Although Eric was against it, he chose to keep quiet when he saw how calm Callum was, not to mention Elspeth was smiling at the mention of an engagement.

“Alright, since both of you have decided on the engagement, I have no comments. My only request is for my name not to be associated with the both of you once the announcement is made.” He didn’t want to be seen as a simp.

“Alright, don’t worry about that. We won’t let your reputation get tainted.” Just then, she suddenly thought of Emma and asked, “Right, I’ve been wanting to ask you this—has Emma been stirring up trouble recently?”

“Don’t bring this up. She’s been calling and begging to see me these days. I couldn’t take it anymore, so I changed my number. Right, I’ll send you my new number.” The thought of it gave Eric a headache.

Elspeth could understand why Emma was acting that way. If she lost Eric’s backing, she would lose all of her trump cards. Thus, she wouldn’t be that stupid to offend Eric.

“Do you like Emma a lot?”

Hearing that, Eric scratched his head and replied sluggishly, “I think so. You can say that we have been together for three years. Although she’s my sugar baby, I do have feelings for her.”

“In that case, do you know what happened between her and Callum?” Since Eric was her friend, she hoped that he wouldn’t get fooled by Emma even though they weren’t particularly close.

Eric saw that coming and answered boldly, “I’m Oil Magnate’s son. Do you think I didn’t run a background check on her before we got together?”

With that, he glanced at Callum and said with a smile, “I knew that she hadn’t broken up with Callum when we first got together. However, I wasn’t bothered by it. I always make sure that I get my hands on everything I like, after all.”

Callum’s gaze darkened slightly upon hearing that, but his emotions calmed down shortly after.

How could he say that outright when Callum is standing next to him? Fearing that Callum would be triggered by the revelation and stab Eric in the chest with a fruit knife, Elspeth quickly changed the topic. “Well, do you know what happened between her and Arthur?”
