Chapter 320

Elspeth only allowed herself half an hour to cry over this.

During this time, she tried everything and after collecting all the memories related to her and Callum, she buried them deep inside her heart.

Now, the most important thing for her was not to get hung up over relationships. She still had to save her mother, so she could let herself fall like this.

Picking herself up, she called Elias.

In the process of the call, she kept rubbing her fingers against the phone, revealing just how nervous she was.

Finally, the call connected. Elspeth snapped back to reality and said, "Elias?"

Nobody responded for a while, making Elspeth think she had dialed the wrong number' when a familiar yet alien voice spoke.

"Hello. Elspeth."

Edmund?!

Startled, Elspeth changed what she wanted to say.

"Why are you on Elias' phone? Where's Elias?"

Turning around to see Elias, who was in the bathroom showering, Edmund answered, "He's in the shower. Do you have something to tell him?"

Hesitating, Elspeth still asked, "Are you alright?"

This made Edmund chuckle. Although Elspeth could not see his smile, she could still imagine his bright smile.

"If you ask me that, I'll mistake it as you still wanting to many me."

Blushing, Elspeth replied, "Nonsense."

"Okay, I'll stop teasing you."

Elias acted as if nothing happened between them, for it was like they were still colleagues in the company that helped each other strategize.

This relieved Elspeth.
