Chapter 214
A trace of an unidentifiable emotion churned in Callum’s eyes. “Get out.”Matthew’s newly ignited enthusiasm was extinguished at once, and he
awkwardly rubbed his nose. “I’m just kidding, and you’re the one who’s supposed to steal the bride anyway.”“Why should I?”Matthew looked at him
with a frustrated expression. “You obviously like Elspeth, so why don’t you just stay with her? Although I don’t know why you want to be with Emma,
anyone with decent eyes can see that you don’t have any feelings for her at all.”Was it that obvious? Callum touched his face, his expression
shifting.“My mom was kidnapped by Michael. He told me to break up with Elspeth and let her get engaged back home.”Matthew’s eyes widened at his
words. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier something this important?”“Telling you won’t change anything.”“Even if you didn’t tell me, you should’ve told
Elspeth. Callum, did you really think that she wouldn’t understand?”Callum’s eyes darkened. For the first time, he actually had the slightest idea of
backing out. “If I can be threatened once because of my family, then there will be many more times. A relationship like this would be nothing but
endless agony for Elspeth.”Upon thinking of Jordan, he curled his lips. “Jordan is not bad either.”Matthew held back the urge to slap him across the
face and said, “You’re Callum Winthrop, not just anyone else. If you can’t even get the girl you like, why are you still alive? Might as well just give up
on life.”Callum looked at him, suddenly at a loss for words.“So, you have to make everything clear. You have no time for regrets. Elspeth isn’t like
other girls. She definitely can solve any problems with you.”Callum’s heart drummed at his words. He was suddenly at a loss. Breaking up with
Elspeth, was that what he really wanted?“Besides, you don’t even know what kind of person Jordan is. If Elspeth gets picked on in the future, you...”“I
got it.”Matthew was taken aback. “What did you get?”“Let’s steal the bride.”Immediately, Matthew choked on his own saliva. “Do you understand what
you’re saying? I was merely making a joke. I wasn’t telling you to actually do it.”However, Callum only looked at him indifferently. “Okay, you can go
back if you have no more business here.”Upon seeing his sudden change in mood, Matthew felt confused. However, Callum had already chased him
out, so he had no choice but to keep his mouth shut and leave.The preparation work for Elspeth’s engagement party was complete, and the
ceremony would be held the next day. That night, Elspeth was taking a walk in the garden outside the Joneson Residence for some fresh air while
calling Yelena to report on the schedule.Just as she was about to return to bed, she suddenly saw a figure tumbling in from outside the fence.
Alarmed, she quietly hid behind the rockery and watched the figure when she inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity.Just then, she saw the man’s
watch reflecting a light blue glow in the dim light and instantly knew who it was. Instead of shouting for help, she sneaked up to his side.Elspeth
immediately stepped forward and pressed a hand over the person’s mouth with a sneer. “Callum, what are you doing here?”Although he had been
easily discovered by Elspeth, Callum didn’t say anything. Instead, he grabbed her wrist and brought her into his arms. As he was extremely strong,
she couldn’t even move a muscle, but she could feel that he was holding her very tightly as if he wanted to take her into his own body. “Don’t get
engaged.”Elspeth took a deep breath. “Why?”“Because I love you.”“Your words seem really flimsy right now, Callum. I really don’t know how to keep
talking to you.”Callum’s eyes were filled with affection and pain as he said, “There’s a reason why I treated you like that. I...”“Because Mrs. Winthrop
was kidnapped, so you had to keep quiet and force me to break up. Later, you really ended up doing it, right?”Elspeth’s words greatly astonished him.
“How did you know that?”“Of course, I do. Grandfather told me everything the first day I came back.” Elspeth laughed lightly before she sighed. “But
honestly, I didn’t think you would keep everything to yourself. Grandfather was right. You don’t even dare to stay with me, so who are you to make me
your own?”“I just don’t want you to keep living this volatile life with me.” A crack appeared on Callum’s normally calm expression. “If Old Mr. Joneson
can stand in the way of this once, there will be a next time, and countless times more. I can’t predict what else he will use to threaten me in the future.

Instead of having to face that, I’d rather let you be happy.”Elspeth smiled bitterly. “Happy? You think being with Jordan is happy? Callum, I’ve been
through so much with you, and I haven’t even uttered a single complaint. Yet, you insisted on pushing me away.”“Callum, I do not wish to be with you
anymore.”Elspeth’s words struck hard at Callum’s heart, and his face turned pale all of a sudden.“I’m sorry. I’m the coward,” he apologized, slowly
letting go of her hand.Elspeth watched him behaving like this, feeling inexplicably frustrated. Before he arrived, she’d sworn to herself that she would
never forgive him. However, when he actually arrived, there was an indescribable bitterness in her heart. Frankly, the moment she saw such a
prideful man like him wretchedly scaling the wall to come in, her heart instantly softened.“Callum.”That single word was like a gentle tap on Callum’s
heart.“What?”“The first time I found out that Mrs. Winthrop was kidnapped, I went looking around and found out where she was. I have already taken
care of her issue, and I can take her away anytime. Now, I only have one thing to say to you.”Callum’s breaths turned heavy. “Tell me.”“I’ll give you a
chance to take me away.”Elspeth gazed into his eyes that were glowing brightly under the moonlight. Suddenly, Callum smiled.“Okay, I will.”The next
day was the engagement party, and Elspeth escaped in the middle of the night. Her friendly relationship with Michael in the past few days made him
think that she was going to stay obediently in the Joneson Residence and get married, so he lowered his guard. As a result, this turned out to be the
perfect time for the two to escape.With Elspeth’s escape, the engagement party could not be held. Michael was furious, and the Joneson Family
became the joke of Blaydal and even all of high society. After learning the news of Elspeth’s escape, the male lead of the engagement party, Jordan,
turned pale.Seeing that Jordan seemed to be in a bad mood, Michael patted him on the shoulder as if to comfort him. “Listen, Jordan, you have
nothing to worry about. I promise to make it up to you.”Jordan’s lips curled into an eerie smile. “Don’t worry, I’ll personally bring Elspeth back.”
