Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Chapter 370 The Cheapest Car

Callum didn’t say no, so he seemed to have agreed to it, but Elspeth rejected the idea. “That won’t be necessary. We can wait a little longer for a cab.”

Jethro didn’t want to wait, so he pleaded with Elspeth like an obedient younger brother. “Elsie, Mr. Winthrop is nice enough to give us a ride, so why shouldn’t we accept his kind gesture?”

Elsie…

Callum’s face grew colder as he repeated the nickname in his head.

Elspeth was startled. For some reason, even though she and Callum were uninvolved in every way, she still felt a trace of awkwardness when Jethro called her Elsie.

To avoid giving Jethro the chance to say anything else that was too suggestive, she agreed.

“Oh, fine. Let’s go.”

So, obliging with the little kid?

Callum looked at them with scrutiny.

The two of them got into Callum’s car while the electric scooter was temporarily abandoned by the side of the road.

Jethro left the key in the ignition and said he was giving it away to anyone who chanced upon it since the Wilstones had more than enough vehicles.

Elspeth was smiling as she remarked sarcastically to herself, It’s obvious that you can’t be bothered to call someone to tow it away.

However, as she was sitting inside Callum’s car right now, she wasn’t in the mood to think about anything else. On the other hand, Jethro seemed eager to stir up trouble as he kept dragging all sorts of things up.

“Elsie, I heard that you were in a relationship with Mr. Winthrop before. Is that true?”

Elspeth’s smile stiffened.

“If you can’t hold your tongue, then keep your mouth shut.”

Callum, who was fully focused on driving, tapped his finger on the steering wheel when he heard the question, but he didn’t respond.

“Well, so what? It’s all in the past, and anyway, Mr. Winthrop has a new fiancée now. I’m sure you have already gotten over the relationship too.”

It was to be expected from someone who only recently became of age. He thought of relationships as something so inconsequential.

Elspeth couldn’t be bothered to waste her breath with him. She turned toward the window instead and just so happened to catch sight of the hotel before it whizzed past her.
