Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 360

Chapter 360 Return to Damoria

Due to the sleeping pill’s strong effects, it wasn’t until late morning the next day that Elspeth awakened.

The moment she got out of bed, she recalled that Isabel didn’t ask her for the ointment. As such, she took it out from a drawer and headed to Isabel’s room.

After knocking on the door for a while, she realized no one respond to her.

Isabel isn’t in her room, and there is no noise from downstairs. After giving it some thought, she decided to go to Helena’s room.

However, she received no response from Helena either as she knocked on the door.

Realizing that something was off, she opened the door and saw that the room was empty, as though no one had ever stayed there before.

In an instant, she panicked.

Then, she dashed toward Isabel’s room and forcefully opened the door, only to see another empty room.

Did they disappear overnight?

Arthur had left for work pretty early on. He hadn’t been concerned with what was going on at home recently. When he received Elspeth’s call, he was in the midst of a meeting.

“Where are my mom and Isabel?”

Elspeth directly cut to the chase.

“I’m in the middle of a meeting, so don’t bother me for now. Where else could they go? They’re probably in a mall or something.”

Arthur felt that Elspeth was being dramatic. Someone urged him to explain the proposal just then, so he directly hung up the call.

However, Elspeth felt that things were more complicated than they seemed.

After the call ended, she could only wait at home patiently.

Perhaps Arthur is right. They’re just walking around in a mall or something. I should wait for their return.

However, they were still nowhere in sight in the afternoon.

Only then did Elspeth realize the severity of the matter. She quickly asked someone to look for them. Nonetheless, since she was in a foreign country, it was difficult for her to do so. A long time later, she still hadn’t found them.

She tried to recall what had happened in the past few days, but she still couldn’t think of any reasons that prompted them to leave.

Nevertheless, as she thought about what happened the day before, an idea formed in her mind.

Arthur has probably taken them away to force me to marry him.

At the thought of this, she hailed a cab and headed to his company.

Arthur was dealing with some documents when she arrived. Seeing how she was furiously questioning him, he was startled.

He had seen Elspeth getting mad, but it was his first time seeing the woman losing control.

“What happened?”

“Where are you hiding my mom and Isabel?”

Arthur laughed in exasperation. “Why would I hide them?”

“Stop pretending. Apart from you, who else would take them away?” Elspeth sneered. “You’re doing this to force me to marry you.”

“Am I such a despicable person in your eyes?” The smile on Arthur’s face disappeared as he put on a gloomy expression.

His gaze was dark and inscrutable. His figure seemed to be giving off a cold vibe.

Elspeth was stunned. Although Arthur had a reason to do such a thing, it was unnecessary for him to do so.

If he wanted to force Elspeth to do anything, he just had to threaten her by not treating her mother.

Suddenly, Elspeth thought of something else.

The image of Isabel looking uneasy when Elspeth bumped into her the day before sprang into her mind.

I was arguing with Arthur last night. Perhaps Isabel passed by and overheard our conversation, so she told my mom about it.

When she realized what might have happened, her heart sank as she felt even more sorrowful.

In that case, she’ll do everything in her power to make sure I won’t find her.

Elspeth had almost forgotten that Helena was a young lady from the Joneson Family. She had many ways to make sure Elspeth wouldn’t find her.
