Love’s Perfect Match Chapter 274
Elspeth’s heart skipped a beat.She looked up and realized there was a long line of people waiting to
pass them their gifts, and there was no end in sight. Meanwhile, the people who had presented the gifts
already disappeared into the crowd.She asked the butler beside her anxiously, “Mr. Wade, do you
remember who passed us this gift?”Craig Wade was startled for a moment. The box looked special, so
he remembered who gave them the gift. “It was from a lady in her forties who had a veil over her face.
Why are you asking about it—”Before he could finish his words, Elspeth stood up straight and lifted the
hem of her gown. Then, she dashed out of the place.When everyone saw Elspeth running away, they
were shocked.Even Callum, who had always been calm and collected, turned gloomy.“What is Elspeth NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
doing, Callum? She looks like she’s running away from all this.” Max was astounded by Elspeth’s
action.Callum felt his chest tightening as a sense of unease rose within him.“We have to trust her. Let’s
wait for her return.”It was their engagement day, so Elspeth must be fully aware of the matter’s
seriousness. Since she still decided to go somewhere else, she must have her reasons for doing
so.“Why don’t you run after her? I’m worried she’ll fall into danger.” Max frowned, riddled with
anxiety.Callum nodded and pulled his tie before racing after the woman.Seeing that, everyone at the
venue was astonished. What’s going on?The stars of the engagement party subsequently left the
place. Have they been fooling us just to get our gifts?Many of them started speculating and whispering
among themselves.Left with no choice, Yelena and Max could only face the pressure and appease
everyone. At the same time, they prayed that Elspeth and Callum would come back sooner.…
Meanwhile, after Elspeth left the place, she realized that the gift’s owner was nowhere in
sight.Disappointed, she turned around and was ready to return to the engagement party. All of a
sudden, someone called out to her from behind.“It seems that your mother is truly important to you,
which is why you left the venue in a dazed state.”Elspeth felt her back stiffen. She turned around and
stared at Arthur. All of a sudden, she had a premonition.Arthur never appeared again after Eric taught
him a lesson previously.Elspeth initially thought that he had learned his lesson, so she was surprised to
realize that he had discovered one of her weaknesses.“What are you trying to say?”“Haven’t you been
curious about your mother’s condition? I’m here to give you a clue.”Arthur smiled faintly. If Elspeth
hadn’t seen him acting ruthlessly before, she would’ve thought that he was a pushover.“What is the
clue?”Arthur spread his hands. “Haven’t I already given it to you? I tried very hard to get the necklace.
Doesn’t it belong to your mother?”Elspeth balled up her fists, but she never let her emotions show on
her face. With a grim expression, she questioned, “Where did you get this necklace?”“Well… Haha. It
took me a lot of effort to get it. Do you want to know?”“Stop keeping me on tenterhooks.” Elspeth
cracked her knuckles as though trying to threaten him. “Tell me straight away if you’re tactful.
Otherwise, don’t blame me for being harsh on you.”Instead of getting frightened, Arthur laughed
arrogantly. “Come on, then. If you dare beat me up, you’ll never find any information about your
mother.” Arthur was confident that Elspeth wouldn’t dare to make a move on him, so he was at
ease.“What do you want, then?”It had come to a point where Elspeth no longer needed to be polite with
him.“Don’t you know what I want?” Arthur looked at her and put on an inscrutable smile. “Break up with
Callum, and I’ll tell you everything.”Elspeth put on a comical expression. “You have lost the right to
inherit the Winthrop Family’s wealth. What’s the point of you making me break up with Callum?”“You’ll
never get it. I hate Callum. As long as you break up with him, he’ll be downcast. I love seeing him
suffer, and I’ll be pleased that way.”When Arthur envisioned Callum looking miserable after the
breakup, he felt thrilled.“If that’s your plan, forget it. I won’t agree to it.”She wasn’t in a rush to look for
her mother.At any rate, she wouldn’t want to affect her relationship with Callum for a so-called clue.Just
as she was ready to leave, Arthur broke another piece of shocking news to her. “Your mother is in
danger. Don’t you want to know where she is?”Elspeth’s face fell. “How do you know?”“Hahaha, I said
that I’ll only tell you everything after you break up with Callum.”Elspeth hung her head low as a hint of
hesitation flashed across her eyes.“Don’t listen to his nonsense, Elspeth.”The moment Callum arrived,
he saw Arthur trying to brainwash Elspeth.How dare Arthur try to make Elspeth break up with me?! Is
he sick of living?Callum’s gaze darkened as he looked coldly at Arthur.“Callum.” Upon the man’s
arrival, Elspeth stood beside him and lowered her head meekly. “I didn’t mean to run away. I just
discovered a trace that might lead me to find my mother.”Fortunately, Elspeth didn’t fall into Arthur’s
trap. Otherwise, she would’ve been caught red-handed by Callum.“Don’t worry. I understand.” Callum
stroked her head and motioned for her to calm down.“Haha. I knew you wouldn’t—”“I’ll punish you
when we get home.” Callum directly announced that she was guilty.Elspeth was petrified, thinking that
the man wouldn’t let her off easily this time.“You’re here as well, Callum. What a coincidence.” Arthur
wasn’t afraid at all. Perhaps he now had a powerful backer, so he was more confident.Callum hummed
and said, “Arthur, if you dare lure Elspeth out again like this and play any tricks, I’ll dump you at the
downtown of Damoria instead of just any road.”Arthur didn’t expect Callum to mock him by bringing up
the humiliating incident back then.As such, his expression turned gloomy at once.It was the most
humiliating thing that ever happened to him.At that time, he was stripped bare and dumped onto a
street. The passers-by criticized him for being shameless. Regardless of how hard he tried, he could
barely conceal his private parts. He would never want to experience that again in his life.How dare you,
Callum?!“Callum, since you’ve said such things, I won’t tell you anything about Elspeth’s mother.”He
wasn’t a pushover. Since he was humiliated in such a way, he had to defend his dignity.“Whatever. We
don’t need your help finding Elspeth’s mother.”Callum turned to Elspeth and said calmly, “Let’s go back.
Everyone is waiting for us at the engagement party.”
