Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me Chapter 105
Once the meeting came to an end, those who mocked ina huddled around Elspeth. “Elspeth, I think
the boss was just being unfair.”
Already upset from losing the project, Elspeth wanted to know why her colleague was saying that, and
she arched her eyebrow. “How so?”
“You should’ve been the one handling this project. I can’t believe the boss gave something that
important to that bitch. This is so unfair to you.”
Elspeth shook her head dismissively. “It doesn’t matter who writes up the proposal. As long as it’s
good.”
Disappointed, the employee said, “You’re just too naive, Elspeth. That b*tch is gonna y you like a
fiddle.”
Elspeth only smiled, but she said nothing. She’s just a youngss trying to make a name for herself in
her new job. Not a b*tch. Then she felt everything around her spin. Must have overworked myself. She
shook her head and tried to walk, but then she cked out and fell forward.
Through the ss door, Callum saw Elspeth lying on the floor. He came in and picked her up. Looks
red. Too red. He put a hand against her forehead. Scalding. “You idiot. Didn’t even realize you had a
fever?” he muttered silently and was about to take her to the hospital.
ina noticed what was going on, and she came over. “What happened to her, Mr. Winthrop?” She
sounded worried as if she actually cared for Elspeth.
“Caught a fever. I’m taking her to the hospital.”
ina stared at Callum with anticipation in her eyes. “Can Ie? I’d like to keep an eye on her. She
helped me a lot, and I want to do something for her.”
Callum looked at her. She seems genuinely worried. And he nodded. They went to the hospital, and the
doctor did a little checkup. Then Elspeth was taken to a ward and hooked up to an IV infusion. Callum
headed to the reception to go through some paperwork, while ina went to the restroom. And only
Elspeth was left in her
room.
Someone slowly opened the door. The silhouette looked around to see if anyone was around. Good.
The coast is clear: They heaved a sigh of relief and approached Elspeth’s bed.
She was none other than Ophelia. Unlike her past self, she seemed frail and listless, not unlike
someone who had been tortured. Now she was wearing a coat and pretending to be a doctor. Nobody
would suspect a `thing.”Atst, you’re mine. None of this would have happened if not for you. The
whole Winthrop household
hates me now. Even my father wants to send me abroad. Called me a disgrace. This is all your fault!”
Her face was contorted with rage and fury. She set her eyes on Elspeth’s neck and was just about to
throttle her, but the sounds of footsteps echoed across the air. Someone’sing. Quickly she pulled
her hands back
It was ina. She just came back from her restroom trip. “Oh.” She saw inaing out of the ward.
“Did they change doctors?”
“Um, the attending physician sent me here. Wanted me to check on the patient. She’s fine, so I have to
go now.” Ophelia hung her head as low as possible, worried that this woman might find out she was
lying. The panic in her eyes would betray her.
ina thought this doctor felt weird, but she asked no questions. Instead, she nodded at her and
entered the
ward.
Ophelia heaved a long sigh of relief and left in a hurry.
Elspeth woke up just in time to see ina smiling at her. “Why are you here?”
Smugly, ina said, “We sent you here. Mr. Winthrop and I.” She sounded proud as ifing together
with Callum would close the gap between her and him, but it worked.
For some reason, Elspeth felt jealous. “Thanks.”
ina smiled. “It’s nothing, Miss Lynwood. You’re an asset to thepany. If you fall sick, Mr.
Winthrop is
gonna worry.”
So, she’s trying to say Callum is worried only because I can bring profit for thepany, not because
he likes me. This girl is annoying. Especially the way she talks. “If you care about thepany so
much, you should go back to work, then. At least you can show off your skills,” Elspeth shot back. She
had no patience to even behave politely.
ina chuckled. “No, no. I came here so you guys wouldn’t have a chance to stay in a room all alone.”
“Why?”
“To be honest, I’m gunning for him. I’m hot and educated, and my familypany is the industry
leader. I could’ve gotten any job I wanted, but I came to hispany. For him.”
Gah. Another girl has a crush on him. Elspeth held her forehead. What is up with him and trashy
women
having a crush on him?
“You aren’t close with him, and I think he only wants you for the novelty. Maybe he’d like me more if he
spent
more time with me.”
Elspeth couldn’t believe a sweet and innocent-looking girl like ina could turn into a shrew when no
one was looking.
Callum wasing to the ward after he paid for the expenses. ina heard the sound of his footsteps,
and she put on a sad look. “I know you don’t like me, Miss Lynwood. I can leave. Please don’t get
mad.” Oh, he’s stopping. He’s at the door. And ina added, “I know you never liked me, but I was just
trying to help. I didn’t
Elspeth noticed him, of course, but she didn’t even bother exining. Instead, she was looking ahead
calmly.

Callum frowned. “What’s going on?”
ina wiped her tears. The moment Callum entered the ward, she quickly got up and stared at the
ground. “It’s alright. Nothing happened.”
“Did she… abuse you?” asked Callum hesitantly. She doesn’t look like that kind of person. And ina
never did anything that would get on her nerves.
Elspeth sneered. “Oh, I don’t heckle newbies. She’s just manipting the narrative to suit her agenda.”
Okay, wow. That’s an usation. He solemnly said, “She’s just a newbie. Go easy on her.”
“I never heckled her. Do you trust me?” Elspeth peered into his eyes seriously.
Callum then felt a lump forming in his throat. A long timeter, he curtly said, “I see.”
Disappointing. Elspeth stared at the ground. “You need to leave. I want to get some rest.”
Okay, this is awkward. And ina’s sobbing. At that, he said, “Come with me, ina.”
Elspeth closed her eyes and turned her back on Callum.
