Hiding Behind Her Superficiality novel Chapter 515

Chapter 515 Nothing To Say

After lunch, Lily came to Elspeth's office and whispered, "I made the call, Miss Elspeth, but he wouldn't talk to me. He said you'd have to call and ask him for a meetup yourself."

That little… Elspeth massaged her forehead in irritation. "I see. You may leave now. I'll call him later."

There's nothing I can do here now. Lily left soon after.

Thinking it would be hard to explain things over a phone call, Elspeth decided to visit him instead. He's not a patient person, after all, she thought.

It was 3.00PM when someone knocked on Edmund's door. He took the door, wearing nothing but a pair of pants. His upper body was revealed.

Elspeth shoved him out of the way and entered the room like it was her house. She came to the couch and saw a bra hanging on it. A frown formed on her face. "Looking intense."

"Why did you come here?"

"To see you, duh." She glanced at the bedroom and saw the silhouette of a woman inside.

"What happened? You're no womanizer."

Edmund plopped down impatiently and cracked a bottle of soda open. "None of your business," he responded, looking at her.

"Anyway, I'm not here to talk about that." She looked into the bedroom again. "But you should tell her to leave."

Exasperated, he stood up and pulled the bedroom door open, revealing a delicate woman inside. She looked at Edmund with love in her eyes, but there was a hint of fear in her gaze.

"Out."

The woman quickly picked up her clothes and hastily changed into them. She then took her bag and darted out of the room.

Elspeth pointed at the couch as she called out to the woman, "You missed something."

The pink bra was still hanging on the couch. Sheepishly, the woman came forward and grabbed her bra. She tucked it into her bag and ran away.

"Aww, you scared her," Elspeth teased.

Edmund was in no mood to play. He leaned on the doorframe and asked, "What is it this time?"

"Patience. I'm getting to it." She took a report out of her bag and tossed it onto the table before the man.

"What is this?" he asked, but he didn't pick it up.

"You can just read it. Won't take a minute."

A frown furrowed his forehead. "Can you skip the guessing segment?"

"Alright, fine. It's the report of the inspection of Max's race car."

Edmund's face fell instantly. "What?" He picked the report up and skimmed through it.

Elspeth clicked her tongue. "Thought you didn't care."
