Chapter 492 Within His Plan

Callum took a step forward and drew her into his embrace. He had wanted to hug her tightly, but he was soon stopped by a hand on his chest.

Elspeth was resisting him as she didn't know what to do with the situation now.

"This is inappropriate," she mumbled, her mind in a mess. She wanted to accept his hug, but she didn't think she was capable of doing so.

"There's nothing inappropriate about this." Callum placed his head on her shoulder and murmured in a hoarse voice, "If… If we are really related by blood, it isn't an issue for cousins to hug each other either."

Though he was right, both of them knew exactly why they were hugging.

After a long pause, Callum continued, "Let us do a DNA test. I don't want to leave things the way they are."

"Okay."

Even though they both knew there was a slim chance of getting their desired outcome, they wanted to give it one last shot.

"I'll go now, then."

"Okay."

Elspeth plucked a few strands of her hair. After handing them to him, she stood there and watched him walk away.

Callum took the samples for the DNA test to a nearby hospital, but he ran into someone he didn't want to meet.
