Chapter 464 Male Inheritance
Margot's words made Elspeth feel incredibly warm in her heart, and she felt more attached to Margot. Suddenly,
Margot seemed to remember something and slapped her leg. "Wait for me a moment. I'll go get something."
She hurriedly went upstairs. Elspeth looked at Callum, her face full of confusion. "What does she mean?"
Callum naturally guessed Margot's intentions and just smiled without saying anything.
"By the way, have you brought Jasmine home before?"
Callum raised his brows and stared into her eyes. "No."
"But you told me before that you would bring her home."
"Why are you still hung up about that? I was just lying to you at the time, wasn't I?"
Listening to her sour words, Callum figured she was getting jealous.
"I'm not hung up about it; I'm just curious." Elspeth, feeling exposed, couldn't help but be indignant and stomped on
his foot hard. When she looked up, Margot had just come back with a box and saw her angrily stomping on Callum's
foot. She was so embarrassed she hoped the ground would open up and swallow her.
"I know what you're doing. Lover's quarrel, right? It's okay. If he did something wrong and you want to hit him, just
hit him. If you want to scold him, just scold him." Margot laughed even more heartily. After she finished speaking,
she sat down on the sofa and placed the box on the table. Then, she opened it. There was actually an agate ring
inside.
"There are many things that have been passed down in the Winthrop Family, but most of them are jade. I
remember that you are allergic to jade, so I looked around and found something like this to pass on to you."
Elspeth looked at the agate ring and knew that it was very old. "This is too precious; I can't accept it."
"Why not? This is for the daughter-in-law of the Winthrop Family, and the other boys who are going to marry will
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthave them too."
Elspeth knew that declining was pointless, so she accepted it obediently.
"Good girl, you should keep this safe. I'm going to cook for you now that you've come to our house today. We have
to prepare a big feast to welcome you." Margot gave Callum a sharp look. "Take care of my daughter-in-law and
serve her well. Otherwise, you'll get it from me."
Callum suddenly felt like his position in the family had plummeted. However, if it was about taking care of Elspeth, it
was fine. After Margot left, Elspeth looked at Callum, who was peeling an orange, and asked, "Does Mrs. Winthrop
also know about your previous marriage?"
Naturally, she wasn't just asking about the marriage.
"Of course, I've already told my mom about all of my plans, and when she heard that everything was arranged for
you, she was very supportive of my decision."
Elspeth's heart softened instantly. "Mrs. Winthrop is so considerate of me. I've decided to stand with her and bully
you together with her in the future."
Callum's movements paused. "There's no need to be so frank."
Elspeth carefully put away the agate ring. She didn't dare to wear it for it was too valuable, so it was better to keep
it safe.
Seeing her cautious movements, Callum curved his lips. "It does need to be kept safe. We can pass it down to our
daughter in the future."
"I don't want to have a daughter with you. I prefer boys," Elspeth rebutted.
"We can't have a son." The thought of other boys being intimate with her in the future made him furious. Not even
their son was allowed.
So, Callum whispered to persuade her, "Boys are not good. They will be too energetic and affect your mood and
appetite. And if they cause trouble, you'll have to clean up after them. Plus, during adolescence, they may be
recklessly hitting other girls up."
Elspeth gave him a sideways glance. "How do you know? Were you like this when you were younger?"
Callum rolled his eyes helplessly. "Don't you know what I was like as a child?"
It was true. Callum looked like he had been cold and distant since he was young, and still did to this day.
"But a boy would be good, as a son would be close to his mother."
In fact, she liked both boys and girls, but she just wanted to say it to annoy him.
"No!" Callum's tone suddenly rose.
"Look at you, so petty…" Elspeth muttered softly, but quickly changed her tone when she saw his murderous gaze.
"Okay, okay, okay, a girl it is… Wait, why should I have a child with you?" She realized as soon as she said that,
Callum seemed a bit angry.
His face suddenly turned cold. "Then who do you want to have a child with?"
Elspeth lowered her head, looking conflicted. "Although I'm not afraid of pain, I've heard that giving birth is
particularly painful."
Callum's expression softened a bit when he heard this. "It's okay. If you really don't want to have children, we
won't."
Elspeth didn't expect him to concede to this extent for her. Looking at his caring and doting face, she suddenly felt
that getting married early might not be such a bad thing after all.
"Okay, if you're still unsure, let's not think about this issue for now." Callum took her hand and stood up. "Let me
take you to your room."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmElspeth was a little surprised. She had stayed at Winthrop Residence before, and naturally thought she would be
staying in her previous room. But it had been a while, and she didn't know what the room was like now.
Callum took her directly to a large bedroom on the second floor. "The previous room was too small. I talked to my
mom and we decided to give you this bigger bedroom."
Elspeth was taken aback. "But I remember there are only six large bedrooms, and each member of the Winthrop
Family has one…"
"Blake is never home, so he can stay in another room when he comes back."
"Why not Arthur's room? I remember he's not living at Winthrop Residence anymore, right?"
"It's bad luck."
Callum had his own considerations. Arthur had ulterior motives for her, and Callum didn't want her to stay in his
room.
"Okay, but what if Blake gets angry?"
Callum's expression was flat. "Then he can go somewhere else."
Elspeth broke out in a cold sweat. If Blake came back and found his room occupied by someone else, he would
probably be furious. Thinking of Blake's angry inquiries about his room, she couldn't help but laugh. Just as she
laughed, someone knocked her head lightly.
"Don't think about other men." Callum's touch was light, but his gaze was threatening.
Elspeth nodded and pushed open the door. She remembered having seen Blake's room before, with blue being his
favorite color and the room being a mix of blues and greens. But now, the decor in the room had undergone a
drastic change. At a glance, it looked like a girl's room, with everything a girl could possibly need, and even a huge
stuffed animal in the corner. It was so girlish.
"Did you prepare all of this?" Elspeth approached and opened the closet, finding only her favorite brands and styles
inside. He's too thoughtful!
