Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128

Elspeth was flustered by his words and didn’t know what to say.

“That is why I want to be with you as sooner as possible. After we are engaged, you won’t escape from me anymore.”

At that moment, Elspeth found an opportunity to escape his embrace. Then, she asked Callum, “Do you still remember what I told you, Callum?”

Hearing her words, Callum knew what she meant and didn’t force her. “You told me to court you before we can be together.”

“That’s right. I think a good relationship starts with us getting to know each other. Only then will we know whether we are suitable for each other or not. Do you understand, Callum?”

Callum nodded and said, “Yes, I do. That’s why I won’t force you.”

“Thank you.” Elspeth finally smiled. “Pleased to meet you, my future boyfriend.”

Just as she reached out her hand so they could have a handshake to make peace, she was pulled into his embrace.

“I’ll be waiting for you,” said Callum. Then, he kissed her on the lips softly but firmly.

Even after returning to her room, Elspeth could still feel the kiss on her lips. For the whole night, she was restless, which caused her to wake up late the next morning.

After she got up, she was about to go down when she heard a heated argument from downstairs. She came down and saw that Theodore was furious. “What’s wrong, Mr. Winthrop?” Elspeth couldn’t help but ask.

Theodore seemed mad as he slammed his hand against the table and shouted on the phone, “Get back home immediately, Arthur!”

Arthur is always calm and gentle to others. Why is Mr. Winthrop so angry? Elspeth thought.

Before she could have the time to think it through, she heard Arthur’s voice on the phone. “You don’t have to care about me, Dad. After all, you only see Callum as your son. Hence, why do you care about me?”

“What the f*ck are you talking about, Arthur? This is your last warning. Come home this instance!”

“Okay. I’ll be back in a second,” Arthur replied faintly. It seemed like he still listened to Theodore. Seeing Theodore shaken up with fury, Elspeth quickly soothed his chest to help him breathe.

“It’s alright, Mr. Winthrop. Maybe it is a misunderstanding…”

Hearing her words, Theodore widened his eyes and said, “A misunderstanding? Do you know what he did, Elsie? He sold the hospital just today! If it weren’t for the bodyguards, I wouldn’t have known since he wanted to keep it a secret from me! Moreover, he has joined the Alphascape Group! Do you know what this means? The Alphascape Group and Winthrop Group have never been on good terms; he is going against us!” Theodore couldn’t stand straight after he finished his words. He sat down and drank some water to soothe his anger

Never did Elspeth expect Arthur to make such a sudden move.
