Chapter 376 Honesty, the Best Policy
Jasmine went back to Callum's office, and she stared at him like a kitten staring at her owner. "It's the weekend tomorrow. Can you go shopping with me? It won't take too long." She was being humble, thinking that it would gain some sympathy.
"I can't. I have a meeting tomorrow."
For some reason, Jasmine mustered up some courage. "If it's not important, then delay it." She was used to everyone doing her bidding, but Jasmine had forgotten that the list of people who would spoil her didn't include Callum.
"Enough, Jasmine." Callum was annoyed, but he didn't show it. For some reason, he was reminded of Elspeth. She wouldn't say something this stupid.
He didn't realize Jasmine was looking dejected as he was preoccupied with his thoughts. "Callum, I'm talking to you. Why are you spacing out?" What is he thinking about? Her sixth sense told her it was Elspeth.
"Nothing."
Jealous, Jasmine asked, "Who was it? Who were you thinking about? Elspeth?"
Callum shot her an icy look. "Enough." He would've been patient with her before this, but he was already angered.
So, it's true. Jasmine felt down. Suddenly, she was reminded of something, and she took out her phone from her bag. "Calm down, Callum. I went to say hi to Miss Lynwood yesterday when I passed by Azure, and I recorded our conversation. Do you want to hear?"
Callum saw through Jasmine's trick right away. She's trying to fan the flames. Since it was related to Elspeth, he pretended not to care. "No."
"I think you should. She had a point, you know. Maybe you'll hate her less after you've heard it."
As if you care about our relationship that much. Callum didn't refuse this time, or it'd look like he still couldn't let Elspeth go. Since Callum said nothing, Jasmine played the recording.
"I don't love him anymore… purely professional… no relationships… I don't care about him… not interested…"
The recording was choppy. Jasmine had edited some of her parts out, leaving only the part where she advised Elspeth in. Once it was done playing, she looked at Callum curiously, wondering what he would say.
Callum didn't even blink. Calmly, he answered, "Is that all? Now can I go back to work?"
Callum wasn't fazed. On the contrary, Jasmine felt like she had wasted her time, but it was a good thing that Callum reacted that way. She went up to him with a smile and leaned over, showing off her cleavage. She did it on purpose, of course. Men think with their dicks. I have to show off sometimes. My simps told me I have a great body.
Yet, Callum wasn't interested at all. He was focused on the document before him.
Even when she felt her back giving out, Callum still wouldn't look up. She held her lower back and stood up straight. Annoyed, she said, "Why won't you look at me?"
"I'm not shipping you with her per se, but it's easier to get new fans if you guys collaborate."
Jethro waved her down. "I don't care. I can buy my fans."
For once, Elspeth was irritated, and she raised her voice. "I am the boss here, Jethro!"
Since Elspeth was angry, Jethro stopped talking back. He stared at the ground and muttered, "I'm a loyal guy. I don't want to date any other woman."
"If you don't do as I say, I'll take it as insubordination. We don't need employees who won't do as they're told." She was threatening to fire him if he wouldn't do as he was told.
The same threat again? Jethro hated it, but he put on a smile anyway. "Fine, fine." Guess I'll have to pull some pranks, then.
Thinking that she finally got through to Jethro, she said, "I'll hook you up with Skylar later. See if you can work together. If you guys are okay with it, we'll go with this collaboration." Skylar Byron was the hottest influencer she had, aside from Jethro. She was sweet and adorable, just like most people's first love. I bet their collaboration will be really popular.
This time, Jethro didn't protest. Mysteriously, he said, "I'm looking forward to it." Don't blame me if something bad happens, Elsie.
