Chapter 317

Damoria.

Callum’s eyes were filled with rage as he read the newspaper at his desk. That’s impossible! Elspeth was still alive and running around about two weeks ago. How could she have died from a disease in just a few days?

He didn’t believe it, or maybe he refused to believe it.

The assistant looked at his boss’ gloomy expression from the side, not daring to say anything.

A long while later, Callum rolled the newspaper into a ball and threw it into the trash can.

The nervousness and depression he felt just now disappeared in an instant.

“Mr. Winthrop, the department manager—”

Callum swept his gaze over the assistant’s face and ordered, “Let him settle the matter himself.”

Hearing that, the assistant started sweating profusely, wondering if it was a good idea to let the department manager deal with this matter independently. After all, that wasn’t a simple matter.

However, judging by how his boss seemed a little absentminded and had no intention of getting involved, the assistant pondered for a moment and finally left.

Only Callum was inside the large, spacious office. He tugged on his necktie as he felt suffocated.

He knew she shouldn’t care about Elspeth, but he felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness whenever he thought about the formerly living and breathing woman suddenly disappearing from the world.

There were no words to describe how he felt.

He didn’t care about her but seemed to care a lot about her.

He felt a little angry when he found out about her engagement a week ago. Didn’t that woman say she loved me? How could she be willing to marry another man if the news described it correctly? Like what they say, women are heartless and can’t make up their minds.
