Chapter 490 Go Get a Divorce

The moment the idea occurred to her, even Elspeth couldn't keep a straight face. Noticing Callum's expression had darkened, she couldn't help but ask, "Are you all right?"

"How can I be all right?" Callum countered as his expression turned thunderous.

If what Helia told them was true, then Elspeth and he might be cousins. The world has gone mad.

"By the way, Elsie, is he your boyfriend?" Helia was overjoyed to reunite with her daughter. She wasn't aware of the situation going on.

Even though Elspeth was having difficulty keeping her emotions from showing on her face, she nodded nevertheless.

"Nice to meet you, young man. What's your name?" At learning the man was her daughter's boyfriend, Helia smiled wildly.

"Nice to meet you too, Miss Joneson. I'm Callum Winthrop."

Her smile froze at his introduction. "Did you say 'Winthrop'?"

"That's right, Miss Joneson. I'm the nephew of the man who assaulted you many years ago."

The smile vanished from her face in an instant.

As Callum said, it was years ago. The ripples in her heart at the moment had nothing to do with the anguish of being assaulted many years ago but with the pain to see Elspeth dating such a man.

Even though Callum wasn't the mastermind of the whole thing, Helia still remembered herself being extremely disgusted by the way the Winthrop Family reacted to it.

She couldn't entrust her daughter to a man born in such a family.
