Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me novel Chapter 174

After four hours had passed, Elspeth still hadn’t received the ginkgo. She didn’t know what to do. In the end, she called and found out that Sonny had sent the ginkgo to the Winthrop Residence in Damoria.

She then made a call to Winthrop Residence, but no one answered. She was met with the dial tone instead.

The moment she hung up the phone, an unknown number called her. When she picked up, the voice on the other end of the phone shocked her.

“Elspeth, what are you looking for? Is it the ginkgo?”

Arthur’s prideful voice was heard over the phone.

As soon as she heard his voice, the bad premonition she had was immediately confirmed. She immediately understood that the ginkgo was now in his hands.

She felt her heart drop.

“I heard Callum is seriously injured. You’re not planning to give this ginkgo to him, are you?”

Elspeth’s voice was cold when she answered, “You were behind this, weren’t you?”

Arthur seemed like he was in a good mood as he said, “Of course not. But I’ve heard about what’s going on.”

“Arthur, give it back to me.”

He was far from an angel, nor was he easygoing. He was still furious after getting humiliated the last time they met. “Give it back? Why should I give you something that I’ve found? Don’t you think it’s a coincidence that I saw this parcel right when I decided to go back to the Winthrop Residence? If I didn’t open it out of curiosity, I wouldn’t have known that this was the life-saving ginkgo.”

“What exactly do you want?!”

Callum didn’t have time to spare, so Elspeth couldn’t just let Arthur have the ginkgo.

Arthur was pleased that he managed to provoke her and threw his final blow. “If you want it back, you’ll have to agree to my conditions.”

Although Elspeth was furious, she had no choice but to calm herself down and asked, “Tell me, then! What do you want?!”

“There’s no fun if I just tell you outright. How about you take a guess?”

Elspeth could hear the smile in his voice, and she knew what he wanted without a second thought.

She asked tentatively, “The Winthrop Group’s shares?”

“Oh!” The corners of Arthur’s lips curled up. “Elspeth, you know me so well. Why don’t you break up with Callum and come with me? Not only will the ginkgo be yours, but the Winthrop Group’s shares will also be yours.”

Elspeth felt disgusted and interjected instantly, “Arthur, are there any other conditions?”

Her words surprised him. “Of course not. I only want the shares and you. I don’t want anything else.”

“Arthur, I am your elder brother’s girlfriend.”

He pursed his lips for a moment before a devilish smile formed on his face. “I know, but isn’t that more interesting?”

“Shameless.”

“Go on.”

Elspeth knew she wasn’t in a good position to negotiate. In the end, she didn’t bother arguing further and immediately told him to meet up.

“Come to Blaydal. Bring the ginkgo, and let’s talk.”

She couldn’t give up the Winthrop Group to him, but she knew she couldn’t tell him about that. Otherwise, it would infuriate him.

Arthur didn’t trust her, fearing that she might lie to him. “Don’t try and trick me into going to Blaydal before ambushing me there. I’m telling you. If you try to pull something off, I can destroy you any time.”

Elspeth didn’t bother to argue with this lunatic and said softly, “Don’t worry. I won’t lie to you. Don’t we have to meet up to sign the transfer contract?”
