Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me novel Chapter 318

Chapter 318

When Arthur noticed her slightly red eyes, he couldn't bear to refuse her request.

"Sure. Since you want to leave today, let's leave today."

" What about my mom?"

"Don't worry about it. I will keep my word." Arthur subconsciously reached out to pat her head, but she dodged liis hand. The disappointment he felt made his tone sound a little impatient.

"Alright then. I'll buy the tickets."

After saying that, Elspeth got up and was about to return to her room, but Arthur stopped her. He was frowning when asking. "Have you forgotten that you're supposed to be dead? How can you buy tickets? Do you want Old Mr. Joneson to find out you're still alive?"

Elspeth's mind was a mess, so she couldn't think clearly. When she heard what Arthur said, she became even more depressed.

She sat back on the couch, and the soft material helped subside the rage inside her a little.

"What do you suppose we do?"

After lighting his cigarette, Arthur breathed out a puff of smoke before suggesting, "We'll leave by ship. Once we reach another country tomorrow, we can take a plane to Eden."

Since there were many people whom they knew in Blaydal. they couldn't go out in public and fly to Eden.

"But we might have to trouble your mom to follow us on this long journey. Also, you have to find a reason that she would believe."

Elspeth's eyes glistened. "Don't worry. I have an idea."

Surprised, Arthur stared at her and asked. " What is it? Don't tell me you're going to send the helve after the hatchet and tell her everything?"

"Do I look that stupid?" Elspeth rolled her eyes. "Do you remember Elias Cole? He's the man I met after you and Emma forced me to jump off the cliff. It was also he who saved me and brought me up onto his cargo ship."

When mentioning that incident, Elspeth still felt resentment for the two culprits.

As she expected, Arthur seemed a little uneasy.

"So, what are you trying to say?"

"Since the Coles are willing to set me free, perhaps they will be willing to help me. I'm considering visiting Mr. Cole and asking him to help me secretly leave the country."

While she said that, she had a determined smile on her face.

After listening to her plan, Arthur instantly understood. "I never thought that it wasn't me who got you out of there easily but that they never intended for you to many Edmund's man. But even so, how are you going to explain things to your mom?"

Elspeth froze as if she were thinking about the feasibility of her plan.

"You don't have to worry about that. Mom has a slight connection with the Coles, so it might not be a problem as long as I have a clear explanation and involve a bit of her connection with the Coles."

Surprised, Arthur smiled. "You're smart."

How can her small mind think so quickly?

"Of course. I'm smart. Do you think every woman in the world is stupid like Emma and has to rely on men to do everything?" Even when agreeing with him and elevating herself, Elspeth didn't forget to belittle Emma.

Emma was mean. Elspeth wouldn't miss an opportunity to ridicule her.

This time, Arthur didn't show any intentions of standing up for Emma. Instead, he jeered. "It seems like you have quite a huge grudge against Emma."

While hugging a pillow, Elspeth looked at Arthur sternly. "Arthur, what state of mind are you in to ask this question? Don't tell me you think I only have a slight grudge against you?"

Arthur froze for a moment but continued to smile as he replied. "We've been spending so much time together that I almost forgot that we used to be nemeses."

Hearing that, Elspeth immediately corrected him. "It's not 'used to,' we still are and will still be."

Then, Arthur suddenly pinned her down on the couch. It happened so quickly that Elspeth was caught off guard.
