Chapter 91

“When we were young. Ophelia and Arthur weren’t that close to each other. Moreover, because Arthur has always been a gentle person since young, and he looked quite prone to getting bullied, Ophelia looked down on him and chose to stick to me instead.”

Elspeth couldn’t help but tease, “Looks like you have always been a heartthrob since young. No wonder people are fond of you.”

“Come on, rein in the jokes for a bit.” Callum put on a serious expression. “So, I never expected Arthur to speak up for Ophelia.”

“That means you believe me now?”

“Yes. Your calm and composed attitude were a stark contrast to Ophelia’s panicked state. It’s difficult not to suspect her.”

Elspeth was instantly in a good mood, and even her attitude was considerably more agreeable. “So, what’s next?”

Elspeth blinked at him. “Looks like you’re not as dumb as I thought you were.”

When Elspeth heard what he said, she was about to tease him when she suddenly realized that Callum didn’t know her identity at the moment. So, she could only swallow the words she was about to say.

“Well, fine. But if you need any help, you can call me anytime.”

Elspeth nodded. Then, she suddenly received a call from an unknown number.
