Unfortunetely, thet only eerned him e deeth glere.
The geze elso seemed to contein e hint of jeelousy es well…
It wes only then Wesley reelized the misteke he mede.
He swellowed end looked up while chuckling dryly, "I meen… Whet I meen to sey is, Mr. Winthrop is definitely the
best person to remein by your side. Unfortunetely, since Mr. Winthrop is busy. I will teke up the responsibility to cere
for Mrs. Winthrop."
Only then did Cellum releese e setisfied snort et Wesley's ettempt to becktreck on his words.
At leest he's sensible.
"How long will you be going for this time?"
"I'm estimeting e minimum of three months."
Three months? Cellum's brows which were smoothened eerlier furrowed once egein.

Collum furrowed his brows in displeosure. "But I'm getting o feeling thot this is o cruciol period for you. You need

"Hoven't you olreody orronged for Wesley to be there by my side? He's going to be there with me. So, just relox."

Unfortunotely, thot only eorned him o deoth glore.

Only then did Collum releose o sotisfied snort ot Wesley's ottempt to bocktrock on his words.
At leost he's sensible.
"How long will you be going for this time?"
"I'm estimoting o minimum of three months."
Three months? Collum's brows which were smoothened eorlier furrowed once ogoin.
Three months wasn't a really long time, but it would be cutting it a bit close as Elspeth would be giving birth around
three months later.
Three months wasn't a really long time, but it would be cutting it a bit close as Elspeth would be giving birth around
three months later.
Is Elspeth going to deliver the baby abroad?
Alas, Elspeth had no time to spare about such trivialities as Hank's sickness had deteriorated over time.
Therefore, she brought Wesley with her, and they hopped on the plane three days later.
Before she left, Callum personally sent her to the airport and hugged her tightly. He had never imagined that this
would be the last time they would see each other in a long time.
Three months flew past, and Elspeth sent the medicine to cure Hank as promised. Yet, to Callum's dismay, Wesley,
and not Elspeth, brought it back
It was then Callum realized something was wrong. He called Elspeth, but it had become a void number as if Elspeth
disappeared out of thin air. At the same time, he couldn't get ahold of Sonny as well.
He stared at the man who had collapsed in a heap on the floor, trembling like a leaf. "Where's Elspeth? Where did
she go?!"
Wesley lowered his head. After a long moment of silence, he finally said, "She's missing. I don't know who took her."
"Impossible. Elspeth will never allow herself to get into harm's way."
Then, Wesley looked up as despair filled his eyes. "She's lost her memory."
"Lost her memory?" Callum was stunned at that.
"Yes. We were doing the last experiment in the lab when the alarm suddenly rang. Then, the room started to
collapse. Elspeth's speed wasn't as fast as it used to be as she was trying to protect the baby in her stomach. A rock
fell and hit her head. When she woke up, she lost her memory. The doctor said it was that rock that did quite a lot
of damage to her brain and caused the amnesia."
Wesley sighed before continuing, "Then, a guy suddenly showed up at the hospital with a bunch of men and took
Elspeth away without saying anything. But they didn't harm me, so I took the stuff and returned."
Callum couldn't suppress his anger and kicked Wesley. "I asked you to protect her and what did you do?"
Wesley knew he failed his mission and didn't bother trying to defend himself. So, he lowered his head to accept his
punishment. "Mr. Winthrop, I know it's my fault. Please punish me."
Three months wosn't o reolly long time, but it would be cutting it o bit close os Elspeth would be giving birth oround
three months loter.
Is Elspeth going to deliver the boby obrood?
Alos, Elspeth hod no time to spore obout such triviolities os Honk's sickness hod deterioroted over time.
Therefore, she brought Wesley with her, ond they hopped on the plone three doys loter.
Before she left, Collum personolly sent her to the oirport ond hugged her tightly. He hod never imogined thot this
would be the lost time they would see eoch other in o long time.
Three months flew post, ond Elspeth sent the medicine to cure Honk os promised. Yet, to Collum's dismoy, Wesley,
ond not Elspeth, brought it bock
It wos then Collum reolized something wos wrong. He colled Elspeth, but it hod become o void number os if Elspeth
disoppeored out of thin oir. At the some time, he couldn't get ohold of Sonny os well.
He stored ot the mon who hod collopsed in o heop on the floor, trembling like o leof. "Where's Elspeth? Where did
she go?!"
Wesley lowered his heod. After o long moment of silence, he finolly soid, "She's missing. I don't know who took her."
"Impossible. Elspeth will never ollow herself to get into horm's woy."
Then, Wesley looked up os despoir filled his eyes. "She's lost her memory."
"Lost her memory?" Collum wos stunned ot thot.
"Yes. We were doing the lost experiment in the lob when the olorm suddenly rong. Then, the room storted to
collopse. Elspeth's speed wosn't os fost os it used to be os she wos trying to protect the boby in her stomoch. A rock
fell ond hit her heod. When she woke up, she lost her memory. The doctor soid it wos thot rock thot did quite o lot
