Love’s Perfect Match Chapter 159
On the first day Elspeth moved in, Michael told Frank to take her to the best mall in town for a shopping
spree.
Frank wanted to refuse, but Michael promised to raise his allowance if he brought Elspeth around town,
so he reluctantly took the job. The old man grinned and whipped out a card from his pocket before
giving it to Elspeth. “You’re part of the family now, so you too get some allowance. Spend it how you
like. Tell me if you need more.”
The card was ck in color, but the words on it were golden. Elspeth had the same card, and it wasn’t
the kind of card that was given away freely, not even to those with power. Michael might be a git, but he
was generous with his money. Elspeth was about to refuse, but the old man could be stubborn and
sneaky when he wanted to, so she took it. You owe me, old man. Just taking what’s mine.
They went to the mall, and Elspeth walked around. Frank followed her with his hands in his pockets. He
was also sulking.
There weren’t any clothes she liked after visiting several shops, so she bought none. “You can take a
rest if you want, Frank. I’ll holler at you once I’m done.” She smiled. Oh, he’s wobbling. She clicked her
tongue, “Honestly, your stamina sucks.”
Frank was about to take her up on the offer, but he wouldn’t take that insult from her quietly. “What did
you say? Keep walking. We’re not going back until nighttime.”
Oh good. He’s annoyed. Delighted, she walked away and came to a boutique. One of the dresses
inside caught her eye. It was a long fitted ck dress with diamonds embedded along its hem, and the
bottom of the dress was pleated to resemble flowers. Its sleeves and cor were connected by nothing
but beautiful strips of fabric, revealing the skin of its wearer.
Noticing her interest, the retail assistant approached her with a smile. “Good eye, miss. This is our
store’s pride and joy. Only three of its kind in the world, and this is thest one. You look perfect in the
dress. Would you like to try it on?”
Elspeth wasn’t interested. She was just observing the dress. This looks familiar.
The retail assistant wouldn’t give up and continued, “It’s a nice dress, miss. Why don’t you try it on?
You won’t regret it.” Then she saw Frank, and her eyes shone. “You can ask your boyfriend. I bet he
thinks you look great in this dress too.”
Elspeth cocked her eyebrow. “He’s not my boyfriend.”
Frank rolled his eyes. “I would never fall for a woman like her.”
The retail assistant stood there in awkward silence. Okay, this is interesting.
Then, a sickly-sweet voice said, “I like that one. Let me try it on.”
Elspeth turned around and was met with a girl in expensive clothes, though it couldn’t hide herck of
grace and ss. Elspeth took a step back.
Thinking that Elspeth was scared of her, the girl raised her head like a proud little peacock. “Good.
Don’t even try to get in my way, peasant.”
Excuse me? Elspeth was about to leave, but then she turned back around. “What did you say?”
What? Is this peasant talking to me? A frown creased the woman’s forehead and she snapped, “I want
this dress, so you’d better stay out of my way, peasant.”
“You really ought to get your head checked, woman.”
Wait, why did she say that? A long, long whileter, she realized that Elspeth was mocking her, and it
made her anger re. “Do you have any idea who I am? I’m Jordan of the Weiss Family. Nobody talks
to me like that.”
How dare this peasant talk to me like that? She’s dead! Jordan no longer cared about her image and
was about to p Elspeth when Elspeth held her hand in a vice grip. No matter what she did, Jordan
couldn’t escape, and she shot Elspeth a nasty re. “Nobody stops me, peasant! My father will hear of
this! And he’s going to exile you and your family from this city!”
Just then, Frank stood up and approached Elspeth. “Is that right, Miss Weiss? Did you just say your
father would exile my family?” He had a smile on his face, but the fury in his voice was unmistakable.
“Should I call your father right now and ask him how he’s nning to exile us?”
Jordan was bbergasted. Frank? Why is he here? Frank was no troublemaker, but anyone who got on
his nerves would meet a grisly end. Wait. She’s part of the Jonesons? Jordan wouldn’t even have
talked like that to Elspeth if she knew Elspeth was a Joneson. “She’s your family?”
Jordan knew most of the Jonesons, but she had never seen Elspeth. Elspeth wasn’t part of ydal’s
upper society, which was why Jordan dared to talk down to her.
“She’s my sister and my grandfather’s grandkid. You have a problem with that?”
Jordan shook her head as hard as she could. “No. No problem at all. She’s perfect for the dress. It’s all
yours, Miss Joneson.”
Do not call me that. Elspeth said, “Lynwood. My name is Lynwood.”
“I’m sorry for crossing you, Miss Lynwood. Please, forgive me.”
Jordan might be a spoiled brat, but she would never offend the Jonesons. Now, she had no choice but

to beg for mercy. If her family was ruined because of this, she would be done for.
Elspeth was about to shrug things off, but Frank wanted to be cheeky. “Trying to save your skin?” He
was up to another prank. “Then you’re paying for the dress.”
Wow. He looks like a scammer now. For some reason, Elspeth thought it was amusing.
Jordan thought her apology was enough, but she was wrong. She grimaced at the thought of the hefty
price tag on the dress. Thest time she was here, she saw that this dress cost about seven hundred
and fifty grand, which was about five months’ worth of her allowance. She saved up for a long time and
begged her father to chip in just so she could buy it, but now she had to give it all up and get nothing in
return. Oh my god…
She’s hesitating. “What? You won’t do it?” Frank sighed. “I’ll call your father then. See if he can exin
himself.”
Panicked, Jordan said, “I’ll do it! Don’t call my father.” She took out a card from her bag and reluctantly
gave it to the retail assistant.
Thedy swiped the card and returned it to Jordan. “Your remaining bnce is seven dors and thirty-
eight cents, Miss Weiss.”
Elspeth burst intoughter.
