Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 376 Honesty, the Best Policy

Jasmine went back to Callum’s office, and she stared at him like a kitten staring at her owner. “It’s the weekend tomorrow. Can you go shopping with me? It won’t take too long.” She was being humble, thinking that it would gain some sympathy.

“I can’t. I have a meeting tomorrow.”

For some reason, Jasmine mustered up some courage. “If it’s not important, then delay it.” She was used to everyone doing her bidding, but Jasmine had forgotten that the list of people who would spoil her didn’t include Callum.

“Enough, Jasmine.” Callum was annoyed, but he didn’t show it. For some reason, he was reminded of Elspeth. She wouldn’t say something this stupid.

He didn’t realize Jasmine was looking dejected as he was preoccupied with his thoughts. “Callum, I’m talking to you. Why are you spacing out?” What is he thinking about? Her sixth sense told her it was Elspeth.

“Nothing.”

Jealous, Jasmine asked, “Who was it? Who were you thinking about? Elspeth?”

Callum shot her an icy look. “Enough.” He would’ve been patient with her before this, but he was already angered.

So, it’s true. Jasmine felt down. Suddenly, she was reminded of something, and she took out her phone from her bag. “Calm down, Callum. I went to say hi to Miss Lynwood yesterday when I passed by Azure, and I recorded our conversation. Do you want to hear?”

Callum saw through Jasmine’s trick right away. She’s trying to fan the flames. Since it was related to Elspeth, he pretended not to care. “No.”
