Elspeth didn’t expect Callum to faint. She didn’t know what to do other than support his body and let him lean on

her.

She was at a loss. Then, a clear voice came from behind her.

“Elspeth? Why are you here?”

Spencer couldn’t help but feel sad when he saw the intimate scene between the two people in front of him.

He knew it wasn’t his place to ask about them, so he could only greet them like this.

“Spencer, Callum passed out, and he has a fever!” Her eyes were filled with panic.

“Come. I’ll help!” Spencer understood immediately and helped her carry Callum into the car.

“Thank you.”

“No worries. Do you want me to bring you to the hospital?”

Spencer couldn’t express how he felt. She even thanked him for helping a man, but he was unwilling to let go of any

chances to be alone with Elspeth.

The unconscious Callum didn’t count.

“You don’t have to.” She shook her head apologetically. She looked at Callum, who had passed out, and her heart

ached as she was not in the mood to talk. “You must be busy. You should get going.”

This was an underground black market. Spencer probably had something to do here. She didn’t want him to

accompany her and waste his time. She felt very apologetic for even troubling him in the first place.

Remembering that he had something to do, Spencer nodded, albeit a bit reluctant. “Alright, I will.”

With that, Elspeth said goodbye to him. She had wanted to send Callum to the hospital, but she saw how flushed his

face was, so she took him back to the Joneson Residence instead.

Just as she was helping Callum into the house, Michael, who was about to step out, stopped her. “What are you

doing?”

Although she didn’t want to interact with Michael, today was an exception. She explained, “Callum has a fever, and

no one was taking care of him, so I brought him back.”

It was okay for them to be intimate outside, but now, she had even brought him home!

Michael was naturally upset about this and grumbled, “As the president of the Winthrop Group, he doesn’t even

have a property in Konig? What’s the point of dating such a person?”

Elspeth didn’t want to argue with him, and Callum’s body was hanging weakly on her shoulders. She was desperate

to bring him in so he could rest. Therefore, she didn’t bother arguing with Michael.

“I won’t allow him to enter the Joneson Residence!” Michael roared, seeming to be insinuating something.

“If you don’t let him in, I’ll leave with him.”

She knew Michael disapproved of Callum, so she turned around and walked out.

“Elspeth! What is the meaning of this?” Michael was trembling with anger.

He really didn’t understand why his granddaughter was being so disobedient. It was like she didn’t care about her

grandfather’s feelings at all.

What did she think he was doing this for?

He just wanted Elspeth to marry an excellent man!

How was this Callum guy worthy enough for her?

Her expression became colder when she noticed Callum wincing in pain. “I’ve made it very clear. If you don’t like

Callum, I’ll go back to Damoria with him.”

Michael took a deep breath and asked, “What about Frank?”

“It’s your call.”

Her words were ruthless.

“Okay, okay!”

His face turned red with anger. He could only obey her wishes for the sake of his precious grandson. “You can let

Callum stay here today, but he has to leave the Joneson Residence after he wakes up!”

After all, Frank was still lying on the hospital bed. If his back couldn’t heal, his life would be ruined.

Elspeth’s eyes were trained on Callum, and she didn’t spare a look at Michael. “Alright. I’ll bring him in, then.”

With that, she no longer bothered herself with Michael, who was almost exploding with anger, and left instantly.

Michael’s assistant stood next to him, looking perturbed. “Old Mr. Joneson, what should we do? If this continues, she

will certainly end up married to Callum.”

Michael held his breath and said in a quiet voice, “It’s okay. This is just a phase. When I introduce a better man to

Elspeth, she will understand my efforts.”

Right then, he remembered something, and he asked, “I heard that the boy from the Carr Family has returned to

Blaydal. When you have time, make an appointment with him. Let him and Elspeth meet.”

The assistant understood what he meant and commented with a smile, “Old Mr. Joneson, you’re very wise. She will

definitely see your efforts.”

Michael narrowed his eyes. There was an unreadable look in his eyes. “I hope so. I really hope she won’t follow her

mother’s path.”

In the room, Elspeth put Callum down on the bed and carefully tucked him in.

She looked at his closed eyes and felt an indescribable emotion in her heart.

She got up to prepare some hot towels for him. Before she placed them on his forehead, he grabbed her hand

tightly, and she couldn’t move.

“Callum—”

Before she could finish speaking, he tugged at her hand, and she lost her balance. She fell directly on him.

Elspeth noticed the slight tremble in Callum’s tightly shut eyes and figured she was causing him pain by pressing

down on him. She was just about to get up when he suddenly opened his eyes. There was an indescribable

gentleness in his gaze.

“I heard everything.”

She looked up at him with a look of astonishment.

“I heard what you said to Old Mr. Joneson.”

Elspeth thought of what she said, and her face turned red. “I didn’t say anything. Pretend you didn’t hear anything.”

Callum laughed weakly at that. “Why are you embarrassed for speaking up about your love?”

“Oh, shut it!”

She was furious and smacked his chest softly. Suddenly, a pained expression flashed across his face.

“Callum, are you in pain?”

Elspeth sensed something was wrong, and she wanted to lift his shirt, but Callum stopped her. “I’m okay. I was

messing with you. It doesn’t hurt at all.”

“You’re lying.”

Suspicion rose within her, and she lifted his shirt only to see a bandaged wound. There was blood seeping through

the bandage.

Callum watched as the suspicion in her eyes faded into a pained look. He pulled his shirt down quickly to cover it.

“It’s okay. It’s just a small injury. I’ll be fine.”

Elspeth didn’t listen to his dismissive words. With a hint of anger in her tone, she inquired, “What’s going on? Tell me

the truth.”

Seeing that he remained silent after a while, she raised her voice impatiently as she asked, “Callum, are you going

to tell me or not?!”
