Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me novel Chapter 668

Chapter 668 Finding Out the Truth

After hearing what Edmund had said, Elspeth blinked her eyes and said nothing. As the air grew awkward and tense, she decided to change the topic. "Why don't we head downstairs?"

Edmund nodded in response. "Okay. Let's go."

Meanwhile, Callum's face turned ugly when he noticed the two descended the stairs.

"Have you been waiting for long, Cal?" she asked.

After hearing this, he took a deep breath, and a dark cloud formed in his eyes. "Not really. Since you are pregnant, I was only concerned that you might be exhausted or unwell."

He seems to have brought up the subject of my pregnancy on purpose. Naturally, Elspeth could see what the man was up to, but his jealousy reminded her that she could only go along with his act. "I'm fine. I only went upstairs for a little stroll. That won't tire me."

When Edmund heard about this, he looked shocked and exclaimed, "Pregnant?"

"Yes, but I'm not that far along. It's only two months." While saying this, she stroked her belly subconsciously as a maternal glow shone on her face.

"That's great news."

"Yes, it is. What about you? When are you going to get married?" Callum had prodded at the subject on purpose to observe Edmund's reaction.

Nonetheless, Edmund shrugged and replied, "I don't plan on marrying anytime soon. Since I have Cam to look after, I can't just marry anyone. If the person I marry is ultimately not a good fit for him, it will be bad for him."

"It looks like you truly love him. You treat him like your own son now," Elspeth chimed in.

After hearing this, he raised an eyebrow and blurted, "What do you mean by that? He is my own son."

Meanwhile, Callum was similarly ecstatic when he heard that. "Edmund… Thank you so much for shouldering the burden for me."

Then, Edmund huffed, "I've already raised a son for you. Does that mean you must give me some of your company shares?"

Callum's grin instantly disappeared, and he refused, "No way."

However, Edmund clicked his tongue and stated, "You are so ungrateful. Look at what I've done for you, and yet you can't afford to give me a tiny bit of your shares. What a stingy man."

Suddenly, the sound of glass breaking echoed down from upstairs.

The three adults simultaneously turned around to find the boy standing at the top of the stairs with a dazed look in his eyes that seemed to radiate an air of disbelief.

Earlier, Cameron had dragged himself out of his room to apologize to Edmund. After all, he knew it was wrong for him to give away one of his father's personal belongings without first asking permission, and he also revealed his secret. In addition, the boy realized that his behavior had crossed the line. However, he had not expected to leave his room and overhear such a huge secret.

I am not Daddy's son, but Uncle Callum's. So, I am Uncle Callum's biological son. No wonder I do not feel any sort of father-son bond with Daddy. Also, it's no surprise that Elsie would have a strange expression whenever she looked at me. This explains why Uncle Callum would sneak over so often. Although he was still a young boy, he had a sharp mind regarding these matters. Is it because my mommy loved someone else and Uncle Callum did not want me? Is it because I am a nobody who is disliked by everyone? Despite his realizations, all he could do was stand there, befuddled and lost.

"Oh, I hear that you'll be bringing Cam abroad?" Callum tried to change the subject subtly.

"Yes. Future plans may include a greater emphasis on international expansion. I'll be worried if the boy is alone here, so I'd like to bring him with me," Edmund answered.

After hearing this, Cameron was beside himself with joy. "Daddy promised me he would take me to see the kangaroos!" There was an eager look on his face as he continued, "I have never been out of the country before. How I wish to see other countries." His face then fell into a disappointed pout. "It's a pity that Elsie isn't going with me. I want to go on holiday with her."

However, Edmund laughed and stated, "She is pregnant with a baby, so she can't go on holiday with you just yet."

Cameron's eyes went wide upon hearing this. "A baby?" After saying this, he leaned close to Elspeth's belly and curiously gave the tiny bump on her belly a gentle poke. However, he was so afraid that he might have poked too hard or scared the baby, so he immediately withdrew his finger after poking the bump. "Does that mean I'm going to have a little brother or sister soon?" he asked.

She nodded and replied, "That's right. In a few months, you'll have a little sibling."

Nevertheless, his joy swiftly disappeared, and he said, "However, I could be abroad by then. I'm not sure when we'll be returning."

After hearing this, Elspeth grinned and tapped the tip of his nose. "Don't worry. We'll video call you then so that you can see the baby."

"That's great!" Cameron grinned before blurting out, "Would the baby look like me?"

On the other hand, the question he asked detonated like a bomb, and the soft expressions on the three adults' faces vanished instantly.
