Love's Perfect Match

Love’s Perfect Match Chapter 234

Emma browsed through the comments section. Almost all of them were pointing out her flaws and

asking her to quit the film, or even stop acting altogether.

Even more, some people forwarded Elspeth’s video to humiliate Emma, indicating that even an

amateur acted better than her.

Her body was shaking involuntarily in anger. Waking up to find red spots on her face not only held up

her chance to shoot films but also forced her to be admitted to the hospital. To make things worse,

even the netizens were criticizing her.

Just as she was feeling utterly upset, Arthur suddenly called her. Taking a deep breath, she read the

caller ID on the screen, feeling nothing but irritation.

Nevertheless, she answered the call.

“Hello? What is it, Arthur?”

His voice betrayed a hint of panic, but he managed to hide it. “What happened to you? Have you seen

the comments online?”

Emma blamed everything on her bad luck, so she answered sadly, “I have no idea. I woke up to find

red spots on my face. However, Elspeth probably has something to do with the comments online. She

surely is out to suppress me!”

Just the thought of this matter made Emma grit her teeth.

“Have you ever thought that Elspeth might be responsible for the red spots on your face?”

His words put a frown between her brows. “Really? Elspeth is staying in Damoria for the time being,

isn’t she? Besides, I doubt she’s that capable.”

However, Arthur understood Elspeth’s capability to manipulate others very well. Thus, he sneered,

“There’s one thing you need to know. Elspeth’s capabilities are beyond what you can imagine. You

don’t even know how many identities she is using.”

Thinking that he was exaggerating Elspeth’s abilities on purpose, Emma frowned deeper. “So what?

Even if she has exceptional abilities, she can’t do anything to my face, can she? I visited the doctor a

while ago. He says that I’m allergic to plants. It might be caused by—”

“What if I tell you her mentor is Sonny Schwartz, the expert on traditional medicine?”

The new information changed everything, and a cruel look formed on Emma’s face. “I get what you

mean. What should I do?”

“Keep this between us. For the time being, stay in the hospital to rest and recuperate. I’ll deal with it

when the time comes.”

As soon as Emma heard that, her voice turned gentle. “Arthur, thank you so much. I can’t even begin to

imagine what I would do without you.”

The man on the other side of the line curled his lips into a faint smile. “If so, meet up with me tonight.”

Emma immediately took the hint. Their meeting wouldn’t be as simple as it sounded. Instead, it would

end up being more intimate.

“You’re such a naughty boy.” She feigned shyness on the surface, but she was trying to suppress the

feeling of repugnance in her heart.NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

She decided that once she dealt with the despicable Elspeth, she would dump the clingy Arthur. By that

time, Callum would definitely regret breaking up with her.

Meanwhile, Elspeth burst into laughter after she read the comments.

Callum was sitting on the sofa as he took his time to peel an orange for her. Noticing her amused

reaction, he smiled slightly. “What is it? Are you that happy just because you dealt with Emma?”

“She had it coming. The negative comments are all over the Internet. It’s hilarious.”

He nodded. “You’re right. Her mistakes are unforgivable, so she has to pay the price.”

He wasn’t feeling bad for Emma at all. After everything she had done, she had lost his favor.

“Aren’t you feeling bad even for a little bit? After all, she was your girlfriend once and you would take a

bullet for her.”

Elspeth was upset to recall this chapter in Callum’s past.

“I think there’s something you need to know.”

She was confused to see the seriousness that gathered on his face all of a sudden. “What is it about? If

it’s related to Emma, I’m just messing with you. I don’t—”

“First of all, I didn’t make any vows when I was dating her. Besides, what Arthur told you wasn’t exactly

the truth. We broke up only because she wanted to pursue her dreams, and our view of the world was

incompatible. Secondly, my affection for her gradually died down after she left because I didn’t fall that

hard for her. Thus, she had nothing to do with my obsession with work. Lastly, the reason I would still

be affected by the mention of her name is that I wanted to know what kind of woman she was to turn

her back on her love and choose to break up without hesitation, just to pursue her so-called dream. It

was only later that I learned she had been seeing a man from another country for a long time. He’s the

director who discovered her and made her famous.”

It was Elspeth’s first time hearing such words from Callum, so she had difficulty digesting the

information.

She was also relieved to see him sharing his story in a calm tone without showing any hint of regret or

other emotions.

When he was done, he looked into her eyes and asked, “Now, do you have any questions?”

“S-So, in conclusion, she cheated on you?”

Elspeth’s way of thinking was unconventional. Even Callum couldn’t keep up with her when he heard

such an unexpected question.

When he finally registered the question in his mind, he gritted his teeth. “Don’t you have a better

question?”

Elspeth couldn’t help but chuckle upon discovering a new side of Callum. “Think about it, the famous

Mr. CEO gets cheated on. It’ll definitely make a good headline.”

Callum’s expression immediately turned dark.

“Okay, okay. I’ll stop.” When his expression continued to darken, she shook her head with a smile. “By

the way, I talked to Yelena today and learned that the crew hasn’t been shooting for a few days mainly

because a certain person quit the shooting after being poisoned. They couldn’t find a suitable

candidate to replace her on such short notice.”

The complication of the situation made Elspeth frown in annoyance.

“Can’t you find a suitable actress in your company? Just call the candidates over for an audition.”

If Callum’s memory served him right, it was only a supporting role. It wasn’t like it mattered.

Fixing her gaze on his face, Elspeth forced a smile. “Unfortunately, the actresses who suit the role are

all shooting other films at the moment. I don’t think I can find someone suitable on such short notice.”

After pondering for a while, Callum eventually looked at her. “Maybe you can consider playing the role

yourself?”

Her smile froze as she stared at him. “Me? Are you sure I fit the role? Besides, I’m not interested in

acting at all and I can’t stand the environment.”

In short, she was just lazy.

“Why not? You fit the role, Elspeth. Do you remember your role in ‘Song of Viollenys’? The video went

viral online. If you think you’re inadequate to act, I don’t think any other person in the industry would be

suitable for this job.”

Elspeth scratched her cheek, slightly embarrassed by his compliment. “Back then, I was just trying to

make a comeback at Emma. Honestly, I’m not a good actress.”

“Time will tell. As for me, I have faith in you. Moreover, your recent video has made an impression on

the netizens. Joining the crew at this critical moment will only bring people’s attention to the film.”

Callum was indeed making good use of his financial acumen as his plan was aimed to maximize the

benefits.

At last, Elspeth had no other choice but to agree with him, “Fine. I’ll try.”
