Even an even-tempered guy like Irving became a bit angry. “But you’re my son. Shouldn’t you take my surname?” He couldn’t accept the fact that his son had taken the surname of another man. He could’ve lied. I would’ve been happy with it.
“The Winthrops raised me. I am greatly indebted to them, and I won’t change my name that easily.” There was determination in Edmund’s eyes but a hint of guilt as well.
Elspeth could understand his feeling. It was the same reason she refused to return to the Jonesons, and she sighed. “It’s alright, Uncle Irving. This just proves that Edmund is a kind soul. He’s grateful.”
Irving was still a little miffed, but he accepted the fact in the end. “Fine, if that’s what you wish, then so be it.” I still have Elias. At least someone will continue the bloodline. “But you still need to return to the family just for show. I shall be holding a banquet in Damoria a few days down the line, and I shall announce that you are my son then.” Irving wouldn’t budge on that.
Edmund wanted to say no, but then he needed the Coles’ name to do something, so he agreed to it. Elias stayed back, while Elspeth and Edmund returned to the Winthrop Residence. Since Callum had gotten a lot better, he had moved back in, and Elspeth ran into him the moment she entered the house. He had just returned from the meeting. They used to be a close couple, but now things were awkward between them. They stared into each other’s eyes, yet they said nothing.
“Callum,” Elspeth said. That was the only thing she could say.
Callum looked at her coolly. He didn’t even give her any response, not even a greeting.
Elspeth smiled bitterly. “If you don’t love me anymore, then we should break up.”
“I know you must be upset.” Callum’s eyes glinted. “But I can’t respond to your feelings as I am right now.”
