Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 53

Chapter 53 Attempted Assault

“Why do you care so much…” Elspeth rolled her eyes helplessly, but she was not as strong as Callum. So, she had no choice but to resign herself to being pinned down on the chair.

Seeing that, Jordan stopped chatting with her and returned to his seat to rest.

Soon after arriving in Bellville, she and Callum got off the plane and parted ways with Jordan.

“I suddenly realized I forgot to ask Mr. Carr’s full name.”

When Callum heard that, a sudden trace of coldness lit up in his eyes. “What? Do you want to know his name?”

She didn’t realize he sounded off as she replied, “Yeah. He’s a friend who fights by my side, so I’m curious about his identity.”

A friend who fights by your side.

Turning his head away, he stopped talking to her.

Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the hotel, Elspeth saw that familiar face again at the reception.

“Mr. Carr, what a coincidence you’re staying in this hotel too.”

Jordan turned her head and saw Callum and Elspeth walking toward him. A smile bloomed on his face. “You two are here too? We’re neighbors for the time being, then!”

She asked curiously, “Mr. Carr, may I have your name, please?”

He chuckled, “Jordan Carr.”

Jordan Carr!

Elspeth was not unfamiliar with the name at all. It was only three years ago when the previously unknown NK Group shot to fame overnight. After only three years of development, the company had already held a pivotal position in several industries. Jordan was the president of that company, but he maintained a low profile and never appeared in public.

She was slightly surprised but still introduced herself. “I am Elspeth Lynwood, and this is Callum—”

“I know. You’re popular all over the country, and I’ve also seen you on TV.” Jordan then turned around and smiled at Callum. “It’s nice to meet you, Mr. Winthrop.”

In response, he extended his hand and waited for Callum to shake it. Callum watched Jordan quietly with his deep eyes, and after a long time, he shook Jordan’s hand firmly.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll return to the room first.” Jordan was not timid in the face of Callum’s hostility but he had an amused smile instead.

When Jordan left, she couldn’t help asking, “Callum, do you have a grudge against Jordan?”

“No,” Callum answered with a cold expression.

“Then, why do you look like he owes you millions?”

He looked at her meaningfully but didn’t explain. Instead, he uttered lightly, “Okay, let’s go back and rest. We have a collaboration to discuss at 8.00PM.”

“Sure,” Elspeth hummed perfunctorily, but suddenly, she thought of something and turned around to ask him. “Callum, do you know what caused the issue with the plane today?”

“Is it human-related?”

She was shocked. “How did you know?”
