Chapter 333
Flailing her fists at him again and again, Elspeth protested, “Let go of me, Callum! I told you that I have my own
business—”
Callum ignored her vigorous protests, though. Walking straight up the stairs, he said without the slightest change in
his countenance, “I already made a deal with your boss, so you only have to serve me this month.”
“You jerk!”
Elspeth struggled to free herself from his embrace, only to be pressed firmly to his chest again by his large hand. A
faint scent greeted her; it was the scent of the perfume he often used.
“Either you be quiet and go upstairs with me, or I’ll knock you out and carry you upstairs. It’s up to you.”
Uh, the former sounds more reasonable, thought Elspeth. With that, she immediately quieted down, nestling in his
arms like a good girl.
Carrying her all the way upstairs to the third floor, Callum turned to the room on the far left, pushing the door open
to reveal a luxuriously furnished room. Then, he mercilessly flung her onto the bed, causing her to be enveloped at
once by its softness.
Elspeth knew the room only too well. It was a VIP room, available only to those spending at least 150,000. She
asked sourly, “Why are you so familiar with this place? Could you be a regular here?”
Instead of answering her questions, the man simply tossed a towel onto her. “Go wash your face. I’ve got some
clothes prepared for you in the bathroom.”
Elspeth felt somewhat irritable as she watched him standing aside, ordering her around. “Why do I have to?”
Callum replied, “Because I don’t want to see you standing in front of me in such clothing with such makeup on.” For
some reason, it irked him to see her dressed scantily with heavy makeup on.
“You’re so fussy.”

that she was still standing there in a daze without moving, he bent down at once, touching her with his right foot
while caressing her face with his fingers. “Are you gonna take a shower or not?”
Elspeth was reluctant, but she feared that he would really drag her into the bathroom and bathe her himself.
Having no alternative, she had no choice but to push him away. Then, she grabbed the towel and entered the
bathroom.
Callum stood outside listening to the sound of the shower from the bathroom. Looking at the signs of a struggle on
the bed, he went into a meditative mood.
Elspeth removed all traces of makeup from her face before coming out wrapped only in a bath towel. The instant
she came out, a dark glint flitted across Callum’s eyes.
Having just emerged from a shower, the lady looked refreshingly beautiful, and her skin was incredibly tender.
Toweling her hair, which was still dripping at the tips, she asked with a frown, “Where are the clothes you prepared
for me? I didn’t see them.”
Callum’s Adam’s apple bobbed up and down as his eyes rested upon her without him knowing. “I ordered my
assistant to pick them up, but he probably has yet to come back.”
Elspeth hadn’t a clue that she was like a little white rabbit throwing itself into the jaws of a predator right now. Her
exposed skin was fair, tender, and smooth, the temptation of which no normal man could withstand, let alone
Callum, who had repressed his feelings for a long time.
As he stepped closer and closer toward her, she finally detected a hint of danger. Something is very wrong with
Callum right now. She took a few steps backward, keeping a safe distance between them as much as possible.
“Callum, how about you get out for now? I think it’s quite inconvenient for the two of us to be alone. Men and
women aren’t supposed to get too close together, you know.”
Her suggestion was merely a joke to Callum, though. “Men and women aren’t supposed to get too close together
when they’re unrelated, but we are a couple.” He had never been as seductively charming as he was today; his
deep voice was dripping with lust.
Elspeth gulped. “We’re not a couple.”
Callum was already sick of hearing this. Stepping forward directly, he lifted her chin with his hand. “You’d never
know until you’ve tried.”
The next second, Elspeth’s eyes popped in disbelief at the gentle touch on her lips.
The man’s lips were tender, but they pressed very hard against hers as if to punish her for being disobedient. Then,
he lifted the tip of her tongue with his, nibbling at it carefully for a long time before ending the kiss by fiercely biting
her lips.
It wasn’t like they had never kissed before, but Callum had never kissed her so savagely as he did today. As a result,
Elspeth was out of breath from the kiss. As soon as he stopped, she immediately shoved him away. “What are you
doing, Callum?!”
Contrary to her, Callum was unusually calm; he looked at her swollen lips with his eyes full of amusement. “Nothing.
I was just doing what a normal couple does, no?”
Elspeth was getting mad again at first, but she was stunned the instant she met his gaze. His eyes were no longer
as emotionless as before as he stared at her. Instead, they betrayed a hint of profound tenderness, which was
familiar and yet far in the past.
Could he have…
Elspeth couldn’t describe how she felt. She only felt weak all over, as though her whole body had loosened up after
she had completed a lifelong mission at long last. She slumped onto the bed, unable to calm down for a long time.
Time seemed to stop. After what seemed like an eternity, she slowly asked, “You recalled everything, didn’t you?”

Unable to evade the question, the man had no choice but to answer honestly, “I did.”
Elspeth looked at him calmly. “Did that happen today?”
Callum’s eyes were slightly cold. “No.”
“When was it, then?” Elspeth asked. All of a sudden, she had the feeling that she had been taken for a ride. It was
Callum who had said himself that he didn’t love her, but now that he had regained his memories, he actually kept
this a secret in order to make fun of her.
“Yesterday.”
Callum fell silent; he didn’t know how to explain himself either. The instant Elspeth showed up at the door
yesterday, all his emotional memories came flooding back to him. Seeing how she tried to be all things to all
people, he was instantly overwhelmed with rage, so he kept this to himself and got in her way on purpose.
Elspeth let out a helpless laugh. “You’ve regained your memories yesterday, but only now are you willing to say
this?!” She only felt overwhelmingly aggrieved. At this very moment, all the resentment she had been suppressing
inside her flared all of a sudden.
“Sorry,” Callum said. He was willing to apologize, not only because he had recalled everything in the past but also
because he recalled how he had treated her previously. Putting himself in Elspeth’s shoes, he thought he would
probably have lost his heart completely if it were him. Because of that, he was totally unsurprised by her reaction
right now.
“What’s the use of apologizing?!” Elspeth suddenly flung the towel with which she had been toweling her hair dry at
him. She swore angrily, “So what if you’ve regained your memories now? The two of us are through!”
Callum took a step forward and clasped her tightly in his arms. “I know. It was my fault previously for forgetting
about our relationship, but that wasn’t what I intended at first.”
Tears sprang to Elspeth’s eyes. “Callum, do you know how hurtful you were previously?” she asked, pouring out her
grievances as her eyes reddened.
Callum lowered his eyes with a pained look in them. “I know. I know.”
