Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Callum’s eyes darkened as he stared.

Jay followed his gaze and noticed Elspeth. He thought that, from the way Callum looked at her, he must be interested. And so, a sinful smile formed on his lips. “I see that she’s your type. Good choice. She’s probably the best-looking lady I’ve seen around.”

Jay was sure that Callum was interested in Elspeth, and he hurriedly made the arrangements. “Mr. Winthrop, are you into that woman? If so, we can get her to serve you.”

This time, Callum did not turn down his offer. He felt extremely uneasy when he noticed that Elspeth was almost pressing her body against another man. Before he knew it, he nodded and said to Jay, “Sure.”

“Anything, as long as you’re happy! Great, let’s head over.” Jay took the lead and walked into the store, with Callum and the assistant following right behind. When Callum walked past Elspeth, he did not as much as take a look at her. He went straight into the store.

That puzzled Jay, for Callum had appeared very interested in the woman earlier. Why didn’t he even say hi to her at the door?

As Callum was moving fast, Jay had to drop his thoughts and keep up immediately.

Naturally, Elspeth did not notice Callum walking past her. Instead, she was flashing a fake smile at a stocky man, looking as charming as ever.

The man said in a gruff voice, “How much do you charge per night?”

She pointed at herself and beamed seductively. “Me? Why don’t you try me out? You’ll know then.”

The pair chatted for a bit at the door. The man started having lustful thoughts about Elspeth because of her looks. “Sure, let’s head in now.”

When he wrapped his arm around her waist, his desire was immediately aroused. She sensed his biological changes, which disgusted her to no end. However, she could not express her emotions overtly.
