Callum looked at Elspeth. “You may leave.”

Even though she knew it was normal that Callum was treating her indifferently, it still made Elspeth tear up.

Noticing the dour mood, Callum paused for a moment and added, “Elias and Edmund are waiting for you. They have something to tell you.”

“I see.” Elspeth smiled bitterly. She nodded and left the office. Then, she took a deep breath to hide her pain. Standing outside the door was a pair of identical men smiling and waving at her. The sight of them made her sadness go away a little. She approached Elias. “I’ve told the doctor to make your case the top priority. It’s been an hour, so the results should be out now.”

Elias and Edmund exchanged a look, then they chuckled. “You actually believed that? My, you’ve gotten a lot stupider, Elspeth!”

Elspeth laughed. “You’re taking this well, Edmund. Don’t
