Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Chapter 475

CHAPTER 475 DON’T BE A SIMP

To Elspeth's surprise, someone was waiting for her at her company entrance when she arrived for work the following day.

Upon moving closer, she realized it was Jasmine, whom she hadn't seen for a long while. The young woman seemed to have dropped more than just a few pounds, for her V-shaped chin appeared somewhat appalling now.

"My, Miss McGrath. It's been a while." If she couldn't evade the lady, she might as well face her. Either way, the young woman couldn't cause much ruckus, anyway.

"I want to ask you a few questions." Jasmine seemed to have toned down a lot, for she no longer bared her teeth and unsheathed her claws to demand explanations. One wouldn't be able to sense her malice, of course, that was if one overlooked her grim face.

"Ask away. It's just that I'm in a hurry to get to work, so I might not have time to say a lot." Elspeth's patience in wasting her breath and explaining to Jasmine was thin.

"Are you the bride Callum publicized on Instagram?"

Callum was the only thing on her mind when she had been grounded for the past few days. She had wanted to explain what happened to him at length, but the moment she was released and given her phone, she collapsed at once.

Callum had married another woman behind her back!

The revelation was a fatal blow to her. If she hadn't seen it for herself, she never could have imagined the man who treated her so dearly a while ago would abandon their relationship and choose to marry someone else.

"Why does it matter? Whether it'd be me or not, it will never be you again, no?" Elspeth smirked, then tapped Jasmine's chest. "Why don't you ask your heart if he ever truly loved you?"

Did Callum love me?

Jasmine never dared ruminate the question, for she had a feeling she'd really lose Callum if she figured it out.

"What does it have to do with you? I just want to know if you're the bride." Jasmine stared at Elspeth with teary, red-rimmed eyes.

"If he didn't reveal that on his Instagram, doesn't that mean he doesn't want anyone to know about it? Why ask me when you have his phone number?" Elspeth smirked exceptionally impassively. If she was talking to someone else, she'd begin to ache for the young woman. However, this was Jasmine McGrath she was talking to. No matter how pitiful she was, she brought it upon herself.

On a side note, she knew Callum had blocked all of Jasmine's contacts from his side. So, yes, she questioned Jasmine on purpose.

"He blocked all my contacts and wouldn't see me, not even when I went to his office… Just what have you done to him for him to do this to me?!"

Jasmine no longer wanted to know who the bride was, for obviously, it was this woman who was smiling arbitrarily.

Now, she was just indignant. She couldn't understand why Elspeth could win Callum's heart without having to put in any effort while she went to great lengths yet couldn't even get a sliver of pity from him.

"Have you forgotten what you have done?"

Jasmine trembled involuntarily as the humiliating experience came to her.

As the bride, she actually woke up on some random man's bed on her wedding day!

And as she looked at the man on top of her, she thought this would be her lifelong trauma. NôvelDrama.Org content.

Then again, the man seemed to have done nothing substantive and only just touched her a little. However, it was already enough to evoke disgust in Callum.

"I've been framed. I don't know what happened at all that day. Besides, Callum will certainly understand me if I explain it clearly to him."

Elspeth was surprised that Jasmine would still obsess over Callum at that point.

Now that's just being a raving lunatic.

Besides, what she said wasn't about how Jasmine was being set up but how the latter repressed her.

"Well, I suggest you go back to whatever you used to do and don't keep dreaming the pipe dream.

Learn to accept reality."

She believed her mindset would stray away if she continued to talk to this hopeless romantic. However, just as Elspeth was about to leave, Jasmine raised her voice behind her. "I saved your life. Is this how you treat your savior?!"

Oh, how Elspeth would love to talk to her about this.

At that, she leisurely walked up to Jasmine with a faint smile. "Do you really think you're the one who saved me?"

Jasmine's eyes widened with rage when she saw Elspeth twisting the truth. "If I hadn't begged my grandfather to save you, do you think you'd still be alive today?! How dare you speak so ungratefully?!"

"Yes, your grandfather saved me, but it doesn't have much to do with you, does it?"

She naturally knew Jasmine played a significant part if they were to dig deeper. However, compared to the suffering she bore, it was nothing!

"I'm my grandfather's precious granddaughter. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been able to receive the treatment at all!" Jasmine wanted nothing more than to mangle Elspeth when she looked at the latter sailing under false color.

"You're right. It's not wrong of you to say that, but who told you that I wouldn't be able to live without your grandfather?"

Jasmine was rendered at a loss for words, for it was true that they didn't know if there were other ways

to treat Elspeth when they knocked the latter out cold and brought her to Haris.

"B-But Grandpa told me no one can treat your sickness other than him."

To that, Elspeth snorted and said, "I'm Sonny Schwartz's mentee, at the very least. Do you think he'll sit back and watch me die?"

If anything, that older man wanted nothing more than for her to live so that she could inherit his mantle while he lived a carefree life.

In fact, she had received Sonny's call saying he found a way to cure her the day before they knocked her unconscious and brought her to the McGrath Residence.

Who'd have thought she'd be kidnapped the evening of the day she was about to fly off to Sonny?!

At the end of the day, she still felt rather exasperated about that.

If it weren't to learn some things from Haris to save her mother, she'd have long escaped. But sadly, she didn't manage to apply what she had learned.

A hint of grimness flashed across Elspeth's eyes before she fixed her gaze on Jasmine and taunted, "So, don't go around believing what you see is what it is. Stop constantly painting yourself as the pitiful one, or I can't promise I won't unveil your facade and show everyone how ugly you are."

This time, Jasmine was rendered utterly at a loss for words.

"Also, I've been tolerant because of Old Mr. McGrath. If you continue to offend me, I can't promise I'll

play nice."

At that, she patted Jasmine's shoulder with a smile, appearing rather piteous toward the young woman. "Don't lose yourself because of a man, and don't be a simp. It's quite sad looking."
