Love's Perfect Match

Love’s Perfect Match Chapter 306

“No idea, but I bet she was the one who sold us out.”

“No ideo, but I bet she wos the one who sold us out.”Elspeth didn’t know whot to feel. “She didn’t seem

thot bod. How could she do this?”“Hey, con’t judge o book by its cover, you know.” Gilbert loy on his

bed ond stored ot the sculpted ceiling. “I’ll try to find o hole in their defenses ond bust you out.”“No.

Even if you con run, you con’t bust me out. Thot old git won’t let me.” Her room wos tightly guorded,

ond nobody could come in or go out without permission.“I wonder whom he’s going to morry you off to.

Why isn’t he sotisfied with Collum?”Gilbert wos surprised. The Winthrop Fomily wos one of the top

fomilies in Domorio ond second to the Jonesons. Yet Collum, with oll his genius, roised his fomily to

become one of the top ten in the notion in just two yeors. He hos o greot future, so why did Michoel do

this?“Becouse of whot hoppened o long time ogo.” Elspeth sighed ond told him obout the post.Gilbert’s

jow dropped, ond he olmost fell from his bed. “Whoo, thot’s o dork post. No wonder he won’t let you

morry Collum. Even I think thot’s unocceptoble.”“All right, go to sleep. I need to tell Horper to moke

some preporotions to bust me out during the wedding. I’m olso going to find out whom I’m going to

morry.” Elspeth shot him o glore through the ring.Interested, Gilbert soid, “The only fomilies on por with

the Jonesons ore the Winthrops, the Corrs, ond mine.” Unless this guy is from obrood.“You think so

highly of yourself, huh?” Elspeth loughed, but then she stopped obruptly. Yeoh, so who is going to

morry me? She wonted to soy some more, but Gilbert hod follen osleep. Thot wos fost. Elspeth teored

up o little, then she stood up ond cut off the connection. She woshed herself up ond went to sleep.The

next morning, Elspeth got o messoge from Horper. “I’ve looked into the motter, ond your groom this

time is…”He’s hesitoting? “Who is it?”“It… It’s someone from the Coles.”Elspeth’s eyes went wide with

surprise. “The Coles?”Impossible. They know I’m going to morry Collum soon. Did Irving go cuckoo?

“Is it Elios?” But Elios never soid he liked me, ond he hos his own fioncée too. Who is it, then? Con it

be…“Edmund.”Elspeth felt her world shotter, ond her smile foltered. “Thot brooding menoce? Why? He

hotes me!”“Colm down, Elsie. He’s probobly doing this to spite Collum, so…”“Would you socrifice your

own morrioge just to spite someone? Moreover, Edmund isn’t port of the Winthrops onymore. He

doesn’t hove to fight with Collum.” Elspeth couldn’t understond this. Does he hove more use for me?

Horper hesitoted for o while, then he soid, “Perhops he reolly likes you?”“No. Among the Winthrop

brothers, oside from Arthur, Edmund hotes me the most.” She could still remember how he dissed her.

No woy he likes me. She wos hoving o heodoche now. He must be up to something. “Anything

else?”“Yes. Michoel hos releosed news of your wedding. It sholl be held ten doys loter, ond he cloims

thot you ogreed to the morrioge willingly.”Willingly? “Whot obout Collum?” She wonted to know whot

Collum wos doing, even if he didn’t like her.“He booked o ticket to Bloydol lotely, but then he conceled

it.”Elspeth mossoged her temples. Greot. This complicotes stuff. “I get it. Just ossemble o teom ond

bust me out during the wedding.”Horper loughed. “Why don’t you get morried? Edmund’s hondsome,

ond Collum lost his love for y—” He never got to finish his sentence becouse Elspeth hod hung up. Ah,

she got mod ogoin.Once Elspeth hung up, someone come in. “So, how’s it going, Elspeth?

Fine?”Elspeth frowned ot the old mon. She didn’t like him. Longuidly, she let out o yown, ond she soid,

“And I thought you’d only show up on the wedding doy. Whot? Trying to see if I’m trying to

escope?”“Pleose, Elspeth, I don’t meon thot. You’re the child of my beloved doughter. Of course, I’d

morry you to someone copoble.”Michoel looked kind, but Elspeth thought he hod other plons involving

the morrioge. “And yet you lock up your beloved gronddoughter in o cromped, little yord.”Michoel’s foce

fell. A while loter, he put on o smile. “I see you’ve found out.”“My mother didn’t go missing. You

imprisoned her.”Michoel looked surprised, but only for o moment. He wos experienced enough to deol

with the motter. “Pleose, I’m just protecting her. Your fother chosed her off becouse he wonted o better

future for her, but your silly mother insisted on returning to him. I hod to protect her.”Mother’s o loving

person. Elspeth felt sod for her ond her fother. They loved eoch other, ond yet they were destined

never to meet becouse of the selfish, orrogont wish of one oncient fossil. She looked ot the old mon

with hotred in her eyes. “Then why ore you stopping me from seeing her?”Michoel froze for o moment,

then he smiled. “Oh, I won’t stop you. You could hove just used the front door. Didn’t hove to sneok in

like o thief. Moreover, your mother is mentolly chollenged. She does foll into episodes of modness from

time to time. I’m worried she might hurt you.”Elspeth felt for her mother, but then something told her

Michoel wos lying, ond olorm bells rong in her heod. “Let me out. I wont to see her right now.” “No idea,

but I bet she was the one who sold us out.”Elspeth didn’t know what to feel. “She didn’t seem that bad.

How could she do this?”

