Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 430

On the other hand, Elspeth's quick agreement surprised Haris.

"You're not joking with me, are you?" he asked, swallowing some of his skepticism at her response.

Then, she chuckled slyly and made up her mind. "Of course not. Since you promised to teach me everything, you can't back out now."

Hearing that, he realized he had fallen into her trap. "You are quite mischievous," he sighed, rubbing his beard. "I will keep my promise, but you must promise not to go out these days and not to delay the wedding of those two."

She nodded decisively, hiding any emotions on her face, and appeared completely different from before. "Sure."

Soon, Haris smiled happily and said, "Those who recognize the times are wise. Since you can think this way, that's better. The room to the east is specially prepared for you. Starting today, you can stay here temporarily."

…

Meanwhile, in Callum's office, the atmosphere was tense.

Yelena stood before him, furious and ready to strangle him by the tie. "Tell me, where did you hide Elspeth?" she demanded, eyes blazing red with rage.

On the other hand, Hank watched silently with minimal facial expression while he observed Callum's reaction.

"She's disappeared. Why would you suspect me?" When Callum learned of Elspeth's disappearance, he showed no emotion, which disappointed Yelena, and even appeared impatient.

"I never thought you could be such a heartless person. Even if you had nothing to do with her disappearance, she is missing, and you don't seem to care. She liked you so much... Callum, you are a despicable jerk!"

Although her insults were harsh, he remained unfazed. "If there's nothing else, please leave. I have work to do." He didn't want to hear Yelena's endless cursing and yelling any longer and hoped they could leave soon and give him some peace and quiet.

"I'm asking you one more time. Did you do this?" She was so enraged that tears welled in her eyes, and she slammed her hand on the desk, startling Hank.

Soon, Callum's expression grew icy. "This is your last warning. Don't cause a scene here." Then, he turned to Hank. "Take her away."

Nonetheless, Hank could not tolerate seeing Yelena humiliated, so he defended her. "Mr. Winthrop, why are you in such a hurry? Guilty conscience?"

Callum was taken aback that even Hank was against him. Before he could speak, Jasmine rushed into the office, looking excited. She opened her mouth to speak but stopped when she saw everyone in the room.

Seeing her leaving in a rage, Jasmine breathed a sigh of relief. She turned to Callum and said, "I took care of everything."

Then, he raised his eyebrows, and a hint of emotion appeared in his eyes. "Has she arrived at the McGrath Residence?"

"Yes. I've sent her to live with my grandpa. He said she's quite obedient, so I think she's happy to be there."

At the thought of Elspeth soon recovering her health, a hint of tender affection shone in his eyes. He had suppressed his feelings for her for so long but no longer needed to.

"So, when will we get married, Callum?" Jasmine inquired. Elspeth's submissive attitude has me convinced that Callum must help her. If she can recover and then return to compete with me for him, I will be in a worse position. Furthermore, this is unacceptable, so I must firmly bind him to myself before her return.

The man gave the impression that he had no intention to renege, and then he gave a slight nod and said, "The wedding will proceed as planned."

Hearing that, she smiled happily and walked up to him, placing her hand on his shoulder and gently massaging it. "Callum, do you still love her?"

He took a deep breath and gently held her hand with his right hand. "I've already told you that once this is all settled, my feelings for her are over."
