Chapter 668 Finding Out the Truth

After hearing what Edmund had said, Elspeth blinked her eyes and said nothing. As the air grew awkward and tense, she decided to change the topic. "Why don't we head downstairs?"

Edmund nodded in response. "Okay. Let's go."

Meanwhile, Callum's face turned ugly when he noticed the two descended the stairs.

"Have you been waiting for long, Cal?" she asked.

After hearing this, he took a deep breath, and a dark cloud formed in his eyes. "Not really. Since you are pregnant, I was only concerned that you might be exhausted or unwell."

When Edmund heard about this, he looked shocked and exclaimed, "Pregnant?"

"Yes, but I'm not that far along. It's only two months." While saying this, she stroked her belly subconsciously as a maternal glow shone on her face.

"That's great news."

Nonetheless, Edmund shrugged and replied, "I don't plan on marrying anytime soon. Since I have Cam to look after, I can't just marry anyone. If the person I marry is ultimately not a good fit for him, it will be bad for him."

Also, it's no surprise that Elsie would have a strange expression whenever she looked at me. This explains why Uncle Callum would sneak over so often. Although he was still a young boy, he had a sharp mind regarding these matters. Is it because my mommy loved someone else and Uncle Callum did not want me? Is it because I am a nobody who is disliked by everyone? Despite his realizations, all he could do
