Love's Perfect Match

Love’s Perfect Match Chapter 275

Elspeth was caught in a dilemma.On one hand, she had a concrete lead about her mother; on the

other, there was the engagement party that they had prepared for a long time.As such, she kept quiet

and lowered her eyes.“See, Callum? Elspeth’s torn apart. Stop interfering with her decision.” Arthur

raised a brow since he was certain that Elspeth would choose him.“Callum, I really want to figure out

that lead…” She had an uneasy expression on her face. “Can you give me some time to find out more

before we return to the ceremony?”Callum couldn’t bear to look at her dainty expression and let out a

chuckle. “I got it. It doesn’t need to be so complicated. Come with me to the engagement party, and I’ll

get my men to interrogate him.”Arthur’s smile gradually disappeared. What? Are they going to proceed

with the engagement party while I get interrogated? This is a joke!He raised his arm, and a few burly

men came out from behind him. “I wanted to play nice, but you’ve left me with no choice!”It didn’t

matter if Callum and Elspeth were good fighters. He wasn’t afraid of them with the number of men he

brought with him.“Go! Catch them!”“Arthur, bring your men and have tea with Blake.” Callum wasn’t

overly nervous and waved his hands confidently. With that, a bunch of people also showed up behind

him.A sense of dread climbed up Arthur’s back.“It’s an even matchup, Callum. Are you sure you want

to fight? It’s hard to tell who the last one standing will be.”Elspeth smiled as that wasn’t the case at all.

“Come on out.”At the end of her order, another group of people appeared out of nowhere.Shocked,

Arthur wondered who those people were. They were so well hidden that even his men couldn’t sense

their presence!“Now, are we still even?”Elspeth looked lazily at Arthur and snickered as she saw the

blood draining from his face. “Be more prepared the next time you’re trying to catch someone, Arthur. It

must feel terrible to have this backfire on you.”Arthur’s heart dropped. He was done for this time.“Let

the boys play, Callum. We should head back to the engagement party.” Elspeth didn’t want to waste

time there since they had the upper hand with the number of men they had, especially since her men

were top-notch experts who had gone through vigorous training. As such, Arthur’s men probably

wouldn’t last long.Callum nodded and ordered his men, “I want him alive. The rest don’t matter.”The

strength they used would decide if the men would live or die.Arthur panicked after Callum and Elspeth

left. There were too many of them, and he was going to die there.As he was thinking, both parties

started fighting. He ran to the side and attempted to get away amidst the chaos.In the next second,

Elspeth’s men noticed him and grabbed his collar.“Let me go! I’ll give you the money. I’ll give you lots of

money!”That man snorted. “We serve them, not money. I’ll crush you if you continue using money to

insult us.”Since Elspeth only needed Arthur alive, it didn’t matter if he was hurt or not.“You! How much Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

did Elspeth give you? I’ll give you double!”Seeing that Arthur still didn’t get the memo, the man slapped

him. “How many times have I told you?! Unless you’re also one of the leaders of Evil Wind Sect, we are

only loyal to her!”“E-Evil Wind Sect?” Arthur had heard of this group, but he never thought that she was

involved in it.“That’s enough. You’re too talkative—even more than Miss Elspeth.” That man dug his

ears annoyingly as he got ready to tie Arthur up.Suddenly, a few shadows appeared out of nowhere

with better skills than them.The man was alarmed, and he asked his people to be cautious while

guarding Arthur since he was the hostage.However, it seemed that those people weren’t there to fight;

they were there to take Arthur away, and their gazes landed on the man being held captive.Everyone

was on high alert at the sudden appearance of the fourth group of people.The people who showed up

did not stall. They hurled a smoke bomb and fogged the area.When the rest managed to open their

eyes, the people were gone along with Arthur.“Quick! Report to Miss Elspeth!”“She’s at the

engagement party, though. We shouldn’t disturb her, right?”“Go after them, then. One of you will stay

back and inform her when the engagement party is over.”…When Elspeth and Callum returned, the

chaotic hall suddenly became quiet.Some of them were disappointed as they thought things would go

south. They put on gloomy faces when they saw that Elspeth and Callum’s expressions were normal as

if nothing had happened.Max and Yelena, on the other hand, were finally relieved.This was their first

time taking the lead, so it was fortunate that nothing went wrong.“Alright. Everyone is here. Let’s start.”

Callum’s voice was filled with a tenderness that had never been heard before.Elspeth nodded.

Suddenly, a burst of laughter could be heard from the door before she said anything. It sounded like

Eric’s voice.She turned her head around and saw him standing at the door. He was late, but Elspeth

frowned at the person who was with him.Emma?It seemed that Emma was also unhappy with the

situation. Eric had told her that he would bring her to an event to help her reappear before the public’s

eyes. In the end, it turned out to be Elspeth’s engagement party.If she had known earlier, she would

have dressed up more to take Elspeth’s limelight and relieve her anger!“I don’t suppose I’m late, am I?”

Eric placed his present aside while speaking gently.“Of course not. If you were any later, you would be

joining the baby shower.”Eric raised a brow at that. That was quite typical of Elspeth.“Anyway, it’s good

that you’re here, but why did you bring an outsider with you?” Elspeth tilted her chin up with a playful

smile. “I don’t remember inviting Miss Walker, though?”Emma never expected Elspeth to disrespect her

like that, especially in front of everyone else.“What do you mean? You should be honored that I’m

here!” Emma was afraid of garnering too much attention and lowered her voice despite being

proud.“Honor? Emma, you know very well if your presence is appreciated or not. You’re not welcome

here. Please leave.”Elspeth’s tone was sharp, and it seemed as though she wanted to throw Emma out

immediately.At the same time, she shot daggers at Eric.However, he touched his nose as laughter filled

his eyes. He wasn’t afraid of her.“Alright, I was the one who brought her here. Let it go.”Her tone

changed. “You brought my fiancé’s ex-girlfriend to my engagement party. What are you thinking? I

know that you foreigners don’t care about such things, but since you’re here, please respect my

culture.”Elspeth was infuriated, and her gaze turned icy.
