Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me Chapter 328
Chapter 328
Callum was thinking the situation over with an unhappy expression. “I hope your CEO keeps his word.”The manager smiled and extended a polished hand. “Don’t worry. I will not string you along. By the way, my name is Jay Weasley. You can call me Junior too.”Junior… Callum’s assistant rolled his eyes and almost gagged. This guy looks at least twice the age of Mr. Winthrop! Junior? Pfft! He’s more like a Senior!Callum said coolly, “Mr. Weasley, what’s the plan of your CEO?”“My CEO wants me to bring you around. Of course, I will spend all my time with you.” Jay’s hand hung in the air. When he noticed that Callum didn’t want to shake hands, he withdrew his hand without a hint of embarrassment. “You probably didn’t get to travel abroad a lot. There are lots of fun places around. I’ll quickly show you around.”Callum’s assistant hissed with simmering anger, “Our CEO’s time is precious. He can’t be going on a tour with you.”“This is a business discussion between the two companies. I believe we don’t need an assistant to school me over and over,” Jay retorted with a smile on his face. Even though he wasn’t furious, he showed that he was highly aware of the situation but chose to put on a professional front through a strong statement.Callum realized that he had no idea what Bluestone Corp’s CEO was getting at. He kept his dissatisfaction to himself and said coldly, “Well, if your CEO said so, I’d love to be brought around.”“Mr. Winthrop, you’re easygoing indeed. Don’t fret. I promise that you’d meet our CEO in three days.”Callum nodded, but this time, his eyes betrayed a hint of exhaustion, which did not escape the assistant’s keen gaze. “Mr. Winthrop, do you want to take a rest if you’re tired?”Jay gasped in astonishment, “Oh, Mr. Winthrop, looks like you didn’t get enough rest. You do seem exhausted. How about this? I’ll bring you to this great place.”Callum looked at him icily. “Where to?”Jay took a sip of tea and smiled wickedly. “It’s the place of every man’s dream.”Not once did he forget the orders from his CEO to offend Callum Winthrop from the Winthrop Group. He also heard that Callum was distant and unfriendly. He’d love a good challenge of humiliating the difficult and haughty CEO of Winthrop Group.Although he was reserved in his choice of words, his attitude said it all. The assistant got the hint and blushed. “What are you talking about? What do you take our CEO for? He never visits those entertainment places!”Annoyed, Jay glared at him and cut him off, “What do you know? If you don’tContent is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
want to go with us, just stay at the hotel.”The assistant turned to Callum. “Mr. Winthrop, you can’t visit those places! Take a good look at this man in front of us. If I were you, I’d rather not work with them! Let’s head back.”The assistant was impatient and restless at his young age. However, Callum did not back off. At the beginning of the meeting, he suspected that Bluestone Corp’s CEO wanted to lure him to Eden and make a fool of him. At this point, he was very sure that fooling him was the plan all around.They wanted to humiliate him, anger him, and accuse him of not being sporty enough. If he left the scene in a fit of anger, he’d only fall into their trap. He would love to see what tricks they had up their sleeves. “I’ll go.”The assistant panicked. “Mr. Winthrop!”“Ah, Mr. Winthrop, you’re exactly like how people described you—a remarkable man!” Jay praised.When dusk arrived, the veil of night slowly descended on the city. Jay was driving, and Callum was resting in the back seat. Sitting beside Callum was the assistant, who grumbled, “I wonder what’s in the mind of the Bluestone CEO. He’s being all mysterious, and now, he got us a sleazy man to bring you around!”Jay heard himself being described as ‘sleazy,’ but he did not protest and merely flashed a smile.It took two hours to get from their hotel to the red light district. When they arrived, the streets were brightly lit in the deep of the night.Lights shone and glasses clinked around them. The entertainment outlets oozed with indulgence and bustled with patrons. Jay parked his car and brought Callum deeper into the district.“You might not know this, but all of us love visiting this place when we’re abroad. This is a heaven for men.” The anticipation on Jay’s face seemed genuine.The deeper they ventured into the district, the greater the enthusiasm showed by the ladies. A few of them threw themselves at the three men and caressed their chests boldly.The young assistant was in the prime of manhood after all. He had never experienced such a situation before and stumbled backward frantically, at the same time shielding Callum from the advances of the women.“This must be the famous red light district in Eden.” Callum finally broke his silence on the trip.“Indeed, Mr. Winthrop. You’re sharp. This is the famous red light district. The women here have great bodies. Most are bombshells. The last time I visited here, I wished I could stay for three nights.”The assistant shot him a loathsome look. “Alright, that’s enough. Mr. Winthrop is unlike you. He doesn’t need to hear your lewd gushing.”“How’s that lewd? Isn’t he a man as well? Does he not have carnal desires?” While Jay was speaking, Callum was thinking about the same topic.Jay noticed that
Callum was deep in thought, and he believed that something must be brewing. “Mr. Winthrop, you must have recalled the pleasures. You know, the women here are great at pleasing men. I guarantee you’ll be satisfied.”Callum said icily, “I don’t need that.”Jay thought dismissively, Hah, look at him, lying to himself. I bet he’ll go crazier than me later in the night. Despite secretly looking down on Callum, he still wore a smile on his face. “Sure. Mr. Winthrop, don’t worry. There are all sorts of women around. You just need to pick one that suits your taste.”One that suits my taste… Callum frowned deeply and felt distressed. No matter how hard he racked his brains, there was only one woman in his mind. She had silky black hair and red lips. He pictured her smiling like a fox in a tantalizing black evening gown.Gosh, why am I thinking of Elspeth?Her name was something that had always bothered him.He shook his head to clear the thoughts of Elspeth, but her figure further crystallized in his head. Not only that, when he looked at the women on the two sides of the streets, one of their images seemed to overlap with Elspeth’s figure in his mind.The familiar woman in his memory was smiling at men in skimpy clothes and sexy makeup, just like the other women on the streets.Wait. Is that… Elspeth?
