Chapter 137

Elspeth realized that Callum was jealous when she saw how displeased he looked, which made her chuckle. “Callum, you’re acting like a child.” He had always looked like a grown mature man who occasionally showed his nasty side, but she never expected him to act childishly and argue with her as a child would.

“Follow me home.” Callum was even more annoyed when he saw Elspeth’s smirk and pulled her away without excusing themselves.

However, the acting president didn’t mind at all, and all he could think of was they were a couple. He never expected the aromantic Elspeth to finally get herself a boyfriend who turned out to be the president of Winthrop Group. I might be the one with first-hand information. With a smile on his face, he walked around and spread the news throughout the company.

On the other hand, as soon as Elspeth and Callum got into the car, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. “What’s your relationship with that person?” Callum asked coldly while he grabbed onto the steering wheel.

Hearing that, Elspeth wanted to clarify that the man was just her subordinate but realized that it didn’t sound right, so she came up with another reason. “He’s just a friend whom I met when I was overseas. Turns out he’s the president of the company. What a coincidence!” Elspeth lied nonchalantly. She was bold enough to do so, as Callum wasn’t able to get any information on her since she had covered up all information.

“Seems like you have a lot of friends from different age groups.” Callum’s tone was chilly, and it sounded daunting.

“Nah, it’s mainly because I’m sociable, so it’s normal that I have a lot of friends.” Elspeth laughed dryly.

“In that case, you should teach me how to make friends.” Callum was annoyed at the thought of the majority of Elspeth’s friends being male. She claimed that she isn’t a men’s magnet, but why are most of her friends male?

“There is no need to. Given your personality, anyone would be terrified if you tried to befriend them.” Since Callum had a callous personality, most people would be fearful of him.

“So, what do you mean?”
