Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Chapter 369 Would You Be So Kind

Elspeth decided to ignore him. She sat back down at her desk and carried on with her work. Thanks to her unusually heavy workload today, she kept working until 11.00PM.

Jethro sat on the couch nearby and waited until 11.00PM.

At 11.15PM, Elspeth stretched and stood up. She had finally completed the day’s work!

“Are you done?”

Jethro had been occupying himself with his phone the whole time, and he finally turned the screen off when he noticed Elspeth’s actions.

Elspeth was startled by his voice. Feeling tired, she peered into the darkness and at last, she realized that he was still there!

“Yeah, I’m done. I’m going home now. You should hurry up and go back as well.” She waved him off as she had no intention of giving him a ride.

“Do you think I waited here this long just to watch you work?”

Jethro flashed her a smile and picked up her handbag without even asking for her permission. He shut her laptop and said, “Alright. It’s decided. I’ll drop you off at your place.”

He was too tall and Elspeth couldn’t snatch her handbag back. She could only sigh in helplessness.

“Fine. I’ll let you do that, but you need to give me my bag first.”

Jethro waved his slender finger in front of her. “Not happening. What if you run off the moment I give it back to you?”

Does he think I’m someone who’d do such a thing?

Elspeth rolled her eyes and snapped, “Since you want to hold it for me, so be it.”

She marched off at once.

Jethro had gotten what he wanted and wasn’t affected at all. He happily followed after her.

Elspeth stopped by the side of the road and Jethro stopped beside her. Hah, she sneered to herself. He’s a kid alright, and yet he wants to win me over, huh? He doesn’t even know what he should be doing.

“Why are you just standing there? Hurry up and bring the car around.”

Jethro nodded and pointed at the electric scooter by the side of the road. “It’s over there. I’ll give you a ride home.”

An… electric scooter?

Elspeth was gob-smacked. Jethro Wilstone, the Wilstones’ son, has fallen so far from grace that he has to ride a scooter to work?
