Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 450 Mr. Winthrop Sure Is Generous

Although Callum made it sound so easy, she knew that dismissing Jethro would be quite a difficult task to complete.

It was not to say that Elspeth had a deep relationship with him. Rather, it was because the benefits he brought to the company were undeniably the greatest.

What's more, it had not been easy for her to obtain him from the clutches of the Wilstone Family. It would be a huge loss for her if she dismissed him so easily.

She was wavering over the decision of whether she should try to de-escalate the situation when Callum added, "The Winthrop Group will compensate you for any losses."

"Mr. Winthrop, you are generous indeed. But, are you sure that behavior is appropriate?"

She had known that he would not allow her to suffer any losses from the situation, but his money would eventually become hers. More importantly, the money he gave her as compensation would never be as satisfying as the money she earned for herself…

Callum's eyes never left her face, so naturally, he caught sight of the abrupt change of expression on her face. So, he immediately understood what she was thinking. "I will compensate you twice the amount."

She laughed and reluctantly agreed. "I guess I have to accept your request since you're being so sincere, Mr. Winthrop."

When he heard her agree to his request, his expression finally became gentler. "It's Thursday today. Logically speaking, you should have gone to work by now. I'll send you there."

She had been so focused on dealing with Jethro that she had nearly forgotten about the fact that she had work today. "Okay."

He could be her chauffeur for the day.

The company was located nearby, so they quickly arrived at their destination.

As soon as Elspeth walked through the door, she saw Harper walking toward her with a stern expression.

"What's wrong? Did something happen? Why do you look so upset?"

It was rare for her to see such a gloomy expression on his face.
