Chapter 95

“I’m looking for Harper. Where is he?”

“He is away on a business trip, so I don’t think he is around today. By the way, who is the man who gave you a lift, Miss Lynwood? Could he be your boyfriend?” The woman nodded in a preoccupied manner.

“No.” Elspeth blushed, becoming speechless at once.

“Come on, I’m already a mother of two kids. Do you think I can’t tell what that little gesture meant? Miss Lynwood, that man seems like a decent person. Why don’t you give him a chance?”

“Do you seriously have no idea who he is?” Elspeth raised her eyebrows and looked at her.

“Who is he?” The woman asked, seemingly confused.

“His name is Callum Winthrop.”

Elspeth nodded, finding the woman’s surprised look amusing. “What’s the matter?”
