Chapter 151

Throughout the following days, tension brewed between Elspeth and Callum. Everyone could tell, but no one addressed it.

During a meeting, Emma suggested that the company should expand its offerings and branch out into making perfume. Her suggestion received unilateral support.

Elspeth was the only one who objected, but she received Callum’s criticisms and reprimands in return. The relationship between the two fell to an all-time low.

Callum gave Emma full control of the project, which inspired many thoughts and guesses from the others. Could Emma be the next Mrs. Winthrop?

However, Elspeth was still the vice president, so no one dared to voice their hypothesis.

That afternoon, the employees heard the news that she was leaving the company.

Emma’s desk was near Elspeth. When she walked over and saw Elspeth packing her things with a neutral expression, her heart sang with glee, but she pretended to be sad that Elspeth was leaving. “Mr. Winthrop would be so upset that you’re leaving, Elspeth.”

“What do his feelings have to do with me? We’ve broken up.”

They broke up? Emma’s heart was about to leap out of her chest as she probed, “Did you really break up with him? Why?”

Elspeth glanced at her coolly. “We broke up over texts just a moment ago. We’re not suitable for each other, and we’ll only keep fighting if we stay together, so it’s pointless to continue such a relationship.”

Although Emma was aware that Elspeth was a decisive person, she was still doubtful about seeing Elspeth leave without a moment of hesitation or a trace of reluctance.

“Do you not have any feelings for him?”

Elspeth paused as her eyes flickered with complicated emotions. “So what if I do? When there’s no longer any trust between two people, all that remains is suspicion and constant torment.”

This was exactly what Emma wanted to hear. Her worries melted away as she gave Elspeth a pained smile. “You shouldn’t be so rash, Elspeth. What if it’s just a misunderstanding?”
