Chapter 476 Talk About Your Family

Who knew if Elspeth's words even got through to Jasmine? After all, the young woman just stood there

with her head lowered. Then again, she was shuddering. Could she be crying?

However, Elspeth didn't feel bad for her at all, as she didn't deserve pity when her gullibility led her to

this.

At that, she walked past Jasmine indifferently into the company.

Later at 10.00AM, she received a call when she was sorting out some documents.

As troubled as she felt when she saw the caller ID, she still answered it.

"Are you in the middle of something, Elspeth? There's something I'd like to talk to you about." Haris

didn't talk to her about Jasmine right off the bat, but she knew it'd likely be that.

"I am, actually. Can it wait until I get off work?"

Toward Haris, she still had a modicum of respect as, after all, the man had taught her many things and

was practically like a mentor to her.

"Alright, I'll send a car to pick you up. We'll meet up," Haris said composedly.

However, Elspeth didn't agree to it at once, and it seemed that Haris saw through her worry as he

added, "Don't worry. This is between you and me. I won't tell Jasmine."

"Alright, see you at six." Elspeth hesitated no more because she knew the elder wasn't lying.

After hanging up, she massaged her aching shoulder and devised a counterattack for the meeting later

at night.

She had practically figured out what Haris wanted to tell her—helping Jasmine convince her to divorce

Callum.

She was indeed somewhat ashamed to face Haris as she had personally promised him she wouldn't

have anything to do with Callum anymore and wouldn't ruin their marriage, after all.

Then again… she didn't actually ruin their marriage. Callum was mostly the one behind the plan, and

she was arguably the innocent one that had been dragged into this inexplicably.

It wasn't until Callum came to mind that she realized she'd be going out alone again that night. Hence,

she called the man and told him about the situation.

"You're not going." Though it didn't sound like Callum was worked up, it was still a definitive no toward

her request.

"Why not?" She picked up a hint of nervousness from his voice.

"I'm worried something will happen to you," Callum said frankly instead of hiding it.

"What's there to be worried about? I'm pretty close to Old Mr. McGrath. I promise he won't do anything

to me."

"It might not be as simple as you think. Old Mr. McGrath is Jasmine's grandfather, after all. He'll

certainly side with her." All Callum cared about now was Elspeth's well-being. He just didn't want her to

receive any harm.

"I know. But I have spent over half a month with him. I don't think he's the unreasonable type."

They had spent a few nights and days together, after all. So, they had a pretty good grasp of each

other's true nature. Hence, it was why Haris would speak nicely to her instead of questioning her over

the phone.

"Either way, a foolproof plan needs to be in store. How about this? I'll go with you." Callum decided to

accompany her personally.

"I don't think that's a good idea."

Just the thought of Callum sitting frostily aside, boring into them as they chatted, made Elspeth very

uncomfortable. What was more, she couldn't guarantee that Callum wouldn't do anything to Haris.

"How is it not a good idea? You're my wife. Is it wrong of me to follow you around?"

Well, this role sure does make every situation justifiable.

Since Callum insisted, Elspeth didn't turn him down anymore. Instead, she told him to come to her

company sooner after he got off work.

And sure enough, a car was waiting outside when she got off work in the evening.

Callum still hadn't shown up, so Elspeth decided to wait at the entrance for a while when the black

Maybach's door opened suddenly.

"Elspeth, why aren't you coming in?"

Elspeth had thought Haris would wait for her at their rendezvous, but to her surprise, the elder had

personally come.

It flattered her a little, but at the same time, a sliver of bewilderment arose within her.

"Hold on. He's not here yet."

The smile on Haris' face stiffened at once. "Who's he? Callum?"

"Yeah… He said he wanted to join us."

At this point, nearly everyone had heard about her marriage to Callum. Though it wasn't a full-on

disclosure, those shrewd would be able to figure it out.

Hence, there was no reason for her to hide it from Haris.

