Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

Chapter 391

Chapter 391 Testing the Waters

Elspeth got herself a taxi and told him the address Yelena had given her. Half an hour later, she arrived at the set. Elspeth paid the fare and got out of the car. However, the guard stopped her outside the entrance.

"ID, please."

"I'm your female lead's friend. She told me to come over," said Elspeth.

"What proof do you have? Show it, or you will have to leave." The guard was doubtful. He wasn't sure if she was telling the truth. It would be bad if she were an obsessive fan who just wanted to see her idol.

"I can call her." Elspeth took her phone out.

The guard stayed silent.

She called Yelena, but nobody picked up the phone. She must be busy. Elspeth called her two more times, but the calls went unanswered.

Her prolonged silence made the guard impatient. "It appears to me that you don't have any proof. So, it's time for you to leave, lady. Don't get in the way of my work."

Elspeth turned around and bumped into someone's chest. She rubbed her nose and complained, "Hey, can't you see someone standing right here? Watch where you're going." What if my nose got flattened?

Callum didn't even apologize. He merely said, "You should watch where you're going, then."

That voice sounds familiar. The woman looked up and saw Callum. It's him, huh? Just my luck. She mocked, "You came when you knew I was here. You're the one who wasn't watching where he was going."

The man knew she was mocking him, but he didn't respond. "Move away."

Such a heartless man. Oh, wait. He's my ticket to get inside, thought Elspeth.

She suddenly got in his way and looked up at him. "Can you help me out, Mr. Winthrop?"

"No," he refused straight away.

She tossed her dignity aside and kept pleading like a child, "I need to go in, but the guard wouldn't let me. So—"

Callum looked at her coolly. "Not my problem."

"Do you have to be this heartless?" Elspeth looked dejected. She wouldn't get angry, no matter what he said to her, but she didn't like how he refused her right away. I can't do anything about it. She sighed. Need to come up with another idea. Should I climb over the wall? No, that's just too humiliating.

Right then, Callum broke her train of thought. "Why do you want to go in?"

"To see my friend," she answered quickly.

"Yelena?"

"Yes." She froze. How did he know?

He stayed silent for a long time. Then, he said, "Let her in."

The guard allowed Elspeth to enter right away.

The woman instantly cheered up. "Thank you, Mr. Winthrop." Then, she went inside without saying another word to the man who helped her.

Callum narrowed his eyes, something glinting within them.

Elspeth weaved through the set according to the map Yelena gave her, and eventually, she found Yelena. Her friend was going through the script with the director, and her eyes lit up when she saw Elspeth. However, since the director was there, she needed to stay back, so she signaled Elspeth, telling her to do what she wanted.

Elspeth sat down. There was a copy of the script beside her, and she picked it up to look through it. Good. Timothy did a good job. She read further and noticed a familiar name among the list of actors—Jasmine.

And she was given the role of female deuteragonist. Probably used her status as an investor to get this role. Elspeth frowned. I see why Callum came.

"Can you open this bottle for me, Callum? I can't do it."

"Sure."