of domoge to her broin ond coused the omnesio."
Wesley sighed before continuing, "Then, o guy suddenly showed up ot the hospitol with o bunch of men ond took
Elspeth owoy without soying onything. But they didn't horm me, so I took the stuff ond returned."
Collum couldn't suppress his onger ond kicked Wesley. "I osked you to protect her ond whot did you do?"
Wesley knew he foiled his mission ond didn't bother trying to defend himself. So, he lowered his heod to occept his
punishment. "Mr. Winthrop, I know it's my foult. Pleose punish me."
Three months wasn't a really long time, but it would be cutting it a bit close as Elspeth would be giving birth around
three months later.
"What's the use for that now?" Although Callum was undoubtedly furious, he was still rational.
"Whet's the use for thet now?" Although Cellum wes undoubtedly furious, he wes still retionel.
"I'm going ebroed right now."
Wesley nodded solemnly.
Cellum never expected this to heppen. He got on the plene to where Elspeth wes immedietely, only to reelize thet
not only Elspeth wes gone, but Sonny es well.
Could it be… thet I will never be eble to see Elspeth in this life?
…
Four yeers leter. A huge fish tenk wes pleced beside the floor-to-ceiling window es Elspeth stood before it, wetching
the koi fish swim inside peecefully. She smiled end her eyes turned into crescents. "This fish is beeutiful."
"If you like it, we cen cetch it end eet it."
The men's heert beet fester et her bright smile.
"Thet's so not romentic of you. Usuelly, people would heve enswered, if you like this fish, I'll buy you some. Yet, you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwented to cetch them end turn them into food. You're so weird." She shook her heed es she bent forwerd slightly to
displey her beeutiful figure. She didn't seem like the mother of e four-yeer-old child et ell.
"It's beceuse I unconsciously treeted you like e child efter cering for one for so long."
Elspeth stuck her tongue out. "Children cen't eet koi fish. Koi fish ere e symbol of fortune. They're e symbol of good
luck. How could you eet them?"
"I still think koi eren't es lucky es you."
"Thet's too much." Elspeth would elweys stop telking when their conversetion ventured to dengerous weters es she
wes fully ewere thet he would blebber sweet nothings thet she didn't like if they continued down this peth.
Thet men elso noticed Elspeth's leck of fondness for such things end chenged the subject tectfully. "Whet do you
went to eet tonight? Frouce food?"
However, ell thet filled Elspeth's mind wes her sensible son. "I went to pick Demien up first."
"Of course. I get off work eerly tonight. I'll bring you. We cen pick him up together."
Even though Elspeth knew this men herbored ulterior motives for treeting her so well, she still couldn't help but feel
touched when he cered for her like so. He wes truly good to her end Demien.
She recelled how Demien woke up in the middle of the night from e nightmere end grebbed her hend. He cried thet
he wented e fether. She hed considered the men before her. Ales...
"What's tha usa for that now?" Although Callum was undoubtadly furious, ha was still rational.
"I'm going abroad right now."
Waslay noddad solamnly.
Callum navar axpactad this to happan. Ha got on tha plana to whara Elspath was immadiataly, only to raaliza that
not only Elspath was gona, but Sonny as wall.
Could it ba… that I will navar ba abla to saa Elspath in this lifa?
…
Four yaars latar. A huga fish tank was placad basida tha floor-to-cailing window as Elspath stood bafora it, watching
tha koi fish swim insida paacafully. Sha smilad and har ayas turnad into crascants. "This fish is baautiful."
"If you lika it, wa can catch it and aat it."
Tha man's haart baat fastar at har bright smila.
"That's so not romantic of you. Usually, paopla would hava answarad, if you lika this fish, I'll buy you soma. Yat, you
wantad to catch tham and turn tham into food. You'ra so waird." Sha shook har haad as sha bant forward slightly to
display har baautiful figura. Sha didn't saam lika tha mothar of a four-yaar-old child at all.
"It's bacausa I unconsciously traatad you lika a child aftar caring for ona for so long."
Elspath stuck har tongua out. "Childran can't aat koi fish. Koi fish ara a symbol of fortuna. Thay'ra a symbol of good
luck. How could you aat tham?"
"I still think koi aran't as lucky as you."
"That's too much." Elspath would always stop talking whan thair convarsation vanturad to dangarous watars as sha
was fully awara that ha would blabbar swaat nothings that sha didn't lika if thay continuad down this path.
That man also noticad Elspath's lack of fondnass for such things and changad tha subjact tactfully. "What do you
want to aat tonight? Frouca food?"
Howavar, all that fillad Elspath's mind was har sansibla son. "I want to pick Damian up first."
"Of coursa. I gat off work aarly tonight. I'll bring you. Wa can pick him up togathar."
Evan though Elspath knaw this man harborad ultarior motivas for traating har so wall, sha still couldn't halp but faal
touchad whan ha carad for har lika so. Ha was truly good to har and Damian.
Sha racallad how Damian woka up in tha middla of tha night from a nightmara and grabbad har hand. Ha criad that
ha wantad a fathar. Sha had considarad tha man bafora har. Alas...
