At this point, Elspeth was shocked.
“You’ve already told everyone about this?” Callum nodded.
“Yes, everyone in the Winthrop Family knows you’re my wife, Elspeth, so there’s no room for refusal.Starting tonight, you’ll be living with me.
“Do I share a bed with you?”
Callum chuckled with a meaningful look on his face.
“If you’re willing, then why not?”
“Can I refuse? I don’t want to go to the Winthrop Residence.”1
Elspeth thought for a moment and felt that this situation was too surreal and not quite appropriate.
“Of course not.As I said, you must live with me.However…If you don’t want to move there, there is another way.”
Callum’s words instantly piqued her interest.
“What is it?”
“I’ll move in with you.”
Elspeth was speechless.She’d rather move to Winthrop Residence.If they were to live together now at her place, it wouldn’t be quite right.
Since they both agreed on a solution, eventually, Elspeth decided to move to Winthrop Residence.Callum didn’t want to wait even a minute longer.
After he finished the hospital discharge procedures, he took Elspeth straight to Winthrop Residence.Standing at the entrance, Elspeth looked at Callum’s face, smiling awkwardly.
“I haven’t packed my things yet.” Callum raised his eyebrows, a hint of hidden meaning in his usually cold gaze.
“Go inside and take a look”
Elspeth snapped back to reality, noticing Callum’s suggestive tone and wondering what he meant.Subsequently, they entered together.It wasn’t dinner time yet, so most of the Winthrop family members hadn’t come back yet.
Only Margot sat on the sofa, watching TV dramas and doing her skincare routine.1
When she saw Elspeth, her surprise was almost visible even through her facial mask.
“Elspeth, why are you here?” Elspeth smiled faintly, suppressing her inner nervousness.
“I came here today to-“
Callum intervened at the right moment.
“I asked Elspeth to move in with us.”
Margot’s eyes lit up with surprise.
“Really? Is she really willing to move in with us? Don’t force her.”
“How could I force her? I’ve already asked, and she’s willing,” Callum replied.
Margot’s smile couldn’t be contained.
“That’s great.I’ve been wanting you to move in with us for a long time, Elspeth! I’ll finally have a companion”
Elspeth’s mind was in a whirl.
Looking at Margot’s delighted expression, she felt that things weren’t that simple.
“Oh, right, I forgot.You two are married now, so living together is normal.”
Margot held Elspeth’s hand and patted it.
“If Callum dares to bully you, I promise I won’t spare him.Don’t be afraid, I’m your forever support.”
Callum’s gaze deepened at these words.
“How could I bully her?”1
“You little brat.I’m chatting with my daughter-in-law here.Don’t bother us.”
Margot was so eager to talk to Elspeth as if she wanted to adopt her as her daughter.Elspeth couldn’t help but laugh.
“Mrs.Winthrop, don’t tease Callum anymore.What if he really runs away from home?’ “If he does, then let him go.Anyway, I already have a beautiful daughter-in-law.That’s all that matters.You know that we don’t have any daughters in the Winthrop Family.I’ve wanted a daughter for a long time…”
Margot’s words made Elspeth feel incredibly warm in her heart, and she felt more attached to Margot.
Suddenly, Margot seemed to remember something and slapped her leg.
“Wait for me a moment.I’ll go get something.”
She hurriedly went upstairs.
Elspeth looked at Callum, her face full of confusion.
“What does she mean?”
Callum naturally guessed Margot’s intentions and just smiled without saying anything.
“By the way, have you brought Jasmine home before?”
Callum raised his brows and stared into her eyes.
“No.”
“But you told me before that you would bring her home’ “Why are you still hung up about that? J was just lying to you at the time, wasn’t I?”Listening to her sour words, Callum figured she was getting jealous.
“I’m not hung up about it; I’m just curious.”
Elspeth, feeling exposed, couldn’t help but be indignant and stomped on his foot hard.
When she looked up, Marent had inst came hack with a hoy and saw her angrily stomping on Callum’s foot.She was so embarrassed she hoped the ground would open up and swallow her.
“I know what you’re doing.Lover’s quarrel, right? It’s okay.If he did something wrong and you want to hit him, just hit him.If you want to scold him, just scold him.”
Margot laughed even more heartily.
After she finished speaking, she sat down on the sofa and placed the box on the table.
Then, she opened it.
There was actually an agate ring inside.
“There are many things that have been passed down in the Winthrop Family, but most of them are jade.I remember that you are allergic to jade, so I looked around and found something like this to pass on to you.”
Elspeth looked at the agate ring and knew that it was very old.
“This is too precious; I can’t accept it.”
“Why not? This is for the daughter-in-law of the Winthrop Family, and the other boys who are going to marry will have them too.”
Elspeth knew that declining was pointless, so she accepted it obediently.
“Good girl, you should keep this safe.I’m going to cook for you now that you’ve come to our house today.We have to prepare a big feast to welcome you”
Margot gave Callum a sharp look.
“Take care of my daughter-in-law and serve her well.Otherwise, you’ll get it from me”
