Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

CHAPTER 612 IT REALLY IS EMMA

She merely wanted to dismay Elspeth and let her know that it was a mistake to mess with her. Taking the document back, Yena directly tore it in half. "In that case, I don't see a need for our cooperation."

Seeing that, Elspeth smiled. "If that's your decision, I believe you'll regret it."

Yena leaned back, looking somewhat at ease. "Well, enlighten me."

With that, Elspeth elaborated, "Without Azure, Alphascape Group's development in the field of chip production can only reach this far."

Yena could hardly hold back her laughter when she heard Elspeth's statement. "It's easy for you to say that. I admit that Azure is powerful, but it's not to the point that Alphascape Group's development will get hindered without it."

Elspeth sure is an overconfident woman, isn't she?

"You will find out if my words are nonsense when the time comes." Elspeth immediately stood up. "After all, Alphascape isn't the only company in the field of chip production."

Only then did Yena turn off the smile on her face. "Of course, I know that. I wanted to point out that you can't find a second partner as promising as us to date, that's all." She attempted to instill panic in Elspeth.

Without warning, Elspeth turned her head and looked at Yena; not an ounce of fright could be seen on her face. "Look at me. Do you see any sign of fear?"

Yena straight off felt exasperated. She hated that Elspeth always seemed to have the game in her hands. In her eyes, it was as though Elspeth could achieve victory even if she stood there and did nothing. "Elspeth, don't celebrate too early, and don't get complacent either. After all, overconfidence isn't a virtue."

Upon hearing that, Elspeth chuckled. "Don't worry. You couldn't do anything to me two years ago, and that part still stands today."

At once, Yena widened her eyes. "You!"

"By the way, which name do you prefer? Should I call you Yena? Or… Emma?"

Despite her fingers gripping the armchair tightly, Yena's facial expression remained calm. "What are you blabbering about? I told you last time. I'm not Emma."

Elspeth shrugged at her answer. "I think you should know very well whether you're Emma or not. Besides, I'm not in a hurry to expose you. After all, it's meaningless for me to do so. Anyway, since you refuse to cooperate with us, let's just cancel it." After that, she turned around and left without delay.

Just when she arrived at the door, Yena, who was behind her, suddenly yelled, "Elspeth!"

She turned her head, looked at her, and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"I know you think I'm inferior and not as brilliant as you." Yena's voice gradually sounded anxious as she could no longer maintain her composure from earlier. "But I came back this time for the sake of letting you know that there's bound to be a situation in which I can defeat you. Do you know how much I've suffered abroad? Arthur wanted to unplug all my medical equipment while I was in a coma. Fortunately, the nurse who looked after me at that time was a friend of mine. That was the only way I managed to get spared! After gaining consciousness, the first thing I did was to make a thorough investigation, and only then did I realize that Arthur was the culprit. He fancied me so much, and we were even together for such a long time, yet how could he do that to me? It must've been you who instructed him to do it. You must've infatuated him with your charm. That was why he did that to me!"

"I have nothing to do with this matter." Elspeth involuntarily let out a deep sigh. "Emma, I never thought of you being inferior to me. I never thought of comparing myself with you either."

"Bullsh*t! Wasn't it because you wanted to let me know that I was a nobody in your eyes that you went out of your way to suppress me before?"

For some reason, Yena constantly believed that Elspeth was a hypocrite, which made her wonder why Callum would fall in love with such a hypocritical woman.

"I never suppressed you. It was you who refused to set yourself free." Elspeth took a deep breath before she continued, "Okay. Stop making such silly statements. I came here today to discuss our company's cooperation and not to listen to your complaints." After saying those words to Yena, she left trippingly.

Yena was so enraged that she nearly chipped her teeth as she stared at Elspeth's unfazed back silhouette. My purpose for undergoing a minor cosmetic surgery while I was abroad was to make myself look alike yet different from Emma. I am no longer the Emma that I was before, and the reason I came back this time is to simply let Elspeth know I will not allow myself to get trampled by her like before!

…

Elspeth planned to return to the Joneson Residence in Blaydal this weekend to discuss some matters. She figured it was time for her to ask the Jonesons to intervene with some matters.

Before leaving, she asked Helia if she was still willing to return to the Joneson Residence with her now. As of recently, she looked pretty well as she was almost done nursing her body in the hospital.

Apart from Welson, who would come over and annoy her time and again, Helia's life was considerably enjoyable.

Initially, Elspeth thought her mom would be traumatized by the idea of returning to the Joneson Residence after what she went through. To her surprise, she agreed without even the slightest resistance.

"Elsie, years had passed since the incident took place. I have long gotten over it." Helia was more thoughtful than Elspeth. "Besides, it's impossible for me not to feel happy when life blessed me with such a wonderful daughter."
