Love’s Perfect Match Chapter 296

Elspeth bit her lip. “I think he’s going to remember me eventually.” His love for me is real. I wouldn’t

lose him forever.Elias sneered, his gaze fixed on Callum. For some reason, he wasn’t his usual

sunshine self and he hissed like a snake, “You know you’ll only suffer if you stay with him. He doesn’t

love you. Even if he remains with you, all he’ll give is the bare minimum. Ask him.”Callum really wanted

to call this guy Edmund, but he held it back. They might look the same, but their personalities were NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

vastly different, and the way they carried themselves differed as well. At first, Callum was mad that

Elias was berating him, but he couldn’t get mad at someone who looked just like his brother. “I’ll do my

best to work with you,” he said coolly.He’ll… do his best… to work with me? All the color was drained

from Elspeth’s face. She looked even worse than Callum was. “I see. You should rest now.” She turned

around and left.Elias shot Callum an icy look. “She came all the way here to save your worthless life.

You let her down, and I’m coming after you, Callum.” Then, Elias chased after Elspeth.Elspeth ran all

the way to the garden. She took a deep breath, the sense of helplessness grasping her heart, and she

felt like crying. The sun was glaring down at her mercilessly as if judging her for her incompetence. In

the end, Elspeth couldn’t hold it in anymore and burst into tears.When Elias caught up to her, she was

crouched on the ground, all curled up and shivering. It made his heart hurt, and he approached her.

“Don’t cry.” He bent over and patted her shoulder. “It’s not worth it.”Elspeth sniffled. Adamantly, she

said, “I’m not crying. The sun’s too scorching hot. It was hurting my eyes.”Elias knew it was a lie, but he

didn’t expose it. He didn’t want to remind her of that awful encounter, so he pulled her up and said with

a light chuckle, “Alright, stop crying. You don’t like the sun, so we’ll get some shade. If you’d like, you

can date me. I’m tons better than Callum. He’s as cold as the tundra. You should come to me. I’m warm

and fuzzy.”He thinks really highly of himself, huh? Feeling a little comforted, Elspeth smiled. “Alright,

stop messing around. I know you’re trying to cheer me up, but there’s no need for that.”Elias patted her.

“You’re going to take me to Edmund, aren’t you? You don’t have to think about the guy anymore. He’s

not worth it.” Elias was starting to nag.Elspeth burst into laughter, and she agreed.Edmund took over

the company in Callum’s absence. When Elspeth and Elias arrived at the company, Edmund was

working. He was in a suit, and a grim look filled his eyes. Obviously, he was not in a good mood. When

he saw Elspeth, he smiled and was about to say hi, but then he saw the man beside her. The look on

his face turned into one of horror. He looks just like me! I can’t believe this. Am I seeing my

doppelganger? He froze for a moment, then he asked, “You are…”“Hello, Edmund. I’m Elias. Elias

Cole.” I don’t know any Elias. So, he’s a different person. Feeling better, Edmund said, “You look just

like me.”Elias wasn’t as horrified when he saw Edmund, though he was surprised. “Perhaps we’re

twins?”“Impossible. I am a Winthrop. There’s no way we are twins.” Edmund lost his composure. His

smile was wiped away and replaced by disbelief.“I didn’t believe it at first either, but then I talked to

Elspeth and your mother, and it planted doubt in my heart. If we can’t be sure of the truth, we might

have to do a DNA test. Once the results are out, we’ll know if we’re twins or if this is just a beautiful

misunderstanding.”Elias made a good point. Even Elspeth nodded.Edmund frowned. He mused over

his options and agreed to the suggestion after some hesitation. Just then, he noticed the tear stains on

Elspeth’s cheeks, and he asked, “What happened? I’ve never seen you cry. Did someone hurt you?” he

joked, though there was real worry in his voice.“It’s nothing.” Elspeth didn’t want to answer the

question.However, Elias didn’t want to let it go. “Nothing? Callum forgot all about your love. Your

relationship. If you weren’t so sure that he had forgotten about your love, I would’ve thought he was

actually acting all this time! Why, he looked like he was going to break up with you.”Edmund didn’t

expect that. He was going to ask if Callum was awake, but not only did he get the answer to that

question, but he also found out about something else. Yet this wasn’t a bad thing for Edmund. If Callum

had lost his love for Elspeth, then… I can court her again. The feelings he had locked up were bursting

forth again.Edmund smiled. “Don’t worry about it. It’s boring talking about him. So what if he has

forgotten about you? You still have a lot of men to choose from.”Stop teasing me. Elspeth shot him a

murderous look. “Stop it. Let’s do the DNA test now. Once the results are out, you can see

Callum.”Edmund would love to go, but he couldn’t. “I have a meeting to attend regarding the company’s

future development plans. The whole company has been in chaos since Callum fell into a coma and

missed the BOD meetings. I’m going mad with work. I have to deal with the tenured guys and calm the

workers down at the same time.”Huh. That does take up a lot of time. Elspeth cocked her eyebrow.

“So, they’re making a scene again?”Fury glinted in Edmund’s eyes. “I think someone’s fanning the

flames. They’re trying to sow discord among us.” He didn’t say who it was, but everyone knew.“It’s not

like the company has fallen. I can’t believe Arthur would go so far.” Elspeth’s eyes glowed with fury, and

she sneered. “I’m joining the shareholder meeting this time. I own a quarter of the total shares of the

company. I have the right to call the shots, don’t I?”“You do, but if they try to come after you…”Elspeth

stood up as her smile disappeared. “I’m going to smoke the mole out. Just because Callum isn’t here

doesn’t mean they own the place.”
