Love’s Perfect Match Chapter 252
As Blake was about to greet the familiar face with a smile, his expression turned solemn when he
noticed the platinum card in her hand. He wondered why the card was with Lisa. As far as he
remembered, the card had always been left untouched in Elspeth’s purse. Moreover, the bunch of keys
had the same keychain as Elspeth’s. He couldn’t fathom why it was with Lisa. Don’t tell me…“Is she a
thief?” he whispered to himself. He then hurriedly went up to grab Lisa’s wrist and persuaded her, “Lisa,
why are you stealing things? You could let me know if you are broke. I’ll lend you the money. Return the
items at once, or you might go to jail if they catch you.” Blake was so worried about her that his
forehead was covered in sweat.Lisa recalled who Blake was and found his words funny yet odd. “Why
should I inform you if I’m broke?”Blake was equally surprised, not knowing why he blurted out such
words. “That’s because stealing isn’t right. Moreover, the items that you have stolen belong to Callum
and Elspeth.”Lisa looked at him helplessly upon hearing that. Rumor has it that Blake is a smart guy
who can memorize his lines by heart while filming, but why doesn’t that seem to be the case?“I didn’t
steal anything.”Lisa struggled to free her wrist, but Blake gripped it so tightly that she couldn’t escape.
With that, she threw a kick at him, and he finally let go to dodge the kick. Her hand was supple and
soft.“Don’t touch me.” Lisa had taken martial art classes, so defeating Blake wasn’t an issue for her.
However, since he was Callum’s brother and Elspeth’s friend, she didn’t intend to hurt him.Seeing how
stubborn she was, he went up to her and hugged her tightly. “Alright, listen to me. I’m giving you a word
of advice because you seem naive. Go and return the items.”“Don’t touch me! I’m not returning them.”
Hearing that, Blake had no choice but to carry her in his arms, and the sudden sensation of being lifted
startled Lisa. She jerked her shoulders and clutched onto him. It was the first time in 18 years that a
man was carrying her, and it felt rather odd.Blake then entered Elspeth’s room while carrying Lisa in his
arms. Elspeth and Callum were chattering and bantering with each other, and they were so surprised to
see Blake carrying the blushing Lisa in his arms. Their jaws dropped at once.“Both of you have made
great progress!” Hearing that, Blake finally realized that his actions weren’t appropriate and
immediately put Lisa down. Following that, he locked the door, fearing that she would escape.“It’s not
that. She has stolen something.”Elspeth was surprised upon hearing that; based on her understanding
of Lisa’s character, she’d never do something like that. It could be a misunderstanding, but what
caused it?“If you didn’t say that she had stolen something, I would’ve thought you were here to
announce your marriage to each other,” Callum said sarcastically.“That’s not it. She did steal
something…” Blake replied in embarrassment.“I didn’t steal anything.” Lisa was speechless when she
saw how silly he looked. How could there be such an idiotic man? she thought.“I think I know what you
mean. Let me introduce her to you. This is Lisa, my private investigator. She is in charge of
investigating various matters for me, and I was the one who passed those items to her.” Elspeth then
glanced over at Blake and tutted. “I won’t be introducing you. I think she knows who you are at first
glance,” she said.“Of course. I’m pretty famous, after all.” Blake raised his brows. “No, it’s because she
has already run a check on you, including…” Elspeth smiled mysteriously before continuing, “Including
the color of underpants you’re wearing. She knows everything.”“I don’t believe it!” Blake’s expression
turned sour.“You have ten underpants in total, and you’re wearing the pink one today,” Lisa announced
confidently. Blake stared at her with widened eyes, for he couldn’t believe that she knew about it.
Callum, on the other hand, couldn’t contain his laughter upon hearing that.“Don’t laugh at him. She
knows yours too.” Elspeth rolled her eyes at Callum, making the latter speechless as well.“Alright, so
has the problem been solved?” Elspeth glanced at Blake resignedly.“Problem solved. I’m sorry for the
misunderstanding.” Blake felt bad when he realized that he was at fault. When Lisa thought of how silly
he looked when he carried her over to make her surrender, the anger she harbored somehow
disappeared.“It’s fine.”However, Blake felt bad and wanted to make it up to her. “If you’re going
somewhere, I can give you a lift. You can take this as an apology,” he offered.“No, thank you. I have a
car.” Lisa rejected his offer, not wanting to get involved with him.“Don’t worry about it. I’ll give you a
ride.” With that, he grabbed her wrist by force and dragged her out.Meanwhile, as Elspeth watched
them, she rubbed her chin with her finger and asked, “Do you think they will end up together?”“Instead
of being concerned about this, shouldn’t you think about how you’re going to deal with Arthur?” Callum
asked nonchalantly after taking a sip of water.Right, I was so distracted that I almost forgot about
that.After giving the matter some thought, she sighed. “Eric has already taken action against him,
though. I feel that he might do something out of desperation if we do something to him.” Elspeth
thought of letting the matter go.“Don’t worry about that. I’ll help you with it.” Callum smirked. As
Elspeth’s boyfriend, he couldn’t sit well with the fact that some other man was trying to woo her. Thus,
he decided to take care of it.The next day, there was news about a faction within the Alphascape
Group. There seemed to be a problem with a batch of stocks handled by Arthur. Someone used it
against Arthur and claimed that he was the person behind it, causing Arthur to be suspended from his
position.When Elspeth found out about the news, Callum was peeling an orange for her. She instantly
suspected that he had something to do with it. “Did you do it?”“I’m only teaching him a lesson this time
round. He’ll be fine since Dad will get someone to help him. I’ll wait until he stirs something up that
disgusts Dad, and that’s when I’ll take him down.”Is Theodore going to get someone to help him? “You
have a point. After all, Theodore is a nice person. Arthur was ignorant when he insisted on severing
ties with him and even suspected Theodore. Even so, Theodore is still supportive of him.” Elspeth was
furious at the thought of it.“Don’t worry about it. Dad decided to help because Arthur is his son. If Arthur NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
doesn’t appreciate that, he will get a taste of his medicine later on.”Elspeth nodded as she agreed with
Callum. The next moment, a news notification suddenly popped up on her phone, and the headline
read, ‘Son of Oil Magnate Has Fallen for Elspeth. What Will Happen to Callum? Who Will Win the
Girl?’Below the headline were pictures of Elspeth with Eric, as well as another picture of her in Callum’s
arms.Callum narrowed his gaze and was infuriated upon seeing the news. “They sure are ballsy,
stirring up trouble again.”
