Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 388

Chapter 388 Stay Away

If my memory serves me right, Jennifer Qistrin—Jethro's cousin—is a little devil. She started playing violin when she was little and got some big accolades overseas, which contributed to her haughty, arrogant attitude. Everyone knows she has a short temper. My men got me that intel, so there shouldn't be any false information.

Just when Elspeth was wondering how she should deal with Jethro's cousin, he came to stand beside her. "You're spacing out. Are you scared of my cousin?"

"No. Why would I?"

"Oh, so that means you're nervous." Jethro bent over and noticed the frown on her face. Then, he chuckled. "I see you've heard of her attitude problem."

"Yes, but I need to meet her to see if the rumors are true," she said, trying to change the subject.

"True. She's beside the flower bed. Want to go say hi?"

Elspeth shook her head. "No. You say hi to her. I'll stay out."

Their conversation attracted the girl beside the flower bed. The moment she saw Jethro, the girl pounced at him, her eyes gleaming. "Jethro!" When she noticed Elspeth, her face fell. "Who is she? Why is she with you?" she asked, jealousy filling her voice. It felt like Elspeth had taken her boyfriend away.

"Hi, I'm Elspeth."

Elspeth extended her hand, but the girl smacked it away. "Don't touch me. Who are you?"

"Your cousin doesn't seem to like me very much. I'll wait for you somewhere, then." Elspeth shrugged and moved aside.

Already annoyed in the first place, Jennifer's attitude lit the flame of anger in Jethro. "What are you doing? She's our guest, not someone you can show your attitude to."

"Guest? You've never been so nice to any guest before." Jennifer was infuriated seeing them so close together. He has never been so gentle to anyone before. Not even me.

"That's because she's going to be my wife."

Jennifer's world shattered as soon as the words came out of his mouth. "You want to marry her?" She clenched her fists in fury, her eyes gleaming with anger. "I won't agree to this. I won't let you date her!" What's so good about her? She's pretty, yeah, but other than that, she's not friendly. I bet she's a witch. Jethro's mine. Mine alone!

He shot his cousin a look. "You don't get to dictate whom I marry."
