Chapter 102
Arthur’s words that day did cause a heavy impact on Elspeth.
Callum noticed that Elspeth was in a daze so he couldn’t help but ask, “What’s on your mind, Elspeth?”
Elspeth snapped out of her thoughts and the blank look in her eyes disappeared. “I was thinking about what Arthur said. I think…”
“You also think that Arthur isn’t as simple as he seems, right?”
Callum looked into Elspeth’s eyes and immediately guessed what she was thinking.
“Previously, Arthur used Mrs. Winthrop’s life to threaten me, but this time, he grabbed the weapon in Ophelia’s hands to save Mrs. Winthrop. Does he care about Mrs. Winthrop or not? What do you think?”
Arthur’s actions and behavior were too strange. Elspeth couldn’t figure out what Arthur was up to.
“What about you?”
“I think he faked the whole incident of him snatching the weapon.”
Although Callum did know Arthur for decades now, he didn’t understand Arthur all that well as their relationship wasn’t great.
However, after hearing what Elspeth said, even though he had his suspicions, he couldn’t resist querying
further.
“Faked it?”
“That’s right. It had to have been an act. Think about it. Would a normal, decent child joke around with his mother’s life? You can’t possibly think the incident with Mrs. Winthrop’s respirator tube being pulled out was just an accident, right? The nurses would check on her every day. Arthur’s the hospital director. Who would have dared to do such a thing if they didn’t have his permission?”
Elspeth’s analysis was flawless.
