Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me Chapter 37


    Chapter 37 Drinking Up


    Ava was confident that this was Elspeth’s attempt at intimidation in order to buy herself some time, and


    she didn’t have any evidence at all. There was no way she could have proof of her innocence! She


    raised her chin proudly and wanted to see what Elspeth was up to now.


    “In that case, let me show you my evidence,” Elspeth answered tly and whisked out her phone from


    her pocket. She clicked on the yer, and instantly, everyone heard Ava’s overbearing voice from the


    phone.


    “Don’t think I can’t do anything after you forced me out of Winthrop Group. Just wait and see. I’ll make


    you pay sooner orter—”


    “After I was fired from Winthrop, no one wanted to hire me, and it was all because of you! You turned


    my life upside down, so I will let you have a taste of your own medicine—”


    “Yes! I want to hurt you—”


    In addition to the conversation, there were also the sounds of bawling and footsteps. It was apparent


    that Ava was the one who intentionally wanted to hurt Elspeth in the first ce.


    “Sir, I think I’ve made myself clear. I didn’t hurt Miss Wiley. Instead, she was the one who wanted to


    hurt me, and I was just trying to protect myself,” Elspeth exined calmly.


    As Ava listened to the recording and her shrill voice echoed across the station, her face turned ghastly


    pale. No way! How did she know that I wanted to hurt her and even turned on the recorder in


    advance?!


    “You set me up! You deliberately upset me and then recorded our conversation to set me up!” An idea


    popped into her mind, and her re became vicious and sinister.


    Elspeth, on the other hand, curled her lips into an indifferent smirk. “What did you say just now? You


    wanted to be mypdog, right? Please don’t. You’re too heavy for myp.”


    Then, she turned and smiled at the police officer. “Sir, I’m sure you’ll make the right decision.”


    At this point, everyone knew who was at fault in this matter. The police officer felt sorry for suspecting


    Elspeth just now, so he cleared his throat and apologized sincerely, “I’m sorry, Miss Lynwood. I


    misunderstood you.”


    “It’s okay. What are you going to do with her? Will she be charged?”


    The police officer answered promptly, “ording to our country’s constitution, aggravated assault is


    punishable by up to three years in prison, but the specific sentence depends on whether you want to


    ce charges or not.”


    “So,” Elspeth quipped, raising her eyebrows in amusement. “It depends on my will.”


    Ava’s heart sank when she heard this. No, I don’t want to go to jail! I’m only 22 years old. I don’t want


    to go to jail!


    She stood up, tugged on Elspeth’s sleeve, and wailed, “Please forgive me! Please don’t sue me! I’m


    still so young! I can’t go to jail!”


    “Calm down, Miss Wiley.” Elspeth frowned.

    “I know I’ve always been terrible. I always bullied you when I was a kid, and all those nasty things I did


    to you in thepany. I’ll do anything to make up for my mistakes, but please don’t sue me! I don’t


    want to go to jail. Please—”


    Ava was genuinely terrified at this moment. She never thought that she would fall so low.


    “Hah!” Elspeth chuckled contemptuously. “So, you do know how nasty you are, huh? You’d better save


    those words now and reflect on them in prison.”


    She red at Ava and thought, I won’t attack unless I’m attacked. I’m not a pushover. Do you really


    think I’ll let you off the hook after what you did to me?!


    Ava saw Elspeth’s resolute and fearsome re and felt a chill down her spine. Finally, she gave up


    begging as she slumped to the ground and burst into regretful tears.


    The police officer ordered a few colleagues to take Ava away and detained her before smiling at


    Elspeth apologetically. “I’m so sorry for the misunderstanding, Miss Lynwood. I’ll have someone send


    you back.”


    She waved him off. “Don’t bother. I can return myself.”


    The police officer didn’t insist as he was also busy with his cases. So, he had someone send Elspeth to


    the door.


    As soon as she stepped out of the police station, Callum and ke rushed over anxiously. Callum was


    relieved when he saw that she was unharmed, but ke grabbed her shoulders and demanded, “What


    happened?”


    “Nothing.” She smiled sheepishly. “I bumped into Ava. She tried to hurt and frame me but was detained


    instead.”


    “Oh? I heard about her. She’s a nasty woman. What did you do?” ke was intrigued.


    Elspeth chuckled. “She tried to hit me, so I pushed her, andter she falsely used me of initiating


    the fight. I turned on my recorder throughout the day because I wanted to listen to my performance


    during the shooting. So, our conversation was coincidentally recorded as a result.”


    Callum knew that Elspeth was brilliant and capable of defending herself, but he frowned at the mention


    of Ava. “I fired her long ago, didn’t I?”


    On the day he fired Ava, he notified all thepanies in the city not to hire her, or they would be


    Winthrop Group’s enemies. He didn’t expect that Ava would stubbornly stay in this city.


    “Yeah, you did, but she still decided toe at me.” Elspeth shrugged in exasperation. “Maybe she


    really despises me.”


    His gaze became grave as he thought, I have to teach this woman a lesson this time so that she won’t


    be able to hurt Elspeth again.


    ke was relieved when Elspeth was fine. “You must have been shocked after what happened today.


    Let’s suspend today’s shooting. We’ll resume the shooting another day.”


    She shook her head and declined, “No. Your schedule is full. I can’t dy the shooting just because of


    this. Alright, let’s go back now. Maybe we can finish all the shooting before dark.”


    They couldn’t change her mind, so the three rushed back to the filming location to continue the shoot.


    Themercial officially aired three dayster. Within the first hour of airing, the sales volume of First


    Love and First Sight increased by thirty percent! It proved the fanbase significance of both ke and


    Nancy.


    The shippers were also utterly excited to see both ke and Nancy pairing up for themercial.


    They bombarded thement sections on Nancy’s and ke’s social media ounts, urging them to


    marry as soon as possible.


    ‘Elspeth has a marriage engagement to the Winthrop Family, and she and ke are a match made in


    heaven! Therefore, she should marry ke!’


    ‘Just look at their ad! They look so perfect together.’


    ‘Please date!’


    ‘I don’t mind if you can marry such a perfect woman! Go ahead! I’m not sad! I ship you guys so hard!’


    Thements went on and on.


    Elspeth felt that the phenomena in thement section were normal, and she didn’t feel bothered


    about that. Nevertheless, Callum was frustrated about it and chose not to talk to her all day today.


    In the evening, she returned home slightlyte due to work. As soon as she opened the door, a stench


    of alcohol wafted toward her.


    Margot and Theodore went on a trip, Edmund went out of town on a business trip, ke was busy with


    work, Arthur was on the night shift at the hospital, and Max was at school. Hence, the source of the


    smell was—


    “Elspeth.”


    She looked up and met Callum’s bright eyes.
