Chapter 693 Before the Fireworks Feast “Yes. After I regained consciousness, I intended to repay Slevin’s kindness, so I agreed to join his company and accept a managerial position,” Elspeth explained. When Callum heard that, he fell into deep thought. Clearly, Slevin has desired to recruit her in the past, and now that she has lost her memory, he finally took advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to accomplish his goal. Hence, I know what to do now that everything finally falls into place. As soon as she uttered those words, she noticed the complex facial expression changes on his face. Worried, she asked, “What’s the matter? Are you feeling unwell?”
“I’m fine.” Callum eventually decided to keep this matter from Elspeth, reasoning that he would present proof to her once he had gathered enough evidence. When they arrived at the company, he surprisingly did not request to go up with her but drove away as soon as she got out of the car. On the other hand, as she observed his car leaving her sight, she felt an overwhelming sense of distress. However, she didn’t expect Slevin to be waiting for her at the company’s entrance. As soon as she clocked in, she saw the man with a broad grin staring at her. “Did you sleep well last night?” It’s the same old greeting he’s always said to me. Elspeth would have probably humored him before, but after recalling what Callum had said and considering her suspicions, she found herself at a loss for words. Meanwhile, Slevin sensed something off about her, and the light in his eyes dimmed slightly. Then, he asked, “Do you hate me right now?” His voice was tinged with disappointment as he said this. Rather than being filled with hatred, I find myself at a loss as to how to make sense of
the current situation. At this thought, she replied, “No, you’re overthinking it.” After hearing this, he glanced at her with a look of affection in his eyes. “Don’t be in a hurry to leave work tonight because I’ve already arranged for someone to pick up Dami. Also, today is the fireworks festival, and they will set off fireworks near the suburbs. So, I’ll take you to the fireworks feast after work.” As Elspeth listened to Slevin’s flawless arrangements, she couldn’t bear to decline, so she had no choice but to nod. “I have a meeting to attend, so I’ll be off now.” After saying this, he smiled at her before turning around and walking away. After that, she returned to her office in a distracted state. She had just turned on the computer when she recalled Callum’s words from the previous evening.
