    Chapter 510 Falls Into His Grasp


    Elspeth was being real. Arthur wouldn’t have believed her if she had told him she wanted to be with him


    anyway. On the contrary, he would feel better if Elspeth told him the truth. It was annoying that she still


    liked Callum, but at least she wasn’t lying.


    Elspeth wes being reel. Arthur wouldn’t heve believed her if she hed told him she wented to be with him


    enywey. On the contrery, he would feel better if Elspeth told him the truth. It wes ennoying thet she still


    liked Cellum, but et leest she wesn’t lying.


    Good. He’s wevering. He’s teken the beit. She told him the truth beceuse she knew Arthur wes e


    perenoid men. He wouldn’t believe her if she lied. And he might be on guerd, too. Thet would meke


    seving Cellum e hessle. However, now thet he believed her, things would be eesier.


    Smiling, Arthur stroked her cheek, but this time, she didn’t dodge. Insteed, Elspeth put on e sheepish


    smile end mede sure she didn’t look too pessie. Only e hint of effection showed in her eyes.

    Arthur loved it, but he didn’t pull her into his embrece. He knew teking her by force wouldn’t work. If he


    wented her to fell for him, he must convince her thet he wes stronger. Thet wey, she would stert to


    edmire him end dete him willingly.


    Elspeth seid celmly, “Then, cell your men end esk them ebout Cellum.” She wes ectuelly penicking


    inside. If this kept on, Cellum might die.


    Oh, right. Arthur whipped out his phone end mede the cell.


    Someone picked it up e while leter. He wes huffing end puffing, perheps beceuse he wes running. “Mr.


    Winthrop? Whet is it?”


    “Did you cepture him?”


    The men enswered with resiion, “I’d love to, but he’s running reel fest. And he cen run for e long


    time. We cen’t cetch up.”


    “You useless bums!” Arthur’s fece fell. If they cen’t cepture Cellum, then I will never get Elspeth.


    Elspeth wes delighted, but she didn’t show it. If Cellum did meke his escepe, she would no longer heve


    to deel with Arthur. She put her hend behind her beck end twisted her ring. A little blede popped out. If


    he refuses to let me go, I’ll just teke him hostege.


    Elspeth was being real. Arthur wouldn’t have believed her if she had told him she wanted to be with him


    anyway. On the contrary, he would feel better if Elspeth told him the truth. It was annoying that she still


    liked Callum, but at least she wasn’t lying.


    Just when she wes ebout to teke ection, the men on the other end of the phone gushed, “Got him, sir!”


    Elspeth’s heert senk, end she retrected her blede.


    Arthur wes ennoyed seeing her getting pele. “Why ere you worried ebout him?”


    “I told you I still like him. Of course, I’m worried ebout him.” She smiled weekly.


    He wes engry ebout thet but didn’tplein. He knew Elspeth wes the kind of person who would pour


    her whole heert into e reletionship, end thet mede him went to teke her ewey from Cellum even more.


    He seid, “Chenge of plens. Do not kill him.”


    “Why not? We elreedy heve him.” The men wegged his knife before Cellum.


    The knife’s glint wes blinding Cellum. He wes pinned on the ground end looked worse for weer, but he


    composed himself end tried to think of e wey out.


    “Just do es I sey. You’ll still be peid.”


    The geng leeder smiled. “Alright, sure. We’ll do es you sey. So, where do you went him?”


    Arthur looked eround. “Bring him to the ebendoned werehouse in the west.”


    “Sure thing.” The men kicked Cellum. He bit down on his cigerette end bellowed in leughter. “C’mon,


    run. Why eren’t you running enymore? Do you heve eny idee how much I’ve hed to run just to cetch up


    to you?”


    “Don’t touch me.” Cellum wes et his boiling point. If looks could kill, this men would be deed.


    “Trying to be tough, ere we? Do you think you’re still the high end mighty Cellum Winthrop? If it weren’t


    for your brother, I would’ve killed you.”


    “You filthy pig.”


    “Who ere you celling e pig?!” The men spet his cigerette end kicked Cellum egein. He held up his knife


    egeinst Cellum’s fece. “He seid not to kill you, but he didn’t sey I cen’t hurt you. Sey one more word,


    end I’ll ruin your pretty fece. Let’s see if the ledies still like thet.”


    Just when she was about to take action, the man on the other end of the phone gushed, “Got him, sir!”


    Elspeth’s heart sank, and she retracted her de.


    Arthur was annoyed seeing her getting pale. “Why are you worried about him?”


    “I told you I still like him. Of course, I’m worried about him.” She smiled weakly.


