Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Chapter 119

“Elspeth, are you alright?”

The one who called was Callum. His voice sounded anxious, confirming his worry for her. He could see that the person in the news was her. Even when the picture was taken from afar, he immediately recognized the familiar figure lying on the tracks.

Meanwhile, Elspeth could not hold back her laughter. She pinched her voice so that he would not identify her. “I’m sorry, sir. The owner of this phone has passed away half an hour ago. May I know whom I’m speaking to?”

He froze for a moment. “I’m her boyfriend. Has she really passed away?”

Though she could not hear the emotion in his voice, she had a bad feeling about what was coming. “Yes, sir. She’s going to be cremated soon.”

“Elspeth, do you think this is funny?” Callum could not bear it anymore and exposed her lie.

Stunned, she asked, “How did you know it was me? I thought I did well.”

“How could I not recognize your voice?” He took a breath. “Also, don’t ever trick me again.”

His words sounded like he was exhorting his girlfriend.

“Have you been bored lately? Why are you suddenly so concerned about me?”

Without answering her question, he asked, “The first picture in the news. I saw Blake carrying you in his arms. Were the two of you at the amusement park?”

She could hear a trace of anger in his voice, and the air instantly turned awkward. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up. I still have something to do.”

After saying that, she immediately hung up and called Harper. “Hey. Could you help me deal with the trending hot topics?”

However, Harper seemed to have just woken up. He opened his eyes and looked at the hot topics unrelated to Elspeth. “What’s the matter? These had nothing to do with you.”

“What do you mean?” She pulled her phone away to look at today’s news. Just like what he said, the news articles about her had disappeared.

“Well, if that’s how it is, I don’t have to trouble you anymore.”

Seeming to have thought of something, Harper asked hesitantly, “Could it be Callum?”

Elspeth had also guessed that, but she was embarrassed to admit it before him. “That’s impossible. Alright, that’s all for now. Stop’being so curious.”

“Tsk! Elspeth, you must’ve guessed it was him too, right? I know you have some bias against him, but you have to admit that you do have feelings for him…”

Her face fell as she threatened, “Harper, another word from you and I’ll send you on a business trip to Birdia.”

“Elspeth, I was wrong. I won’t talk nonsense anymore and shut up. I’ll keep quiet, okay?”

She coughed softly. “Alright. You can continue with your work if there’s nothing else. I have some stuff to do.” After she said that, Harper sensibly hung up.

Having taken enough rest, Elspeth went downstairs as she wanted to leave early.

Nicholas and Anya were watching in downstairs and smiled when they saw her. “Miss Lynwood, did

you get a good rest?”

“You don’t have to call me Miss Lynwood, just Elspeth will be fine.” It sounded strange and estranged to her. “Oh, sure, Elspeth. Why don’t you stay for lunch? Lola has been wanting to have a meal with you.”

Elspeth looked around and did not see Blake anywhere, so she shook her head and rejected, “No need for that. I still have something to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now.”

“You must be looking for Mr. Blake, right? Lola insisted on bringing him to the garden. I think they’re still playing there.”

When Elspeth thought of the scene where a child was pulling on Blake, insisting that he play with her, she could not help but smile. “Alright. I’ll go check on them.”

Hearing that, Nicholas knew she had agreed to stay for lunch, so he looked at Anya and hinted at her to start cooking.

After excusing herself, Elspeth went to the garden alone. Just as she arrived, she saw Blake sitting on a cane chair with a chain of flowers in his hand, earnestly and patiently braiding a garland. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

A handsome actor braiding dainty flowers was such a huge contrast that it created an interesting scene.

“I didn’t know you had such a talent.” While watching his skillful actions, Elspeth thought it was childish and funny.

“This is nothing. You might not know it, but the hot-tempered Max used to be very shy when he was young. He liked all sorts of cute things, but the other three older brothers weren’t willing to make such things for him. I was the only one with a nice temper and learned to make all kinds of garlands for him.”

The thought of the manly Max Winthrop enjoying such things made Elspeth burst out laughing while holding her stomach.

At that moment, Lola returned with a bunch of flowers and handed them to Blake to make more garlands. “Elspeth, your boyfriend is amazing. The garlands he makes look so pretty!” When Lola mentioned him, her eyes were filled with admiration.

“Ahem… Boyfriend?” The moment Elspeth heard what Lola said, she almost lost her breath.

“It was Blake. He said he’s your boyfriend and that you will be getting married next year. It’s such a pity because I was thinking of introducing my older brother to you so that you can become my sister-in-law,

Lola was a little disappointed when she mentioned this matter and sighed heavily. “If that’s how it is, you two have to get along well. It’s not every day that you find a boyfriend who’s good at making garlands. You should

treat him well.”

That rendered Elspeth speechless.

“Calm down. Don’t listen to what he says. We’re not a couple.”

The little girl who had been sighing instantly perked up. “Is that true, Elspeth? Does that mean you can be with Frank? Let me tell you, Frank is very handsome. Though his personality is a little cold, many women are looking to capture his heart. He’ll be coming to Damoria tomorrow to pick us up. You should come!”

Elspeth was at a loss for words. How can such a little child who looks about seven to eight years old be so enthusiastic about being a matchmaker?

“You can’t agree to that!”

Blake became anxious. I haven’t even said anything, and that kid is thinking of introducing another man to Elspeth. Doesn’t that mean I’m going to have another love rival? No, that absolutely can’t happen!

“Why are you arguing with a child?” Elspeth rolled her eyes, wanting to slap him into reality.

Seeing that she did not reject the offer, Blake turned to threaten Lola, “If you dare to introduce a boyfriend to Elspeth, I won’t make any more garlands for you.”

However, Lola was smart and countered, “If you don’t make more garlands, I’ll introduce a new boyfriend to Elspeth!”

Meanwhile, Elspeth was speechless. Does anyone here care about my feelings?
