Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 86

Chapter 86

At that moment, Yelena was red in the face. She would be lying if she said she wasn’t embarrassed when her thoughts were exposed.

On the other hand, Hex had already forgotten his flirtatious attempts toward Elspeth and got familiar with her after talking for some time. “Alright, now, let’s go back. What about you, Elspeth? Do you want to join us?”

“No, thanks. You guys have fun,” said Elspeth.

Hearing her words, Hex pouted and walked away.

On the other hand, Yelena patted Elspeth on the shoulder while looking at her calm expression. “I know you must feel terrible after you went through such a thing. Don’t worry, Elspeth. The truth will soon be revealed, and you will be proven innocent.”

“I know.”

“Well, since I have snuck out and don’t feel like sitting with them, why don’t you accompany me? We can have some small talk over there.” After Yelena finished speaking, she looked at Elspeth expectantly.

Just as Elspeth was going to refuse her proposal, her phone suddenly rang. It was Harper, and he told Elspeth that he couldn’t come over since the company had some urgent business.

“Come on. Hang with me. Your friend can’t make it anyway.” Yelena immediately grabbed Elspeth and found a place to sit. Then, she propped her head with her hands as she looked at Max, who was in the dark, with adoration.

“Why do you like him, Yelena?” asked Elspeth. She had always wondered how someone as proud as Yelena would fall in love with Max, who was bad-tempered. She remembered the first time she had met Max and talking to him was a disaster.

“Oh, me?” Yelena recalled the memory from her past. “To be honest, my first encounter with Max wasn’t when he saved me. I have known him for a long time before that.”

Elspeth paused a little as she didn’t expect them to have known each other for longer than that.

“Our first encounter was two years ago. At that moment, I was only fifteen years old and hadn’t debuted yet. I was a trainee then, and the teacher kept scolding me for not dancing well. I had bruises all over my body, which was terrible, so I always cried at the lake behind the company.” As Yelena recalled the past, she felt that it was bittersweet. “Max was only sixteen years old when we met. He was in high school, and the coincidence was that his school was right next to my company. That’s how I met him one time when I was crying by the lake.”

Elspeth imagined what had happened as she listened to the story. “So, he comforted you, and you fell in love

with him?”

Thinking about the scene, Yelena laughed and said, “No. He thought I was going to jump into the lake and quickly grabbed me. We both fell into the lake since it was too slippery. He saved me from the water and gave me a scolding, but I thought that he looked cute.”

Elspeth couldn’t help but twitch her lips. As expected, only a plot twist would fit these two gremlins.

“What happens next?” Elspeth asked.

Then, Yelena propped her chin as she recalled. “After that, he left. He told me not to give up on life and continue to live. At that moment, I still didn’t know his name, not until he saved me again that day. And in that split second, I knew that it was fate. Haha, he can’t escape from me.”

“He didn’t recognize you?” Elspeth was stunned.

“Yeah. He didn’t remember who I was. Hence, when I grabbed onto him excitedly the last time, he thought that I was a pervert and told me to stay away from him.” As Yelena spoke, she looked distressed.
