Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me Chapter 276
Elspeth didn’t have a big temper, but Emma’s appearance was just adding fuel to the fire. “You don’t
want me here? I didn’t even want toe!”Emma felt disgusted to see Elspeth and Callum being all
lovey-dovey.Just as she was about to leave, Eric grabbed her arm. “You stay here. Do you not want to
debut again?”She was stunned for a moment.This was the only way left for her to debut, and she
couldn’t lose Eric’s help no matter what.Elspeth frowned without saying anything, for she saw Eric
mouthing the words, “I have my reasons.”Although she was taken aback, she immediately let it go.Eric
would never hurt her, so they would talk about it after the engagement ceremony.With that, they
continued the ceremony as conflicting thoughts filled the people sitting at the front.ke’s eyes were
filled with relief; Edmund was smiling yfully; and a hint of sadness shed across Eric’s eyes.Only
Emma was engulfed in rage that almost burned away all reasoning.All of this was supposed to be hers.
Elspeth took everything from her!The engagement ceremony was almost over, and everyone began
digging into their food. Then, Eric pulled Elspeth to a corner.“Exin. Why did you bring Emma over?”If
he failed to give a good reason, Elspeth was going to give him a big p.He spoke in a serious tone he
rarely had. “I was afraid that Emma would plot with Arthur to ruin the engagement party. It would be
better to put her under our noses. That way, we’d feel safer since she’s under our watch.”This was
something Elspeth failed to consider, but Eric had thought about it on her behalf.He was right. Arthur
had tried to ruin the engagement, so Emma might try to do something as well.Elspeth became teary-
eyed when she thought about it. “Thank you, Eric.”Looking at her slightly reddened eyes, he patted her
on the head. “Alright, it’s over. What’s important is that I saved Princess Elspeth’s engagement
party.”Despite saying that, disappointment filled his eyes. If he was braver, perhaps he would be the
one standing by her side now.“Eric, you can alwayse to me if you ever get in trouble. I will do
everything in my power to help you.”This was her biggest wish.Eric took a deep breath and smiled.
“What help would I need from you? Don’t forget my dad is Oil Magnate. I’m rich, and no one dares to
bully me.”Elspethughed heartily. “Yes, indeed.”“Alright, hurry back. Callum looks like he’s going to kill
me.”When she turned her head, she saw Callum looking at them intently. It seemed like he wasn’t tooText ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
happy.As such, she stuck her tongue out. “Alright, I’ll head back now.”“Go on.”Eric inevitably felt sad as
he watched Elspeth run into Callum’s embrace.The girl he liked for so many years had just gotten
engaged to someone else.Eric had liked her since she stood up for someone else when she was 16.
However, he was timid and didn’t dare confess to her, missing out on the opportunity.After that, he met
all sorts of people. Some had her nose while few had her eyes, but they all couldn’tpare to the
cold, yet yful and adorable Elspeth in his dreams.It was a pity now that he thought about it.
However, all that mattered was that she was happy. Elspeth didn’t notice how heartbroken Eric was as
he stood behind her, but Callum saw it.His eyes were sharp as he looked at her and asked in a cold
voice, “What did you talk to him about?”Elspeth noticed the jealousy and chuckled. “I’m back now,
aren’t I? It’s nothing. He was telling me why he brought Emma over.”“Oh? Just that? He was touching
you, though.”Callum saw Eric patting her head. They looked too close for hisfort, and he wanted to
chop his hands off.“Come on, he was being nice. Don’t be angry. You can pat me if it bothers you.” She
pouted unhappily.“Fine. Since he was doing it for you, I’ll let it go.”Callum pinched her cheeks and
sighed.“That’s great.”Before they could say more, someone came over to look for Elspeth.Elspeth
realized it was one of her men from the Evil Wind Sect. She became serious and asked, “What’s
wrong?”That person didn’t look too good as he lowered his voice. “Miss Elspeth, Arthur ran
away!”“What? There are so many of you. How did he run away?”Elspeth wasn’t ming them. She
was just surprised. Did Arthur have magical abilities?“That’s not it. A group of people showed up out of
nowhere, and they had better skills than us. They came to bring Arthur away without a fight.”He felt
hopeless. If they fought, they could’ve had a chance at winning. However, the other group threw a
smoke bomb and temporarily hindered their vision. It seemed like they came prepared.“It seemed like
Arthur was well-prepared. It’s okay. I can go after him myself if they can’t catch him.”The forces behind
Arthur wereplex, and she hadn’t quite figured them out yet.“By the way, Miss Elspeth, there’s one
more thing.”After making sure that Elspeth seemed okay, he slowly reported, “Mr. Payne… ising to
Damoria tomorrow.”She was speechless.Her face went through a drastic change, and that person
swallowed before leaving.Callum noticed her panic and helplessness. He asked, “Who is Mr.
Payne?”She was the founder of the Evil Wind Sect, and he wasn’t shocked when he found out about it.
After all, she was a woman of many surprises, and this wasn’t out of the ordinary.However, Mr. Payne
was a man. Callum suddenly felt he had a love rival.Elspeth wiped the cold sweat on her forehead and
let out a dryugh. “Haha. Mr. Payne…He’s a devil.”Elspeth had been tortured by Gilbert for two whole
years.After all the endless training and real-lifebat, she would cry if she saw him now. How could a
retired special force be so vicious?“He’sing tomorrow, huh? To look for you?”Those words were
pretty normal, but they sounded weird being put together. Callum didn’t feel happy about it.“It’s fine.
He’s not mean to other people.” Elspethughed. “I’ll introduce you guys.”Callum huffed coldly and
replied, “That won’t be necessary.”It was then she finally realized that he was jealous.“We have a
normal rtionship. He’s the trainer and I’m the trainee. Most importantly, he’s eight years older than
me. I won’t fall for him.”Eight years older, huh? He must be an uncle.Elspeth rolled her eyes. If he
visited tomorrow, she wouldn’t give in.
