Chapter 414 Discovers the Wedding Invitation by Chance

There was a car with its engine started next to Elspeth's. Drenched, she approached the vehicle. "Excuse me, could you—"

Halfway through her words, she raised her head to meet those deep eyes, which put her into a trance. Due to the rain, she appeared forlorn because of her soaked clothes and messy hair.

To face Callum in such a state was a humiliation to her.

She swallowed every word that reached the tip of her tongue, but he did not mind as he prodded, "Yes? What's wrong?"

"Nothing. I got the wrong person." She wheeled around, heading back to her car. Today's not my day. Why is he here? He will never give me a lift for sure. Instead of humiliating myself in the rain, I better wait for the rain to stop in my car.

Watching the drizzle pour into torrential rain, she became anxious. Just when will it stop?

While her mind was stuffed with jumbled thoughts, she could hear footsteps pattering through the water puddles.

Knock, knock.

Someone tapped on her car window. She wound down the window to see Callum standing in the rain with a black umbrella as his indifferent eyes looked into hers. She could not discern his face clearly because of the heavy rain, but his voice rang into her ears loud and clear. "Why didn't you bring an umbrella with you?"

She smiled wryly. "Are you here to nag me?"
