Chapter 85
Only when the person’s face was almost an inch close to Elspeth’s face did she see who he was. At that
moment, memories flashed across her mind, and she widened her eyes when she thought of a person.
Isn’t he the man who is always by Callum’s side?
Elspeth remembered that this man was always there, whether it was her first encounter with Callum in
the bar or when she teased Callum when she was drunk. Moreover, she felt like this man had a close
relationship with Callum.
“You look a bit familiar… Hey, aren’t you Elspeth? Why are you drinking alone in the bar? Is Callum not
here with you?” When the man saw that it was Elspeth, he quivered for a second. However, seeing that
she was alone, he couldn’t help but have some wicked ideas. As he spoke, he slowly sneaked his hand
around her waist. Since Elspeth wore a dress that showed her waist, he couldn’t help but keep touching
her smooth and delicate skin.
On the other hand, Elspeth tried to struggle out of his grip, but to no avail. Then, she glared at the man
harshly and said, “What do you think you are doing?”
Although the man acted like a pervert, he was good-looking, seemingly like a wealthy man. Seeing that
Elspeth was a feisty one, the man grew excited.
“Let me introduce myself to you, Elspeth. My name is Hex Sullivan. I bet you have heard of Sullivan
Corporation. That is my family’s business. If you wish, you can be my girlfriend, and I promise you that
you will have a great life.”
Hex Sullivan… Looking at his face, Elspeth smiled.
When Hex saw her smile, he was captivated. Just as he was about to continue his words, a foot
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsuddenly stepped on his harshly.
“Ahh!!!” Immediately, he loosened his hand that was around her waist. Then, before he had the chance
to teach Elspeth a lesson, she grabbed his ear.
“Who do you think you are to be flirting with me? Do you think I won’t fight back?” said Elspeth.
Since she had taken some shots, she didn’t restrain herself like she usually would. Plus, she was angry
with Callum just a moment ago, so she was not in a good mood. At this moment, Hex had just dug his
own grave.
Hex was just a flirter. At that moment, he was frightened and covered his ears as he yelped in pain. “I’m
sorry, I’m sorry. I really am. I won’t do it ever again. Please just let me go!” Hex cried out. Never had he
expected that Elspeth was a tough one. All I did was flirt with her, and yet she embarrassed me!
In the end, before Elspeth was done with him, she heard a familiar voice behind her.
“Elspeth? What’s going on?”
Hearing the voice, Elspeth turned around and saw that it was Yelena. She almost couldn’t recognize
Yelena when the latter had worn heavy makeup. However, it was best for Yelena to do so since she
needed to lower her profile with that reputation of hers. After all, who would have thought that this sexy
woman was Yelena when she had always pictured herself as innocent?
“Why are you here? Elspeth was confused.
Before Yelena could explain, she saw Elspeth grabbing Hex’s ear and couldn’t help but twitch her lips.
“Elspeth, what are you…”
“He is a pervert. He assaulted me just now, so I am teaching him a lesson.”
“What do you mean by assault? It was an accident. Are you that uptight? I would never want a woman
whom Callum rejected!” Hex yelled.
A hint of glint flashed across Elspeth’s eyes when she heard his words. Then, she put more force onto
his ear.
“Ouch! I’m sorry. I’ll never touch you ever again. Please forgive me, okay?” he elaborated as he thought,
How unlucky of me to encounter such a crazy woman!
“Hex, are you here to hook up with some girls? I’m going to tell Dad about this right now, and you will be
grounded again!” Yelena fished out her phone and was going to make the call.
When Hex saw her actions, he looked at her in horror and said, “My baby sister. My dear Yelena. Please,
don’t tell Dad. He will kill me if he finds out about this!”
“No, he won’t. He will just ground you for days to make you learn your lesson. He won’t do anything else
to you!” she responded.
However, Hex was frightened by the prior experience where he was locked in the dark. He never wanted
to relive that horrible experience ever again. “Alright, I’ll apologize to her, okay? Just don’t tell Dad!”
Then, he turned around and apologized to Elspeth unwillingly. “I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. I hope that you
can forgive me.”
Realization hit upon Elspeth when she looked at the duo. Yelena Sullivan and Hex Sullivan… They are
siblings.
When Yelena saw that Elspeth didn’t budge, she frowned and said, “She hasn’t forgiven you yet. Keep
apologizing to her, or I will telй Dad!”
When Hex heard her words, he had a painful expression. “What? Why? I have apologized to her
already!”
“You didn’t say it sincerely, so that doesn’t count. Keep going!”
“Don’t you try to fool me, Yelena. I know your dirt too. I know you have a crush on Ma-” Before Hex could
finish his words, Yelena covered his mouth.
Looking at their interactions, Elspeth was not angry anymore. Rather, she found it funny. “Alright, stop
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfighting. It’s fine.”
Hearing her words, Yelena released Elspeth’s hand and said, “Hex has this attitude since no one has
ever taught him manners.”
When Hex heard his sister’s words, he was going to retort. However, he bit back his tongue when he saw
Yelena glaring at him.
“Why are you here too, Elspeth?”
“Nothing much. I’m just here to have some drinks.” As Elspeth spoke, she was almost sober.
“I have heard what happened with you and the Winthrops from Hex. Don’t fret. I know you aren’t that
kind of a person. I believe in you!”
When Elspeth heard her words, she felt touched and sad at the same time. Even Yelena chose to
believe me no matter what, but Callum… No, why am I thinking about this again? Then, Elspeth shook
her head.
Then, she asked Yelena, “What are you doing here tonight? Aren’t you afraid that someone might
recognize you?”
When Hex heard her words, he immediately interrupted and elaborated, “It’s only natural for her to be
here when that Max kid is here too. She always follows him around like a stalker. If her fans were to
know that the Human Barbie stalked someone like a serial killer, they would have unfollowed her.”
“Max?”
When Elspeth said the name, she could see Yelena blush furiously.
“Elspeth…”
“Okay. Why here, though?”
At that moment, Yelena fidgeted and didn’t know how to tell Elspeth about it.
On the other hand, Hex couldn’t stand seeing Yelena’s reaction and said, “Today is my birthday, so I
invited Max over. You know how I have many women surrounding me, so she fears that someone might
steal Max from her. That is why she is here.”
