Ophelia sounded so truthful it seemed like Elspeth had really said that.
Hearing that, Callum nodded and walked into the hall with Ophelia.
The reporters surrounding the door were furiously clicking at their cameras that were pointed at the duo. In order to create a buzz, Ophelia even leaned close to Callum.
She suddenly tripped, and was about to plant her face straight into the floor if it wasn’t for Callum who noticed and quickly held her by the waist to stop her from falling.
The reporters only more fervently took photos at such a scene that they couldn’t possibly miss.
They had even thought of the headlines, such as ‘Is There Something Between Them? Fleming Group and Winthrop Group’s Union!’, and they were sure that this would be breaking news.
Ophelia started blushing after she was saved. “Thank you, Callum.”
However, he unhesitantly pulled back his hand and told her to go in.
He stalked in by himself then.
Her good mood instantly went down the drain, but in order to avoid any awkwardness, she bit her lip and quickly followed him.
Soon after, another commotion that was comparable to that of Callum and Ophelia’s when they entered the hall came from the entrance.
Curious, Callum quietly looked over to the two figures that walked in.
It was a jolly-looking Edmund and… Elspeth?
She had on a black mini dress that looked seductive and sexy.
Callum’s eyes lingered on her when he saw the dress. The dress that he gifted her was supposed to be a white tube dress.
He couldn’t help thinking how she must really despise him to stand him up and come in with Edmund.
As soon as Edmund’s sharp eyes noticed Callum, Edmund beamed, “Hey Callum. You are early.”
