Winthrop brothers when they needed me to. Why should I do it for you?”

They’re so childish. Amused, Elspeth laughed. “You’re taking this well, Edmund. Don’t you care about the Winthrops?”

Edmund stopped smiling. “I’m not part of that family. It’s a fact, and I can’t deny it. However, that would mean all this fighting against Callum had been for nothing. I’m a bit miffed, to be honest.”

You still want to fight him right now? Elspeth’s lips twitched. But it’s good. At least they can get along now.

Edmund knew what Elspeth was thinking, and he sneered. “Don’t think I’m going to get along with him. Now that I’m not part of the Winthrops, I don’t have to hold back anymore. I can fight him with all my might.”

“And even then, you’d still lose,” muttered Elspeth.

Edmund heard it, and his face fell. “Elspeth!”

Elspeth held her laughter back and changed the topic. “Why don’t I take you to Mr. Irving’s place? You want to see your father, don’t you?”

The light in Edmund’s eyes dimmed. “I do, but…” Edmund sighed. “But Mom might be heartbroken when she finds out. I’m not Arthur. I can’t just up and leave my family.”