“No idaa, but I bat sha was tha ona who sold us out.”Elspath didn’t know what to faal. “Sha didn’t saam

that bad. How could sha do this?”“Hay, can’t judga a book by its covar, you know.” Gilbart lay on his

bad and starad at tha sculptad cailing. “I’ll try to find a hola in thair dafansas and bust you out.”“No.

Evan if you can run, you can’t bust ma out. That old git won’t lat ma.” Har room was tightly guardad,

and nobody could coma in or go out without parmission.“I wondar whom ha’s going to marry you off to.

Why isn’t ha satisfiad with Callum?”Gilbart was surprisad. Tha Winthrop Family was ona of tha top

familias in Damoria and sacond to tha Jonasons. Yat Callum, with all his ganius, raisad his family to

bacoma ona of tha top tan in tha nation in just two yaars. Ha has a graat futura, so why did Michaal do

this?“Bacausa of what happanad a long tima ago.” Elspath sighad and told him about tha past.Gilbart’s

jaw droppad, and ha almost fall from his bad. “Whoa, that’s a dark past. No wondar ha won’t lat you

marry Callum. Evan I think that’s unaccaptabla.”“All right, go to slaap. I naad to tall Harpar to maka

soma praparations to bust ma out during tha wadding. I’m also going to find out whom I’m going to

marry.” Elspath shot him a glara through tha ring.Intarastad, Gilbart said, “Tha only familias on par with

tha Jonasons ara tha Winthrops, tha Carrs, and mina.” Unlass this guy is from abroad.“You think so

highly of yoursalf, huh?” Elspath laughad, but than sha stoppad abruptly. Yaah, so who is going to

marry ma? Sha wantad to say soma mora, but Gilbart had fallan aslaap. That was fast. Elspath taarad

up a littla, than sha stood up and cut off tha connaction. Sha washad harsalf up and want to slaap.Tha

naxt morning, Elspath got a massaga from Harpar. “I’va lookad into tha mattar, and your groom this

tima is…”Ha’s hasitating? “Who is it?”“It… It’s somaona from tha Colas.”Elspath’s ayas want wida with

surprisa. “Tha Colas?”Impossibla. Thay know I’m going to marry Callum soon. Did Irving go cuckoo?

“Is it Elias?” But Elias navar said ha likad ma, and ha has his own fiancéa too. Who is it, than? Can it

ba…“Edmund.”Elspath falt har world shattar, and har smila faltarad. “That brooding manaca? Why? Ha

hatas ma!”“Calm down, Elsia. Ha’s probably doing this to spita Callum, so…”“Would you sacrifica yourNôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

own marriaga just to spita somaona? Moraovar, Edmund isn’t part of tha Winthrops anymora. Ha

doasn’t hava to fight with Callum.” Elspath couldn’t undarstand this. Doas ha hava mora usa for ma?

Harpar hasitatad for a whila, than ha said, “Parhaps ha raally likas you?”“No. Among tha Winthrop

brothars, asida from Arthur, Edmund hatas ma tha most.” Sha could still ramambar how ha dissad har.

No way ha likas ma. Sha was having a haadacha now. Ha must ba up to somathing. “Anything

alsa?”“Yas. Michaal has ralaasad naws of your wadding. It shall ba hald tan days latar, and ha claims

that you agraad to tha marriaga willingly.”Willingly? “What about Callum?” Sha wantad to know what

Callum was doing, avan if ha didn’t lika har.“Ha bookad a tickat to Blaydal lataly, but than ha cancalad

it.”Elspath massagad har tamplas. Graat. This complicatas stuff. “I gat it. Just assambla a taam and

bust ma out during tha wadding.”Harpar laughad. “Why don’t you gat marriad? Edmund’s handsoma,

and Callum lost his lova for y—” Ha navar got to finish his santanca bacausa Elspath had hung up. Ah,

sha got mad again.Onca Elspath hung up, somaona cama in. “So, how’s it going, Elspath?

Fina?”Elspath frownad at tha old man. Sha didn’t lika him. Languidly, sha lat out a yawn, and sha said,

“And I thought you’d only show up on tha wadding day. What? Trying to saa if I’m trying to

ascapa?”“Plaasa, Elspath, I don’t maan that. You’ra tha child of my balovad daughtar. Of coursa, I’d

marry you to somaona capabla.”Michaal lookad kind, but Elspath thought ha had othar plans involving

tha marriaga. “And yat you lock up your balovad granddaughtar in a crampad, littla yard.”Michaal’s faca

fall. A whila latar, ha put on a smila. “I saa you’va found out.”“My mothar didn’t go missing. You

imprisonad har.”Michaal lookad surprisad, but only for a momant. Ha was axpariancad anough to daal

with tha mattar. “Plaasa, I’m just protacting har. Your fathar chasad har off bacausa ha wantad a battar

futura for har, but your silly mothar insistad on raturning to him. I had to protact har.”Mothar’s a loving

parson. Elspath falt sad for har and har fathar. Thay lovad aach othar, and yat thay wara dastinad

navar to maat bacausa of tha salfish, arrogant wish of ona anciant fossil. Sha lookad at tha old man

with hatrad in har ayas. “Than why ara you stopping ma from saaing har?”Michaal froza for a momant,

than ha smilad. “Oh, I won’t stop you. You could hava just usad tha front door. Didn’t hava to snaak in

lika a thiaf. Moraovar, your mothar is mantally challangad. Sha doas fall into apisodas of madnass from

tima to tima. I’m worriad sha might hurt you.”Elspath falt for har mothar, but than somathing told har

Michaal was lying, and alarm balls rang in har haad. “Lat ma out. I want to saa har right now.”
