Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me Chapter 233
Elspeth’s expression changed as she asked, “What exactly happened?”
Yelena’s gaze darkened with sadness when she mumbled, “Do you recall the previous drug incident? A crew member of the ‘Song of Viollenys’ was behind it. Timothy went to demand an explanation, but they beat him up before throwing him out, severely injuring him. They even threatened and said that because our CEO is now despised by everyone, the rest of us should stay out of trouble or they will kill us the next time…”
‘Song of Viollenys’… It’s Emma again!
“Why didn’t you tell me this earlier?” Elspeth asked as she stared at Yelena with a reproaching gaze.
Yelena hesitated for a moment before answering, “You weren’t having a good time either. Timothy was also fine, so he asked me not to bother you with this matter.”
She was a soft-hearted person. She knew Elspeth was having a bad time being detested by the entire online community. Therefore, she did as Timothy said and kept the matter hidden from Elspeth.
“Where’s Timothy now?”
“In the hospital.”
Elspeth and Callum then hurried over to the hospital.
The hospital Timothy was in happened to be the one where she had previously stayed due to her allergy, but they had never met in the hospital, not even once.
When Elspeth arrived at his ward, she saw Blake feeding Timothy water. When they saw her, the both of them exchanged glances guiltily.
“Drinking water, huh?” Elspeth didn’t say much, but the coldness in her eyes was terrifying.
Timothy almost trembled out of fear as he smiled fawningly and asked, “Hello, Elspeth. What brings you here?” Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
“If I’m not here, how would I know our respectable Mr. Stevens is here, enjoying his life with a broken leg?”
Timothy’s injuries were serious and one of his legs was broken. As such, it was hung mid-air, looking rather amusing.
“I’m just resting. I’ll be able to return as soon as I’ve had enough rest. The shoot will not be delayed.”
The next second, Timothy gave Yelena, who was standing behind Elspeth, a stern glare, as if questioning her for leaking this information.
“Don’t glare at her. If she hadn’t told me and I had discovered it on my own, I would have scolded her along with you all.”
Elspeth’s tone was so cold that Yelena couldn’t help but hide behind her, afraid to say anything.
“You all have gone overboard. How could you go over there and demand an explanation? Aren’t you afraid of getting beaten up?”
Elspeth could feel a headache coming on when she deduced what had happened. “Tell me why you went looking for trouble for yourself.”
“You’ve no idea what happened, Elspeth. When the police took the person away, she repeated that it wasn’t her idea. She claimed that someone from another crew instructed her to do so and she had no idea how things would turn out. So…”
“So, you went looking for them?” Elspeth asked with a frown.
Timothy touched his nose in embarrassment. “I’m just indignant that Yelena was framed,” he muttered. “You’ve no idea that Blake was there, and he was good too! Being young is indeed different. He managed to defeat the few men with no injuries to himself!”
“What about you? Why didn’t you defeat them, Mr. Stevens?”
Timothy gulped and replied, “Well, I am weaker, but we were still in an advantageous position initially! It was just that their bodyguards arrived in time and threw us out…”
The thought of both of them being thrown out was enough to make Elspeth feel disgraced.
“Both of you are adults, so stop acting like kids! Especially you, Timothy—you are already thirty! Even your son will laugh at your childish behavior!”
“My son has visited me, and he says that I am a hero,” Timothy said with a light cough.
At this point, Callum, who was standing off to one side, put his arm around Elspeth’s shoulders and said nonchalantly, “Our son won’t be this silly.”
Elspeth nodded in agreement.
Timothy was speechless.
“So, are they the ones who caused you these injuries?”
Coldness flashed across her eyes as she stared at his swollen legs.
“This…” Yelena wanted to say something from behind, but Timothy’s glare stopped her from doing so.
He put on a smile and said, “I’m fine—”
But Elspeth ignored him and turned to Yelena, who was standing behind her, and said, “You can continue.”
“Mr. Stevens’ leg injury was caused by himself. He sprained it when he came back.”
Timothy’s face immediately flushed with embarrassment. “That’s enough. Don’t expose me anymore.”
Elspeth, however, couldn’t control herself and burst out laughing.
“Stop laughing. I already know it’s funny.”
After all, it was indeed amusing for him to not get injured during the fight but to sprain himself when he was on the way back.
With this, everyone in the ward began to laugh.
The ambiance became more harmonious and Elspeth decided not to pursue the matter.
After chatting with Timothy, both Elspeth and Callum returned to the hotel while Yelena and Blake went back to the set to continue filming.
Callum noticed that Elspeth was a little absent-minded. “What are you thinking?” he asked.
“Emma is most likely the person behind this. I don’t want to let her off so easily,” Elspeth replied, her voice cold and her gaze dark.
“What do you plan to do, then?”
Elspeth touched her chin. Seemingly in thought, she said indifferently, “I’m going to teach their crew a lesson.”
“What do you mean?” Callum raised his brows and asked.
“You’ll know soon.”
Elspeth then let out a faint smile as a plan was formulated in her mind.
The next morning, a piece of news on Twitter appeared, conveying that the release of the ‘Song of Viollenys’ would be delayed and would no longer be broadcast together with ‘The Moment I Met You’.
‘The Moment I Met You’ was a romance drama starring Yelena and Blake, which focused on the characters’ school lives.
Many fans began to voice their opinions, complaining that they had waited so long, only to learn that the show had been postponed. Other fans began to speculate as to the true reason for this.
In the afternoon, Emma revealed that her face was riddled with acne and blemishes. She even posted proof of her hospital treatment and announced that such a situation was unlikely to improve in a matter of weeks. Hence, she could not continue with her work and the shooting had to be delayed.
Someone on the Internet then commented, ‘Since she can’t shoot, just replace her.’
Such a thought immediately gained a lot of supporters.
It caused a chain reaction, as such a comment also sparked many people’s ideas and arguments.
‘Emma’s acting isn’t particularly good either. Look at all of her previous shows. They are all bad!’
‘Emma doesn’t look special and neither is she easily recognized. Maybe it’s just me, but I really can’t seem to appreciate her beauty.’
‘Emma is not suited to be cast in a historical drama at all. Have you all seen the film stills? She looks terrible! The show should replace her, or else they will never get a high rating!’
Meanwhile, Emma, who was in the hospital for treatment, had hoped for the netizens’ concern and sympathy. However, when she read all of the comments, she almost blew her top.
