Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

"If that's the case, we'll register our marriage tomorrow."

It wouldn't be good to keep delaying this. Callum didn't want other men to have any covetous thoughts about her.

He had already decided to return home and collect his birth certificate tomorrow, while Elspeth felt rather faint after hearing what he said.

"I didn't plan on getting married so quickly…"

To be honest, she had never thought of getting tied down to anyone at the moment.

Marriage was a huge responsibility, and she was afraid to make such a commitment. However, she didn't expect that her words would garner such a huge reaction from Callum.

He retracted the icy smile on his face, suddenly grabbed onto her waist, and pushed her up against the wall as he stared at her with cold eyes.

"Say that again."

Even though Elspeth was worried that he might do something in a fit of anger, she still came clean about her thoughts, saying, "I still don't want to… Hmm!"

The rest of her sentence was swallowed by his lips.

This was the first time Callum had kissed her so forcefully as he held her waist and pulled her close to him while he pried her lips open with his tongue.

Elspeth felt out of breath and let out muffled sounds of disapproval, but that only made him kiss her harder.

Eventually, her legs gave out, and she almost fell to the ground. But he managed to scoop her up in time.

He gave her a moment to breathe as he looked at Elspeth, who was gasping for breath before drawling huskily, "So, tell me. Do you want to marry me?"

She nodded and shook her head as her eyes turned teary.

"Such a doll." Callum looked at her pitiful face as his gaze landed on her plump red lips. His eyes darkened as he felt himself becoming aroused by the ravishing sight before him.
