Chapter 113

“Elspeth and I saw with our own eyes you acting intimately with another woman. Besides, when Elspeth

was hospitalized, how often did you visit her? Even Max said that the new design director went to look

for trouble in the name of visiting Elspeth. It seems like you’re pretty close with the woman now, eh?”

Callum had a very cold aura about him. “It’s not like what you guys saw.”

“I don’t care if it is or isn’t. All I know is that Elspeth needs me now, and you’ll only make her unhappy.”

Snorting, Blake continued, “This time, Elspeth sent a message for help to me first. One day, I will be the

one who resides in her heart, not you.”

Although his words seemed a bit childish, Blake meant every single word he uttered.

Callum knew it would be pointless to argue any further, so he gave up after seeing how smug Blake was

acting. He stood up and left the ward.

Coming back with water in her hand, Elspeth saw that Callum was gone and asked, “Did he leave

already?”

With a nonchalant expression, Blake replied, “He left. He felt ashamed due to my words and left.”

“Okay then. Don’t get out of bed for these few days. Just rest up. I’ll take care of you until you’re healed.”

He was shocked at her statement. “You mean, you want to keep taking care of me? Don’t you have to

work?”

The word ‘work’ made Elspeth feel bitter inside.

Yet, she had to put up a strong facade. “It’s fine. I don’t have a job now, anyway. The design director has

been replaced, so I have the time and energy to take care of you.”

“I knew that Callum couldn’t be relied on.”

Clenching his teeth, Blake knew that he must not let go of this chance.

“Just treat these few days as a vacation then. Oh right, since you’re jobless now, I have a proposal for

you. Do you want to hear me out?”

Elspeth, upon hearing his words, suppressed her sadness. “What proposal?”

With smiling eyes, Blake stated, “Coincidentally, my manager seems to have a bit of a problem with her

family, so she took a month off. How about you take her spot as my temporary manager for now?”

Manager? Elspeth was stunned. Even though she managed an entertainment company, she had not

tried her hand at being a manager of a celebrity before.

Yet, Blake was being very Insistent. “Since you’re already taking care of me for these few days, it won’t

be much to ask for you to continue doing so for a few more weeks, right? Oh, my great Miss Lynwood,

you’re the best. Just look at my injuries. Ouch, it hurts so much! Could you bear to see me going to the

set alone?”

Although he tried very hard, no tears were coming out of his eyes.

All this made Elspeth cover her forehead with her hand. “I’ll find someone more suited for you.”

“I don’t want to. Who would want to be a temporary manager for only one month? Besides, with my

identity, any Tom, Dick, and Harry wouldn’t be able to cope either

He almost wanted to beg her by holding onto her arm and swinging it.

Seeing this, she nodded helplessly. “Fine, fine. I’ll agree to become your manager. But you’ll have to rest

up and quickly get discharged.”

“Sweet!”

When Elspeth was taking care of Blake these few days, Callum never came to the hospital.

Instead, it was Arthur who would pop in from time to time. Blake, who did not know what his real motives

were, still thought that Arthur was the same gentle and quiet brother of his.

One day, Elspeth was out. Arthur used following up on Blake’s condition as an excuse to chat with him.

“Do you know that Ophelia is dead?”

Although Blake had roughly predicted this, it still made his heart skip a beat. “What can I say? Ophelia

deserved it. She tried to frame Elspeth repeatedly and even went for her life. These kinds of people are a

menace to society.”

Recalling what Ophelia did to Elspeth enraged him.

“You seem to care a lot about Elspeth. Don’t tell me you really fancy her?”

Despite Arthur looking like he was just chatting, he was, in fact, trying to worm information out of Blake.

Blake, who was always forthcoming with his brother, immediately admitted it. “Yes. I do like Elspeth.”

“But you know about Callum and Elspeth’s relationship. Are you really thinking of duking it out with your

eldest brother?”

Snorting, Blake replied, “So what? Callum won’t treat Elspeth well anyway.”

This piqued Arthur’s interest. “What do you mean?”

Blake wanted to vent his anger about Callum.

Noting this down in his mind, Arthur saw that he got pretty much what he wanted, so he stood up slowly

and said, “Okay, time’s about up. Don’t get too worked up about this. What if it’s all just a

misunderstanding?”

Blake replied with a snort, “So be it. I won’t let this chance slip away this time.”

Smiling. Arthur left the ward without saying anything else.

This is interesting. If Blake and Callum are fighting over Elspeth, then someone will bother Callum

without me needing to do a single thing. If Callum loses, then Elspeth will naturally choose me.

As for Blake, Arthur never considered him a threat at all.

Meanwhile, Elspeth went to find Harper, preparing to come up with a new prescription for Blake.

Blake was almost healed by then, and he only needed a little bit more medication.

On the way there, she was driving past Namean River when she heard someone cry for help.

Since the crowd surrounded the river, no cars could pass, so Elspeth got out of her car to look.

She asked a random passerby, “What happened?”

“Someone fell into the river. I think it’s a girl who’s about eight years old. She seems to have been in the

water

for quite some time now!”

The person who was talking was a woman in her forties. She was staring at the river with a look of worry.

This made Elspeth frown. “If it’s been so long, why hasn’t anybody gone down to save her yet?”

“Don’t you know? The Namean River is very deep. A normal jo isn’t capable of doing this. Even if that

person knew how to swim very well, they wouldn’t be able to guarantee their own safety.”

Elspeth saw the little girl struggling to stay afloat and felt her heart clench in pain before preparing to

jump.

Suddenly, the woman grabbed onto her arm. “Wait a second, young lady! Have you thought it through?

This really isn’t suited for us normal folks! You might lose your life in the process!”

Elspeth knew that the woman was worried for her and smiled. “It’s fine. Don’t worry. Nothing will happen

to

me.”

Suddenly, the girl who was struggling seconds ago went limp and started sinking slowly. The crowd

began to speculate what happened.

“Why isn’t anybody saving her?”

“You can try. I don’t know how to swim.”

Elspeth knew that the girl’s legs must have cramped up from the lack of stamina and that it would be too

late if she didn’t act now. Taking her jacket off, she jumped into the river without hesitation.

This shocked the onlookers. “Someone… Someone jumped!”
