Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 487 Say I Love You

What Callum meant was that it was her who didn’t want to go, and he had nothing to do with it.

Jasmine couldn’t respond anymore as she kept sobbing into her hands.

“Okay, don’t cry. Your grandpa will come and pick you up in a second.” Elspeth couldn’t help but pity her as she watched on from the side. So, she took out tissues and passed them to the crying woman before her.

Jasmine immediately slapped her hand away. “I don’t need your help.”

Callum looked at her and said coldly, “I knew it. I should’ve beaten you unconscious before I tied you up.”

Jasmine didn’t know how to feel after listening to his heartless words.

Nonetheless, he didn’t care what she thought as he had never liked her. He would even go as far as to say that he found her an utter eyesore. So, he tugged on Elspeth’s hand gently and led her away.

There wasn’t a need to lock the door. Jasmine would be leaving soon anyway.

Just as expected, Haris sent someone to pick Jasmine up about half an hour later.

Callum was told to make the exchange at the same time, so the man pushed a woman over to him.

The woman’s hair was messy and knotted. Her face was also scraped up and dirty.

If he hadn’t looked at her properly, he would’ve thought she was just a beggar that Haris found on the streets.

She also smelled awful. She gave off a pungent scent of mothballs and sweat as if she hadn’t showered in months.

Everyone covered their noses and frowned at the repulsive woman before them.

“Mr. McGrath wouldn’t trick me, would he?” Callum moved further and sized the woman up and down in front of him.

The butler stood there and watched Callum inspect the woman before him. Finally, he snorted disgruntledly and huffed, “My master would never try that.”
