Chapter 119

“Elspeth, are you alright?”

The one who called was Callum. His voice sounded anxious, confirming his worry for her. He could see that the person in the news was her. Even when the picture was taken from afar, he immediately recognized the familiar figure lying on the tracks.

Meanwhile, Elspeth could not hold back her laughter. She pinched her voice so that he would not identify her. “I’m sorry, sir. The owner of this phone has passed away half an hour ago. May I know whom I’m speaking to?”

He froze for a moment. “I’m her boyfriend. Has she really passed away?”

Though she could not hear the emotion in his voice, she had a bad feeling about what was coming. “Yes, sir. She’s going to be cremated soon.”

“Elspeth, do you think this is funny?” Callum could not bear it anymore and exposed her lie.

Stunned, she asked, “How did you know it was me? I thought I did well.”

“How could I not recognize your voice?” He took a breath. “Also, don’t ever trick me again.”

His words sounded like he was exhorting his girlfriend.

“Have you been bored lately? Why are you suddenly so concerned about me?”

Without answering her question, he asked, “The first picture in the news. I saw Blake carrying you in his arms. Were the two of you at the amusement park?”

She could hear a trace of anger in his voice, and the air instantly turned awkward. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up. I still have something to do.”
