Chapter 125

“Why do you insist on me going back to the Winthrop Group?”

Being the vice president was equivalent to taking over half of the Winthrop Group. It wasn’t something that he should be joking about. Why would Callum make me such an expensive offer?

He looked at Elspeth with a hint of tenderness. “That’s because I like you. I don’t want you to be so far away

from me.”

He had done his fair share of thinking these days. He might not be able to change Alaina’s position and let Elspeth take over as the director of the Design Department, but he could give Elspeth something better.

“Don’t you mind the way I treat you? Now, let me tell you something. You are the future mistress of Winthrop Group. I can even give you the whole company, so don’t be mad at me anymore, okay?”

As though he had gotten over how upset he had been feeling these days, he let out a long sigh of relief after saying that.

“L”

Elspeth couldn’t utter a reply as she looked at his face.

To be honest, his words were similar to a confession that hit her hard.

What she cared about was her position in his heart and his attitude toward her.

“Alright, Callum.”

She didn’t know what to say, still in a daze.

It seemed that she had been too sensitive.

Callum eventually stopped the car at the gate of the villa. Instead of getting out immediately, he took Elspeth in his arms.

She did not hide this time. As she lay against his chest, she felt his beating heart and caught a whiff of his clean fragrance. She suddenly had an impulse.

She raised her head, revealing her eyes. While she was looking at his exquisite jawline, she suddenly made the bold move of moving across his face and kissing him.
