Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Elspeth didn’t expect Callum to faint. She didn’t know what to do other than support his body and let him lean on her.

She was at a loss. Then, a clear voice came from behind her.

“Elspeth? Why are you here?”

Spencer couldn’t help but feel sad when he saw the intimate scene between the two people in front of him.

He knew it wasn’t his place to ask about them, so he could only greet them like this.

“Spencer, Callum passed out, and he has a fever!” Her eyes were filled with panic.

“Come. I’ll help!” Spencer understood immediately and helped her carry Callum into the car.

“Thank you.”

“No worries. Do you want me to bring you to the hospital?”

Spencer couldn’t express how he felt. She even thanked him for helping a man, but he was unwilling to let go of any chances to be alone with Elspeth.

The unconscious Callum didn’t count.

“You don’t have to.” She shook her head apologetically. She looked at Callum, who had passed out, and her heart ached as she was not in the mood to talk. “You must be busy. You should get going.”

This was an underground black market. Spencer probably had something to do here. She didn’t want him to accompany her and waste his time. She felt very apologetic for even troubling him in the first place.

Remembering that he had something to do, Spencer nodded, albeit a bit reluctant. “Alright, I will.”

With that, Elspeth said goodbye to him. She had wanted to send Callum to the hospital, but she saw how flushed his face was, so she took him back to the Joneson Residence instead.

Just as she was helping Callum into the house, Michael, who was about to step out, stopped her. “What are you doing?”
