Chapter 113

“Elspeth and I saw with our own eyes you acting intimately with another woman. Besides, when Elspeth was hospitalized, how often did you visit her? Even Max said that the new design director went to look for trouble in the name of visiting Elspeth. It seems like you’re pretty close with the woman now, eh?”

Callum had a very cold aura about him. “It’s not like what you guys saw.”

“I don’t care if it is or isn’t. All I know is that Elspeth needs me now, and you’ll only make her unhappy.” Snorting, Blake continued, “This time, Elspeth sent a message for help to me first. One day, I will be the one who resides in her heart, not you.”

Although his words seemed a bit childish, Blake meant every single word he uttered.

Callum knew it would be pointless to argue any further, so he gave up after seeing how smug Blake was acting. He stood up and left the ward.

Coming back with water in her hand, Elspeth saw that Callum was gone and asked, “Did he leave already?”

With a nonchalant expression, Blake replied, “He left. He felt ashamed due to my words and left.”

“Okay then. Don’t get out of bed for these few days. Just rest up. I’ll take care of you until you’re healed.”

He was shocked at her statement. “You mean, you want to keep taking care of me? Don’t you have to work?”

The word ‘work’ made Elspeth feel bitter inside.

Yet, she had to put up a strong facade. “It’s fine. I don’t have a job now, anyway. The design director has been replaced, so I have the time and energy to take care of you.”

“I knew that Callum couldn’t be relied on.”

Clenching his teeth, Blake knew that he must not let go of this chance.

“Just treat these few days as a vacation then. Oh right, since you’re jobless now, I have a proposal for you. Do you want to hear me out?”

Elspeth, upon hearing his words, suppressed her sadness. “What proposal?”

With smiling eyes, Blake stated, “Coincidentally, my manager seems to have a bit of a problem with her family, so she took a month off. How about you take her spot as my temporary manager for now?”
