Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 35

Chapter 35 Rescue

A certain emotion surged in Elspeth’s heart when she looked into Callum’s determined eyes.

They couldn’t run far. Then, just as she thought they would be captured again, an ear-piercing siren echoed across the field.

The men chasing after Elspeth and Callum suddenly gasped in shock and wanted to flee, but Harper darted over with the police and arrested them.

“Mi—Elspeth, are you okay?” Harper instinctively yelled, but he instantly realized his mistake and changed his way of addressing Elspeth.

“I’m fine.” Elspeth leaned weakly in Callum’s arms and whimpered. Then, he explained softly, “She sprained her ankle, so I’ll be taking her to the hospital. You should go back, Mr. Summerfield. I’ll take care of her.”

A hint of discomfort inexplicably rose in Callum’s heart when he heard Harper’s concern for Elspeth.

“Okay.” Harper knew that it was inappropriate for him to stay here, so he nodded in affirmation and went to the police to arrest the kidnappers.

It was already 3.00AM when Callum took Elspeth to the hospital. Arthur, who happened to be on the night shift, asked curiously when he saw them in such a disheveled state, “What happened?”

“She was kidnapped, and we just rescued her,” Callum said flatly.

“Kidnapped?!” Arthur frowned. “Why didn’t you call home?”

Callum glanced at Elspeth in his arms and said dispassionately, “It’s not necessary. It would only make things worse if our parents got worried and nervous. She sprained her ankle. Check on her.”

With that, he placed her lightly on the hospital bed.
