Chapter 38 They Have Been Hacked

Callum’s voice pulled Elspeth back to her senses. She gazed at him as he looked rather solemn under the dim light, and her heart pounded against her chest.

“Yeah?”

Callum had a few glasses of wine. He looked slightly different, and his gaze was more profound than usual.

“Do you like Blake?”

She couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows at the question. “What makes you think I like Blake?”

He took a step forward. “If you didn’t like him, why did you shoot commercials with him? Why didn’t you reject his confession? And…” There was a tinge of something in his voice, and his gaze was so deep that she felt that she was drowning.

Elspeth held his shoulders and said softly, “Callum, you’re drunk.”

When he heard the word ‘drunk’, he sobered up a little and took a step back. “No, I’m not drunk. I just want to remind you not to be with Blake. What happened last time was a lesson.”

His remarks reminded her of what happened a few months ago when Blake’s obsessive fans kidnapped her, locked her up in the restroom, and beat her up. She felt a chill down her spine when she thought of the crazy fans’ heinous faces.

Thankfully, she didn’t fancy Blake, or his fans, obsessive or not, would have hunted her down any way they could.

“Got it. Thanks for the reminder, but I don’t like Blake.” She smiled faintly. “Is that all? If so, I’m going to bed now.”

The current atmosphere was a bit strange. She didn’t know what Callum was thinking about, and he was a little odd today, so she had the urge to escape from him.
