Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 554 Even You Think It’s My Fault

“Arthur, don’t tell me that you really think you love me.” Elspeth found his choice of words amusing. “You only did all of those things for yourself. You’re a selfish man. In order to take the Winthrop Family’s fortune for yourself, you came up with a plan to harm Callum. As for you saying that you want me, it’s only to piss Callum off. Haven’t you realized that after all this time?”

Arthur simply wouldn’t listen to her explanation at all and only spoke to himself. “Lies, lies, and more lies! I did this all for you; it was all so that I could be with you without any worries!”

“You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink. Don’t you understand?”

Arthur guffawed at her words. “I don’t care. I will make it drink anyway.”

He had completely lost his mind now, and nothing anyone said could affect him.

Seeing that his assistant was about to faint from shock in his arms, Elspeth lowered her voice and asked, “You said you like me, right?”

Arthur did not expect her to ask him this, and he paused for a moment before nodding. “Yes.”

“Since you like me, can you switch her out for me?” Elspeth requested, pointing at the sobbing assistant in his arms.

Arthur was just about to agree when he quickly pressed the knife even closer against her neck. “I don’t believe you. You’re definitely up to something.”

Elspeth felt like laughing at his words. “What can I be up to? Look, there’s nothing on me.” She turned around to show that she carried nothing on her that could harm him before saying, “I’m only worried about this girl. She’s timid, so don’t scare her anymore.”
