Chapter 145

Worrying that Yelena might overthink, Elspeth cast a consoling glance at her. “Don’t mind him. He has always been

this way; don’t take his words to heart.”

Hearing this, Yelena, who had been maintaining a calm front earlier, could no longer control her sadness as tears

welled up in her eyes.

“I am fine,” she said while sniffing, pretending to be fine.

“Don’t worry. I’ll tell him off when I get home later!”

“Okay.”

Elspeth then quickly left with Callum, worrying that if they stayed on any longer, they wouldn’t be able to coax

Yelena once she started wailing.

When they returned to the car, Elspeth found Max sulking alone in the backseat. “Why did you say that just now?

Do you really not like her?” Elspeth couldn’t control her urge and ask.

“I don’t like her, of course. Would anyone like her? She’s so silly and has no brains at all.”

“You’re still being so obstinate, huh? If that’s the case, why do you need to worry about whether a man is in her

house or not? When did you start showing such a keen interest in other people’s affairs, Max?”

Elspeth observed Max’s slightly relaxed expression and continued, “Let me guess. You’re angry now because she

chased you out but not that man, am I right?”

Max opened his mouth, wanting to retort, but he was at a loss for words.

“You’re overthinking it. Hex is sleeping in another room. You don’t have to worry too much.”

Elspeth was simply making a casual remark, but Callum secretly noted it down.

Yes, I admit that I just can’t stand her being alone with other men, even her cousin, but I’m a nobody and have no

say in her matter. This explained why Max could only swallow his rage. Wait. Is this an indication that I like her?

Max wasn’t sure as well. He went silent for a while before raising his head to look at Callum and said, “Callum, send

me to Luna Bar.”

He couldn’t understand his feelings and wanted to have some alcohol to trigger his heart and emotions.

Callum understood what Max meant and did not stop him. After sending him to Luna Bar and watching him enter,

Callum turned his head and looked at Elspeth.

Elspeth felt uneasy having his gaze firmly fixed on her. “Why are you looking at me?” she asked, her brows

furrowed.

“How did you know that Hex is sleeping?”

Elspeth’s heart sank when she heard this.

It was too late for her to lie now. “I was brought to a room earlier, and that room happens to be Hex’s,” she said

truthfully.

That was when she saw Hex sleeping soundly.

Callum felt relieved hearing this, but his expression remained displeased.

“Are you still unhappy? Why?”

He moved closer to her without saying anything, but his heart softened when he saw her back away due to being

startled.

“I am jealous.”

That stunned Elspeth. She couldn’t figure out why Callum said so for a moment.

“Jealous? Why?”

With a gentle voice and a light groan, he answered, “You were in the same room with him and even saw him

sleeping. That makes me jealous.”

After speaking, he felt his words were insufficient and continued, “You did not even see me sleeping before.”

His entire speech left Elspeth speechless. Why did he become so… childish? He was the serious-looking CEO of the

Winthrop Group only a moment ago, but now he acts like a forlorn child who just had his favorite toy taken away,

staring pitifully at me. Such an adorable contrast he had!

Elspeth hurriedly swallowed her saliva and responded, “No, that was a mere incident. I didn’t stare at his sleeping

face; I just gave him a passing glance. I then left right away as well.”

Finally, Callum nodded satisfyingly after hearing what Elspeth said. He then straightened his body and continued

driving.

After all that had happened today, both of them were exhausted when they reached home and went to bed early.

When Elspeth opened her eyes the following morning, she saw Callum sitting in front of her wearing a suit.

“Holy! You almost scared me to death!”

She was given such a fright that she nearly yelled obscenities, but Callum ignored her and said straightforwardly,

“Something happened to Max and Yelena.”

All sleepiness Elspeth vanished when she heard that. “What happened?” she asked, her eyes wide open.

Callum did not say anything in response. Instead, he took his phone, clicked on Twitter, and handed it to her. She

immediately noticed some words written in bold. It read, ‘Female Star Yelena Is Now a Joke After Boyfriend Caught

Flirting in a Bar.’

Underneath the post were details about how Yelena and Max met, photographs of their accidental kiss, and a photo

of Max in a bar late at night with a gorgeous woman next to him.

All three of their faces were mosaiced, but it served no purpose. Everyone knew who they were.

Elspeth immediately began to panic. This would be more difficult to handle than the news of them both kissing.

The comments below were a mess as well, with a lot of humiliating words directed against Yelena.

‘Yelena is just a miserable woman who is in no way deserving to be a celebrity.’

‘She appears glamorous, but look, she is secretly in a relationship and even got cheated on. Serves her right!”

‘What? My goddess is dating someone! I’m not liking her anymore!

‘Even if she is single, you have no chance with her. Please be rational.’

There were many more who were eager to add insult to injury as well.

‘I told you guys that she has a messy private life! A few days ago, I saw her behaving intimately with another man

in front of her high school. That man is not Max!’

A photo of the back of Yelena and Finn was attached.

Some of them spoke up for Yelena, but the matter soon escalated and the supportive remarks were swiftly

overshadowed by the humiliating ones.

As Max and the unknown woman were commoners and did not have any fans, they did not get attacked as much.

Most of them were Yelena’s haters using this opportunity to defame her.

Elspeth quickly gave Yelena a call, but the line was busy. Then, she called Max, but the call was not unanswered as

well. Max most likely isn’t up yet, whereas Yelena… her telephone line is probably being bombarded by her

manager and fans at the moment.

Callum seldom got interested in the entertainment industry, but this time, he too, had a headache when he saw the

news.

“We have to go to Yelena’s house now. Callum, send someone to look for Max. Make sure that he won’t be made

used by anyone this time. The incident now is definitely staged. I’ll ask Harper to find out who the mastermind is,

and then liaise with the public relations team to handle it.”

After Elspeth calmly voiced out her analysis, she was surprised to see Callum looking profoundly at her.

“Why? Are my words confusing?”

Callum shook his head in response. With his gaze fixed firmly on her, he said, “You… You seem to have a thorough

understanding of the entertainment industry’s dark side. Do you have an entertainment company?”
