Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

Chapter 330

Elspeth turned around and took a few steps forward, her eyes fixed firmly on the man in front of her.

“Callum, are you dumb? Why couldn’t I tell you had a thing for such establishments when we were

together? I didn’t think you’d come to this kind of place to find a woman for yourself.”

Whenever she thought about the fact that Callum would come to such a place, her heart was filled with

disappointment.

However, he didn’t reply and rebuked sarcastically instead, “I didn’t realize that you’d work at a place like

this either!”

What a master at sarcasm! After a moment of thought, she felt that she could not beat him, and she was

at a disadvantage as well, so she decided to slip away. However, before she could run, Callum saw

through her thoughts.

The moment she turned around, he grabbed her collar, his cold voice sounding from behind. “Where are

you going? To serve someone else?”

“Anyone but you!” A wave of humiliation surging within her, she immediately whipped around and bit his

hand viciously.

She was certain that she had mustered all of her strength, but he still did not budge an inch.

“Answer my question.”

“Answer what?” Elspeth demanded desperately. Yet, as she spoke, her eyes flashed with tears. “What

the hell do you want? It was clearly you who said you didn’t like me anymore, it was also you who

personally admitted that the two of us broke up and canceled our engagement, and it was even you who

forced me to leave by giving me the cold shoulder. Don’t you think it’s ridiculous to say these things

now?”

Callum rarely saw her cry, and he had seldom seen an outburst from her like this. As he watched her tear

up and yell at him, his heart suddenly ached fiercely. She was right; it really seemed to be his fault.

Slowly, he let go of her. As he looked at the teeth marks on the back of his hand, he felt a sharp pain and

frowned.

Realizing that she had lost control of her emotions, Elspeth took a deep breath and said indifferently, “I

got a little too emotional earlier. Just pretend you didn’t hear anything.”

“It’s fine. You weren’t wrong.”

As soon as he spoke, she instantly felt as if they were strangers.

“If there’s nothing else, I really need to go work now,” Elspeth replied politely, her demeanor turning

courteous yet detached.

Callum didn’t like this feeling. When he had just lost his feelings for her, he was somewhat averse to her

deliberate approaches, but when she truly distanced herself from him, his heart suddenly began to grow

apprehensive again, as if her leaving was not a good thing for him.

Elspeth turned around and was about to leave when he grabbed her hand again. He decided to follow

his heart.

“You’re not allowed to smile at anyone else.”

Whenever he thought about the possibility of her smiling and flirting with another man, and even taking

the next step with them, his heart boiled with fury.

Annoyed, Elspeth shook his hand off. “On what grounds are you controlling me? And who are you to me

anyway? That was my first customer since I worked here. It’s all your fault for disrupting my work.”

Her first customer? That means she hasn’t done anything with another man yet.

At that thought, Callum’s anger dispersed significantly, and he stared at her intensely with his dark eyes.

“How much do you charge per night? I’ll book you for an entire month.”

“What?” Elspeth froze. Why was it different from what she’d imagined? Shouldn’t he be leaving in a fit of

anger right now because of her provocations? How did things turn out like this? Is Callum’s boundaries

really that… low?

Although Elspeth secretly thought to herself in shock, she still said stubbornly, “I’m really expensive. Are

you sure you can afford it?”

“Why? Do I have to sell off Winthrop Group just so I can afford you?” Callum gradually leaned in, asking

in a suggestive tone.

His close proximity caused her ears to flush bright red. “So, what if you sell off the company? You might

not be able to afford me even if you sell yourself.”

“Then, tell me, how much do you want?”

The gears turning in her head, Elspeth decided to give him an outrageous demand. “Since you said so,

let’s decide on a lucky number.”

“Oh?” Callum caressed a strand of her hair, his interest piqued.

“How about 7 million per night? Sounds about right to me.”

When he heard her request, his expression stiffened. “You really don’t hold back, huh.”

Elspeth thought that would be sufficient to make him back off, but he unexpectedly became even more

motivated.

“That’s too little. How about 77 million? What do you think?”

She rolled her eyes. “You’re kidding me.”

Callum reached out and held her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze. “You started it.”

Elspeth’s face instantly flushed red. “I was just trying to keep you away from me.”

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, and the more aggrieved she felt. He was the one

who told her not to provoke him in the first place, so how was it her fault now? Callum, you jerk! None of

the men in the Winthrop Family are any good!

At that thought, she suddenly felt a calloused finger brushing past her eyes. Surprisingly, Callum was

wiping her tears. She didn’t even realize she had been crying, and her tears slowly rolled down from the

corners of her eyes.

I’ve already cried twice today. How embarrassing.

“You can hate me and dislike me, but you can’t stay here and do these things, understand?”

Callum had never been so gentle to her after his great change in personality, and if it wasn’t because it

was actually happening to her, she would never have dared to dream about it. Elspeth froze in her

tracks, at a loss for what she should do to express her feelings.

“I have my reasons for being here.”

Callum frowned. “What reasons require you to sacrifice your body like this?”

“Look, I’m not sacrificing my body. I have my own problems to solve.” Elspeth glared at him, her tone

unkind as she continued, “But you showing up ruined my plans, and now I have to figure out how to

contact that man again.”

That man had what she needed, and if Callum hadn’t just messed things up, she would have been able

to lure him into the room and threaten him, forcing him to hand over the things she needed. Just her luck!

“Tell me. I can help you with anything,” Callum offered, unexpectedly enthusiastic.

Elspeth couldn’t hold herself back from teasing him. “Why are you a concerned citizen today, Mr.

Winthrop? Stop behaving like that. I’m not really used to it.”

“Alright, enough talking back. Put something on and come with me.” Callum felt irritated every time he

looked at her revealing clothes, so he simply took off his suit and draped it over her body.

“Forget it.” Elspeth shook her head, avoiding the suit jacket that he had handed over as she said, “I

already told you that I have things to do here. I’m not leaving.”

Just as the two were at a standstill, a voice suddenly sounded from behind them. “What are you two

doing here?”

Calm, gentle, and firm. Those were the feelings Elspeth genuinely felt upon hearing his voice again.
