Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 125

Chapter 125

“Why do you insist on me going back to the Winthrop Group?”

Being the vice president was equivalent to taking over half of the Winthrop Group. It wasn’t something that he should be joking about. Why would Callum make me such an expensive offer?

He looked at Elspeth with a hint of tenderness. “That’s because I like you. I don’t want you to be so far away

from me.”

He had done his fair share of thinking these days. He might not be able to change Alaina’s position and let Elspeth take over as the director of the Design Department, but he could give Elspeth something better.

“Don’t you mind the way I treat you? Now, let me tell you something. You are the future mistress of Winthrop Group. I can even give you the whole company, so don’t be mad at me anymore, okay?”

As though he had gotten over how upset he had been feeling these days, he let out a long sigh of relief after saying that.

“L”

Elspeth couldn’t utter a reply as she looked at his face.

To be honest, his words were similar to a confession that hit her hard.

What she cared about was her position in his heart and his attitude toward her.

“Alright, Callum.”

She didn’t know what to say, still in a daze.

It seemed that she had been too sensitive.

Callum eventually stopped the car at the gate of the villa. Instead of getting out immediately, he took Elspeth in his arms.

She did not hide this time. As she lay against his chest, she felt his beating heart and caught a whiff of his clean fragrance. She suddenly had an impulse.

She raised her head, revealing her eyes. While she was looking at his exquisite jawline, she suddenly made the bold move of moving across his face and kissing him.

The air was instantly thick with intimacy the moment their lips met.

On the other hand, a fire could be seen burning in his eyes as his gaze dimmed.

By the end of it, Elspeth had turned into a melted puddle in his arms.

Callum gulped with difficulty while he hugged her soft body.

“Go and pack up. We need to go home in time for dinner.”

She obediently nodded in response. Her cheeks were so flushed that she couldn’t wait to get out of the car and let the fresh air calm her down.

She had just walked to the door of her house when she saw a man sitting on the rocking chair outside.

“Jordan?” she called out in surprise when she noticed him in her yard.

He stood up unhurriedly. “You haven’t been home for two days. I thought something happened to you.”

“What are you doing here?”

“Well, the thing is, my rocking chair broke, and I wanted to sit in one. That’s why I… Pardon my intrusion:” He smiled lightly and asked, “I wanted to ask if you would consider working at our company. I can give you everything Callum has given you and more. How does that sound? Do you need time to consider it?”

Just as she was about to shake her head and refuse, Callum appeared out of nowhere, burning with rage as he glared at Jordan’s face. “That is needless worry on your part, Mr. Carr. Elspeth is happy at the Winthrop Group. She doesn’t need to switch to your company.”

“I am asking for Miss Lynwood’s opinion, not yours, Mr. Winthrop. You shouldn’t stick your nose into

someone else’s affairs.”

What Jordan said completely irked Callum, who then pulled Elspeth into his arms with a hint of possessiveness in his eyes. “What if Elspeth is my fiancée now? It shouldn’t be a problem for me to interfere with my fiancée’s interaction with an ill-intentioned man, yes?”

He especially emphasized his description of Jordan. Had Jordan not been a patient man, they would’ve started a fight on the spot.
