Chapter 126

Just like that, Theodore dumped it on Elspeth to make the tough decision.

She felt a painful headache hit her as she looked at the people in front of her.

“Take a good look, Elspeth. Whom will you choose?”

Blake’s sinister eyes fell on Callum as he urged unrelentingly, “You must think carefully.”

She sucked in a deep breath. “I won’t choose.”

“Why not?” asked Callum, whose face instantly fell when he heard that.

Seeing how dark his face turned, she realized that she had unknowingly offended the young master, and her heart skipped a beat.

“Fine. I choose Callum.”
