Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 686

Chapter 686 Are You Really My Father?
Elspeth sniggered at the woman when she deliberately distorted the truth. “Sure.
You’re only guilty if you’re caught red-handed. I have to say, I didn’t think you’d also be
guilty of stupidity.”
The woman desperately wanted to snarl at Elspeth for such humiliation, but when she
remembered that the man was still looking at her, she pretended to be gentle and
understanding instead. “I know that you’ve always hated me, but today, I’ll forgive you
if you apologize to me and my son.”
Elspeth’s eyes widened. “What? Are you dreaming?”
“You—”
“What about me?” Elspeth snorted disdainfully. “You’d better apologize to me.
Otherwise, I can’t promise that I’ll let you off. Of course, your son is included in this
deal.”
“The audacity!” The woman cast an aggrieved look at Callum. “Sir, please you have to
see how lawless she’s acting. She’s the one in the wrong in this situation, but she’s so
aggressive and unreasonable.”
Callum nodded as though he was pondering over it. “You’re right. She is fierce and
unreasonable.”
Elspeth glowered at him. “Stay out of this if you’re not on my side. Otherwise, I’ll bite
your head off, too.”
The scene of her wielding her sharp tongue was very familiar to him, but she now had
an added cuteness to her. His reflex reaction was faster than his thought process, and
he couldn’t stop himself from taking her by the waist and planting a kiss on her lips.
“You didn’t change.”
It had been barely two minutes since Elspeth first met this man before he did
something so outrageous out of the blue and it caught her by surprise. Regardless,

she snapped back to her senses the very next second as she raised her hand,
slapping him across the face.
Slap! The sound of her palm striking his face echoed through the classroom loud and
clear.
Callum held his cheek with a blank look on his face. “Did you just hit me?”
“So what if I did, you sicko? You deserve it for kissing me without my consent!” Then,
she shifted her panicked gaze to her son and saw that he was staring at her with a
lost look on his face. “Damian, this is…”
While she was struggling to explain herself to Damian, he was surprisingly more
considerate than she expected. He simply calmly answered, “It’s okay, Mommy. I
know what you’re doing. You’re kissing.” Worried that Elspeth would get the wrong
idea, he added, “Don’t worry. I also know that you won’t get pregnant from kissing.”
Immediately, a helpless look washed over Elspeth’s face as she stood there at a loss
for words. Before she could stop herself, her hand reached out and pinched Callum
hard on his arm. That’s for him being a bad example to the kids!
Startled by the sudden jolt of pain, he exclaimed, “What? Did I do anything wrong by
kissing my wife?”
Wife? Elspeth, who was ready to reprimand him from the high moral ground, went
speechless at his statement. “Don’t spout nonsense. Who’s your wife?”
He pulled her around and checked her carefully from head to toe before saying, “Did
you forget that you’re my wife?”
Bewildered to be held in this manner by a stranger, she shoved him aside in
annoyance. “There’s no way that I’m your wife. We’re unrelated, so stop trying to act
friendly with me. Even if you claim that I’m your wife, it doesn’t change the fact that
you’re a rogue.” This guy’s probably just looking for an excuse for his behavior. What
a shameless jerk!
Meanwhile, the actual unreasonable woman, who was left by the sidelines, was forced
to witness the intimate interaction between Elspeth and Callum. Then, she finally
realized that they were somehow connected and blurted in disbelief, “Is he your
husband? That can’t be true.”
“Why can’t I be her husband?”
The woman never imagined that Elspeth’s husband was so young and handsome,
and jealousy started to bubble up in her chest. “She doesn’t have a husband! She’s
been living here for so long, but I’ve never seen any man by her side. Are you an actor
she hired?”
Callum narrowed his eyes in satisfaction upon hearing that Elspeth didn’t have any
man by her side after all these years. “Just because she doesn’t have a man by her
side doesn’t mean that she doesn’t have a husband. If she doesn’t have a husband,
how can you explain her child?”
The woman snorted indignantly from her nostrils. “This child is a b*stard, and only
God knows who his father is.”
The smile on Callum’s face disappeared when she mentioned the word ‘b*stard’
again. “I’ll give you another chance to articulate yourself. What did you just call him?”
When she realized that he was mad, she panicked and changed her statement. “I’m
not sure, either.”
Elspeth wasn’t expecting that her aura was incomparable to this man’s and was
