Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 232

Chapter 232

Moriah immediately put on an aggrieved expression when she saw Callum.

Callum has had quite a nice impression on me previously. He wouldn’t detest me for no reason if it weren’t for Elspeth!

If I beg him for mercy, perhaps he will sympathize with me.

“Cal, I… I was framed by this woman. You have to seek justice for me!”

She then pretended to cry, which stunned Callum.

When did I ever have such a close relationship with this woman?

Elspeth looked at Callum’s expression and knew exactly what he was thinking. Thus, she couldn’t control herself from bursting out in laughter.

“Why are you laughing?”

Moriah was still in the dark, but she still stubbornly argued, “Do you really believe that Cal will listen to you just because you’ve been with him for a while? I’ll have you know that Cal is a man of principle! He won’t be fooled by you!”

Callum, however, looked at Moriah and said in an icy cold voice, “To me, Elspeth is my principle.”

Moriah’s expression immediately changed to one of defeat.

“How can you help Elspeth bully me, Cal? I’ve known you longer than she has. How can you be so nice to a woman you’ve only just met?”

Moriah couldn’t understand what Callum was thinking and she was overwhelmed with jealousy.

She never loved Callum because she knew that Callum was completely out of her league. He was someone distinguished and inviolable; no one would ever be worthy of him.

But he was now someone’s boyfriend! It was impossible for Moriah to not be jealous.

“Callum, do you both know each other very well?” Elspeth abruptly asked.

Callum quickly walked to her side and wrapped one of his hands around her waist, saying, “Of course not.”

“No? Cal, have you forgotten that you’ve previously hugged me—”

Before Moriah could finish her sentence, she felt Callum’s cold glare on her, making her embarrassed to continue further.

Such a stare from him sent chills down her spine.

“Pray tell, when did I ever hug you?”

Moriah was at a loss for words.

Indeed, it wasn’t a hug. It was just that she had a heat stroke and Arthur had handed her to Callum. She could never forget Callum’s disgusted expression at the time and how he quickly went to wash his hands without any hesitation after putting her down.

Elspeth leisurely yawned as she drawled, “If there’s nothing else, we shall get going. Moriah, you can go look for the director if you have anything to say.”

The director…

Moriah gritted her teeth when she heard that. Elspeth was the one who requested the director to force Moriah to resign, so there was no way the director would help her now.

But Elspeth was no longer interested in continuing the conversation.

At that point, a few people dressed as workers walked in. Elspeth instructed, “Remove the heater. After all, I was the one who bought it, and I don’t want the hospital to have it.”

Moriah’s jaw dropped when she heard this. What a stingy woman!

“Oh, Miss Oliver, the heater stopped functioning while you were in charge. The director said that if I take my heater away, you will have to pay for a new one.”

Moriah was so enraged that her teeth almost broke from her grinding them together. “Elspeth Lynwood!”

“There’s no use in saying my name. You should start thinking about how to pay for that without an income.”

With that, Elspeth then smiled at Moriah before waving to the workers for them to leave with her.

Callum also took a look at Moriah and asked her to behave herself before he left.

Moriah was the only one left in the ward as she stood there motionless.
