Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

Elspeth did not have a good time in the bungalow over the following days. She was forced into eating

various kinds of food and having her weight measured, yet things did not go as Jordan expected. Her

body weight did not change but instead began to decrease.

One day when her blood had just been drawn and she felt very weak, someone came in to deliver her

meals. She thought it was the butler but as she focused on the person, she realized it was a young girl.

She looked pale and sickly, yet her eyes were bright and she looked very sweet and attractive.

“Who are you?” Before Elspeth could ask the question, the girl did it first.

“I’m Elspeth Lynwood.” Elspeth looked at her and made a bold assumption. “Who’re you?”

The girl smiled shyly. “I’m Angie Moone.”

“What’s your relationship with Jordan?”

The girl froze at the mention of him. “He’s my boyfriend.”

“So, you’re his first love?”

She grew more embarrassed at the question. “I am, but why are you here?”

Elspeth’s limbs had been cuffed, which looked somewhat terrifying. Angie hadn’t had much life

experience since she had been under Jordan’s protection in the bungalow after becoming of age, and

the sight scared her a little.

Sensing her kindness, Elspeth immediately realized that this was someone that she could recruit and

abruptly put on a hurt expression. “I was captured. Can you help me?”

When it came to such a young girl, eliciting her sympathy should be sufficient.

“That b*stard Jordan kidnapped you?” Angie stared at Elspeth, who looked close to tears, and asked

sympathetically, “Don’t cry. Can you tell me why he did that?”

Elspeth glanced at her weakly, sounding pained. “Because of you.”

Angie was stunned as suspicion rose inside her. “Is he planning on using your blood for my blood

transfusion?”

Elspeth nodded, remaining silent.

“That b*stard—” Angie’s voice immediately started shaking. “He told me yesterday that I will have a

blood donor soon and it’ll be donated voluntarily by someone approaching death. I didn’t think…”

She looked at Elspeth, whose wrists had already become blistered due to her lengthy capture, and felt

more guilt and dismay. “Don’t worry, I will never use your blood. Let me talk with Jordan and I’ll discuss

this with him properly.”

Elspeth opened her mouth. “Or you can help me—”

The door opened before she could finish. Elspeth immediately had a bad feeling when she saw Jordan

standing in the doorway.

When he saw Angie inside the room, a look of surprise crossed his features. “Angie, you—”

Angie rose at once, looking furious. “Jordan, how can you do this? Elspeth is a living, breathing person,

yet you want her as a donor for my blood transfusion?”

Jordan did not show any reaction, nor did he look awkward at being exposed. “But I have no other

way.”

“So, you can just kill someone in exchange for my life?” Angie’s accusing voice echoed in the room,

making Elspeth feel touched. Elspeth was definitely willing to donate blood for Angie’s blood

transfusion if Angie really had a terminal illness and was about to die.

“Don’t worry, her life isn’t valuable.” He moved forward and gently put an arm around Angie’s waist as if

he was afraid of breaking her. “Don’t you want to live like a normal person and not take your

medication? I promised to heal you, so I will never let anything happen to you.”

Angie’s tears began to fall. “But I don’t want this. I want to live like a normal person without sacrificing

others.”

“Elspeth’s weak and has a terminal illness. Don’t feel so guilty.”

She shouted angrily, “Liar!”

Jordan moved his hand upward slowly to stroke the back of her head. In the next instant, he used a

knife hand strike to make her faint.

“She’s too kind and will easily be fooled by you.” He carried Angie’s limp body and looked at her face

lovingly. “I will save her, no matter the price.”

He took Angie away, and the girl never showed up again after that.

Soon, Elspeth’s weight reached the stage where she could undergo the surgery. She was taken for a

shower before being laid on the operating table. Her hands and feet were bound by heavy cuffs,

making her unable to move. She could only wait for someone to save her.

She was injected with the anesthetic and as she watched the thin needle about to penetrate her skin,

she closed her eyes helplessly.

However, the expected feeling of pain did not come. Instead, there came the sound of the door

crashing open. Elspeth opened her eyes to see Callum standing in the doorway, looking thunderous

while being accompanied by a group of people.

Jordan, clad in his protective suit, looked furious. When he saw Callum preparing to approach, he

grabbed the scalpel from the surgeon’s hand and placed it against Elspeth’s throat.

“Callum, you are really slow.”

“It took a week to investigate all 108 properties under your name.” Callum sounded calm, the dark

circles under his eyes unmistakable. “But I arrived just in time, didn’t I?”

He was panting in a way that showed he had run here. The scalpel pressed against Elspeth’s throat

made his heart drop.

“Just in time? I don’t think so. I always succeed in anything I want to do.” Jordan smiled savagely. “If

the operation fails, Elspeth cannot survive either.”

Callum’s voice was stern. “Jordan, you’re a psychopath!”

Jordan threw his head back and laughed. “I’m a psychopath? I’m just doing it for someone I love and

so are you. Why are you calling me one?”

“It took two years for me to find such a perfect match for Angie to treat her. She can finally live a happy

and healthy life. Why should I let Elspeth go just because you love her?” He looked nearly mad and the

gaze he leveled at Callum was bloodthirsty.

He then glanced coldly at Elspeth, gaze full of scorn and even a hint of disgust. “If I let her go now, then

what’s the point of me using nearly half a year to get close to her, huh?”

Callum’s pupils contracted as his heart raced, but he couldn’t show too much panic or concern.

“Jordan, please stop right now or you will regret it.”

Jordan’s lips formed a wild smile. “What do I have to regret?”

In the next instant, his expression changed as he saw someone in front of him. Angie, who should have

been unconscious, had suddenly appeared beside Callum.
