Chapter 362 Humiliation
Things were getting worse at the company by the day. Elspeth didn’t dare to waste any more time, so she fished out her phone and dialed the number she was most familiar with.

The call was soon connected.

“Hello. What’s the matter?”

A cold and distant voice was heard from the other end of the line.

“I need you to help me with something—”

Before Elspeth could finish her words, the man cut her off dispassionately. “No.”

She knew that would be the kind of reply she’d get, but she still couldn’t help feeling hurt.

“I—”

“Callum, guess what I’ve bought you for lunch. That’s right! It’s your favorite braised beef ribs. Give it a taste.”

The woman’s voice over the phone was piercing.

Without making a guess, Elspeth knew that the woman must be Callum’s fiancée, Jasmine McGrath.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now.”

Before Elspeth could say more, the call ended. The disconnected tone reminded her that she was no longer in any place to contact him.

Her employees were suddenly heard arguing outside the room, so she kept her phone. She knew that she couldn’t sit back and wait for the company’s demise.

Even if the chance was slim, she had to give it a try.

Since Callum wasn’t willing to talk to her over the phone, she decided to head to his company.

When she arrived at the Winthrop Group, she politely said to the receptionist, “I’d like to see your president.”

She was wearing sunglasses. Apart from her friends and relatives, others wouldn’t recognize her at first glance.

The receptionist had seen Elspeth before. When she realized it was indeed Elspeth, she was surprised, but she was a professional receptionist, after all. As such, she asked with a smile, “Do you have an appointment with the president?”
