Chapter 296

Elspeth bit her lip. “I think he’s going to remember me eventually.” His love for me is real. I wouldn’t lose him

forever.

Elias sneered, his gaze fixed on Callum. For some reason, he wasn’t his usual sunshine self and he hissed like a

snake, “You know you’ll only suffer if you stay with him. He doesn’t love you. Even if he remains with you, all he’ll

give is the bare minimum. Ask him.”

Callum really wanted to call this guy Edmund, but he held it back. They might look the same, but their personalities

were vastly different, and the way they carried themselves differed as well. At first, Callum was mad that Elias was

berating him, but he couldn’t get mad at someone who looked just like his brother. “I’ll do my best to work with

you,” he said coolly.

He’ll… do his best… to work with me? All the color was drained from Elspeth’s face. She looked even worse than

Callum was. “I see. You should rest now.” She turned around and left.

Elias shot Callum an icy look. “She came all the way here to save your worthless life. You let her down, and I’m

coming after you, Callum.” Then, Elias chased after Elspeth.

Elspeth ran all the way to the garden. She took a deep breath, the sense of helplessness grasping her heart, and

she felt like crying. The sun was glaring down at her mercilessly as if judging her for her incompetence. In the end,

Elspeth couldn’t hold it in anymore and burst into tears.

When Elias caught up to her, she was crouched on the ground, all curled up and shivering. It made his heart hurt,

and he approached her. “Don’t cry.” He bent over and patted her shoulder. “It’s not worth it.”

Elspeth sniffled. Adamantly, she said, “I’m not crying. The sun’s too scorching hot. It was hurting my eyes.”

Elias knew it was a lie, but he didn’t expose it. He didn’t want to remind her of that awful encounter, so he pulled

her up and said with a light chuckle, “Alright, stop crying. You don’t like the sun, so we’ll get some shade. If you’d

like, you can date me. I’m tons better than Callum. He’s as cold as the tundra. You should come to me. I’m warm

and fuzzy.”

He thinks really highly of himself, huh? Feeling a little comforted, Elspeth smiled. “Alright, stop messing around. I

know you’re trying to cheer me up, but there’s no need for that.”

Elias patted her. “You’re going to take me to Edmund, aren’t you? You don’t have to think about the guy anymore.

He’s not worth it.” Elias was starting to nag.

Elspeth burst into laughter, and she agreed.

Edmund took over the company in Callum’s absence. When Elspeth and Elias arrived at the company, Edmund was

working. He was in a suit, and a grim look filled his eyes. Obviously, he was not in a good mood. When he saw

Elspeth, he smiled and was about to say hi, but then he saw the man beside her. The look on his face turned into

one of horror. He looks just like me! I can’t believe this. Am I seeing my doppelganger? He froze for a moment,

then he asked, “You are…”

“Hello, Edmund. I’m Elias. Elias Cole.”

I don’t know any Elias. So, he’s a different person. Feeling better, Edmund said, “You look just like me.”

Elias wasn’t as horrified when he saw Edmund, though he was surprised. “Perhaps we’re twins?”

“Impossible. I am a Winthrop. There’s no way we are twins.” Edmund lost his composure. His smile was wiped away

and replaced by disbelief.

“I didn’t believe it at first either, but then I talked to Elspeth and your mother, and it planted doubt in my heart. If

we can’t be sure of the truth, we might have to do a DNA test. Once the results are out, we’ll know if we’re twins or

if this is just a beautiful misunderstanding.”

Elias made a good point. Even Elspeth nodded.

Edmund frowned. He mused over his options and agreed to the suggestion after some hesitation. Just then, he

noticed the tear stains on Elspeth’s cheeks, and he asked, “What happened? I’ve never seen you cry. Did someone

hurt you?” he joked, though there was real worry in his voice.

“It’s nothing.” Elspeth didn’t want to answer the question.

However, Elias didn’t want to let it go. “Nothing? Callum forgot all about your love. Your relationship. If you weren’t

so sure that he had forgotten about your love, I would’ve thought he was actually acting all this time! Why, he

looked like he was going to break up with you.”

Edmund didn’t expect that. He was going to ask if Callum was awake, but not only did he get the answer to that

question, but he also found out about something else. Yet this wasn’t a bad thing for Edmund. If Callum had lost his

love for Elspeth, then… I can court her again. The feelings he had locked up were bursting forth again.

Edmund smiled. “Don’t worry about it. It’s boring talking about him. So what if he has forgotten about you? You still

have a lot of men to choose from.”

Stop teasing me. Elspeth shot him a murderous look. “Stop it. Let’s do the DNA test now. Once the results are out,

you can see Callum.”

Edmund would love to go, but he couldn’t. “I have a meeting to attend regarding the company’s future

development plans. The whole company has been in chaos since Callum fell into a coma and missed the BOD

meetings. I’m going mad with work. I have to deal with the tenured guys and calm the workers down at the same

time.”

Huh. That does take up a lot of time. Elspeth cocked her eyebrow. “So, they’re making a scene again?”

Fury glinted in Edmund’s eyes. “I think someone’s fanning the flames. They’re trying to sow discord among us.” He

didn’t say who it was, but everyone knew.

“It’s not like the company has fallen. I can’t believe Arthur would go so far.” Elspeth’s eyes glowed with fury, and

she sneered. “I’m joining the shareholder meeting this time. I own a quarter of the total shares of the company. I

have the right to call the shots, don’t I?”

“You do, but if they try to come after you…”

Elspeth stood up as her smile disappeared. “I’m going to smoke the mole out. Just because Callum isn’t here

doesn’t mean they own the place.”
