Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me Chapter 96


    Stunned by Elspeth’s request, Sonny asked, “I-Is thisdy asleep or something?” After a brief pause,


    he said something that left everyone surprised.


    Knowing how humorous her mentor was, Elspeth rolled her eyes upward in silence. “She is in a


    vegetative state now. Can you help her?”


    “Oh,e on. It’s not that serious. I’m sure you can handle it yourself, Elspeth.”


    “I don’t know how I can do that,” Elspetli responded casually.


    “What? You don’t know how to handle that yourself even after I taught you so seriously? Dear god! You


    just broke my heart…” Sonny pretended to cry, thinking it should make his mentee feel helpless when


    she saw an old man like him so sad.


    “Alright. Stop crying, okay? I’ll book a flight for you taking off in an hour. It should take you about four to


    five hours to get here, so be here as early as you can,” Elspeth chuckled and added, “or you can forget


    about getting your revenge in chess.”

    As Sonny was about to reject Elspeth, he quickly changed his mind and wiped his tears after hearing


    Elspeth’s threat. “Fine, I’ll help her. It’s not a big deal anyway. Ugh! I have a feeling I’m going to suffer


    horribly at your hands!” Sonny had no choice but to pack his clothes after the conversation despite his


    reluctance.


    Meanwhile, Elspeth shifted her eyes to the doctor and raised her eyebrows, asking. “So, do you believe


    me now? If you don’t, you’re wee to wait here until he shows up.”


    In the face of Elspeth’s confidence, the doctor started to suspect that he might’ve been wrong after all.


    Furthermore, having seen the video call between Elspeth and Sonny, he was filled with guilt and shame


    instead of arrogance and belligerence.


    “It’s alright. I should get going now. I still have some business to attend to…” Already ashamed of his


    ineptitude, the doctor knew that more humiliation would be waiting for him if he continued to stay


    behind. Although he was tempted to watch and learn from Sonny, his ego would not allow him to


    tolerate any more


    humiliation.


    “Alright, see you around, doctor.” After the doctor was gone, Elspeth turned her attention to Callum.


    “My mentor is going to be here soon, Callum. Your mother is going to be alright.”


    Callum nodded, feeling somewhat relieved when he saw the reassuring look on Elspeth’s face. Four


    hourster, Sonny arrived with a huge suitcase as he hurriedly made his way to the hospital. “Where is


    the patient, EP?”


    “Why are you wearing this ugly outfit again?” Elspeth knitted her eyebrows when she saw Sonny.


    “Come on, it isn’t that bad. Even the olddies who live around my ce say that I look fine in this


    outfit. Beauty is in the eve of the beholder, my dear.” Sonny pouted, feeling bitter.


    “Alright, whatever. Now, put down your luggage and take a look at this patient.” Elspeth led the way and


    took Sonny to Margot.


    When Sonny began his work, he immediately dropped his yful attitude and became serious. Upon


    bending over to take a closer look at Margot, he stretched out his hand to feel the pulse on her neck


    and wrist before he finally stopped chuckling mischievously.


    “What’s wrong?”


    “Nothing. Although it isn’t anything serious, it’s going to take some time.”


    “In that case, why are you frowning?” Elspeth speechlessly asked.


    “I’m just a little upset to think that I have to stay here for a few days,” answered Sonny with a bitter look.


    “I want to go back and y chess. I don’t want to stay here and breathe in the air filled with the scent of


    disinfectant and medicine.”


    The corner of Elspeth’s lips twitched, but even so, she patiently asked, “Well, are you going to treat her


    or


    not?”


    “Y-Yes, I will. Now, I need everyone to be out of this room so that I can perform acupuncture on her.”


    After


    making sure everyone had left the room, Sonny closed the door behind him right away.


    As they stood outside the door, Callum gazed at Elspeth with an unfathomable expression, but thedy


    saw through the concerns in his mind. Thus, sheughed it off and said, “Alright, I know what you’re


    worried about. Sonny may look like a yful, childish old man, but he is pretty serious and professional


    when ites to his work. Hence, I’m pretty sure he’ll save your mother.”


    Callum nodded his head without answering Elspeth directly. Instead, he asked, “Well then, do you still


    need to


    return to the office?”


    “Return to the office…” Elspeth instantly felt awkward, for she hadn’t told Callum about her departure


    when she left thepany in a fit of pique earlier. “Uh.. Am I expected to go back?”


    “Well, the position of the Design Department’s director is still there for you. I’ve always made sure of


    that,”


    Callum answered.


    “Alright, I’ll be back then.” Elspeth nodded in agreement after feeling Callum’s sincerity.


    “Perhaps we should bring everything you need back to the office while Mr. Schwartz treats my mother. I


    bet he


    is going to take some time before he’s done.”


    “Now?” Elspeth asked in a surprised manner.


    “Of course. I was hoping you’d return to Winthrop Group by today.” Not long after finishing his


    sentence, Callum was reminded of what happened earlier that morning. “I also hope that you’d move


    back to the


    Despite that, Elspeth was still reluctant to do what Callum said, especially when she thought about


    what happened in the Winthrop Family. “But I…


    “Say no more ande with me.” Callum couldn’t stand the thought of Jordan getting close to Elspeth.


    Sensing his jealousy, Elspeth immediately thought of Jordan. “What’s wrong? Are you bothered by


    Jordan?”


    “I’m d you know what I’m thinking.” Callum gave thedy a cold re.


    Elspeth chuckled on the inside and nodded in a way that made her seem as if she was reluctant. “Okay


    then, I hear you. I’ll go with you. Your mother is in good hands, so don’t worry about her. My mentor will


    take good


    care of her.”


    After that, the duo briefly discussed their next move before returning to the Winthrop Group together.


    Over the next few days, Callum barely returned to the office and put Edmund in charge in his absence.


    On the other hand. Edmund went to great lengths to make sure everything was in ce on his watch,


    determined to prove


    his worth to his brother.


    “Elspeth?” Edmund was rmed when he saw Elspeth. “Come on, Callum. How could you bring her


    back here? I thought she was gone.” Although Edmund was not his father’s favorite child, he was


    grateful for his mother since she treated all the children fairly. Therefore, now that Margot was in


    trouble, he couldn’t help but think that Elspeth was responsible, having a strong prejudice toward her.


    “Elspeth will be back to work from now on.” Callum gave a terse reply without any intention to borate


    further.


    “Seriously, Callum? Have you forgotten what Elspeth did that day? That’s our mother! No one knows


    when wil Mom recover from her miserable condition now, yet you’re getting close to thisdy?! Is this


    how you repay


    Mom for her kindness?”


    Edmund lost his temper and continued his speech angrily, “I only agreed to let you look after Mom and


    run thpany because you insisted, Callum, but I certainly didn’t see thising. What’s the


    meaning of all this?”


    Upon hearing his brother’s response, Callum was caught off guard, not expecting a dramatic response


    from Edmund since he was usually easy-going and mild-mannered. “No, it wasn’t me.” Elspeth took a


    step forward and tried to exin her innocence.
