Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Chapter 300

what met her gaze was Callum talking intimately with Emma. A sigh escaped her lips. She walked to a corner and held up a glass of wine. Just when she was about to drink her worries away, a shrill voice spoke.“Why, if it isn’t Elspeth? Why are you alone? Where’s Callum?”Emma was standing by Elspeth’s side.Elspeth looked at her drink and finished the last of it. “You know why. That’s a redundant question.”Emma shrugged the snappish answer off and laughed delightfully. “Even God is helping me. He has forgotten all about your love. So much for undying love.” “That’s none of your business. I’m still his fiancée, but you’re just an ex of his.” Elspeth twirled her wine glass with one hand, the other balling into a fist. She wasn’t sure if Callum still loved her, but she wanted to take Emma down a peg or two.“So what? I still appeared in his life earlier than you did. You know how much he used to love me. Now that he has lost all feelings for you, it’s only a matter of time before he comes back to me.” I can get married to him soon. Emma’s eyes glimmered with excitement. All I have to do is take this woman down.“Yeah, right. Even if he were to break up with me, he wouldn’t marry you. Don’t forget all the disgusting stuff you did. His family will never accept you.” The Winthrops don’t like her.That hit the bullseye, and Emma’s face contorted with rage. “What are you talking about? We’re very much in love.” Damn it. She’s trying to pit us against each other again. “He told me he has lost all feelings for you. You can’t still be waiting for him to remember all about your love?” Emma chuckled shyly. “He told me he still couldn’t forget about me.”Elspeth chuckled. “You’re delusional. You’re at best a four out of ten, and you slept with about a hundred men. To hell if the Winthrops will accept you.”Infuriated, Emma was about to yell at Elspeth, but she saw Callum slowly moving toward them. She calmed down and turned away. While out of Callum’s sight, she sneered. “Want to make a bet? Let’s see whom he cares about more.”Alarm bells rang in Elspeth’s head. “What are you talking about?”“Nothing.” Emma chuckled. “Just trying to have some cheap thrills.” Right after she said that, she slammed her foot into the gigantic wooden rack filled with wine glasses. The rack started to wobble, and eventually, it fell down on the ladies.This is going to hurt badly, and it’s too late to run. I can’t dodge either. I’ll be hit either way. Elspeth closed her eyes. Before everything fell to darkness, she saw Emma smiling venomously at her.The pain didn’t come. Elspeth opened her eyes and found herself lying in someone’s embrace. It warmed her heart, but when she looked up, her smile disappeared. It’s not Callum.Why the f*ck is this woman looking at me so dumbly? Gilbert roared, “Are you mad? You could’ve dodged that thing!” If I had reached her one second later, she would’ve drowned in a mountain of broken glass.Elspeth blinked, trying to wake her mind up. I’m the only victim. Wait, where’s Emma? She turned around. Emma was also unhurt, and she was lying in Callum’s embrace. She pretended to shake with fear. Softly,
