With that, Elspeth reached for her clothes only to discover that they were gone.
Someone is f*cking with me, aren’t they?
She calmed her mind at once. There were no other clothes available in the dressing room other than the shredded uniform in her hands.
Time ticked away, and her jewels would be on display if Callum hadn’t come to get her.
Meanwhile, outside, a little-known actress suddenly shouted,
“My bracelet is missing!”
Losing an item wasn’t the end of the world, and the director would be willing to get a replacement to rest the case if the lost item wasn’t too valuable or expensive.
“It was a gift from my maternal grandmother, though. It means a lot to me. I have to find the bracelet!”
The director frowned in response.
“We’re going to shoot the scene soon. It can wait until after filming.”
“But I really need to find it. It’s something my grandmother left me. Please, I beg you-help me find it!”
bawled the actress, on the verge of passing out.
“Alright, alright, cut it out. I’ll help you find it,”
the director agreed helplessly, made troubled by her crying.
With that, the others around began helping her, and the actress turned her gaze to the dressing room when the bracelet was still nowhere to be found after they had searched high and low.
“The bracelet might be in there. I’m going to take a look inside!”
With that, she reached for the door.
As everyone was searching for the missing bracelet, they were now gathered by the door and would see everything going on in the dressing room once the door opened.
“No, wait! Elspeth is still in there!”
shouted Yelena, recalling that Elspeth was changing inside.
However, it was too late. The actress had twisted the doorknob and opened the door.
What was happening in the dressing room shocked everyone at once.
Callum was holding Elspeth in his arms with his back facing everyone while the young woman only revealed her side profile and messy hair.
That wasn’t all. Both of their lips were abnormally red, and what went down in there until a second ago quickly became evident to everyone.
“Look. They’re all looking at us,”
said Elspeth unabashedly as she rubbed Callum’s earlobe lazily.
“Do all of you have nothing better to do?!”
Callum lifted his eyes and swept his contemptuous gaze across the floor. The frostiness he exuded sent chills down everyone’s spines.
Meanwhile, Elspeth shot Yelena a glance, which the latter understood at once. At that, she shoved the actress who had opened the door and slammed it shut.
“What are you guys looking at? Have you guys no shame watching a couple flirt?!”
Everyone came to themselves at once; even the actress who had lost her bracelet was flushing from embarrassment.
That said, a hint of disappointment still flashed across her eyes. How can this be?! When did Callum go inside?
At that, she looked toward the dispersing group of people. As furious as she was feeling right then, she had no choice but to put it to rest for the time being.
Meanwhile, Elspeth stood in the tiny, dim dressing room with barely any clothes on. Though she couldn’t see very well in there, a searing hot sensation enveloped her as her skin pressed on Callum’s.
“How did you know I was in trouble?”
She was very shocked, surprised that he knew she was stuck in there even when she hadn’t given him a call.
“You never take this long.”
“Well, you know me well.”
She smiled.
“Put on some clothes first.”
Callum turned around right after handing her a second set of clothes.
“I’ll stand guard.”
“Okay, you can turn around now.”
Elspeth poked Callum’s back after putting the clothes on speedily, and the man smiled as he looked at the innocent, adorable young woman in a school uniform.
“If only you were the one whom I met in college.”
“Now’s not too late either,”
said Elspeth with a hint of seduction as she wrapped her arms around his neck, allowing Callum to give her a peck on the lips.
“I know. I’m already lucky enough to meet you.”
“We’d better get out then, or the guys outside will let their imaginations run wild.”
Elspeth giggled.
“Also, I plan on finding out who was f*cking with me!”
If the person outside decided to come up with other ideas, her reputation would be over for good.
“Very well,”
Callum smirked
Very quickly, the couple exited the dressing room, and the actress with the missing bracelet heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Elspeth behaving as though nothing had happened. Looks like Lynwood isn’t planning on pursuing the matter.
Lo and behold, Elspeth scanned the room and monotoned,
“Who was it that was desperately looking for their bracelet just now?”
In an instant, the actress froze as chills ran down her spine.
No one said a word, and the atmosphere quickly turned awkward.
At that, Elspeth ambled to the actress’ side and smiled as she looked at the latter’s fair, delicate face.
“Why don’t you tell us what bracelet it is?”
The actress’ countenance turned awful at once.
“It was an accident, Miss Lynwood. The bracelet is something my maternal grandmother left me. I-I was just so desperate to retrieve it. I didn’t mean to do that to you.”
With the way she put it, it became as though Elspeth was unforgiving.
At that, the latter smirked.
“It looks like I’ve misread the situation, then. What’s your name?”
