Chapter 665 Meeting Cameron
Despite her disbelief, Elspeth found Harper''s words usible. Consequently, she went to the hospital
immediately after work.
While holding the report in her hand, she found herself at a loss for words. I''m actually pregnant… The
report indicates that I am already two months along in this pregnancy. It''s unbelievable. Although I am
emotionally and physically prepared for pregnancy, I am not yet mentally prepared for this.
Meanwhile, Margot was in the kitchen when Elspeth returned with the report, and seeing her distraught
look, she asked, "What''s wrong, Elsie? Why do you look upset? Is work too busy?"
"I''m pregnant."
Although Elspeth casually uttered these words, Margot reacted immensely as she appeared shocked
and eximed, "Really? You''re pregnant? How many months? When did this happen? Why didn''t I
realize?"
Elspeth was stumped by the barrage of questions. She then nodded, her gaze fixed on Margot''s bright
smile. "Two months."
"So, I''m going to be a grandmother? That''s wonderful! Do you know how long I''ve been looking forward
to this day, Elsie?" Margot was so overjoyed that she almost reached out to grab and lift her into the air.
After that, she led Elspeth to a couch, where she promptly began to slice fruits, arrange them on a
te, and set it atop the coffee table. "You''ll be at the center of our attention from now on. Anyone who
dares to bully you, I won''t spare them. Just let me know what you would like to eat or do, and I will
have Callum prepare it!"
When Callum walked in through the door and saw his mother''s ecstatic expression, he believed
something momentous had happened, so he asked, "What''s going on?"
"What do you mean? How in the world are you even allowed to call yourself Elsie'' husband if you are
completely unaware of this?" After saying this, Margot gave her son a disapproving look, which left him
perplexed.
Since his mother was usually not so biased against him, he wondered if she had taken the wrong
medication today as her attitude toward him seemed to have changed overnight.
Then, she ced her hands on her hips as she looked at his dumbfounded expression. "Hurry up and
take care of your wife. She''s pregnant, you know?"
Pregnant? He clearly didn''t understand what was being said as he muttered under his breath.
"What''s wrong? Have you gone cuckoo from being too overjoyed?"
Nevertheless, Elspeth found Callum''s reaction amusing and uttered, "I''m only two months pregnant. It''s
nothing significant."
In the following instant, Callum quickly walked over to her, kneeled, and rested his head on her
abdomen. "Let me listen to the baby."
However, she couldn''t help but roll her eyes at him and stated, "It''s only been a few months, so how
can you hear anything."
"You don''t understand the bond that exists between me and my son—"
"Who said it''s a son? What if it''s a daughter?"
"A daughter would be even better. I love daughters the most." Callum didn''t care whether they had a
son or a daughter; he was just thrilled to have a child. Then, he added, "Let me think about what name
to give the child."
Elspeth couldn''t help butugh upon hearing this. "Even though the child still hasn''t fully formed, you
can''t wait to give them a name."
"I don''t know either. This is my first time being a father, and I''m nervous." After saying this, he was at a
loss.
"Are you sure this is your first time being a father? What about Cameron—" As Elspeth mentioned that
name, she abruptly ceased speaking.

Suddenly, Callum''s once-bright grin gradually became more subdued. "You know I never have any
feelings for that child." Then, he gazed thoughtfully into hers as if trying to exin something.
"I know. You don''t need to exin all this to me." She was not angry or upset because she had long
epted Cameron and would not mind taking that child in if given the chance. Since she was now
pregnant herself, her empathy for that child grew.
"No, I have to. This matter has always been a burden in my heart," he admitted with a guilty
expression. "I don''t know how Joe got pregnant with that child, and I don''t know how to make you
understand and ept this because it''s partly my fault too."
While listening to him, she took a deep breath and hugged him. "I''ve already let go of it for quite some
time. I hope you can put it out of your mind as well."
Pregnant? He clearly didn''t understand what was being said as he muttered under his breath.
However, his voice grew somber as he said, "Don''t force yourself to ept this—"
"I''m not forcing myself to ept it; I''ve genuinely made peace with it. Trust me. Why don''t we go and
see Cameron? Edmund said he''s taking him abroad soon, so let''s visit him before he leaves."
Callum''s eyes flickered at Elspeth''s words. "Is this truly what you want? Are you certain you want to
see that child?"
"Of course, and I know you''ve secretly gone to see him during this time. You even sent money to
Edmund."
"How do you know about that?"
Elspeth chuckled and replied, "You were cautious but did notpletely cover your tracks. How could I
not know?"
After hearing this, Callum exined, "It wasn''t my intention to keep it a secret; I just didn''t want to be a
burden on you. Moreover, I''m not that concerned about him. I just thought…" He stopped mid-sentence
when he realized he couldn''t remain objective toward Cameron. After all, the child''s veins carried his
blood, and even if he didn''t feel affectionate toward the child, he still had sympathy for the kid.
"I understand your actions, and I don''t me you. If I were in your shoes, I would have done the same,
if not more. After all, you''re his father, and all these things are expected of you." As she said this, she
nced at his mounting guilt and grabbed his hand. "All right, stop ming yourself. I don''t mean to
me you. Go and freshen up; let''s go to Edmund''s house now."
About 40 minutester, Elspeth and Callum arrived at Edmund''s house right on time.
On the other hand, Cameron was happily sifting through the dirt in the vi''s private garden with a
small shovel. When she pushed the door open, and the boy saw her, his smile faded before it was
quickly reced by a wary expression. Since they had only met a handful of times and she stood in the
distance, he mistook her for a stranger when he saw her enter the home.
"Cam, where''s your daddy?" Elspeth asked the question awkwardly because, in her mind, Edmund
wasn''t yet his father.
"Daddy went to work. Oh, it''s you."
As she approached step by step, Cameron finally let go of his guard. "You must be... Elsie, right?"
