Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 342

Elspeth was aware that Callum was too stubborn and stuck persistently to his beliefs, and that continuing to argue with him held no meaning, so she let out a helpless sigh. “But if you do this, Rayan will not easily hand the scimitar over.”

Seeming to realize that he had been a little too harsh, Callum softened his expression and reached out to rub her hair. “Okay, don’t worry about this anymore. He’ll definitely give me the scimitar.”

It was no longer relevant whether Rayan was willing to hand it over or not; his father would not easily give up this opportunity to push the Adler Family to greater heights.

“All right.” Elspeth sighed. “That’s all we can do for now.”

While the two conversed downstairs, unbeknownst to them, Rayan, who had just been locked upstairs by his father, had witnessed everything. As he watched their intimate gestures, the suspicion in his gaze intensified.

Just then, his phone rang. After a glance at the unknown string of numbers, he decided to pick up.

“Is this Mr. Adler? I heard that you’re currently with a woman called Lynwood. Is that true?” As soon as he answered the phone, the caller hastily questioned him about his relationship with Elspeth.

Rayan was already frustrated enough as his woman was about to leave with another man. When he heard a strange woman chattering on the phone, his irritation increased.

“What does that have to do with you?”

Upon hearing that that was the case, the woman on the other end didn’t seem to mind his hostile tone, and there was even a trace of glee in her voice as she said, “If that’s the case, I’ll tell you a secret.”

The word ‘secret’ piqued Rayan’s curiosity. “What secret?”

“The secret is that… Elspeth is approaching you for a reason!”

Rayan’s gaze darkened. “What do you mean?”

“Did she ask you for that scimitar? Don’t be fooled by her. She has a fiancé, and his name is Callum Winthrop! She approached you just for the purpose of getting that scimitar of yours, not to be with you.”

Rayan glanced at the two people who were still clinging onto each other downstairs once again. Coupled with what the person on the other end of the phone just told him, he suddenly had a realization. How dare they join forces to try and swindle me! Instantly, he burned with rage.

“Since she’s already lied to you, you must not forgive her easily.” Over the phone, a trace of urgency could be heard in the woman’s voice.

Rayan scoffed. “Naturally. I have my own ways of dealing with women like her.”

“Of course, I believe that you’ll make her pay.”

Listening to the pleased laughter through the phone, Rayan suddenly asked in interest, “Who are you? Why are you telling me this?”

All of a sudden, the voice on the other end lost its enthusiasm. “Who I am isn’t important. Just know that I’m like you, and I hate that cunning woman too.”

He didn’t mind either way. Since she told him about this, it didn’t really matter who she was. Once he hung up, Rayan began to contemplate his next step. How dare they try to trick me? Just wait and see, Elspeth Lynwood!

…

Early the next morning, Elspeth was still sleeping when she was woken up by a phone call. When she fished out her phone and looked at it, Callum’s name was taking up the screen. After questioning him, she learned that he had already brought the scimitar, and was now waiting for her to head downstairs to get it. Immediately, her spirits were lifted, and she hurriedly changed her clothes and went downstairs.
