Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Chapter 209

sympathy. Though it lasted only for a second, his reaction betrayed feelings of pity and regret.Elspeth’s heart twinged suddenly. Are the beliefs that I held onto previously just wishful thinking? Everyone has noticed Callum’s change of heart, yet I’m the only person who believes from start to finish that he would never change. “Callum would still be attracted to Emma after four years of separation. If you don’t believe it, just wait until he dumps you and gets back together with her.” Jordan chuckled softly before letting go of her.Elspeth’s heart ached. Maintaining her composure with great effort, she turned around and prepared to leave.“Oh, right, there’s one thing that I forgot to tell you.” Jordan leaned over to her ear. He whispered, “Actually, I really like you.”Elspeth stepped on his foot immediately.Jordan broke out in a cold sweat; he had to clench his teeth hard to prevent himself from crying out in pain. “Elspeth…” He forced a smile. “Even though you don’t believe this, I really like you. I absolutely won’t lose to Callum in that regard.”Elspeth didn’t bother to pay attention to what he said. At this very moment, all she wanted to do was find a secluded spot and quietly withdraw into herself. After leaving the bar, she was ready to go somewhere else for another drink, but she suddenly noticed a familiar figure at the door. Arthur? Why is he here?Seeing Arthur walking straight into the bar, she hurriedly followed him inside.Taking great pains to avoid Jordan, she followed Arthur to a booth and seated herself behind him, lowering her head to conceal herself. When she looked up again, her jaw dropped in surprise at the sight of the familiar person before her. Arthur and Emma? Why are they meeting up here in the middle of the night?Before she realized what was going on, Arthur asked, “How are you doing lately? Is Callum treating you well?”Emma raised her chin proudly. “Of course, he is. He’s very cold toward Elspeth now; not only does he only have eyes for me, but he also helped clean up my mess many times. If it weren’t that he hadn’t broken up with Elspeth yet, I would’ve made our relationship public.”“You mean… Callum’s snubbing Elspeth and going out with you?” Arthur looked rather surprised before smiling in comprehension. After all, Emma was his first girlfriend, so it’s only natural that he still has feelings for her even though they’ve broken up. Seems like he was just pretending to dislike her in front of us previously.Emma replied, “Yeah, that’s right. I think Callum doesn’t like Elspeth that much. Whenever she called him, he’d frown and keep the conversation short before hanging up on her. I think he hasn’t broken up with her because she hasn’t brought it up yet. Otherwise, he would’ve freed himself from her long ago.”Elspeth was stunned in place as she listened to their conversation from behind. Emma was a cosseted lady, but what she said didn’t seem to be false. Could Callum really be waiting for me to break up with him?“By
