Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 387

After she got off work the next day, Elspeth saw a conspicuous red sports car stopped by the roadside. She never really paid attention to the cars around the building. All she knew was that Jethro would usually pick her up in modest cars. This wasn't his style, but then Jethro came out of it. He was wearing a deep brown shirt, a big, devilish smile curling his lips.

Then, he said, "I'm here to pick you up, Elsie. Now, can you come home with me?"

Elspeth harrumphed. And I thought he'd be more mature. I see the change of clothes didn't change his attitude. He's making it sound like I'm his fiancée who's going to meet his parents. Fine, I'll play along. She said, "I still have to get changed and buy some presents."

Jethro pointed at the back seat. It was filled with all kinds of presents. "I've bought everything you might need. And you're a guest. Drop the formalities. Now, get in."

She shrugged and got into the car.

Not too long later, she was taken to the Wilstone Residence. It was a resplendent place, the doors high and mighty. There were circular windows all around, and stone structures littered the corner. I see why Jethro doesn't care about money. This whole place reeks of wealth.

Even before she got out of the car, Elspeth saw a stretch of a red carpet draped over the field outside. Standing at the sides were the residence's servants holding a tray filled with petals of flowers. Why does this look like a wedding ceremony? Carefully, she got out of the car. The moment she stepped onto the carpet, the servants quickly tossed the petals into the air, and all of them rained down on her. She was shocked, but she could do nothing about it.

Elspeth turned around, but Jethro looked calm. In fact, he looked delighted. Why is he looking like that?

She shot him a look, but the man only gave her a look that said, 'Calm down.'

"Alright, come with me." He stepped forth and held her hand, trying to take her in.

Elspeth liked the old mon, so she went up to him. "Do you know me, sir?"

She didn't like the man holding her hand, but she couldn't break free.

"Come on, stop struggling. You don't want even more surprises, do you?"

More? This is already bad enough. Elspeth smiled and quickly changed her attitude. She held Jethro's hand and went inside. Once she was in the lounge, she caught a whiff of something that smelled like perfume. However, before she could even see who it was, a woman was already happily holding her hand.

"You must be Elspeth. Oh, you're prettier than I imagined." The woman was plump, but she was still beautiful. And she looked at Elspeth like she was her daughter-in-law.

Elspeth was at a loss. "Hi, Mrs. Wilstone. You must be Jethro's mother."

The woman grinned, wrinkles creasing the corner of her eyes. "Yes. You have a good eye, Miss Lynwood."

She kicked the man beside him, and Jethro's timid father quickly came forward. "Yes. You're gorgeous and gentle, Miss Lynwood. I can see why Jethro likes you," Moriarty said honestly. The comment he made was exactly what was on everyone's mind.

Dammit, this is all a trick! Still, I can't yell at Jethro right now. His parents and grandfather are here. Thus, she could only smile. "It's not what you think, Mrs. Wilstone. We're just friends."

However, Jessica didn't mind. She only smiled gently. "It's alright. After you guys spend some time together, you'll eventually fall in love."
