Chapter 631


    CHAPTER 631 CONCERNED


    "I think this is too risky, Elsie."


    Elspeth knew that too, but she had the idea, so she must try. The results didn''t matter; what mattered


    was that she put in her effort. "I''ll think this through, alright?"


    Harper wasn''t too worried since Elspeth was a rational woman. "I''ll go back to work now." He coughed


    again.


    Elspeth was worried for him. "You should rest if it''s getting too hard. I can handle things myself." Harper


    had done a lot for thepany.


    "This is nothing. I can handle this."


    Still worried, Elspeth told him to take care of himself before she hung up.


    A few dayster, one piece of news made its way to the headlines.


    ''Famouswyer Hank infected. His days are numbered.''


    Elspeth couldn''t believe what she was seeing. Hank? She read through the whole thing before she


    believed it was really Hank. All she felt was a hint of sympathy, but most of what she felt was grim


    satisfaction. Justice. Sadly, she didn''t even get to celebrate her near-psychopathic delight for long


    before Yelena called her.


    Elspeth could hear that Yelena was concerned. "What happened to him? How is he?"


    She didn''t think Yelena could get the news so soon. "You''re overseas. Why are you so concerned


    about him?"


    Quiet sobs could be heard through Yelena''s voice. She obviously just cried. "I know it''s a bad look, but I


    just can''t help it." Yelena was a little embarrassed. "How is he doing?"


    Elspeth sighed. "No idea, but judging from the news, he''s been infected for a while now."

    "I heard there''s no cure for this just yet. Will he…" Yelena couldn''t bear to imagine the oue. She


    was shocked when she found out about the news. Someone like Hank got infected? How? She couldn''t


    believe a clean freak and an introvert like Hank could be infected.


    Yet when she called Elspeth and got the confirmation, she realized Hank must be in trouble. Still, she


    had no right to be concerned about him. He had even blocked her number. The situation just felt really


    odd. She should hate Hank''s guts or even feel happy he was infected, but for some reason, she was


    worried. It felt like she would lose him soon.


    Elspeth couldn''t believe her friend was worried. At that, she sighed. "You''re still worried about him after


    what he did to you?"


    "I know I must look stupid, but I am worried. I''ve been feeling uneasy since I found out about the news


    this afternoon." Yelena pleaded, "You have to help me out. I know you can find out more about his


    situation."


    Elspeth didn''t want to do this. If the news was fake, then her effort would be for nothing, but if it was


    real, then Yelena would totally lose sleep over it. "Do you really want to know?"


    "Yes." Yelena gritted her teeth. "I have to know how he''s doing."


    Elspeth mocked, "But he has a girlfriend. If she''s not even worried, why should you be?"


    Yelena said nothing. A long silenceter, she said, "I see. Thank you, Elsie." Subsequently, she hung


    up.


    Elspeth couldn''t see her friend being so glum, so she epted the request. The n was to go out, but


    since everyone was forced to stay at home, she couldn''t do that. Hence, she called the Damazio


    Residence. I''ll try something else if I can''t get through.


    "Who is this?" a youngdy asked.


    Elspeth cut to the chase, "How''s Hank doing?"


    "And why do you ask?" The girl got on guard, seeing that another girl was worried about Hank.


    "None of your business. I''m not his friend. I just want to know his situation."


    The girl harrumphed. "If you''re not even his friend, then why do you care about him?"


    "Just answer the question." Elspeth was getting annoyed by the mocking tone. "If you''re not answering,


    then give the phone to someone who will."


    Elspeth''s behavior annoyed that woman. "Hey, watch your tongue. He''s my boyfriend. Of course, I


    need to be careful."


    "You''re his girlfriend?" Cami? Elspeth frowned. "Cami Summers?"


    "Yes. You know me too?" She continued arrogantly, "Now that you know me, you should know that


    what happens to him is none of your business."


    "I don''t really care about your boyfriend, Summers." How the hell did this woman be his true love?


    How did she even manage to live on in his mind for years? She''s not even worth his time.


    "I don''t care. You''re being awfully suspicious. Tell me your name."


    "Elspeth."


    Immediately, the hair on Cami''s neck bristled. "You''re Elspeth? The woman who asked my boyfriend


    out? If it weren''t for you, his condition wouldn''t have gotten so serious! You''d better not see him again,


    or I''ll kill you!" She then hung up.


    The call didn''t give her any concrete clues, but it was obvious Hank was badly infected. But why did


    she say it was my fault? She was then reminded of the time she met up with Hank and pushed him into


    the fountain. Was it because of that?


    Elspeth was deep in thought when Callum drew near. He just came out of the study, and he overheard


    the conversation. After he heard the conversation, his face fell. "You met up with him?"


    Elspeth wondered what he was talking about, but she nodded.


    "You might be infected too, you know."
