Chapter 477 Quid Pro Quo

Can it be that Old Mr. McGrath knows about my mother?

“What is it that you know of, Old Mr. McGrath? Please do tell.”

At that, Haris chuckled. “No rush. It’s just that I don’t know if I should say it so easily. You see, I don’t know if Winthrop here knows about it.”

Elspeth’s heart skipped a beat. Callum was unaware of it just yet.

“No, not quite.”

At that, the elder person explained, saying, “I want to talk about Elspeth’s mother…”

“She has passed. I suggest you don’t talk about it anymore.”

Callum had thought she felt uncomfortable after hearing Haris’ words and recalled some sad moments when he saw her grim face. Elspeth, on the other hand, thought she was right about her guess.
