Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 538 You’re The Most Precious

“Does that mean you have a health issue?”

Callum subconsciously wanted to check on Elspeth, but she grasped his hands. “I’m fine. I’m just not fit to have a baby, but I have to ask my mentor to find out what the actual problem is.”

“You must let me know if there’s anything you need from me.”

Callum’s tense emotions were instantly calmed. Holding his head, he suddenly let out a muffled grunt.

“I drank too much.” A sheepish grin appeared on the corners of his lips as he replied to her.

Looking at the scattered bottles of alcohol on the floor, she took a sharp breath. “You should cut down on alcohol.”

“I know.” Callum hooked his arms around her waist and rubbed his face in her neck. “Let’s go to bed,” he urged in a tender voice.

“I… just want to hug you to sleep right now.”

“Sure.”

With that, the two entered the room.

Lying in the bed, Callum back-hugged Elspeth and felt the coolness of her body temperature. He suddenly felt bad for her. “Why are you so cold?”

“I’ve always been like this.”

The truth was, she wasn’t. Perhaps after the abortion, she became relatively weaker, so there wasn’t a hint of warmth in her body.

She thought it was no big deal, but Callum couldn’t help pulling her hands in his embrace while rubbing them gently. “Let me warm you up.”

“You must really want a child.”
