Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me novel Chapter 585

Chapter 585 Fishing by the Lake

"My mother is fine now, but…"

Seeing that Elspeth hesitated to speak, Margot immediately asked, "What's wrong? What is it?"

When Elspeth saw Margot's anxious expression, she decided not to tell her about the kid for the time being and planned to ask Callum about it herself when he came back at night.

"It's nothing. I just feel sorry that I've delayed some work these few days." She simply made up a lie and managed to deceive Margot.

Immediately, Margot put on a stern face. "Work can wait. The most important thing now is to take care of your mother's health."

"I know, Mom."

After saying that, Margot sighed and said, "Bring your mother over when you have time. I have some things I want to talk to her about." As she said this, there was a hint of guilt in her eyes; perhaps she was still concerned about the thing that happened decades ago.

"Okay."

When Callum came back, he found that Elspeth had no intention of communicating with him, and her tone was indifferent, which was unusual, so he felt very strange. After dinner, when the two of them returned to their room, she sat on the bed and didn't want to talk.

"What's wrong? Why have you been feeling down since you came back from the hospital?" He guessed that she might have encountered something at the hospital, so he patiently comforted her, saying, "Can you tell me about it?"

"I met someone at the hospital today who looks just like you." Elspeth slowly spoke up, carefully observing his facial expressions.

When Callum heard that, he was stunned for a moment before smiling. "There are so many people who look alike in this world. It's normal to come across one of them."

"It was a three-year-old boy."

At this, his expression instantly changed. "Do you suspect that's my child?"

Although she didn't answer, her silence gave out her thoughts.

He nearly laughed out loud in anger. "We've only known each other for four years. Do you really think I had a child with another woman soon after I met you?"

"That's not what I meant." Elspeth opened her mouth, trying to explain, but the next moment, he pulled her into his arms.

"I know you just had an abortion, and it's understandable that you're feeling down about it." He stroked her hair, gently comforting her. "So, I'm giving you my word. I have only been with you from the beginning and have never had any relations with other women."

After spending so much time together, how could she not know what kind of person he was? She just missed her child that was never born. As she made a muffled sound of agreement, she wrapped her arms around his waist.

"We can still have a child when your body recovers."

At his words, she felt a warmth in her heart and nodded vigorously.

…

The next morning, the scandal surrounding the McGrath Family suddenly took over the internet. The article detailed the shocking and outrageous deeds that Haris had done. Instantly, the McGrath Family was pushed to the center of public attention.

However, almost all members of the McGrath Family had been taken to the police station, so no one was left to deal with the aftermath. Only Emily remained in the villa, all alone, with a group of protesters and reporters blocking the entrance.

"Mrs. McGrath, are those things that the McGrath Family did true?"
