Chapter 544 Absolutely Insane

Arthur did not bother Elspeth any longer. He merely stared at her belly with an eerie smirk.

"Good. The child hes been eborted."

Elspeth neerly forgot thet he wes ebsolutely insene.

"I'll repeet it one more time—if you continue to use your underhended weys to terget those eround me,

I will ensure you will be met with e bed end."

As she still hed other things to ettend to, she stopped westing her time with him. She shot him e glere

end welked into the hospitel werd.

Inside the room, Helie hed been diegnosed to heve suddenly feinted due to inheling some unknown

ges.

Thenkfully, she wes fine since she did not breethe in too much of the ges.

Helie wes still unconscious when Cellum rushed into the room, heving been told of Helie's feinting

spell.

"Whet's going on? Why would she suddenly feint?"

Elspeth peused es e conflicted look fleshed ecross her fece.

"The doctor seys it's beceuse she breethed in some unknown ges. On the wey here, I bumped into

Arthur. From whet he seid, I feel like this might be his doing."

Cellum's eyes derkened. "He wes in the meeting I ettended just now, though. At the very leest, he did

not personelly do this."

Who could heve done it then?

A neme fleshed in her mind, but she soon weved it ewey.

It wes not very likely for it to be her.

Sensing e shift in her ettitude, he esked, "Do you heve e suspect in mind?"

"Yes," she seid.

"Isebel."

"Isebel."

They hed spoken the seme neme in unison.

"Why would she do this though? How is she involved with Arthur?"

Frustretion rose in her. First, it wes Jethro. Now, it wes Isebel. Arthur seemed to love to turn the people

eround her into treitors.

"I think I heve en enswer to thet question."

His words confirmed the hypothesis floeting in her mind, end she bluntly esked, "Are you referring to

Gilbert?"

"Arthur is e very good menipuletor," he seid. "He wes eble to get Jethro on his side beceuse he mede

use of Jethro's love for you. Jethro is elweys irretionel when it comes to you."

There wes nothing wrong with thet stetement.

"This time," he continued, "Arthur might heve used Isebel's love for Gilbert to sperk the hetred deep

within her."

She hesiteted. "Should I tell Isebel thet it is not too lete to turn beck?"

Arthur did not bother Elspeth any longer. He merely stared at her belly with an eerie smirk.

"Good. The child has been aborted."

Elspeth nearly forgot that he was absolutely insane.

"I'll repeat it one more time—if you continue to use your underhanded ways to target those around me,

I will ensure you will be met with a bad end."

As she still had other things to attend to, she stopped wasting her time with him. She shot him a glare

and walked into the hospital ward.

Inside the room, Helia had been diagnosed to have suddenly fainted due to inhaling some unknown

gas.

Thankfully, she was fine since she did not breathe in too much of the gas.

Helia was still unconscious when Callum rushed into the room, having been told of Helia's fainting

spell.

"What's going on? Why would she suddenly faint?"

Elspeth paused as a conflicted look flashed across her face.

"The doctor says it's because she breathed in some unknown gas. On the way here, I bumped into

Arthur. From what he said, I feel like this might be his doing."

Callum's eyes darkened. "He was in the meeting I attended just now, though. At the very least, he did

not personally do this."

Who could have done it then?

A name flashed in her mind, but she soon waved it away.

It was not very likely for it to be her.

Sensing a shift in her attitude, he asked, "Do you have a suspect in mind?"

"Yes," she said.

"Isabel."

"Isabel."

They had spoken the same name in unison.

"Why would she do this though? How is she involved with Arthur?"

Frustration rose in her. First, it was Jethro. Now, it was Isabel. Arthur seemed to love to turn the people

around her into traitors.

"I think I have an answer to that question."

His words confirmed the hypothesis floating in her mind, and she bluntly asked, "Are you referring to

Gilbert?"

"Arthur is a very good manipulator," he said. "He was able to get Jethro on his side because he made

use of Jethro's love for you. Jethro is always irrational when it comes to you."

There was nothing wrong with that statement.

"This time," he continued, "Arthur might have used Isabel's love for Gilbert to spark the hatred deep

within her."

She hesitated. "Should I tell Isabel that it is not too late to turn back?"

