Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 152

Chapter 152

“The CEO of Azure Corporation.”

Elspeth’s subordinate declared coolly after noticing everyone’s shocked expressions.

Azure Corporation? Isn’t that the company that burst onto the scene and became one of the top three companies in the country in just two years? And she is the CEO of Azure Corporation? Isn’t that a little too unbelievable?

As Callum stared at Elspeth, who had an aura of complete confidence and assuredness, his mind began to wander.

He recalled the way she came to his office a week ago to discuss her departure from the company.

“I suspect something’s wrong with Emma, but I don’t know whether or not you believe me since she shares quite a resemblance with your first love.”

Her voice was reserved as she spoke, but he could see the insecurity in her eyes.

His heart panged as he realized that he had neglected her feelings.

“I trust you.”

Elspeth’s eyes lit up slightly. “Why?”

“You’re the one I like now, so I trust you.” Callum sighed. “In any case, that was all in the past. I stopped caring about her a long time ago.”

What he cared about was how abruptly the relationship ended. He merely agonized over the fact that his feelings had been for nothing. In truth, he didn’t miss his first love in any way.

“By the way, here’s a word of advice. You should look into Emma’s past. Perhaps you’ll find something useful.”

“Since you’re not going to protect her, then everything won’t go wrong.” Elspeth seemed a lot more confident now as she smiled and asked, “I have a plan. Care to hear it?”

“Go on.”

“I think Emma’s goal is to drive a wedge between us and use that to bring about a crisis in the Winthrop Group. Why don’t we go along with it and act as if we’re fighting?”

Callum was willing to go along with the plan, but a thought flashed across his mind, causing him to frown. “But doing this is incredibly risky. We’d have to elevate Emma’s position. What if she does something that’ll harm the company?”

Elspeth had already accounted for all the possibilities. “Don’t worry. When the time comes, I’ll resign so that she can carry out her plan to its fullest. You don’t have to worry about the losses the company might incur. No matter how much it is, I have a way of covering it.”

So, her solution was to expose her identity as the CEO of Azure Corporation. If she’s Azure’s CEO, then her promise to turn the tides wasn’t a lie. Callum’s eyes flashed smugly. He had been right—she was indeed Azure Corporation’s CEO. After all, she arranged for someone to enter Luminous Entertainment with great ease, and even the vice president of Azure Corporation treated her with courtesy.

However, the others who were present didn’t believe this, especially Emma.

“Elspeth, even if you don’t want to take responsibility for this, you shouldn’t come up with such a blatant lie. Your reputation would be ruined when your lie’s exposed.”

It was as if Emma was giving her advice out of concern, but in reality, she was merely trying to tell everyone that Elspeth was just faking it.

The others snapped out of their dazes as their minds cleared at once.

How could Elspeth be the CEO of Azure Corporation? If she was, then why would she have worked diligently at Winthrop Group? Wouldn’t she have just stayed as the CEO of Azure?

“It’s not up to you to declare whether or not it’s a lie.”

Emma dropped all pretense of niceties as she flashed a cold smile. “Show us something that proves you’re the CEO of Azure Corporation, then.”

“What if I am?”
