Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Chapter 225

After that, he glanced at Elspeth with intrigued eyes. “Oh, so you think I’m ‘passionate on the inside’ and I ‘perform in unexpected ways’.”Hearing him say the word ‘passionate’ immediately made her turn red in the face.“That’s not what I mean…”She struggled to get out of his hold on her wrists, but he only held on tighter.“Elspeth, are you trying to do something different with me?”The woman quickly froze. She couldn’t even begin to imagine what he was talking about.The way his Adam’s apple rolled and the clear and distinct sound of him gulping made her imagination run wild.“Let’s put everything aside first.

She couldn’t sleep well the whole night because none of her guesses were right.The next day, she, with dark circles around her eyes, went to meet up with Callum.Callum both felt sorry and entertained when he saw the unconcealable exhaustion in her eyes even though she had full makeup on.“Alright, alright. You can catch some sleep on the plane. I’ll wake you up when we get there.”She then nodded and fell into a deep sleep against his shoulder.When he saw how docile she was when she slept, he felt a strange
