Even though she knew it was normal that Callum was treating her indifferently, it still made Elspeth tear up.

Noticing the dour mood, Callum paused for a moment and added, “Elias and Edmund are waiting for you. They have something to tell you.”

“I see.” Elspeth smiled bitterly. She nodded and left the office. Then, she took a deep breath to hide her pain. Standing outside the door was a pair of identical men smiling and waving at her.
