    Chapter 351 Miscarriage


    Callum turned around, and as he left, Elspeth reached an arm out to grab him. However, she stopped


    abruptly, her hand hanging mid-air. “Callum.”


    “You didn’t have to be so harsh; you know? Look at him walking away with resentment.” Arthur smirked.


    “Don’t bother yourself with that. Either way, I’ve already said yes. You better treat my mother soon.”


    Elspeth lowered her head and took a deep breath as a sliver of sadnessced her empty eyes.


    Arthur thought he would be happy after hearing her words, but instead, he actually felt a little upset, and


    he asked with mixed emotions, “So you’ve only agreed to marry me to save your mother, right?”


    “Don’t you think this is a stupid question?”


    Pfft. Do you expect me to fall in love with you when you treated me with that kind of attitude and even


    threatened me with itter?!


    It was a long-foreseen answer. Thest sliver of hope in Arthur’s eyes faded away, and he said, “Alright,


    got it. I will treat your mother immediately right after our engagement.”


    “She only has one month left!” Elspeth turned anxious. She could agree with all of Arthur’s conditions,


    even severing ties with Callum, just to treat her mother as soon as possible. However, Arthur kept


    dying it again and again.


    “When do you propose our engagement be held then?” Arthur felt his heart growing stuffier by the


    second when he saw her staring at him with frosty eyes.


    “Three days. That’s enough for the necessary preparations.”

    Since they would be engaged, she had to give Arthur the proper respect as well.


    After all, Arthur wasn’t only representing himself but the Blue Family.


    …


    Soon, the whole town heard about Arthur’s engagement with a random woman. On the day of the


    engagement, Arthur suddenly barged in when Elspeth was doing her makeup in her room.


    He was dressed in a gray tailored suit that fitted his perfect figure, and the smile in his gaze deepened by


    the second when he looked at the young woman sitting at the vanity. “I’ll give you onest chance. Are


    you sure you won’t regret it?”


    Elspeth, on the other hand, only finally directed her attention to the man after she finished applying her


    lipstick. “At this point, it doesn’t matter if I regret it anymore.”


    Arthur shrugged in response as if epting the answer. “In that case, let’s go downstairs.”


    She nodded expressionlessly, and Arthur extended his arm like a gentleman, leading her downstairs.


    Their engagement party was held inside Winthrop Residence, and as Arthur had gradually be a


    benchmark in the high society of this ce, many naturally showed up for his engagement.


    Soon after Arthur led Elspeth downstairs, he had no time to look after her anymore as a group of people


    surrounded him.


    Elspeth was happy to be left alone as well. She headed to a corner and started snacking away while


    sitting casually on the couch.


    In no time, she finished an entire te of snacks, and it was only when her fitted dress felt a little snug


    that she stopped eating. At that, she looked toward the ss of red wine next to her.


    However, someone else took the ss of adult juice just as she reached for it.


    “Are you really sure you should be drinking when you’re pregnant?” Elspeth asked unhurriedly while


    looking at the person in front of her.


    “So what? He’s not going to be weed anyway? So, what does it matter?” Ginna took a gander at her


    and down the entire ss without a second thought.


    “What’s wrong?” Elspeth asked in bewilderment. “Did Gilbert not find you?”


    “How can he find me when I don’t want him to?” Ginna took advantage of her tipsiness to release her


    long bottled-up frustration but hurriedly halted when she realized she seemed to have let on a little too


    much to Elspeth. “Alright, don’t think about fishing for any information for me, and you can also forget


    about telling him.”


    “Nah, this has nothing to do with me. This is between you two. Deal with it yourselves,” said Elspeth


    nonchntly as she reached for the other ss of liquor and savored it.


    “Aren’t you two close?” Ginna was surprised. “And as far as I know, he still can’t get over you.”


    “Whatever rtionship it is you think he and I are in, we’re not.” Elspeth frowned, not wanting to talk


    about it.


    At that, Ginna ridiculed, “Oh, Elspeth. I never thought a smart woman like you would have a dumb


    moment!”


    “So?” Elspeth tucked away her impatience. “What’s your point in saying this now?”


    Ginna stoppedughing abruptly and put on her resentful look. “You think I really want to talk about this?


    If it isn’t because I found out your picture is living in his wallet, why do you think I’d run away while


    pregnant just to find out whether he loves me?”


    Elspeth was stumped. She didn’t think Ginna had such a lowly side.


    Aftering to herself, she advised, “But you’re carrying his child still. Why don’t you just go back to


    him.”


    At that, Ginna chuckled wryly. “Why should I? I want him to love me for me, not to trap him with a baby. If


    he doesn’t love me, he can forget about ever seeing the baby and me.”


    Elspeth was somewhat shocked by her words.


    Comparatively, Emma was really far beneath her little sister.


    That said, Ginna seemed to be in a terrible mental state, and she might do something extreme that


    would affect the baby in her belly.


    After all, the child was Gilbert’s and also rted to her to a certain extent. So, she still tried to advise


    Ginna. “Take good care of your baby. You’ll affect its growth if you get too emotional.”


    “It’s none of your business!” Ginna took a deep breath. “We still haven’t settled our score yet. You don’t


    have to pretend tofort me.”


    What score? Emma? Elspeth gazed bafflingly at Ginna, and sure enough, hatred shed across the


    latter’s eyes. “I will certainlye after you two for what happened to my sister.”


    The other person she was referring to was naturally Callum.


    “Why don’t you do some digging about your sister instead? Find out what she’s really like,” suggested


    Elspeth as she drank thest bit of wine. It seemed that Ginna wouldn’t listen to whatever she had to say


    anymore.


    As much as Ginna didn’t like her sister, they were still rted by blood, and she would always lean


    toward Emma no matter what.


    Thinking about that, Ginna snorted disdainfully. “I will naturally seek justice from you once I get to the


    bottom of it.”


    Then, she ced the wine ss back onto the table and walked away.


    …


    Three minutester, a cry for help came suddenly from another corner not far away.


    “Help! Someone’s losing a lot of blood!”


    “Don’t just stand there. Call the ambnce!”


    For a moment, chaos enveloped the party.
