Chapter 551 Turning Your Back on Him

Arthur had a strong idea in his mind that he wanted to prove. The moment he pushed the door open, he was greeted by colors that shouldn’t have belonged to Blake’s room.

Margot explained next to him with some embarrassment, “This room belonged to Blake at first, but Elspeth moved in here afterward, no? That’s why she stayed in this room for a while.”

As expected, it’s the same as I thought, thought Arthur. He entered the room directly, walking around before his gaze fell upon a framed illustration lying on the desk. The illustration looked adorable, and it seemed to be a casual sketch by Elspeth. He gently stroked it as a hint of tenderness flitted across his face.

An uneasy thought crossed Margot’s mind when she saw him like this. Don’t tell me Arthur has feelings for Elspeth. At the thought of this, she immediately shook her head in an attempt to dispel the idea, but she couldn’t seem to get it out of her mind. In the end, she couldn’t help but ask, “Arthur, you just said you have something to discuss with Callum. What’s the matter, actually?”

“It’s about the acquisition of the Winthrop Group.”

Margot jumped at the word ‘acquisition.’ “Acquisition? What happened to the Winthrop Group? Why does it have to be acquired?”

Arthur purposely pretended to look very sorry. “There’s no way around it. The Winthrop Group appears to be going strong under Callum’s management, but in fact, it’s already rotten to the core. I can’t just sit back and watch it go bankrupt, right? It’s Dad’s life work, after all.”

He tried to make himself seem benevolent and great-hearted with these highsounding words, but how could Margot not figure out the intrigues and plots behind them? She wasn’t a fool, after all. “Arthur, you can’t do such a heartless thing. Callum is your brother.” She tried to sound as gentle as she could. “Callum has done everything he could to look after you over so many years, you know.
