Chapter 193

Arthur was wearing an all-white suit that evening and looked incredibly striking. The first thing he did

was not greet Theodore with a happy birthday. Instead, he walked over to Callum and Elspeth. “Emma

told me you were being mean to her. What did she mean by that?”Emma had apparently complained to

Arthur, so he had come to question them.How hilarious! Elspeth sneezed. “I would never dare do that. I

don’t have the guts to be mean to her. She intentionally came over to disgust me. My only choice was

to fight back. Still, what a coincidence. She was so irresponsible as to give an imitation watch as a

gift.”Then, he politely smiled. “Even if her gift isn’t a genuine product, she meant well by it. You knew

she was a public figure, yet you repeatedly humiliated her in front of many people.”Do I have to accept

responsibility for everything? She looked at Arthur with disdain as she retorted, “Arthur, it is your

business if you like her and want to protect her. I do not like her, so please never mention her name to

me.”Surprised that Elspeth would say something so vile, his face went stiff. “What a crude woman,” he

spat out.Callum shot him a cold glare as he stood in front of Elspeth. “Whom are you calling crude?” he

asked, upset.Arthur did not respond to Callum’s question and merely shot Elspeth a stern look before

turning around and walking toward Theodore.Meanwhile, Theodore had been busy entertaining some

guests. When he heard that Arthur was present, emotions warred within him. Hence, he was worried

when he saw Arthur approach him.“Happy birthday, Dad,” Arthur said.Theodore flinched when he

heard the familiar term and responded, “Hey.”During their last conversation, Arthur repeatedly

addressed Theodore as ‘Mr. Winthrop’ before he left, and every time he did that, it hurt Theodore. Still,

Arthur was willingly calling him ‘dad’ now. Did that mean he wanted to repair their relationship?“I am so

sorry for last time, Dad,” Arthur stated. “I blamed all of you without knowing everything about the

situation. I even said I would cut off all contact with you guys. It’s all my fault. I hope you can forgive

me. I still want to call you Dad.”His speech was so moving that everyone present was touched.

Everyone except for Callum and Elspeth.“Say, why do you think Arthur came here to make up with your

father?” Despite the tears in Arthur’s eyes, Elspeth did not think things were what they seemed.Callum

calmly peeled open the cherry and fed it to Elspeth. “Why else? Money and power. The Winthrops

could grant him a greater social standing than anything he could achieve.”“You mean he’s up to

something again?”“I don’t know,” Callum replied with a blank look as he wiped his hands clean.

“Judging by the current situation, though, he is definitely not doing this out of the kindness of his

heart.”However, the rest of the Winthrops were not as cautious as him. Except for Edmund, who was

hesitant to believe Arthur, Blake, and Max both let down their guards and dashed over to hug

Arthur.“It’s good that you’re back.”“Even if we’re not blood-related, you will always be my brother!”They

had lived together for decades. How could their brotherhood be cut off in an instant?However, Arthur

continued to cry as cameras loudly clicked and flashed. Tomorrow’s headline was set in stone.Seeing

that made Elspeth smirk mockingly. At the end of the party, Theodore suggested dining in a private

room in the hotel’s restaurant. He wanted a reunion dinner since Arthur had returned. When the food

was all served up, someone rushed into the room.“Sorry I’m late.”Elspeth scowled. Why was Emma

invited?Theodore smiled and explained, “I invited Emma. After all, she flew so far to be here with us.

She even put so much effort into my birthday celebration. I had to invite her as well.”Then, as if afraid

everyone was still confused, Arthur added, “The watch isn’t the only gift Emma prepared. There is also

a luminous pearl of the Southern Sea. It’s merely arriving late.”When Elspeth heard that, she knew the

pearl was likely given to Emma by Arthur to save her reputation.Theodore chuckled. “It’s fine. I like it,

even if it’s not genuine. You’re so kind, Emma.”“No, Mr. Winthrop. I would never have given it to you if I

had known it was fake.” Emma ducked her head low in guilt.“Alright. Make yourself comfortable. Sit

down, and let’s eat.”After Emma sat down, Callum suddenly spoke up. “Dad, is your mind going from

old age?”Theodore glared at him. “What are you saying? I’m still sprightly. How could I be losing my

mind?”“Why else would you do something like this?” Callum rebuked. He knew Theodore had been

avoiding Elspeth for the past few days. Hence, he could not help but be suspicious of Theodore’s

sudden affectionate behavior toward Emma.“Callum!” Theodore barked. “Today is my birthday. Can

you save it?”Seeing that, Callum stood up, dragging Elspeth with him. “Enjoy your meal. We have

somewhere else to be.”For a moment, she was stunned. Then, she hurriedly pulled her hand out of his

grip. “Enough, Callum. Today is your father’s birthday. Don’t be rash.”Although he did not say anything,

the peaceful look on her face calmed him down significantly.Theodore was shocked. He had never

realized Callum had a rebellious side to him. “What is going on with you, Callum?”Callum did not

answer him, however, nor did he say another word from then on. Instead, he downed glass after glass

of wine.It had been awfully long since Arthur last saw Callum so frustrated. It cheered him so much that

there was no way to hide the wide grin on his face.Throughout the meal, Theodore kept chatting with

Emma. Compared to that treatment, Elspeth, his future daughter-in-law, seemed like an outsider

instead.“What do you do overseas, Emma?” asked Theodore.She smiled and answered, “I mainly work

in the entertainment industry. I’ve even acted in a few famous films from Hollywood. You surely have

seen some of them, Mr. Winthrop.”“Of course, I have. You are an international superstar. I have heard

of every film you acted in, especially ‘Napoleon’s Savior.’ It was an exceptionally great film.”“You’re too

kind, Mr. Winthrop. I’m only an actress. I’m not as capable as Elspeth. No wonder Callum likes her.” NôvelDrama.Org © content.

Emma might be smiling on the outside, but she was burning with hatred on the inside. While I was

abroad, I had never heard of her. What right did a moderately famous woman have to compete with me

for Callum?Theodore awkwardly smiled. Callum has dated both of them, which makes comparisons

between them awkward. “You’re both capable women… Oh, right. Emma, when will your parents be

back in the country? They went abroad to do business, right?”