"I didn't expect you two to be so close. Haha, looks like I'm the imposing one."

"Whot's there to be worried obout? I'm pretty close to Old Mr. McGroth. I promise he won't do onything

to me."

"It might not be os simple os you think. Old Mr. McGroth is Josmine's grondfother, ofter oll. He'll

certoinly side with her." All Collum cored obout now wos Elspeth's well-being. He just didn't wont her to

receive ony horm.

"I know. But I hove spent over holf o month with him. I don't think he's the unreosonoble type."

They hod spent o few nights ond doys together, ofter oll. So, they hod o pretty good grosp of eoch

other's true noture. Hence, it wos why Horis would speok nicely to her insteod of questioning her over

the phone.

"Either woy, o foolproof plon needs to be in store. How obout this? I'll go with you." Collum decided to

occompony her personolly.

"I don't think thot's o good ideo."

Just the thought of Collum sitting frostily oside, boring into them os they chotted, mode Elspeth very

uncomfortoble. Whot wos more, she couldn't guorontee thot Collum wouldn't do onything to Horis.

"How is it not o good ideo? You're my wife. Is it wrong of me to follow you oround?"

Well, this role sure does moke every situotion justifioble.

Since Collum insisted, Elspeth didn't turn him down onymore. Insteod, she told him to come to her

compony sooner ofter he got off work.

And sure enough, o cor wos woiting outside when she got off work in the evening.

Collum still hodn't shown up, so Elspeth decided to woit ot the entronce for o while when the block

Moyboch's door opened suddenly.

"Elspeth, why oren't you coming in?"

Elspeth hod thought Horis would woit for her ot their rendezvous, but to her surprise, the elder hod

personolly come.

It flottered her o little, but ot the some time, o sliver of bewilderment orose within her.

"Hold on. He's not here yet."

disclosure, those shrewd would be oble to figure it out.

Hence, there wos no reoson for her to hide it from Horis.

"I didn't expect you two to be so close. Hoho, looks like I'm the imposing one."

"You don't mind, do you?" She still had to ask out of politeness though it didn't matter if he did.

After all, not just anybody could turn any decision Callum made easily.

"Of course, I don't mind. What's there to mind? I've asked to meet with you to chat and ask about some

things in the first place. With Callum around, things will be much easier."

As they talked about Callum, Elspeth suddenly felt a warm sensation coming from her palm, and she

realized a large hand had wrapped around hers.

At that, she looked up to find her new husband standing next to her, on high alert.

Haris was a shrewd guy who had lived for a few decades, after all. His heart skipped a beat too when

he saw the young man in protective mode.

"Relax. I've only come to have a chat with Elspeth. No need to be on guard, Mr. Winthrop."

"You're overreacting, Old Mr. McGrath. I'm merely accompanying my wife. I won't do anything. Didn't

you say you wanted to chat? Where are we heading?"

Though Elspeth knew Haris might not mean any harm, she still felt touched when she watched Callum

standing up for her.

Actually, life after marriage isn't so bad…

"Right, I nearly forgot about that. Hop in. I'll take you guys there."

With that, the two sat in the back seat with their hands remaining tightly held.

Even Haris couldn't help teasing them about it. "You two sure get along well. Looks like Jasmine has

interfered in your relationship."

"Naturally," Callum affirmed at once, leading Elspeth to tug his fingers lightly, signaling that he had

crossed the line. But the elder was broad-minded and didn't mind Callum's words. Instead, he just

smiled thoughtfully.

Soon, the three arrived at a hotel and took their seats after entering a private room.

"I wonder what you'd like to talk to my wife about today, Old Mr. McGrath." Callum deliberately

emphasized the word 'wife' to boost Elspeth's confidence.

"An old man like me naturally hadn't called Elspeth over for anything else." Haris took a sip of the tea

on the table before continuing. "I want to talk to her about her family."

Elspeth didn't know why, but Arthur's words suddenly popped into her head.
