Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 463 I Want a Daughter

After Elspeth took the medicine, the flush on her face gradually faded away, and she soon fell asleep in the ward. Callum stayed outside the door, and as the sky darkened and it became late at night, his assistant advised him to go back to sleep. However, he thought for a moment and decided to stay. If Elspeth woke up and didn’t see him, she would probably be upset. With this in mind, Callum asked his assistant to leave first, and he stayed by her bedside, watching her peaceful sleeping face and feeling indescribable satisfaction in his heart. He didn’t know when he fell asleep, but when he woke up, he had an extra girl’s jacket on him. Callum opened his eyes and saw Elspeth staring at him with a playful smile on her lips.

“What are you looking at?” Callum was stunned for a moment, surprised that she had woken up so early and had even given him a jacket.

“I think you look good. I never realized your eyelashes are so long. They make me want to touch them.” Elspeth did as she said, reaching out to lightly rub his eyelashes. Her movements were gentle and made him feel itchy.

“Okay, stop it.”

Elspeth stopped, still grinning.

“Now let’s talk about something else.” Callum stared at her. The gloom in his eyes almost overwhelmed her.

Elspeth was startled and instantly understood what he meant. This was him coming to settle accounts. But she couldn’t resist and could only bow her head silently, looking pitiful and helpless as if she had been bullied.

“Why are you meeting with him behind my back?” The thought that she dared to hide it from him and even made an excuse to keep him away made him furious.

“He requested it himself. He said that if I went there alone, he would tell me a secret.”

Callum glared at her. “He asked you to go alone, and you went alone. Weren’t you afraid he would have any bad intentions toward you?”

“I was prepared for it, but I never thought he would be so sinister and actually drugged me.” Elspeth thought Arthur might at most bring a group of people to beat her up. With her skills, as long as the number of people was not too many, she could hold on until rescue arrived. She never thought he would drug her. It was even an aphrodisiac! Thinking about this, Elspeth became even more furious, wishing she could grab Arthur and beat him up to relieve her anger.

“Will you act so recklessly next time?” Callum knew that if he didn’t give her a thorough lesson this time, she wouldn’t remember it.
