Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Chapter 583

CHAPTER 583 HE CARES ABOUT YOU

Before they could say much else, Welson's furious snarling rang out behind them.

"What did you do, you b*stard?!"

Elspeth turned around, and before she could even register what was happening, a hand slammed across Yozan's face which swelled up right away.

"If I hadn't interrogated the McGraths, I wouldn't have found out that my son had the audacity to put someone else in harm's way!"

Yozan wiped the streak of blood from the corner of his lips and smirked. "You're only angry because the person who was put in harm's way was the woman you love."

During his time abroad, he'd gotten into a fight and ended up beating that person half to death. He had to give several hundred thousand in compensation, and even then, Welson didn't care at all.

He's only reacting this way now because I hurt the person he cares the most about.

"Darn it! Do you not have a conscience?!"

Welson raised his arm once more but Elspeth swiftly stopped him. "It's true that Yozan went too far today, but he has already admitted his mistake and did his best to make up for it in time."

Yozan sighed. "You're too kindhearted. If it were me, I would rip this b*stard to shreds!"

Elspeth chuckled awkwardly. "You did hit him earlier. It counts as teaching him a lesson. He's still injured right now and his body's weak, so let's not resort to any more violence."

Upon hearing that Yozan was injured, Welson finally took a good look at his son.

True enough, his head was bandaged. It was clear that he was sporting an injury on the back of his head. Alas, Welson had been too enraged to notice it sooner.

"It's just a scratch. No big deal."

Yozan snorted and said, "I know this bit of injury means nothing to you."

The room fell silent once again.

Welson cleared his throat before curtly announcing, "Since you're fine, I'll get going. I still have work matters to attend to." He took one last look at Yozan and informed, "I've made sure those people won't be ratting you out, so you can just focus on your recovery."

With that said, he turned and left.

Once Welson was gone, Elspeth sighed. "Mr. Harley does care about you, you know. Otherwise, he wouldn't have made sure they stayed quiet to stop them from dragging you down with them."

What the McGraths had done were criminal offenses, and if Yozan got dragged down with them, he would have to serve a prison sentence too.

"I know." Yozan didn't seem unhappy. "It's only because he still needs me to be his heir. If something happens to me, all of his years of hard work would go down the drain."

Elspeth chuckled in disbelief. "Now that I'm in the picture, do you think you can still be his successor?"

Yozan was startled. "Are you interested in it?"

In reality, Yozan wasn't all that interested in the Harley Family's fortune, but throughout all these years, he'd been groomed as the heir. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

If he had to give it over to someone else… If it's Elspeth… I guess it's fine by me.

"I don't, but what I meant is, you keep saying that Mr. Harley likes me, right? If I return to the family, do you think he'll make me his heir instead?"

"So be it."

Yozan truly didn't care.

Elspeth was exasperated. "Why do I have such a stubborn younger brother? You're so… What I meant is that Mr. Harley has someone else to choose as his heir, so he doesn't have to worry about his hard work going to waste. He chose to protect you because he truly cares about you, his son."

Yozan was stunned into silence.

"Also, don't hold it against him. If it were me, I would've slapped you for what you did too."

Elspeth rolled her eyes. Giving him nothing more than a slap would be going easy on him.

"I'm surprised you're aware of the fact that you harmed the person he loves. Why do I recall someone recording a naked video of the person who pushed his girlfriend into the lake?"

You're also the kind of person who takes an eye for an eye, so why are you getting upset now?

What a fool.

Yozan felt that Elspeth had a point.

Meanwhile, now that Cecelia had been brought up, Elspeth couldn't resist asking, "By the way, have you and Cecelia made up yet?"

Yozan rubbed his temples with a sense of helplessness. "You're really taking to the role of an older sister, huh?"

"Of course. You're my younger brother, aren't you?" Elspeth cocked her eyebrows in curiosity. "So? How are things going between you two? Is she still choosing to ignore you?"

A flash of fury flickered in Yozan's eyes. "That's right. She's still hung up on someone else, so why would she agree to be with me?"

He didn't know how long she would continue to pine for Hank, but the fact that she seemed hellbent on being loyal to her feelings for him made him seethe with rage.

"Are you talking about Hank?"

Yozan was surprised to hear the name pop out of Elspeth's mouth so easily. "How did you know it's him? Did Cecelia tell you?"

"I deduced it myself."

"Exactly. She thinks she keeps her feelings so well-hidden, but in reality, everyone else apart from her knows how obvious her feelings for Hank are."

Elspeth shook her head. "Not everyone. Yelena doesn't know about it."

Everyone could tell just how naive and simple-minded Yelena was.

Yozan had nothing to say to that.

He looked up at Elspeth and asked, "Can you get me an ice pack?"

Elspeth held her right hand out. "If you're going to order me around, you're going to have to pay me."

Yozan was dumbstruck. "I'm just asking you to help me get an ice pack. If you're not going to do it, then fine. I can ask a nurse for help instead."

Why's she so obsessed with money?

She's not at all like me.

Elspeth clasped her hands together with a mischievous smile. "Of course. I care a lot about these

things. That's why you should hurry up and recover so that you can go back to handling the family business. Otherwise, I'd be snatching the position away from you."

Yozan kept his snarky comments to himself.

"In the first place, I don't care about that."

"Well, I care, but I don't want to handle the business." Elspeth stretched lazily. "Oh, alright. I won't tease you anymore. I'll go and get the ice pack."

She walked out of the room.

As she turned around the corner, she was surprised to see a young boy who looked extremely familiar.

As soon as she spotted him, her eyes widened in shock.

This little boy looks exactly like Callum!

Can two people look so similar?

Out of curiosity, she walked over to the boy, but as soon as she got near, the boy's mother came over.

"What are you doing here, darling? Mommy's been looking for you everywhere! Come on. Let's go."
