Love’s Perfect Match Chapter 317


    Damoria. Callum’s eyes were filled with rage as he read the newspaper at his desk. That’s impossible!


    Elspeth was still alive and running around about two weeks ago. How could she have died from a


    disease in just a few days?He didn’t believe it, or maybe he refused to believe it.The assistant looked


    at his boss’ gloomy expression from the side, not daring to say anything.A long whileter, Callum


    rolled the newspaper into a ball and threw it into the trash can.The nervousness and depression he felt


    just now disappeared in an instant.“Mr. Winthrop, the department manager—”Callum swept his gaze


    over the assistant’s face and ordered, “Let him settle the matter himself.”Hearing that, the assistant


    started sweating profusely, wondering if it was a good idea to let the department manager deal with this


    matter independently. After all, that wasn’t a simple matter.However, judging by how his boss seemed a


    little absentminded and had no intention of getting involved, the assistant pondered for a moment and


    finally left.Only Callum was inside therge, spacious office. He tugged on his necktie as he felt


    suffocated.He knew she shouldn’t care about Elspeth, but he felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness


    whenever he thought about the formerly living and breathing woman suddenly disappearing from the


    world.There were no words to describe how he felt.He didn’t care about her but seemed to care a lot


    about her.He felt a little angry when he found out about her engagement a week ago. Didn’t that


    woman say she loved me? How could she be willing to marry another man if the news described it


    correctly? Like what they say, women are heartless and can’t make up their minds.At first, Callum had


    thought about heading to ydal and finding her, but after reading the news, he went against that


    idea.He couldn’t describe his feelings, but he knew his heart felt empty.It was as if he had lost


    something very important.In the end, he still opened a ticket-selling website and booked himself a flight


    to ydal.Elspeth was his fiancée, so he must see her, even if she were a corpse.…At the same time,


    it wasn’t peaceful at Arthur’s vi either.Helena was staring at Elspeth, feeling puzzled. “Isn’t the one


    you like the eldest son of the Winthrop Family? Why did you suddenly decide to get engaged to Arthur?


    Well, he’s quite a good man…”As Helena didn’t know about what Arthur did before, her impression of


    him was that he was a benevolent doctor who gave her unconditional treatment, and that was why she


    had a good feeling about him.When Elspeth heard what her mother said, she scoffed. Is Arthur


    considered a good man? I didn’t see any good in him when he forced me to jump off a cliff.However,


    Elspeth couldn’t tell Helena the ins and outs as Helena might think Elspeth was being forced to get


    engaged to Arthur and thus refuse treatment.“Mom, we can never be sure about our feelings, right?”


    After letting out an embarrassed chuckle, Elspeth found a vague excuse to avoid the topic.“Fine. Since


    you’ve made your choice, I won’t stop you.” Helena patted Elspeth’s hand before looking at Arthur not


    far away from them. “Since you’ve decided to be with him, be serious about it. You’re about to get


    engaged to him, so don’t mess around.”It was then that Helena recovered from the continuous


    shocking events that had happened recently.First, it was her daughter feigning death to escape from


    her marriage, followed by her n to bring her daughter abroad, and now her daughter had changed


    fiancés.It seemed like Elspeth’s life was no less exciting than hers when she was young! However, this


    situation wasn’t bad either because after they left for abroad, Michael wouldn’t be able to find out


    Elspeth’s whereabouts, and she could escape from the Jonesons’ control for a while. Therefore, it was


    quite a good thing.“This is great…” Helena nced at Arthur from the corner of her eye and felt even


    more satisfied the more she looked at him. Such a nice man would be a good match for


    Elspeth.Noticing Helena’s approving nce, Arthur spoke up. “Miss Joneson, I’ve checked your


    condition just now. Your body’s condition is quite good, so we can leave tomorrow. The sooner we


    leave, the better, as your condition can’t allow any dys.”“Sure.” As Helena trusted Arthur, she didn’t


    reject his suggestion but nodded in agreement.When her gazended on the dazed Elspeth, she


    smiled and asked, “What’s the matter, Elsie? Do you have something you need to do?”At that moment,


    Arthur also looked over, and his gaze had a hint of scrutiny.“Nothing. I have gotten pretty much


    everything done. I was just daydreaming.”Afterward, Helena didn’t ask any more questions. She


    massaged her temples while announcing tiredly, “I’m feeling a little tired, so I’ll be heading upstairs to


    rest.”As Helena didn’t know about what Arthur did before, her impression of him was that he was a


    benevolent doctor who gave her unconditional treatment, and that was why she had a good feeling


    about him.“Alright. Have a good rest, Mom.”Once Helena left, Elspeth looked at Arthur with eyes


    zing with anger.Not knowing why she was staring at him like that, Arthur asked, “Why are you


    looking at me like that?”“I don’t know either. It’s just purely because I despise you.”However, Elspeth


    could only vent her anger out on the pillow in her hand. Punch after punch, she hit it.Arthur instantly


    realized something andzily leaned against the couch, pointing out, “Do you think I don’t understand


    you? You must be thinking of Callum right now. You’re disappointed that Callum has forgotten your


    rtionship and still hasn’t found you. So, you don’t want to leave, and you’re unwilling to let


    go…”Everything he said was on point.Elspeth was stunned and didn’t know what to do.“But so what?


    You and Callum can never be together anymore.” When Arthur looked toward Elspeth, he was taken


    aback as he had never seen her cry.This was the first time he saw tears streaming down her face. She


    didn’t look particrly sad and was just crying. The scene before him left a pang in his heart.Arthur


    never cared about women crying, even if it was Emma. He only liked Emma’s beautiful side and


    helping her solve her hardships was only to return her favor.However, he felt a hint of sympathy when


    seeing Elspeth cry.He began feeling inexplicably guilty and wondered if his words were too harsh on


    her.“You’re right. I was thinking about him.” Elspeth wiped her tears and tried to speak calmly, but


    Arthur could still hear a slight tremble in her voice. “I know that we can never be together, so you don’t


    have to rub it in.”Everyone in the world kept reminding her that she and Callum could never be


    ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .


    together.She knew that, but those memories were deeply carved into her memory and attached to her


    nerves, so it did hurt. How can I forget about Callum, the man who is cold as ice but only gentle to me?


    Perhaps I will never be able to forget him in this lifetime.Elspeth raised her head and stared at Arthur


    with a serious expression. “Arthur.”When she called his name, it sounded simple and crisp but with a


    slight hint of nasal tone.“Yes?”Elspeth breathed through her reddened nose while forcing a smile. “Let’s


    change the tickets to today and leave now.”
