Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Chapter 181

stared at him, feeling absolutely disgusted by the vulgar expression on his face.When she figured that the problem was almost resolved, she secretly kept away her recording pen and prepared to reconvene with Callum.“Mr. Black, let’s end things here for today. I have something going on later, so I have to leave now.”Elspeth was leaving before they even started their dinner. Zain was so stunned that he couldn’t find his voice for a moment. “The food has just been served. Why don’t you leave after the meal?”She turned back and smiled at him. “Mr. Black, I’ll invite you out for dinner again tomorrow. Let’s stop here today. I’m afraid I forgot to turn off the gas at home. An accident might occur if I return too late.”He understood the situation’s urgency, so he did not stop her. So, he could only watch her sashay away, already looking forward to their meeting tomorrow.As soon as Elspeth walked out of the restaurant, she immediately met Callum, who had come to pick her up. The two of them quickly entered the car in order to avoid Zain from catching up if he had a mind to do so. She held her phone as though she were offering up some priceless treasure. “I’ve already recorded everything he said earlier. This can be used as evidence.”“The recording alone is not enough.”They needed concrete proof in order to take down Alphascape once and for all.She blinked and pulled up something on her phone. “I installed a Bluetooth camera in my ring. Once I connect the ring to my phone, the photos will automatically be downloaded into my phone. So, everything should have been captured on record when I flipped through the account statements earlier.”A trace of surprise flashed through his eyes. “That’s absolutely brilliant.”“Of course. Whenever we steal confidential information, we have always used the Bluetooth ring I designed.”She was very confident in her creation.“We don’t want to expose these wrongdoings just yet. We need to find a suitable opportunity for maximum coverage of their misdeeds.” He analyzed calmly. “If we take the initiative to attack, it is very likely that we will end up being labeled as an enemy who is trying to provoke Alphascape or even be painted as slanderers. We need to wait until Alphascape makes a misstep.”She nodded in agreement. “That makes sense. Let’s return to the Joneson Residence first.”Callum drove Elspeth back to the Joneson Residence. A figure barreled toward them as soon as they stepped through the door.Elspeth jumped in fright, sweating profusely when Kenneth’s infinitely magnified face appeared before her.“You’re always not around whenever I decide to pay you a visit. Are you avoiding me on purpose?” Kenneth scowled deeply, and his tone was forceful.She suddenly felt like she was an irresponsible scumbag who slept around with the other party. Well, a female scumbag. Unfortunately, Callum seemed to have the same idea. His expression was quite hideous at the moment. “Elspeth, why don’t you explain to me just who this evil man is who sprang out of nowhere?”She opened her mouth. Just as she was about to explain that Kenneth was her elder brother, Kenneth began introducing himself. “I am not an evil man. I am Kenneth Joneson, the team leader of the number one FX Club in the country.”As soon as Callum heard the surname ‘Joneson’, his mood improved slightly. “I see. You’re Kenneth Joneson, the eldest son of the Jonesons, who is addicted to e-sports.”Callum only received another round of Kenneth’s serious introduction. “I am Kenneth Joneson, the team leader of the number one FX Club in the country.”Elspeth stared at Kenneth’s beautiful yet immature face, suddenly feeling as though this was a kind of beauty that was gifted as an apology for forgetting about installing a brain into this person. Was he handsome? Yes, absolutely. Unfortunately, his good looks were in exchange for his intelligence.“So, did you come looking for me because you wanted to drag me into your team? Let me be straight with you. I don’t have the time to join your team for the long term, and I don’t have any interest in e-sports.”Kenneth didn’t hide his disappointment at her words. Regardless, he could not force her by pulling seniority even if she was unwilling. So, he nodded in understanding.” I know you are reluctant to join the team. I came to invite you to participate in the team competition. One of our participating team members was involved in a car accident, so I…”She did not seem bothered. “Can’t you use your reserve members as a replacement?”He frowned at her suggestion. “The person you would be replacing is an ADC player. He is the only shooter with the best performance on the team. However, I think your skills are well-rounded, so I came to you.”When she saw the puppy dog eyes coupled with the expectant look on his face, she couldn’t bring herself to refuse him. At the end of the day, she agreed to follow him to the club.Callum immediately chimed in, “I’m coming with you.”Elspeth looked back at him with a bewildered look. “Why? It’s not like you play games.”He did not relent and insisted, “I want to learn, can’t I?”Naturally, he had other things in mind when he said that.The entire club was filled with men. If any one of them harbored any ill intentions toward her, it was his duty as her official boyfriend to deal with them. So, it was better to find the root of the problem and nip them in the bud.“Okay. You can come with us.”The three of them left the
