Chapter 248

It wasn’t until Callum returned to the shore on a boat with Elspeth in his arms that the crew came to their senses and hurriedly called 911.

On the other hand, tears pooled in Yelena’s eyes as she was riddled with anxiety. “I’m so sorry. This wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t suggested not interrupting you two.”

The young woman was convinced that it was her self-assertion that led to Elspeth’s state.

At that, she lowered her head in repentance as though she had committed evil.

“Since you know you always do more harm than good, keep your mouth shut the next time.”

Yelena shuddered, and tears began rolling down her cheeks.

Seeing how upset and repentant Yelena was, Max pulled her into his arms. “Callum, she just stopped the crew from going to you guys because she hoped you two could have some alone time. There’s no reason for you to yell at her, is there?”

It was then Callum realized his malice was through the roof, and he tucked away some of his anger while withdrawing his gaze.

“Forget about everything else. What’s up with this?” Blake steered everyone’s attention back to the incident, overwrought with anxiety as he looked at the unconscious Elspeth lying on the ground.

“Someone grabbed Elspeth’s ankle after she jumped into the lake, attempting to drown her.” Malice overcame Callum once again as he related the incident. His heart wrenched painfully at the thought of his beloved panicking and flailing underwater.

“That guy sure is evil.” Blake clenched his fists in anger. “Do we know who it is yet, Callum?”

“Nope, not yet.” Callum shook his head.
