Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

This matter had been left unmentioned for a long time. In fact, Michael had always tried to hide it. Back

then, he thought of a way to send Callum’s uncle to prison, and then because it was a family scandal

and could not be publicized, he hid the matter away, so much so that the younger generation did not

know about this matter at all. At the mention of it again, Michael felt his heart seizing up fiercely.

Looking at Michael who was in obvious pain, Jordan knew that it was inappropriate to talk more about

it. He then casually spoke a few more words and left.

In the next few days, whenever Michael met Elspeth, he told her about how good Jordan was. Elspeth

naturally did not want to talk to him about this, so she simply stayed in the hospital to take care of

Frank.

At this moment, she was lying on the hospital bed, eating melon seeds and playing games in a leisurely

manner. Frank was dumbfounded as he said, “Elspeth, do you ever take my feelings into

consideration?”

Elspeth had her headphones on while playing the game, so she did not hear anything. Frank became

annoyed and took off her headphones. “Elspeth, respect me a little, okay?”

Elspeth finally heard Frank’s accusation, but her eyes still did not leave her phone screen as she

casually replied, “How am I disrespecting you? I rushed over here just to take care of you.”

“And then you’re the one lying in bed right now; what about me?” Frank’s voice carried a hint of

indignation.

Elspeth took advantage of the momentary cooldown after taking five kills to look at Frank, only to see

him wearing a hospital gown and holding an IV drip in his hand with a sulk. On the contrary, Elspeth

was lying on the bed that belonged to Frank in a leisurely way…

“Sorry, I was too used to lying down when playing the game.” Elspeth smiled awkwardly and jumped

down from the bed.

Frank began to nag, “I just went to the bathroom for a moment and you were already lying in my bed.

Who’s taking care of who?”

Elspeth felt a headache when listening to him. “Well, I was just lying down for a bit. Don’t be so petty.”

Frank chuckled, the annoyance in his eyes clearly obvious. “Heh.”

As the two bantered with each other, a figure in white soon walked in.

Looking at the grinning Jordan, Elspeth thought that she had to face what would come head-on no

matter what.

“Elspeth, you’re also here?”

Even the way Jordan addressed her had changed. At first, he still cautiously called her “Miss Elspeth”,

but today he started calling her “Elspeth”.

Elspeth greeted him with a fake smile. “Can’t I be here?”

Jordan choked when he heard that. Surprise flitted across his heart, but he still spoke calmly without

any change in tone. “Of course, you can. It’s just fate that we’re meeting here.”

“Is that so? I think it is bad luck. Ah, I’m just joking…”

Not joking.

Frank was smiling, but when he heard such rude words, his smile froze on his face. Even if you don’t

like him, you shouldn’t say something like that!

Nevertheless, Jordan did not seem to care. He looked at Frank with a face of concern and asked, “Are

you feeling better? I heard you were injured. Because of that, I wanted to come back to visit you, but I

kept getting delayed by matters.”

Seeing Jordan so concerned about himself, Frank also felt quite warm. “I’m fine now thanks to

Elspeth.”

Their two families were close, and Jordan had played with Frank before during childhood.

Elspeth smiled wickedly by the side and said, “If I knew the two of you were in cahoots, I should have

given you an extra terrible medicine.”

She had thought that Frank was on her side and she didn’t expect that the two of them were childhood

friends. The two of them noticed the wariness in Elspeth’s eyes. It was clear whom Frank was siding

with.

He glanced at Elspeth and then at Jordan before giving them an impish smile. “If Grandpa wants to let

you two be together, I agree!”

As soon as Frank said this, he felt two gazes on him. Jordan’s gaze was one of surprise, while

Elspeth’s was malicious.

“Frank, your life is still in my hands. If you talk nonsense again, I’ll really poison you to death!”

Clearly, her threat was very effective because Frank shrank back and spoke in a low voice. “I’m doing

this for your own good. After all, Jordan’s family is wealthy, and he’s my childhood friend, so I can

guarantee that he has a good character…”

Elspeth lifted the fruit knife in her hand with an enigmatic smile. Seeing the sharp blade, Frank hurriedly

stopped talking.

“Well, if Elspeth doesn’t like me, then I’ll just go.” Jordan stood up and prepared to leave, looking more

or less gloomy.

Elspeth smiled lightly. “Goodbye.”

Jordan thereafter left, and when Frank looked at his slightly lonely figure, he couldn’t help but say, “This

is the first time I’ve ever seen him like this. Before this, if anyone bullies him, he’ll just screw up the

other person’s family business.”

Elspeth pretended to be surprised. “Wow, Jordan is such a gangster, huh?”

Hearing this, Frank rolled his eyes. “Actually, I think that you and Callum being together is not a good

thing.”

“Why?”

Frank sighed. “You know that Grandpa doesn’t like Callum, so you will definitely have to go through

many trials and tribulations with Callum, and these trials are naturally not yours to bear.”

Elspeth’s heart trembled when she heard that; she had known it for some time.

“Otherwise, why would Winthrop Group run into problems? Elspeth, you’re very smart, so you’re

probably more aware than I am.”

Elspeth came to realize the truth after this reminder by Frank. However, she just couldn’t understand

how Callum had offended Michael to the point where Michael disliked Callum from the bottom of his

heart.

“If you really want what’s good for Callum, you should go along with what Grandpa wants. After all,

Callum is in the dark, and he will have to suffer a lot.”

Although Frank also did not like Callum because he always felt that Callum had an odd and confusing

temperament, Callum treated Elspeth very well, and Frank refused to break them up forcefully.

“What benefit did Callum give you to care about him so much?” Elspeth raised her eyebrows, a little

surprised.

The corners of Frank’s lips twitched. “Elspeth, can’t you think of better things?”

Elspeth tilted her head, puzzled. “So, you like him now?”

Forget it…

Frank looked at Elspeth’s face, and for a moment, he didn’t know how to reply to her. However, after

Frank said that, Elspeth suddenly had a strong desire to return to Damoria. She said goodbye to Frank

and went to the airport alone, but just after she booked a ticket and went to wait at the gate, men from

the Joneson Residence had already found her.

The butler quickly stood in front of her, wiping the cold sweat from his brow. “Miss, don’t run around.

Come back with me.”

Elspeth looked at him coldly. “I can’t go anywhere, and I can only stay here in Blaydal, right?”

The butler didn’t know how to answer, so he could only carefully explain, “Yes, that should be the case,

but it’s not exactly so…”

Elspeth stood up; her tone was unpleasant. “So, what now? What are you going to do? Take me back

by force?”
