Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 383

Chapter 383 Fake Couple

“It’s just an act. It’s not real. Besides, my grandpa is adamant about seeing my girl. I can’t find anyone else as good as you are.”

Jethro looked at her closely and nodded. “You’re a fine woman, and my grandpa likes you.”

“Why?” Elspeth wondered.

Jethro almost laughed. “Everyone in Damoria knows you’re smart and beautiful. You have a lot of suitors. Enough to make an army.”

“You’re joking.” Elspeth knew she had suitors, but not as many as Jethro claimed. However, unbeknownst to her, before she was dating Callum, Harper rejected all invitations from the good gentlemen of Damoria. Since she started dating Callum, no one would even go near her, so she thought nobody liked her.

“No. My grandpa was really happy when I told him I liked you, and he asked to see you.” He pouted, looking aggrieved. “If you don’t come with me, my grandpa is going to lock me up at home. By then, your company will lose a money-maker.”

Elspeth held her forehead. He was exaggerating things, but Jethro was right. He was the hottest influencer in the company. If he were to leave, they would sustain a big loss. Well, the pros outweigh the cons. Elspeth nodded. “Fine. I’ll play along.”

Delighted, Jethro patted her head. “Good. You may proceed with your plan and tell the public that the girl is Skylar.”

Elspeth smacked his hand away. “It’s not that simple. You might have accepted the plan, but we still have to ask Skylar.”

Skylar can’t stop trying to hook up with me. Jethro sneered, “Don’t worry. She’ll take the offer.” She’s desperate to be my girlfriend.

“Alright. Shut it and let’s go.” Elspeth got in Jethro’s car.

Oh my god. Finally. Jethro beamed. “As you wish.”

They drove off to the company. The moment they showed up, Skylar came in crying. Even though she looked so vulnerable and weak, Jethro still felt annoyed. He turned around and refused to give her even a look.

“What’s wrong? What happened?” Elspeth asked.

“Someone just called me a homewrecker. They called me a fake. They said the relationship with Jethro is just a scripted act.”

Uh duh. You are a homewrecker because you always appear when I’m with Elspeth. I’m annoyed, don’t you know?

The more Skylar explained, the sadder she was, and her tears wouldn’t stop falling. She knew that woman was Elspeth. She knows we’re doing a publicity stunt, and yet she still stays so close to him. Not only that, they were captured on camera. They just affected my career. Skylar was always an innocent girl, or at least that was her persona. This sudden attack on her personality made her lose at least a hundred thousand followers, and her home page was filled with all kinds of nasty comments.

“Calm down. I have a plan.”

Skylar sobbed. “What is it?”

Elspeth whispered, “Not like anyone can see the face. We’ll just claim that the girl is you.”

Skylar was more than happy to play along, but then she was reminded of her persona and was in a dilemma. “I’ve never gone to a bar before. It’s going to hurt my image.” They already think I’m a homewrecker. If they think I’m a fan of bars, it’s all over for me.

“Calm down. I’ll try to help you as much as I can. This is our only way out for now.”
