Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Elspeth could not contain her laughter upon hearing how Cameron addressed her. She was amused that he called her "Elsie" like she was young enough to be his sister or a peer but called Edmund "Daddy." He has a way with words!

However, the boy was perplexed because, in his mind, she appeared so young and beautiful that she must be an older sister, so he didn't see any problem with him addressing her in this manner.

Meanwhile, Callum, who had been standing behind his wife, was entirely disregarded by Cameron, who seemed not to notice him. Instead, the boy sprinted over and grabbed Elspeth's hand, a faint grin spreading across his face. "Elsie, I know you have a great relationship with Daddy. Come with me, and I'll make you some tea."

She was taken aback by his unexpected sweetness and charm, and a wave of maternal affection washed over her, and she couldn't help but reach out to tousle his hair. "Sure."

Clearly, I am related to him by blood? How dare he ignore me when he sees a pretty lady? Callum's face darkened at this thought as he followed them inside.

Once inside, Cameron showed off his maturity by pouring tea for her.

Then, Callum asked, pointing to the empty cup before him, "Why didn't you pour anything for me?"

After hearing this, Cameron glanced at him leisurely and retorted, "Mr. Winthrop, if you want tea, pour it yourself."

Nevertheless, Elspeth was perplexed by the contrast in demeanor and blatant hostility, so she inquired, "Cam, what's wrong? Don't you like Uncle Callum?"

As soon as Cameron heard this, he turned into a docile and endearing little boy. "No. How could I possibly have any ill feelings toward Uncle Callum? Since I poured only one cup of tea, it's only for you. I'm sure he won't mind."

This brat must be doing it on purpose! Callum took a deep breath and paused to give the situation careful thought. This is my son, and I should not descend to his level of immaturity. After having this thought, he was able to calm down.

However, she was curious about the boy's inexplicable fondness for her and asked, "Cam, how do you know me?" If I am not mistaken, I have never met this boy before, much less developed a close friendship with him.

"Do you need a reason to like someone?" Cameron playfully approached Elspeth, rubbing his head against her hand. His fluffy hair made her feel even more affection for him.

"You're so adorable. If only you were my son." She unintentionally uttered those words.

When he heard this, his eyes instantly lit up. "Elsie, are you serious? Do you truly want to be my mommy?"

Nonetheless, she dismissed it as a child's wish and nodded firmly as a sign of affection. "Yes, I think you're well-behaved and likable. If possible, I want to be your mommy."

A glimmer of light flashed in the boy's eyes, and he said, "Actually, it's not impossible."

After hearing this, Callum, who had been reserved and quiet until now, suddenly had a bad premonition. I have a feeling this little rascal has a wicked plan, especially given his previous behavior toward me, and I am sure this brat would say something shocking.

"Oh?"

Elspeth assumed Cameron wanted her to be his godmother and was about to propose it when he said something that rendered her speechless.

"How about this, Elsie? You divorce Uncle Callum and marry Daddy, then you can be my mommy." The boy thought his suggestion was incredibly brilliant, as he was still young and always believed his ideas were profound and ingenious.

Indeed, just as I expected. Callum's face darkened, and before she could speak, he flatly refused, "That's impossible. Just give up on that idea."

Cameron had thought it could be a negotiable matter, but after hearing Callum's angry rejection and fierce tone, he almost couldn't hold back his tears. "Look at him. I just made a suggestion. I didn't do anything, yet he spoke to me like that."

After hearing this, Elspeth's head throbbed, and she consoled the boy, "Cam, don't be upset. He just has a bit of a temper."

Then, Callum turned his head and glared at her. "I know. I won't stoop to his level."

Afterward, Cameron snorted at him and turned his head, burying himself in her embrace.

On the other hand, she found it humorous to observe these two throwing tantrums at one another. Even their temperaments are somewhat comparable, proving they are father and son. Will Cameron regret his actions if he discovers he is Callum's child and is helping someone steal his father's wife? The more I try to picture this happening, the funnier it becomes. However, based on the current situation, the boy has a deep-seated hostility toward Callum.

"You're so adorable. If only you were my son." She unintentionally uttered those words.

"You brat. If you say anything like that again, I'll have your father kick you out," Callum threatened Cameron after seeing that he had not learned his lesson and was still clinging to Elspeth and misbehaving.
