Chapter 95

“I’m looking for Harper. Where is he?”

“He is away on a business trip, so I don’t think he is around today. By the way, who is the man who gave you a lift, Miss Lynwood? Could he be your boyfriend?” The woman nodded in a preoccupied manner.

“Do you seriously have no idea who he is?” Elspeth raised her eyebrows and looked at her.

“Who is he?” The woman asked, seemingly confused.

“His name is Callum Winthrop.”

“Wait, what? Callum Winthrop?” the woman responded, her voice going several octaves higher.

Elspeth nodded, finding the woman’s surprised look amusing. “What’s the matter?”

“Callum Winthrop may be a golden bachelor whom every lady out there wants to marry, but the way I see it, he is a little too cold and indifferent. Thus, I don’t think he’ll be a good match for you…. You deserve someone better.”
