Chapter 342

Elspeth was aware that Callum was too stubborn and stuck persistently to his beliefs, and that continuing to argue with him held no meaning, so she let out a helpless sigh. “But if you do this, Rayan will not easily hand the scimitar over.”

Seeming to realize that he had been a little too harsh, Callum softened his expression and reached out to rub her hair. “Okay, don’t worry about this anymore. He’ll definitely give me the scimitar.”

It was no longer relevant whether Rayan was willing to hand it over or not; his father would not easily give up this opportunity to push the Adler Family to greater heights.

“All right.” Elspeth sighed. “That’s all we can do for now.”

While the two conversed downstairs, unbeknownst to them, Rayan, who had just been locked upstairs by his father, had witnessed everything. As he watched their intimate gestures, the suspicion in his gaze intensified.

Just then, his phone rang. After a glance at the unknown string of numbers, he decided to pick up.

“Is this Mr. Adler? I heard that you’re currently with a woman called Lynwood. Is that true?” As soon as he answered the phone, the caller hastily questioned him about his relationship with Elspeth.

Rayan was already frustrated enough as his woman was about to leave with another man. When he heard a strange woman chattering on the phone, his irritation increased.

“What does that have to do with you?”

Upon hearing that that was the case, the woman on the other end didn’t seem to mind his hostile tone, and there was even a trace of glee in her voice as she said, “If that’s the case, I’ll tell you a secret.”

The word ‘secret’ piqued Rayan’s curiosity. “What secret?”

“The secret is that… Elspeth is approaching you for a reason!”
