Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

“Just pick up. Didn’t you do all this just to see Callum’s reaction?”

After giving it some thought, Elspeth finally picked up the phone. However, what she heard next was not Callum’s voice, but the sharp yet sweet female voice that belonged to Emma.

“You shouldn’t waste your energy anymore, Elspeth.” Emma’s voice carried a hint of mockery as she continued, “I saw all of your posts. Oh, yes, you guessed right. I used Callum’s phone.”

Elspeth’s expression turned disappointed and the light in her eyes faded. “So? What are you trying to say?”

Suddenly, Emma let out a burst of strange yet short laugh that sounded like a cat that had its tail stepped on.

“I wanted to tell you not to waste your energy anymore. Callum hasn’t even clicked on a single one of your pictures, and if it weren’t for me, nobody would even see your posts. Also, you just broke up with him, but you already found another man. Callum is too busy being disgusted with you, so do you think he’d call you to ask why you were with another man?”

Although Emma’s words sounded awful to the ears, they hit the nail on the head regarding Elspeth’s current situation.

Suddenly, Elspeth heard the trickling sound of water from the other end of the line. Before she could decipher what it was, Emma asked in a stunned voice, “Callum, aren’t you done showering yet?”

Elspeth felt her heart tighten.

The next second, Callum’s voice sounded over the phone. “Almost.”

Hearing that, she thoroughly gave up all hope. Taking a deep breath, she continued, “If there’s nothing else, I won’t disturb the both of you anymore.”

Emma’s voice was filled with gratification that she’d never had before. “It’s good that you know. Stop embarrassing yourself in front of us.”

This was the first time she was able to act so proudly in front of Elspeth, who wasn’t even able to say anything.

However, before Emma could dwell on her happiness, Elspeth’s voice was heard again. “But do you know why I haven’t slept with Callum after all the time we’ve been together?”
