Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me novel Chapter 463

Chapter 463 I Want a Daughter

After Elspeth took the medicine, the flush on her face gradually faded away, and she soon fell asleep in the ward. Callum stayed outside the door, and as the sky darkened and it became late at night, his assistant advised him to go back to sleep. However, he thought for a moment and decided to stay. If Elspeth woke up and didn't see him, she would probably be upset. With this in mind, Callum asked his assistant to leave first, and he stayed by her bedside, watching her peaceful sleeping face and feeling indescribable satisfaction in his heart. He didn't know when he fell asleep, but when he woke up, he had an extra girl's jacket on him. Callum opened his eyes and saw Elspeth staring at him with a playful smile on her lips.

"What are you looking at?" Callum was stunned for a moment, surprised that she had woken up so early and had even given him a jacket.

"I think you look good. I never realized your eyelashes are so long. They make me want to touch them." Elspeth did as she said, reaching out to lightly rub his eyelashes. Her movements were gentle and made him feel itchy.

"Okay, stop it."

Elspeth stopped, still grinning.

"Now let's talk about something else." Callum stared at her. The gloom in his eyes almost overwhelmed her.

Elspeth was startled and instantly understood what he meant. This was him coming to settle accounts. But she couldn't resist and could only bow her head silently, looking pitiful and helpless as if she had been bullied.

"Why are you meeting with him behind my back?" The thought that she dared to hide it from him and even made an excuse to keep him away made him furious.

"He requested it himself. He said that if I went there alone, he would tell me a secret."

Callum glared at her. "He asked you to go alone, and you went alone. Weren't you afraid he would have any bad intentions toward you?"

"I was prepared for it, but I never thought he would be so sinister and actually drugged me." Elspeth thought Arthur might at most bring a group of people to beat her up. With her skills, as long as the number of people was not too many, she could hold on until rescue arrived. She never thought he would drug her. It was even an aphrodisiac! Thinking about this, Elspeth became even more furious, wishing she could grab Arthur and beat him up to relieve her anger.

"Will you act so recklessly next time?" Callum knew that if he didn't give her a thorough lesson this time, she wouldn't remember it.

Elspeth immediately shook her head. "Of course not. From now on, I will tell you before I do anything."

Callum snorted. "That's more like it."

Elspeth tentatively asked, "So does that mean this matter is over?"

"Of course not. I have to teach you a lesson so you can learn and remember."

Callum carefully thought about it, then continued, "For your safety and to prevent you from running around, from today on, you will move to the Winthrop Residence and live with me."

Move to Winthrop Residence?

Elspeth's smile froze on her face. "Isn't that a bit inappropriate? There are so many people there."

"Why is it inappropriate? Everyone in the Winthrop Family knows that we are already legally married and have our certificates."

At this point, Elspeth was shocked.

"You've already told everyone about this?"

Callum nodded. "Yes, everyone in the Winthrop Family knows you're my wife, Elspeth, so there's no room for refusal. Starting tonight, you'll be living with me."

"Do I share a bed with you?"

Callum chuckled with a meaningful look on his face. "If you're willing, then why not?"

"Can I refuse? I don't want to go to the Winthrop Residence." Elspeth thought for a moment and felt that this situation was too surreal and not quite appropriate.

"Of course not. As I said, you must live with me. However… If you don't want to move there, there is another way."

Callum's words instantly piqued her interest.

"What is it?"

"I'll move in with you."

Elspeth was speechless. She'd rather move to Winthrop Residence. If they were to live together now at her place, it wouldn't be quite right.

Since they both agreed on a solution, eventually, Elspeth decided to move to Winthrop Residence. Callum didn't want to wait even a minute longer. After he finished the hospital discharge procedures, he took Elspeth straight to Winthrop Residence.

Standing at the entrance, Elspeth looked at Callum's face, smiling awkwardly. "I haven't packed my things yet."

Callum raised his eyebrows, a hint of hidden meaning in his usually cold gaze. "Go inside and take a look."

Elspeth snapped back to reality, noticing Callum's suggestive tone and wondering what he meant.

Subsequently, they entered together. It wasn't dinner time yet, so most of the Winthrop family members hadn't come back yet. Only Margot sat on the sofa, watching TV dramas and doing her skincare routine. When she saw Elspeth, her surprise was almost visible even through her facial mask.

"Elspeth, why are you here?"

Elspeth smiled faintly, suppressing her inner nervousness. "I came here today to—"

Callum intervened at the right moment. "I asked Elspeth to move in with us."

Margot's eyes lit up with surprise. "Really? Is she really willing to move in with us? Don't force her."

"How could I force her? I've already asked, and she's willing," Callum replied.

Margot's smile couldn't be contained. "That's great. I've been wanting you to move in with us for a long time, Elspeth! I'll finally have a companion."

Elspeth's mind was in a whirl. Looking at Margot's delighted expression, she felt that things weren't that simple.

"Oh, right, I forgot. You two are married now, so living together is normal." Margot held Elspeth's hand and patted it. "If Callum dares to bully you, I promise I won't spare him. Don't be afraid, I'm your forever support."

Callum's gaze deepened at these words. "How could I bully her?"

"You little brat. I'm chatting with my daughter-in-law here. Don't bother us." Margot was so eager to talk to Elspeth as if she wanted to adopt her as her daughter.

Elspeth couldn't help but laugh. "Mrs. Winthrop, don't tease Callum anymore. What if he really runs away from home?"

"If he does, then let him go. Anyway, I already have a beautiful daughter-in-law. That's all that matters. You know that we don't have any daughters in the Winthrop Family. I've wanted a daughter for a long time…"
