Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 683 Lost Her Memory

After the last incident, Sonny escaped abroad immediately. He claimed that he would be spending his retirement elsewhere, but in truth, it was actually a ploy to avoid trouble from looking for him.

He even set Elspeth’s contact to do-not-disturb mode.

Meanwhile, Elspeth wasn’t about to call him about Hank’s condition this time unless the situation turned utterly dire.

Besides, she had a surprising discovery that Wesley possessed fantastic medical skills. He was intelligent and could pick things up very quickly. She just needed to give him some tips and he could complete the tasks beautifully. So, she made him her assistant soon enough.

Hank’s sickness was a hereditary disease. So, it was a little tricky for Elspeth to cure him. She had poured a lot of time and effort into researching this particular disease and possible cures, yet she remained unsuccessful thus far. In the end, she decided to go abroad to look for Sonny to discuss a solution and look through the medicines abroad during her journey. That was why she planned to bring Wesley along with her on this trip.

Callum had also expressed an interest in joining the party, but she rejected him sternly, saying, “You still need to oversee the Winthrop Group. You can’t leave. So, there’s no need for you to tag along.”

Callum furrowed his brows in displeasure. “But I’m getting a feeling that this is a crucial period for you. You need someone to take care of you.”

“Haven’t you already arranged for Wesley to be there by my side? He’s going to be there with me. So, just relax.”

Wesley, who was standing by the side, thumped on his chest and promised that he would take good care of Elspeth. Unfortunately, that only earned him a death glare.

The gaze also seemed to contain a hint of jealousy as well…

It was only then Wesley realized the mistake he made.

He swallowed and looked up while chuckling dryly, “I mean… What I mean to say is, Mr. Winthrop is definitely the best person to remain by your side. Unfortunately, since Mr. Winthrop is busy. I will take up the responsibility to care for Mrs. Winthrop.”

Only then did Callum release a satisfied snort at Wesley’s attempt to backtrack on his words.

At least he’s sensible.

“How long will you be going for this time?”

“I’m estimating a minimum of three months.”

Three months? Callum’s brows which were smoothened earlier furrowed once again.

Three months wasn’t a really long time, but it would be cutting it a bit close as Elspeth would be giving birth around three months later.

Is Elspeth going to deliver the baby abroad?

Alas, Elspeth had no time to spare about such trivialities as Hank’s sickness had deteriorated over time.

Therefore, she brought Wesley with her, and they hopped on the plane three days later.
