Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 245

Chapter 245

Very quickly, the couple exited the dressing room, and the actress with the missing bracelet heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Elspeth behaving as though nothing had happened. Looks like Lynwood isn’t planning on pursuing the matter.

Lo and behold, Elspeth scanned the room and monotoned, “Who was it that was desperately looking for their bracelet just now?”

In an instant, the actress froze as chills ran down her spine.

No one said a word, and the atmosphere quickly turned awkward.

At that, Elspeth ambled to the actress’ side and smiled as she looked at the latter’s fair, delicate face. “Why don’t you tell us what bracelet it is?”

The actress’ countenance turned awful at once. “It was an accident, Miss Lynwood. The bracelet is something my maternal grandmother left me. I-I was just so desperate to retrieve it. I didn’t mean to do that to you.”

With the way she put it, it became as though Elspeth was unforgiving.

At that, the latter smirked. “It looks like I’ve misread the situation, then. What’s your name?”

Seeing that Elspeth decided not to pursue the issue further, the actress breathed a sigh of relief and answered, “I’m Joy Dowan, Miss Lynwood.”

“Joy Dowan…” Elspeth nodded thoughtfully. “It’s a nice name.”

“Thank you, Miss Lynwood.” Smiled Joy as she thought Elspeth wanted to get familiar with her. “I like your name better.”

“Well, even the daughter of Dowan Enterprise’s CEO has joined the film industry.”

Joy would always behave like a diva on set because of her social status, and now, seeing that Elspeth pointed it out, she naively thought that the former wanted to win her favor, so she hurriedly answered, “It’s thanks to my family’s support that I can pursue my acting dream without worry.”

With that, she glanced at Elspeth. Seeing that the latter remained unruffled, she added, “Also, it’s fortunate I became an actress that I get to personally see you in action.”

It became apparent that the young Dowan was sucking up to Elspeth, and those who normally weren’t on friendly terms with Joy rolled their eyes one after another. What an *ss kisser!

However, a chuckle escaped Elspeth as she exposed the young woman. “But… I have gotten the chance to chat with Mr. Dowan over some tea in the past. How come he has never mentioned anything about the passing of his beloved wife’s mother?”

Her words rendered everyone in the space stumped.

“I…” Little did Joy think Elspeth was familiar with the situation at home.

At that, she chuckled awkwardly and feigned genuineness. “M-My mistake. It was my paternal grandmother. Yes, it was her.”

“Is that so?” Elspeth didn’t answer her directly but pulled her laptop out and retrieved information on the Dowans and other various details; even Joy’s horoscope and whatnot were stated in detail.

“It seems that Mr. Dowan’s mother is still around. Does this mean that you’re wishing for your grandmothers’ deaths, Miss Dowan?”

Joy was dumbfounded, and she had nothing more to say when her fig leaf had been removed.

She had so naively believed Elspeth wanted to pull her to her side and befriend her. Who had thought the woman was only finding the right time to expose her?!
