Chapter 81
“Don’t be concerned, Elspeth. I will take care of Max!” Yelena stated.
Max locked his gaze on her. “I don’t need your care!”
Elspeth nodded when she heard that. “Okay. Go ahead, then.”
After saying goodbye to Max and Yelena, Elspeth went to the hospital alone.
Since it had been three days, the DNA test results would be ready.
However, she had no intention of reading the report when she received it.
She was confident that she and Callum were not biologically related. Margot only told a complicated falsehood to keep the two of them apart.
Elspeth then returned the report to the Winthrop Residence. She ran into Arthur, who was at home changing clothes.
When he noticed the report in her palm, he lifted his brows and smiled significantly. “What did you do, Elspeth?”
“It’s none of your concern. Don’t you have anything more important to do?”
She had stopped being cordial to him since the previous event.
Arthur turned pale upon hearing that. Then, he remembered Elspeth’s rage was justified, so he regained his composure. “Don’t be mad at me, Elspeth. You’ll soon realize that sticking with me is the best option.”
Elspeth couldn’t help but smirk when she heard him talking gibberish. “You think that is the right decision? No, thank you. I can’t get help if you try to get rid of me and kill me.”
Elspeth would never be able to forget Lydia or her mother’s death.
“Callum is not for you, Elspeth. He was in love with Emma but quickly forgot about her and fell in love with you. How can you possibly believe him? You should also be aware that she will return in a short time. Even if he wants to be with you, she will affect him immediately. Oh, and by the way, you and she are alike in that you are both obstinate.”
Arthur is still attempting to brainwash me!
“Okay, we all know what you’re thinking,” Elspeth coldly remarked while taking a step back. “You should run along with your work. I won’t bother you any longer. Goodbye.”
After speaking, she went upstairs directly.
Arthur shook his head helplessly and smiled.
Elspeth will never learn without experiencing pain.
In the evening, everyone in the Winthrop Family was present. Elspeth took the opportunity to take the DNA test results from her bag after dinner.
Mrs. Winthrop, we need to clarify certain things.”
She placed the report in front of Margot and lightly said, “I must make it clear that I am not related by blood to Mr. Winthrop. I don’t want to say anything hurtful since it will cause harm to everyone. I did the test with Callum because I want you to know that my mother has nothing to do with Mr. Winthrop,”
Callum sat there quietly and silently ate while listening to Elspeth’s explanation.
