Frank swallowed nervously, rightfully scared that Callum might actually punch him in the next second.
In the end, Callum suddenly frowned with a look of hurt in his eyes. “Honey, he bullied me first.”
Elspeth was deeply shocked. Is Callum playing coy with me?
Even Frank and Spencer standing nearby never expected Callum’s reaction. Instead, they were so shocked that their jaws were agape.
A 1.9-meter-tall stern-looking man acting spoiled certainly looks pretty ridiculous. Wait a minute… ‘Honey’?
Elspeth curled her finger and unceremoniously flicked him on the forehead. “We’re not married. Don’t get ahead of yourself.”
“It’s only a matter of time.”
The corner of Callum’s mouth quirked into a triumphant grin. He had plenty of techniques to deal with her.
Spencer couldn’t stand the sight of them being so intimate with each other. A look of inexplicable sadness entered his eyes as he stood up. “I’m afraid something came up. I’ll be leaving first.”
After he said that, he left without another word.
Similarly, Callum and Elspeth had other matters that needed their attention and left quickly so that they did not disturb Frank’s rest.
Frank watched them leave with a smile on his face. However, the moment they left, the smile slid off his face, and he made a phone call. “Come back. I know you’re still here.”
After some time, Spencer entered the hospital ward with the smell of cigarettes lingering wafting from his body. There was a slight red tinge at the corner of his eyes. “How did you know I was still here?”
“Pfft.” Frank snorted and pointed out in amusement. “Do you think I don’t know you well? When you looked at Elspeth, your eyes were practically falling out of their sockets. If I couldn’t figure out what you were thinking, then all the years we’ve been best friends would have been a waste.”
“But Elspeth has a boyfriend now. They also looked well-matched together. My feelings for her are nothing when they’re happy together.”
Spencer laughed bitterly and sighed in dejection. He never once thought of fighting Callum for Elspeth. Yet, the sight of them standing in front of him as a couple was agonizing to him.
Rather than saying that it was a painful sight, he might as well admit that he was jealous.