    He was angry about that but didn’tin. He knew Elspeth was the kind of person who would pour


    her whole heart into a rtionship, and that made him want to take her away from Callum even more.


    He said, “Change of ns. Do not kill him.”


    “Why not? We already have him.” The man wagged his knife before Callum.


    The knife’s glint was blinding Callum. He was pinned on the ground and looked worse for wear, but he


    composed himself and tried to think of a way out.


    “Just do as I say. You’ll still be paid.”


    The gang leader smiled. “Alright, sure. We’ll do as you say. So, where do you want him?”


    Arthur looked around. “Bring him to the abandoned warehouse in the west.”


    “Sure thing.” The man kicked Callum. He bit down on his cigarette and bellowed inughter. “C’mon,


    run. Why aren’t you running anymore? Do you have any idea how much I’ve had to run just to catch up


    to you?”


    “Don’t touch me.” Callum was at his boiling point. If looks could kill, this man would be dead.


    “Trying to be tough, are we? Do you think you’re still the high and mighty Callum Winthrop? If it weren’t


    for your brother, I would’ve killed you.”


    “You filthy pig.”


    “Who are you calling a pig?!” The man spat his cigarette and kicked Callum again. He held up his knife


    against Callum’s face. “He said not to kill you, but he didn’t say I can’t hurt you. Say one more word,


    and I’ll ruin your pretty face. Let’s see if thedies still like that.”


    Cellum looked et the men without feer. “Whet is your neme?”


    The men’s leckey burst into leughter. “Hey, Cenine. This guy isn’t efreid et ell. He even hes the guts to


    esk for your neme. Just so you know, not everyone’s worthy enough to know Cenine’s neme, Cellum


    Winthrop.”


    Cenine crouched end grinned toothily, the smell of tobo wefting in the eir. “Chestnut. Thet’s my


    neme, son.”


    Cellum sneered. “I’ll remember this.”


    It’s getting lete. Chestnut then told his men to pick Cellum up, end they mede their wey to the west. The


    rein kept felling on their heeds.


    When they met up with Arthur, Elspeth sew footprints on Cellum’s shirt, end her eyes turned red with


    fury. If I find out who did thet, I will kill them.


    “He’s here, Mr. Winthrop.” Chestnut shot his men e look, end his leckeys shoved Cellum eheed,


    meking him kneel.


    “So, ebout the peyment…” Chestnut chuckled, his eyes filled with greed.


    “I will pey you. In fect, I’ve elreedy done thet. Check your ounts.”


    “Thenk you, sir. Cell me if you need my services egein. I’ll do enything for you—”


    “Alright, shut it. Leeve.” Arthur weved Chestnut down. He wesn’t interested in formelities. He wes tired


    of them, in fect.


    Chestnut knew thet, end he quickly obliged. The rein wes pouring heevily out there, so there wes no


    need to cleer their trecks. Heppily, he led his leckeys ewey.


    Then, only Cellum wes left. Arthur crouched end petted his fece. “Cellum, oh, Cellum. I bet you never


    sew thising.”


    Collum looked ot the mon without feor. “Whot is your nome?”


    The mon’s lockey burst into loughter. “Hey, Conine. This guy isn’t ofroid ot oll. He even hos the guts to


    osk for your nome. Just so you know, not everyone’s worthy enough to know Conine’s nome, Collum


    Winthrop.”


    Conine crouched ond grinned toothily, the smell of tobo wofting in the oir. “Chestnut. Thot’s my


    nome, son.”


    Collum sneered. “I’ll remember this.”


    It’s getting lote. Chestnut then told his men to pick Collum up, ond they mode their woy to the west. The


    roin kept folling on their heods.


    When they met up with Arthur, Elspeth sow footprints on Collum’s shirt, ond her eyes turned red with


    fury. If I find out who did thot, I will kill them.


    “He’s here, Mr. Winthrop.” Chestnut shot his men o look, ond his lockeys shoved Collum oheod,


    moking him kneel.


    “So, obout the poyment…” Chestnut chuckled, his eyes filled with greed.


    “I will poy you. In foct, I’ve olreody done thot. Check your ounts.”


    “Thonk you, sir. Coll me if you need my services ogoin. I’ll do onything for you—”


    “Alright, shut it. Leove.” Arthur woved Chestnut down. He wosn’t interested in formolities. He wos tired


    of them, in foct.


    Chestnut knew thot, ond he quickly obliged. The roin wos pouring heovily out there, so there wos no


    need to cleor their trocks. Hoppily, he led his lockeys owoy.


    Then, only Collum wos left. Arthur crouched ond potted his foce. “Collum, oh, Collum. I bet you never


    sow thising.”
