Chapter 584 Striking Resemblance to Callum

The moment Elspeth saw the child, her first reaction was to suspect that it was the child of Callum, but

upon further thought, she found this idea to be absurd. How could Callum have a child with another

woman? Also, this kid looks like he's around three years old, but Callum has only known me for four

years. During their first year of acquaintance, Callum was deeply immersed in work, so he wouldn't

have the time to have a child with another woman.

However, the striking resemblance made it difficult for her to resist thinking more about it. In the end,

she gathered the courage to approach and spoke as calmly as possible. "Excuse me…"

The child's mother seemed to recognize Elspeth, for when she looked at her, a look of terror appeared

in her eyes. "I don't know you. Don't come near me," the woman said, grabbing the boy's arm and

attempting to pull him away.

"I mean no harm. I just wanted to ask a question." Elspeth was feeling a little helpless. Yet, before she

could finish speaking, the woman quickly interrupted her.

"I already said I don't know you. Don't harass us like this," the woman insisted, but the fear in her eyes

lingered in Elspeth's mind.

Just then, the little boy looked up at Elspeth and asked in surprise, "Who is this, Mommy?"

"Nobody, just a stranger." At last, under Elspeth's blank stare, the woman grabbed the little boy's hand

and left the scene, almost like she was fleeing.

If Elspeth was only suspicious before, now she was almost certain that the child had something to do

with Callum. She definitely knows me from the way she looked at me, but she seems to be afraid of

being recognized by me. Also, her body was subtly protecting the child. Was she afraid that I would

take him away?

Elspeth was unable to figure it out, no matter how hard she thought about it. When she returned to the

ward with the ice pack, she accidentally bumped into the doorframe.

"How can you hit the doorframe when you're walking normally? You're so clumsy."

She didn't feel like bantering with Yozan at the moment, as the incident kept playing in her mind.

Sensing that she was absentminded, Yozan couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Did your soul leave

your body out there?"

"I saw someone just now."

Hearing that, he became a little curious. "Who did you see out there?"

As Elspeth swallowed a gulp of saliva, her eyes showed a complex emotion. "A little boy who has a

striking resemblance to Callum."

At once, he showed an exaggerated expression. "What? Serious? Did Callum have an affair behind

your back and has even fathered a child?"

"And that little boy looks like he's around three years old. He could even talk."

Yozan clicked his tongue twice and said, "I think it's undoubtedly his child then. After all, you had just

met him at that time, and he didn't care much about you. It's normal for him to have a little fling NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

outside."

However, it was these words that made Elspeth even more uncomfortable. What made her most

uncomfortable was that they had a child before, but because of health reasons, she was forced to have

an abortion, which was still a sore spot for her. But now, a little boy with a striking resemblance to

Callum suddenly appeared, and there might really be a connection between him and Callum.

Of course, she didn't believe that Callum would cheat on her with another woman, but the fact was right

in front of her. Unless she had evidence, she couldn't dispel her doubts.

Knowing that she was in a bad mood, Yozan stopped making jokes. "Well, now that you know about

this, why don't you go back and ask him about it? If he admits it, then do whatever you need to do. If he

doesn't, then find out the truth of the matter."

His suggestion was indeed the only solution, so she nodded, but her mind was still in chaos. "I'll head

back first then."

Yozan just waved his hand, not caring much. "Have a good talk with him after you get back. Don't

easily suspect him. Once suspicion arises, it will become a fact. This is not good for the relationship

between husband and wife."

At this moment, she looked at him, surprised that he was even more insightful than herself.

When Elspeth returned to the Winthrop Residence, Callum had not yet returned, and only Margot was

home.

As she stepped onto the porch, she saw Margot standing in front of a cabinet, seemingly lost in

thought. Carefully, she approached her and noticed that there were faint tears in the corners of

Margot's eyes.

Upon seeing her, Margot snapped out of her daze and put on a warm smile. "Welcome back, Elspeth.

Sit down and rest for a while. I'll cook for you later."

"No need to rush, Mom. What are you looking at over here?" Elspeth curiously scanned the cabinet

and found out that it was full of certificates and trophies.

"These rewards are all Arthur's." The name 'Arthur' had not been mentioned for a few months now.

Now that it was being mentioned again, it caused a touch of melancholy.

Elspeth looked at the numerous certificates and trophies and was surprised that Margot had set up a

special cabinet for him.

"Arthur has always been proud and liked to be different since he was a child. That's why, you see, while

others keep their awards in their rooms, he displayed his in the living room where they can be easily

seen." When Margot talked about this, there was a faint smile on her lips, as though she were

reminiscing about the past. "It's a pity that Arthur can never come back again."

Likewise, Elspeth felt deeply sorry for the death of Arthur, but since he was already gone, reminiscing

about the memories with him would only increase her sadness and pain. In the end, she could only

comfort Margot in a gentle voice. "Don't be sad, Mom. Maybe Arthur will be happier and have more

freedom in that place."

"Maybe." Margot wiped away her tears. "He was always so competitive for his whole life. I hope he can

be more relaxed over there, without all the deception."

Hearing that, Elspeth silently sighed in her heart. Throughout Arthur's life, no one actually wanted to

compete with him, but he was the one who always secretly competed with others, especially with

Callum. He always wanted to surpass Callum, but he never fulfilled his wish, even after his death.

"Let's stop right here. It's not good to always bring up these sad things. You went to the hospital, right?

How is your mom doing?" Margot had already heard about this from Callum and was particularly

worried about Helia's health too.

The last time she found out that Elspeth was Helia's daughter, she was shocked, but after listening

patiently to Callum's explanation, she learned that Elspeth's biological father was someone else.