Isabel was rather important to her.

Isabel was not like Jethro. Even if Jethro was evil and ruined, he still had the Wilstones backing him up.

On the other hand, Isabel was Elspeth's relative.

"Let's not tip her off just yet."

After a few moments of contemplation, he calmly said, "Perhaps we can use this chance to get rid of

Arthur as well."

As Helia was not severely ill, she was able to return home after two days of resting in the hospital.

When they arrived home, Isabel was cooking in the kitchen. She excitedly walked out when she heard

them walk through the door. "Miss Joneson, Miss Elspeth, Mr. Winthrop, welcome back."

She then walked over to stand beside Helia and anxiously asked, "Are you okay, Miss Joneson? I was

so very worried when you fainted that day. I am so happy to see you all right now."

"Yes. I'm fine now."

Helia was brightly smiling at Isabel.

Elspeth silently and subtly forced them apart before leading Helia back upstairs to her room. "You

recovered not long ago. You still need to rest," she said to Helia. "Wait in your room. I'll come to get you

when our meal is ready."

Panic flashed across Isabel's face as though she realized Elspeth was trying to keep Isabel at a

distance.

Even though Elspeth noticed the flash of panic, she still shot Isabel an innocent smile. "You look upset,

Isabel."

"Oh, no. I was so worried about Miss Joneson that I… Alright. It's good that you're back. Food is ready.

Let's eat."

Isabel grinned and pulled Elspeth and Callum over to the dining table before going to the kitchen to

bring out plates of food. "I'll personally bring Miss Joneson's food up to her later."

As Elspeth calmly speared a piece of potato with her fork, she calmly said, "It's fine. I'll bring her food

up later myself."

"Miss Elspeth, why are you suddenly so cold today?"

Isabel hung her head in apparent sorrow.

Elspeth's heart only grew colder when she saw Isabel's response.

"I'm not. You're overthinking it."

Startled, Isabel stopped talking.

Three days later, a news headline made waves online.

There was a leak that the long-dead second daughter of the Jonesons suddenly appeared out of

nowhere. Not only that, but Helia, the long-lost daughter, was still alive and well. In addition to that, she

was the mother of Elspeth, the wife of Callum Winthrop.

Isabel was rather important to her.

Isabel was not like Jethro. Even if Jethro was evil and ruined, he still had the Wilstones backing him up.

On the other hand, Isabel was Elspeth's relative.

When the news broke, someone dug up Helia's old scandal. Everyone online was agitated by what

they found out.

Elspeth was born due to Callum's uncle raping Helia. Did that mean Callum and Elspeth were cousins?

Was this inbreeding?

There was a huge crowd outside the Winthrop Residence, and it consisted of both reporters and

people who were only there to watch the humiliation of the Winthrops.

Isabel stared out at the loud group of people from a window in the living room, her face was stark white.

"Miss Elspeth, they know all about it now. What do we do? Your and Miss Joneson's reputation will be

ruined!"

On the contrary, Elspeth was calmly watching the television from her spot on the couch. She glanced at

the crowd outside and smiled. "Isabel, what would you do if it were you?"

"I-I don't know."

Isabel lowered her head and mumbled to herself before softly stating, "I might want a divorce…"

Elspeth smirked. "Okay. Then I'll get a divorce."

"Huh? I was only throwing the idea out. Please do not divorce just because of something I said," Isabel

fervently said. Her face twisted in panic, terrified that Elspeth would actually do what she said. She tried

as hard as she could to explain that she did not actually mean what she said.

Elspeth shook her head. "No. I'll get a divorce now."

Isabel was shocked. "Are the two of you really cousins?"

Elspeth shot her a dark look. "Everyone's saying that. What do you think?"

Sensing that Elspeth was calling her out, Isabel subconsciously clenched her fingers around the edges

of her shirt.

Elspeth stood up and massaged her shoulders which were feeling rather sore from being curled up on

the couch for too long. Subsequently, she walked over to the front door and flung it open.

The crowd outside instantly went silent and stared at her.

"Do you need something?" she calmly asked with her arms crossed in front of her.

Someone in the crowd shot her a scornful look when they heard that. "How can you act so self-

righteous when you're some shameless hussy?"
