Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Chapter 294

Elspeth was going to tell Gilbert that Ginna was engaged, but after that conversation, she gave up on that idea.Once the party was over, Irving settled all matters for Elspeth as soon as he could, including getting her flight ticket. The next day, Irving, Elias, and Elspeth returned to Damoria. The moment they disembarked, Elspeth made her way to the hospital Callum was in. Elias went along as he wanted to see who Callum was.They got a ride to the hospital, and once they arrived, Elspeth ran around asking where Callum was. The moment she got to Callum’s ward, she heard sounds of cries coming from within. Worried, she entered and was met with a pale Callum lying on the bed. Even his lips were pale. Beside him were Margot, who was crying and looking despondent, and Max.“I-I’m back, Margot,” Elspeth said.The moment Margot met Elspeth’s eyes, Margot pounced on her and cried in her embrace. “Elspeth, he’s been out for ten days. I’ve gotten him the best doctors, but none of them could wake him up! What if he’s gone? What should I do?”Elspeth’s heart went out to Margot. “It’s alright, Margot. I’ll save him no matter what. He’s my fiancé. I will not abandon him.” Elspeth closed her eyes, hiding her pain and tears, then she took a deep breath. “Let me see him. I need to check on him to see what I can do.”Elspeth put on a set of sterile clothes and gloves, then she checked Callum inch by inch. Every wound and injury she found only hurt her heart more. His back was fractured, his body was covered in minute wounds, and he choked on seawater. It was a miracle he was still alive. “He’s heavily injured both internally and externally. His heart is affected as well, but don’t worry. I’m calling Sonny over to help. I will save him.”Margot felt more at ease after that guarantee. She stopped crying and realized there was a man in a mask and cap standing around. “Who is this?”“Elias. He saved me.”Elias took his mask off and grinned toothily. “Hi, I’m Elias.”Margot froze. “Edmund?”I expected this reaction. Elias shook his head. “I’m not Edmund, Mrs. Winthrop. I’m Elias.”But they look the same. Still in disbelief, Margot held Elias and took a closer look. Then she sighed. “Gosh. I would have thought you were Edmund if you hadn’t told me you were someone else. He has a mole at the corner of his eye. Yeah, you’re not him.”“A question, if I may. When was your son, Edmund, born?”“Eighteenth of March, nineteen ninety-nine.”That’s my birthday. We were born on the same day of the same month of theBelongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

same year. This settles it. Edmund is my twin. Something glinted in Elias’ eyes. “We even share the same birthday. My mother was pregnant with twins, but one didn’t make it. Why, now I am starting to think Edmund might just be my twin brother.” Elias thought it was a coincidence, but Margot thought otherwise. There are no coincidences. I was only pregnant with one boy, and the checkup couldn’t be wrong. So… Margot didn’t continue that thought. She didn’t want to imagine that Edmund might not be her son. Arthur’s betrayal had broken her heart while Callum was in danger. She could not lose another son now.Margot had conflicting emotions, but Elspeth thought she was worried about Callum, so she didn’t explain anything. “I’ll call Sonny and get him here as soon as possible.” She left the ward, dodged the crowd, and called Sonny. “Hey.”Sonny didn’t recognize Elspeth’s number at first. “I’m not going. I’m living peacefully in the mountains, and I’m never going to save anyone ever ag—Hey, no takebacks! And you, stop talking to him. Just watch the game quietly!”“You really need to hold back on your chess games, Sonny. I can’t believe you’ve forgotten about me!” Elspeth gritted her teeth. You’re not living in the mountains, you old git. You’re living in a random neighborhood abroad and playing chess all day with your friends. I can’t believe you’re lying to me.Sonny knew it was Elspeth. He just wanted to joke, and he chuckled. “Sorry, girl. I’m in the middle of a game. Why don’t we talk la—”“It’s urgent. Come over to Damoria’s town hospital in three hours.”Sonny was upset. “You can’t do this to me. I’m in the middle of a game. I’m not your servant, g—”“Two hours, fifty-eight minutes, and forty-six seconds.”Elspeth then heard the howls of the winds coming from the other end of the phone. Whoa, talk about running like the wind. Elspeth’s lips twitched. Maybe I shouldn’t be too hard on him. “I’ll play some chess with you when I have time.”That swept Sonny’s bad mood away. “I’m holding you to that!”Elspeth was the one he wanted to play chess with. These old guys were bad at it.Elspeth checked the time. Two and a half hours later, Sonny texted, “I’m at the entrance. Lead the way.”Elspeth texted the ward number to him. “Come over yourself.” She returned to Callum’s ward.Callum was dying. It was why she wanted Sonny to come over as soon as possible. She wasn’t skilled enough to treat Callum. Or to be precise, she wasn’t skilled enough to nurse him back to full health and leave no complications behind. She remembered that Sonny had a Soulsaver Pill. I must get it from him no matter what.When Sonny entered the ward, the first thing he saw was Elspeth smiling at him.“Hey, Sonny.” Elspeth

approached Sonny and took his suitcase. “Sorry for the short notice. You must be tired. Here, have a seat.” She then handed him a glass of water.However, Sonny knew what she was getting at. “What do you want this time?”“Alright, I’ll cut to the chase then. I want your Soulsaver Pill.”Sonny spewed a mouthful of water out.
