Chapter 315

With that thought in mind. Elspeth swiftly switched up what she was going to say. "I'm in a safe place right now. so all's well with me. but the person who's helping me has asked that I don't divulge my location to anyone else. It might cause trouble for him."

Knowing Gilbert's personality, he would undoubtedly save her and take her away if she told him the truth, but that would only exacerbate the situation. Arthur might be pissed off, and it could affect Mom's treatment.

"Is that true?" Gilbert sounded a little disbelieving.

"Of course. Wlien have I ever lied to you?" Elspeth chuckled lightly.

Gilbert huffed at the recollection of all the lies Elspeth had ever told him. "You're asking me when you've ever lied to me? Tliree years ago, you tricked me into bringing toilet paper to you at the public washroom. You even said no one else was around, but I ended up being called a pervert by a bunch of women. Four years ago. you dined and dashed but you pushed the blame on me—"

He was getting even more agitated with each passing second, so Elspeth quickly apologized. "Sony! I apologize for everything! I shouldn't have done those things. You're a magnanimous man, aren't you? Please forgive me. Still, I'm not lying to you this time."

Had it been at any other point in time, she would've acted as if she didn't have a clue about what he was saying, but right now, she could hear the ruckus around him.

He's probably at a bar and there are so many people around him. She would be mortified by the things Gilbert revealed about her, so she didn't want to drag this out with him.

"Fine. I'll believe you just this once." Gilbert's anger dissipated.

Harper was speechless as he watched them bicker, but he was still concerned about Elspeth. "When are you coming back, Elsie?"

Going back...

After leaving this time, she didn't know whether she could ever return.

Elspeth suppressed her melancholic emotions and said with a chuckle, "It won't be long before I go back, but I need to stay low for now. I can head back once everyone has forgotten about this."

Harper didn't comment any further as he knew that Elspeth was a cautious person. He merely reminded her to take care of herself.

"I'll leave Azure in your hands for now. Help me keep an eye on Gilbert too. If anything happens, report it to me right away. If he bullies you again by saying that you're a snitch, then tell me about it. and I'll teach him a lesson."
