Love's Perfect Match

Love’s Perfect Match Chapter 292

Elspeth felt embarrassed that she was being stared at. She had taken a look in the mirror earlier. The

dress didn’t match her style, but she thought it was cute.Elias cleared his throat. “Time to go.”Elspeth

nodded and followed him.They went to the villa where Philip resided. The Coles moved abroad back in

the sixties. Aside from Irving and Elias, barely anyone from the Cole Family would go back home. The

moment Elspeth and Elias showed up, the crowd was shocked.“Who is that woman? She’s with Philip’s

most beloved grandson.”“I can’t believe she gets to date someone who was on Sunholde’s famous

science magazine’s cover page at such a young age.”“He’s a genius. The finest of this

generation.”“And he’s never been embroiled in any scandals before. Every family is trying to marry their

daughter to him.”“I’d like to date him, but he doesn’t care about anyone.”Everyone was wondering who

this woman was, and how did she hook up with Elias. Then Elspeth got out of the car and faced

everyone bravely. She held Elias’ arm and entered the hall, the air around her filled with

elegance.Everyone kept quiet. They watched in awe as the perfect couple made their way to the

venue.Elspeth wondered what they were talking about. She turned around, and the moment she did,

one of the guests felt excited. “She was looking at me. Oh my god, I’m blessed. Look at her eyes!

They’re beautiful.”Elspeth stole the hearts of many men the moment she appeared, but that was a story

for another day. Not only were the guests surprised at the appearance of a woman hitherto unknown to

them, Philip too was interested in the commotion.The moment Elspeth entered the hall, a woman in

business professional attire approached her. “Miss Lynwood, Master Philip wishes to speak with you.” This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

There was a hint of guile gleaming in her eyes, and she sounded firm about her request.She’s working

for Uncle Irving’s father as well. And so, Elspeth went with her.Philip wasn’t as weak as she imagined.

He was thin, but he looked energetic. The moment he saw Elspeth, his eyes gleamed. “You look just

like her.” Elspeth was about to ask whom she resembled when then Philip added, “You look just like

your mother.”Mother? “You know my mother, Uncle Philip?”Philip’s eyes glistened. “Know her? Why, we

have history.”Then, he told Elspeth of her mother’s past. She came to Sunholde once when she was

young, and she was a guest at the Cole household. “Your mother was a great woman. I was going to

have her marry my son, but she said she had someone she loved. I couldn’t force her to stay, so I let

her leave. Ah, but fate does love to pull a twist. I adored your mother, and now my son adores you.”The

light of reminiscence filled Philip’s eyes. He looked at Elspeth and extended his hand. Elspeth quickly

held his hand as well. The old man asked, “So, are you interested in marrying Elias?” She looks and

acts just like her mother. No, even more regal, I daresay. I’d love it if she could marry Elias.Elspeth

choked on herself. Why is everyone asking me to marry Elias? Do I look like his girlfriend? She shot

Elias a weird look, but Elias blushed and looked away. Don’t just blush. Explain yourself.Elspeth smiled

awkwardly. “No, Mr. Philip. We’re just friends, and I have a fiancé.”Philip’s face darkened as he shot

Elias a glare. “You’re useless.” Then, he turned to smile at Elspeth. “That’s alright. As long as you’re

not married, then Elias still has a chance. Even if you are married, there’s still a chance of divorce, am I

right?”Elspeth froze. What is with this family? They change moods so fast, and they keep saying things

I don’t understand. This is a bit unacceptable.“Grandpa loves talking nonsense. Just ignore him.” Elias

took a deep breath and smiled. “I’m engaged as well.”Philip sighed. “Don’t talk about her. She refuses

to marry you. She said she has someone she loves, and she’s going to cancel the marriage soon

enough.” Philip looked upset just mentioning the marriage’s cancellation.“Let her. I don’t love her, and

she doesn’t love me.”Philip nodded, and he stopped the conversation. The party was already beginning

so he had to address his guests. Elspeth and Elias went to a corner to have a chat. “I’ve been snooping

around. You’re famous, so what’s up with your fiancée? Why isn’t she interested in you?” Elspeth took

a sip of her tea and smirked.“How should I know? She probably likes someone better than me.” Elias

didn’t care about the woman at all, though he did feel miffed. “I wasn’t the one who proposed the

marriage, but now I have to cancel it myself. It rubs me the wrong way.”“Eh. She probably doesn’t like

you either, so that’s why she’s canceling the whole thing. Oh, you’re a researcher, aren’t you? What are

you researching?” I thought he was a basketball player, but he’s a researcher, huh? Didn’t expect

that.“IR&D. I’m doing my research at NTU.”NTU was a famous educational institution in the world. It

was Sunholde’s most research-oriented university. He’s a brilliant man. Oh, I have an idea. “Do you

want to work with me? I provide the funds, and you provide the brains. Let’s do a project.”“Oh, I don’t

need money.” He didn’t do research for money. The Coles had more money than he could ever

need.“Your family’s money and your money are two different things.” Elspeth kept winking at him.Elias

stared at her smirk, and he thought he should take her up on her offer.All of a sudden, they heard

someone sneer. “I can’t believe some lowly wench is already seducing my fiancé. I haven’t even

canceled the marriage yet.”
