Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 363 You Can Leave Now

He said he doesn’t want to see me anymore.

Elspeth felt her heart twisting, as though someone was grabbing it.

Despite that, she still lifted her chin defiantly and solemnly said, “I don’t care what you think of me, but I hope you’ll consider saving my company. If my company fails, yours will be next. I’m sure you understand that, Mr. Winthrop.”

She was right. The Winthrop Group and the Azure Corporation were the most powerful companies in Damoria. It could even be said that the Azure Corporation had greater potential than the others.

Once the Azure Corporation was gone for good, the other one would be targeted by their opponents as well.

“I know.” Callum stared fixedly at Elspeth, his emotions undulating in his heart. She knows she can’t persuade me to save her company by using our relationship, and now she starts talking business. That’s typical of her.

“Since you’ve said so, I’ll stop bothering you.” A hint of disappointment flashed across Elspeth’s eyes.

She didn’t have a way to persuade Callum, for the man was obstinate. Regardless of what she said, he just wouldn’t give her a hand.

It seemed that he was determined to let the Azure Corporation fail.

Having nothing else to say, Elspeth turned around and left, looking desolate.

Unbeknownst to her, Callum was watching her leave with a gaze that was as dark as ink.

Now that Callum had turned her down, Elspeth decided to return to her company. Harper had been waiting for her. When he saw her dejected expression, he knew what happened.

“He’s not willing to help me, Harper.”

Elspeth seemed to have used up all her energy to utter those words, as though she would pass away the next moment.

Harper was heartbroken to see her like this, but he had no idea what he could say to console her.

“It’s fine. We’ll get through this.”

He emphasized the word we.

Elspeth knew he was only trying to console her, so she forced a smile. “I’m alright. Don’t worry. I’ll try to come up with a solution.”
