    Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me Chapter 113


    “Elspeth and I saw with our own eyes you acting intimately with another woman. Besides, when


    Elspeth was hospitalized, how often did you visit her? Even Max said that the new design director went


    to look for trouble in the name of visiting Elspeth. It seems like you’re pretty close with the woman now,


    eh?”


    Callum had a very cold aura about him. “It’s not like what you guys saw.”


    “I don’t care if it is or isn’t. All I know is that Elspeth needs me now, and you’ll only make her unhappy.”


    Snorting, ke continued, “This time, Elspeth sent a message for help to me first. One day, I will be the


    one who resides in her heart, not you.”


    Although his words seemed a bit childish, ke meant every single word he uttered.


    Callum knew it would be pointless to argue any further, so he gave up after seeing how smug ke


    was acting. He stood up and left the ward.


    Coming back with water in her hand, Elspeth saw that Callum was gone and asked, “Did he leave


    already?”


    With a nonchnt expression, ke replied, “He left. He felt ashamed due to my words and left.”


    “Okay then. Don’t get out of bed for these few days. Just rest up. I’ll take care of you until you’re


    healed.”


    He was shocked at her statement. “You mean, you want to keep taking care of me? Don’t you have to


    work?”


    The word ‘work’ made Elspeth feel bitter inside.


    Yet, she had to put up a strong facade. “It’s fine. I don’t have a job now, anyway. The design director


    has been reced, so I have the time and energy to take care of you.”


    “I knew that Callum couldn’t be relied on.”

    Clenching his teeth, ke knew that he must not let go of this chance.


    “Just treat these few days as a vacation then. Oh right, since you’re jobless now, I have a proposal for


    you. Do you want to hear me out?”


    Elspeth, upon hearing his words, suppressed her sadness. “What proposal?”


    With smiling eyes, ke stated, “Coincidentally, my manager seems to have a bit of a problem with her


    family, so she took a month off. How about you take her spot as my temporary manager for now?”


    Manager? Elspeth was stunned. Even though she managed an entertainmentpany, she had not


    tried her hand at being a manager of a celebrity before.


    Yet, ke was being very Insistent. “Since you’re already taking care of me for these few days, it won’t


    be much to ask for you to continue doing so for a few more weeks, right? Oh, my great Miss Lynwood,


    you’re the best. Just look at my injuries. Ouch, it hurts so much! Could you bear to see me going to the


    set alone?”


    Although he tried very hard, no tears wereing out of his eyes.


    All this made Elspeth cover her forehead with her hand. “I’ll find someone more suited for you.”


    “I don’t want to. Who would want to be a temporary manager for only one month? Besides, with my


    identity, any Tom, Dick, and Harry wouldn’t be able to cope either


    He almost wanted to beg her by holding onto her arm and swinging it.


    Seeing this, she nodded helplessly. “Fine, fine. I’ll agree to be your manager. But you’ll have to


    rest up and quickly get discharged.”


    “Sweet!”


    When Elspeth was taking care of ke these few days, Callum never came to the hospital.


    Instead, it was Arthur who would pop in from time to time. ke, who did not know what his real


    motives were, still thought that Arthur was the same gentle and quiet brother of his.


    One day, Elspeth was out. Arthur used following up on ke’s condition as an excuse to chat with him.


    “Do you know that Ophelia is dead?”


    Although ke had roughly predicted this, it still made his heart skip a beat. “What can I say? Ophelia


    deserved it. She tried to frame Elspeth repeatedly and even went for her life. These kinds of people are


    a menace to society.”


    Recalling what Ophelia did to Elspeth enraged him.


    “You seem to care a lot about Elspeth. Don’t tell me you really fancy her?”


    Despite Arthur looking like he was just chatting, he was, in fact, trying to worm information out of ke.


    ke, who was always forting with his brother, immediately admitted it. “Yes. I do like Elspeth.”


    “But you know about Callum and Elspeth’s rtionship. Are you really thinking of duking it out with your


    eldest brother?”


    Snorting, ke replied, “So what? Callum won’t treat Elspeth well anyway.”


    This piqued Arthur’s interest. “What do you mean?”


    ke wanted to vent his anger about Callum.


    Noting this down in his mind, Arthur saw that he got pretty much what he wanted, so he stood up slowly


    and said, “Okay, time’s about up. Don’t get too worked up about this. What if it’s all just a


    misunderstanding?”


    ke replied with a snort, “So be it. I won’t let this chance slip away this time.”


    Smiling. Arthur left the ward without saying anything else.


    This is interesting. If ke and Callum are fighting over Elspeth, then someone will bother Callum


    without me needing to do a single thing. If Callum loses, then Elspeth will naturally choose me.


    As for ke, Arthur never considered him a threat at all.


    Meanwhile, Elspeth went to find Harper, preparing toe up with a new prescription for ke.


    ke was almost healed by then, and he only needed a little bit more medication.


    On the way there, she was driving past Namean River when she heard someone cry for help.


    Since the crowd surrounded the river, no cars could pass, so Elspeth got out of her car to look.


    She asked a random passerby, “What happened?”


    “Someone fell into the river. I think it’s a girl who’s about eight years old. She seems to have been in


    the water


    for quite some time now!”


    The person who was talking was a woman in her forties. She was staring at the river with a look of


    worry.


    This made Elspeth frown. “If it’s been so long, why hasn’t anybody gone down to save her yet?”


    “Don’t you know? The Namean River is very deep. A normal jo isn’t capable of doing this. Even if that


    person knew how to swim very well, they wouldn’t be able to guarantee their own safety.”


    Elspeth saw the little girl struggling to stay afloat and felt her heart clench in pain before preparing to


    jump.


    Suddenly, the woman grabbed onto her arm. “Wait a second, youngdy! Have you thought it through?


    This really isn’t suited for us normal folks! You might lose your life in the process!”


    Elspeth knew that the woman was worried for her and smiled. “It’s fine. Don’t worry. Nothing will


    happen to


    me.”


    Suddenly, the girl who was struggling seconds ago went limp and started sinking slowly. The crowd


    began to specte what happened.


    “Why isn’t anybody saving her?”


    “You can try. I don’t know how to swim.”

    Elspeth knew that the girl’s legs must have cramped up from theck of stamina and that it would be


    toote if she didn’t act now. Taking her jacket off, she jumped into the river without hesitation.


    This shocked the onlookers. “Someone… Someone jumped!”
