Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 32

Chapter 32 She’s Just an Outsider

The woman’s face turned ghastly pale. “I—”

Elspeth didn’t lose her composure despite her ire as she continued all smiles, “Miss, I hope that you have sufficient evidence before questioning others next time.”

The camera flash blinded the scene at this moment as the reporters snapped photos of Elspeth. The news about Elspeth being the renowned jewelry designer Angel was far more interesting than Elspeth’s plagiarism!

Nevertheless, she didn’t forget the reason behind the press conference as she changed the subject, “This set of jewelry is a couple’s model. ‘First Sight’, which is targeted toward our male audience, symbolizes love at first sight. Meanwhile, ‘First Love’, which is their counterpart for our lovely ladies, symbolizes ever-lasting love. So, they are perfect gifts for couples.”

The press conference ended successfully. Nonetheless, that night, Winthrop Group’s official website once again announced that all the jewelry was sold out.

The comment section of the social media website began to be lively again.

‘Oh my gosh! Why did I hesitate?! I even doubted the jewelry’s copyright issue! This is Angel’s product, and I didn’t buy it!’

‘Me too! I didn’t manage to buy them. Winthrop Group, please sell the product quickly! My wife said she will divorce me if I can’t buy it!’

As Callum read the news and comments, he was astonished at the revelation. It had never crossed his mind that Elspeth was actually Angel.

He acknowledged the number of bizarre things that she had accomplished previously, but then, she appeared to be Nancy, and now Angel… She was really an inscrutable woman.

Both of them returned home later than usual due to work-related matters. Therefore, it was already 1.00AM when they finally returned home. Unfortunately, they were so swamped with work that neither of them had dinner. As a result, Elspeth’s stomach grumbled in protest. “I’m going to make some quick supper. Do you want some?”

“Yes.” Callum thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

After a while, she came bearing two sandwiches with a sunny-side-up on the side.

The sandwich looked rather bland and simple. However, when he took a bite, he was surprised as it was quite delicious. “I didn’t know that you could cook.”

She tilted her chin proudly. “Hah! There’s plenty you don’t know about me.”

“How many more identities do you really have?” His tone carried a hint of genuine curiosity as he asked.

She was taken aback by his blunt questioning for a moment before she laughed out loud. “Do you even realize that you have been caring about me way more than you used to? Tell me honestly. You like me, don’t you?”

Elspeth couldn’t see his expression clearly, but she could hear a sense of chagrin in his voice. “I’m just a little curious.”

He was indeed a little curious, but even more so, he wanted to know more about her. She seemed to have a unique charm that had succeeded in luring him toward her.

Before she could tease him, someone suddenly turned on the lights at the staircase. Arthur, who was in pajamas, stood at the end of the stairs and looked at them with a cheeky smile. “Callum, Elspeth, why aren’t you guys going to bed yet?”

His implication was apparent. He was teasing them for flirting in the middle of the night.

Callum suppressed the complex emotions under his eyes and blurted behind false bravado, “I’m going to bed. Don’t stay up too late.”

After he left, Arthur walked to her and asked, “Do you like Callum?”

She did not answer his question as she simply looked at him and remarked, “You’re quite the gossiper.”
