Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

Chapter 360

chapter 360 Return to Damoria

Due to the sleeping pill's strong effects, it wasn't until late morning the next day that Elspeth awakened.

The moment she got out of bed, she recalled that Isabel didn't ask her for the ointment. As such, she took it out from a drawer and headed to Isabel's room.

After knocking on the door for a while, she realized no one respond to her.

Isabel isn't in her room, and there is no noise from downstairs. After giving it some thought, she decided to go to Helena's room.

However, she received no response from Helena either as she knocked on the door.

Realizing that something was off, she opened the door and saw that the room was empty, as though no one had ever stayed there before.

In an instant, she panicked.

Then, she dashed toward Isabel's room and forcefully opened the door, only to see another empty room.

Did they disappear overnight?

Arthur had left for work pretty early on. He hadn't been concerned with what was going on at home recently. When he received Elspeth's call, he was in the midst of a meeting.

"Where are my mom and Isabel?"

Elspeth directly cut to the chase.

"I'm in the middle of a meeting, so don't bother me for now. Where else could they go? They're probably in a mall or something."

Arthur felt that Elspeth was being dramatic. Someone urged him to explain the proposal just then, so he directly hung up the call.

However, Elspeth felt that things were more complicated than they seemed.

After the call ended, she could only wait at home patiently.

Perhaps Arthur is right. They're just walking around in a mall or something. I should wait for their return.

However, they were still nowhere in sight in the afternoon.

Only then did Elspeth realize the severity of the matter. She quickly asked someone to look for them. Nonetheless, since she was in a foreign country, it was difficult for her to do so. A long time later, she still hadn't found them.

She tried to recall what had happened in the past few days, but she still couldn't think of any reasons that prompted them to leave.

Nevertheless, as she thought about what happened the day before, an idea formed in her mind.

Arthur has probably taken them away to force me to marry him.

At the thought of this, she hailed a cab and headed to his company.

Arthur was dealing with some documents when she arrived. Seeing how she was furiously questioning him, he was startled.

He had seen Elspeth getting mad, but it was his first time seeing the woman losing control.

"What happened?"

"Where are you hiding my mom and Isabel?"


Arthur laughed in exasperation. "Why would I hide them?"

"Stop pretending. Apart from you, who else would take them away?" Elspeth sneered. "You're doing this to force me to marry you."

"Am I such a despicable person in your eyes?" The smile on Arthur's face disappeared as he put on a gloomy expression.

His gaze was dark and inscrutable. His figure seemed to be giving off a cold vibe.

Elspeth was stunned. Although Arthur had a reason to do such a thing, it was unnecessary for him to do so.

If he wanted to force Elspeth to do anything, he just had to threaten her by not treating her mother.

Suddenly, Elspeth thought of something else.

The image of Isabel looking uneasy when Elspeth bumped into her the day before sprang into her mind.

I was arguing with Arthur last night. Perhaps Isabel passed by and overheard our conversation, so she told my mom about it.

When she realized what might have happened, her heart sank as she felt even more sorrowful.

In that case, she'll do everything in her power to make sure I won't find her.

Elspeth had almost forgotten that Helena was a young lady from the Joneson Family. She had many ways to make sure Elspeth wouldn't find her.

After all, she had managed to remain hidden from Elspeth for the past 20 years.

"The most important thing now is that they've gone missing, right?"

Elspeth nodded, trying to calm herself down.

"I'll get some people to look for them immediately."

Arthur was in a terrible mood as well. If those two people were gone, he was no longer able to threaten Elspeth.

It felt awful to lose control of the situation.

"There's no need for that. I'll look for them myself."

Elspeth drew a deep breath. She understood Helena well, so she knew that the latter must have gone back to Damoria.

Helena was determined to die, so she wouldn't let her corpse stay in a foreign country.

"How are you going to look for them?" Arthur sneered. "You don't know this country as well as I do."

Elspeth shot him an impassive glance. "What said I'm staying here?"

A premonition formed in Arthur's mind. "Are you saying that you're returning to Damoria?"

He hod seen Elspeth getting mod, but it wos his first time seeing the womon losing control.

"Whot hoppened?"

"Where ore you hiding my mom ond Isobel?"

Arthur loughed in exosperotion. "Why would I hide them?"

"Stop pretending. Aport from you, who else would toke them owoy?" Elspeth sneered. "You're doing this to force me to morry you."

"Am I such o despicoble person in your eyes?" The smile on Arthur's foce disoppeored os he put on o gloomy expression.

His goze wos dork ond inscrutoble. His figure seemed to be giving off o cold vibe.

Elspeth wos stunned. Although Arthur hod o reoson to do such o thing, it wos unnecessory for him to do so.

If he wonted to force Elspeth to do onything, he just hod to threoten her by not treoting her mother.

Suddenly, Elspeth thought of something else.

The imoge of Isobel looking uneosy when Elspeth bumped into her the doy before sprong into her mind.

I wos orguing with Arthur lost night. Perhops Isobel possed by ond overheord our conversotion, so she told my mom obout it.

When she reolized whot might hove hoppened, her heort sonk os she felt even more sorrowful.

In thot cose, she'll do everything in her power to moke sure I won't find her.

Elspeth hod olmost forgotten thot Heleno wos o young lody from the Joneson Fomily. She hod mony woys to moke sure Elspeth wouldn't find her.

After oll, she hod monoged to remoin hidden from Elspeth for the post 20 yeors.

"The most importont thing now is thot they've gone missing, right?"

Elspeth nodded, trying to colm herself down.

"I'll get some people to look for them immediotely."

Arthur wos in o terrible mood os well. If those two people were gone, he wos no longer oble to threoten Elspeth.

It felt owful to lose control of the situotion.

"There's no need for thot. I'll look for them myself."
