Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me novel Chapter 103

Chapter 103

Callum replied, “Since Mr. Little isn’t sincere about wanting to discuss this with us, then we don’t need to waste any more time.”

He started rising from his seat as soon as he finished speaking.

Dominic shot up at once as he was terrified that the deal would fall through just like that. He carefully tried to appease Callum. “Not at all, Mr. Winthrop. We can still talk about this. How’s this? I’ll pay 150 million. That’s double the price that Winthrop Group bought the land for. Why don’t you sell it back to me at that price?”

It pained Dominic to offer that much, but he gritted his teeth and tossed the number out anyway at the thought of how valuable the gold mine would be.

“Oh? 150 million? Is that all… That piece of land isn’t worth merely 150 million.” Elspeth didn’t seem satisfied with this number as she shook her head in response.

“150 million is already a very generous offer. What if you’re just tricking me? I would be at a great loss…”

Dominic looked troubled. His heart squeezed at the sight of Elspeth’s reaction.

“Tricking you? Mr. Little, if you think we’re trying to trick you, then we might as well forget about this deal.”

Elspeth stood up at once.

“Wait! Hang on. I’ll offer more, okay? Really now…” Dominic had to compromise and offer 225 million to repurchase the land, though it killed him to do so.

“Let’s sign the contract now and finalize the deal sooner rather than later.”

The moment Elspeth made the suggestion, Dominic immediately became cautious. “Let’s not get so impatient, Miss Lynwood. Didn’t we say we would talk about ourselves once we’re done discussing business? If you came here today because of me, then why don’t you just be mine? What’s 225 million? I can even offer 500 million or 750 million if need be.”

Elspeth’s smile stiffened. “What bold claims you make, Mr. Little! Are you sure that’s possible?”

She was disgusted by this portly, perverted man, but for the sake of tricking him into signing the contract, she had to put on a dazzling smile.

“Of course! Come and be my precious little darling, okay? Let’s have some fun…”

Dominic tried to grab Elspeth’s hand as he wanted to pull her into his arms, but Callum shoved him away.

“What are you doing, Mr. Winthrop?”

Elspeth exhaled in relief. “He’s out. Thank goodness he finally fainted. How repulsive.”

Callum nodded. “I didn’t think he’d come over all by himself without any backup just so he could get it on with you.”

A hint of jealousy shrouded his words, but Elspeth didn’t pick it out. She assumed that Dominic was just someone who lowered his guard too easily and chuckled. “Let’s carry on with your plan. First, we’ll get him delivered to the hotel room, and then…”

Elspeth was nauseated at the thought of the look in Dominic’s eyes. She never thought that he would be this deplorable.

Callum called his people over and carried out what they had planned. First, they threw Dominic into a hotel room before getting a woman to lie on top of him.

Next, they took out a camera and began snapping away.

Once everything was done, Callum and Elspeth rested for the night and waited until the next morning when Dominic woke up.

Just as they predicted, when Dominic woke up and saw the messy room, he panicked and hurriedly left.

The men stationed outside saw him exiting and began taking photos of him with his face in full display.

Dominic felt a sense of dread.

At the very next second, his phone started ringing. When he answered, he heard Elspeth’s clear voice coming through.

“Did you sleep well, Mr. Little?”

Dominic was startled for a moment before he snapped angrily, “What on earth are you trying to do? How dare you trick me? That does it. I don’t want that land anymore. Give it to whomever you want. I’m calling off all the deals between Winthrop Group and Alphascape!”

“Don’t make such hasty decisions, Mr. Little. Let’s talk about your wife.”

Dominic’s expression stiffened at the mention of his wife.

“What do you mean by that?”

“I heard that your wife has a bit of a fiery temper, Mr. Little. She’s the jealous type too, it seems. What’ll happen if she found out that you got involved with another woman, Mr. Little? Do you think she’ll demand a divorce?”

From what Elsneth found out Dominic seemed like an accomplished and well-regarded man in nublic hut he

“Why, you!”

No matter how dumb Dominic was, he could tell he had been set up.

“I know how upset you must be right now. You know, you should’ve considered the danger of retaliation when you decided to trick Winthrop Group back then. What makes you think we won’t seek vengeance?”

Elspeth chuckled.

Dominic clenched his jaw and uttered stiffly, I’ll sign the contract.”

The three of them met inside a private room in the hotel and signed the contract. When Elspeth took the contract, Dominic side-eyed her phone which was on the table and he instantly tried to snatch it.

Elspeth stretched out her finger and pushed it lightly toward Callum.

“What are you doing. Mr. Little? Do you wish to renegade on our deal?”

It all happened too fast. Dominic didn’t expect this to happen. He lowered his head awkwardly. “It’s nothing. Now that you have the contract, can you delete what you took?”

Elspeth shook her head. “There’s no rush. I’ll delete the photos and the videos once everything is in order with the land ownership returning to you.”

“I hope you’ll keep your word, Miss Lynwood!”

Dominic glared at the two of them before leaving in a huff.

“Everything’s over now, Callum.”

Elspeth waved the contract in her hand with a mischievous smile.

“Yeah, and it’s all thanks to you, or else we wouldn’t have been able to trick that old fogey and lead him around by the nose,” Callum replied with a chuckle. “But you promised me that you’ll start a relationship with me once everything is over. Are you going to keep your word?”

“Well, we have to give him credit for being gullible. Oh, by the way, when are we attending Blake’s concert? He gave me the tickets yesterday and it says the concert’s on the 29th. What’s today’s date?”

Elspeth felt a little awkward when she heard Callum’s question, so she quickly changed the subject.

“The 29th.”

“Does that mean Blake’s concert has already started?”

Callum’s eyes flashed unhappily at the sight of her being so frantic.

She didn’t agree to go out with him, and she was now anxious because of another man, so it’s not surprising that he wasn’t happy about it.

“Are you in that much of a rush to attend Blake’s concert? Do you like him that much?”

Elspeth looked confused. “Huh?”

Didn’t we agree that we’ll all attend his concert? Everyone’s going and I’ve already wasted so much time, which isn’t very good of me.

“It’s nothing. I’m heading back to the office to drop off the contract and talk to a few people. You can go ahead

first.”
