Yelena immediately realized that Jordan had special feelings for Elspeth. She whispered in Elspeth’s ear with a smile, “Elspeth, look how good Mr. Carr is. He seemingly bailed me out, but in reality, he did that because he cares about you. Why do you have to be hung up on Callum? Isn’t it better to choose Mr. Carr instead?”

Elspeth gave her a dirty look. “Why are you so anxious to mind someone else’s business? You’re not out of the woods yet. I should’ve left you alone at the police station just now.”

Yelena screwed up her face at once. “Okay, I’m wrong.”

“No matter what, thank you for helping Yelena out today,” Elspeth said, looking as usual despite thanking Jordan for what he did.

Jordan raised his eyebrows. “In that case, why don’t you return the favor by giving me your hand in marriage?”

“Over my dead body.”

Jordan frowned. “Over your dead body? Are you sure about that?”

Elspeth shot a glare at him. “Get lost.”

Jordan smiled. “Alright, I shan’t keep you company any longer. I’ve got something else to deal with.”

“That’s most welcome. Take care and goodbye, then.”

Instead of taking offense at what Elspeth said, Jordan laughed heartily.

After the man had left, Elspeth glanced around her; only then did she notice that Blake looked rather surly. “What’s wrong?”

Blake shook his head with a sigh. “It’s nothing. It’s just that I’m too useless.” I was no match for Callum before, and now I’m no match for Jordan. It’s like I’m never qualified to stand side-by-side with Elspeth.

“No, you’re not. You’re an actor. If you had the ear of the police, you would’ve been blacklisted in show business long ago, okay?” Elspeth joked in an attempt to comfort him.

Blake smiled a forced smile. “Okay, I know that.”
