Chapter 115

Not only did Elspeth’s words surprise Harper, but even Callum also dropped his gaze onto the ground. The latter figured that there was no purpose in staying any longer. “I’ll get going first. As for the collaboration, let’s carry it out based on what we’ve decided.”

After Callum left, Harper heaved a sigh. “Elspeth, why? You like each other, so why aren’t you being honest with your feelings? What’s the fun from this?”

Elspeth’s mind was a mess. She couldn’t discern her own feelings upon hearing his words. “Do you think that I’m the problem?”

Now that the two people were not in the right state of mind, he was at a loss for words. “I’m not sure about that, but from the way I see it, I’m certain that you guys still have feelings for each other. So, why can’t you be together?”

She couldn’t help but smile at him. “Harper, have you ever been in a relationship?”

That question caught him by surprise, hence the brief pause. “I did when I was a freshman. I was eighteen and I fancied a classmate. She’s not that pretty; she wouldn’t catch someone’s eye if she were in a crowd.”

“But that very same girl saved me. When a bunch of bullies hit me up for money, she gave them everything she had and pulled me up to run away.”

“I began to take notice of her since then. I always bought her drinks. Though she’s plain, there’s just something special about her. She gave me a lot of helpful advice too.”

“Then? Did you go out with her?” Elspeth could not smother her curiosity.

Harper smiled self-mockingly. “No.”
