Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 237

“What’s wrong? Are you worried that Emma would threaten you?” Elspeth found it laughable. The person before

her eyes was a famous director in the country, but he was so timid in front of Emma.

“I’m not afraid of Emma but the financier behind her. Do you know that he’s a powerful guy from a foreign

country? No one has the guts to offend him.”

Elspeth snorted. “Really? Tell me who he is, then. I’ll see if he’s as powerful as you say he is.”

After learning the financier’s name, Elspeth fell silent for a moment. Then, she asked, “Where’s Emma?”

“She’s recuperating in her villa now. What’s the matter? Do you want to go looking for her?”

Elspeth nodded. “Of course. Since you’re not willing to lend me the film set, I can only look for her.”

Embarrassed, the director rubbed his hands and nodded. “In that case, you’d better go there on your own. I’ll send

you her address.”

Despite Elspeth’s silence, she secretly despised the director. After receiving the address, she turned around and

left.

Callum looked at her and asked, “Aren’t you going to look for her?”

I’m not going now, of course. Elspeth stretched her back and flashed him a languid smile. “I’ll go there when I’m

ready.”

Callum knew that she had a plan, so he stopped probing further.

In the evening, Elspeth headed straight to Emma’s villa. She politely knocked on the door, and a woman in casual

clothes stepped out.

The woman was none other than Emma. Since her acne hadn’t subsided, her appearance was slightly affected.

When Emma registered Elspeth’s presence, her expression changed drastically. “Why are you here? How did you

find my place?”

“As long as I want to look for you, I’ll find you wherever you are.” Elspeth shot her a dispassionate look. Gazing at

Emma’s livid expression, she said with a smile, “Mind telling me why you’re not allowing the director to lend me the

film set?”

Upon learning the other woman’s purpose for visiting, Emma snorted and returned to the living room. Then, she sat

down on the couch and started watching television. “I suggest you save your breath. You’ve offended me on several

occasions. Even if you beg me, I won’t lend the film set to you. You’d better give up immediately.”

“Who said that I’m here to beg you? I’m demanding it from you.”

Upon hearing that, Emma directly blew her top. “That’s funny. Since you’re threatening me, there’s no way I’ll lend

it to you!”

Elspeth walked into the living room and scoffed. “I heard that the financier behind you is very powerful.”

Emma’s lips curved into a satisfied smile when she heard that. “That’s right. You can’t afford to offend the man

behind me.”

Is that really the case? Look at how conceited she is! Elspeth smiled. “Why don’t you introduce him to me, Emma?

I’ll see how powerful he is.”

“You’ll never be as powerful as he is. Are you trying to snatch him from me? What’s wrong? Is Callum unable to

help you any longer? Is that why you’ve come all the way here to throw your weight around?”

There was no denying that Elspeth had a beautiful oval face. Apart from her fair skin, she also had a pair of alluring

eyes. If Elspeth appeared in front of that guy, Emma would feel threatened.

“Not everyone loves relying on a wealthy man like you do.” When Elspeth heard Emma’s words, she couldn’t help

bursting into laughter. “Do you think I need to depend on any man?”

This woman is crazy. Does she think every woman has to rely on a man as she does?

Emma’s expression turned gloomy. “What do you mean?”

Without responding to her, Elspeth fished out her phone and dialed a number. The voice coming from her phone

was loud and sounded familiar to Emma.

Around ten minutes later, someone unlocked the door from outside. Emma’s expression changed instantly. “Why

are you here, Eric?”

Eric was a handsome biracial man who looked like a prince from a medieval painting. Elspeth is around. Why would

Eric come to visit all of a sudden?

“What’s wrong? Can’t I be here?” Eric didn’t seem fluent in the local language. He frowned as he looked at Emma.

Emma shook her head and took the initiative to grab his arm before saying sweetly, “Eric, are you here to see me

because you miss me?”

Elspeth shot the woman a look and pursed her lips. “Just so you know, I’m still around. Do you have to be so lovey-

dovey?”

Emma noticed that Eric had never moved his eyes away from Elspeth since he entered the villa. His loving gaze

made Emma feel worried. As such, she decided to stick close to the man.

Has Eric fallen in love with Elspeth at first sight? I can never let that happen!

“Eric, this woman has been oppressing me, and I can’t win the argument.” Emma shook the man’s arm with an

aggrieved expression. “You’re a powerful man. Why don’t you teach her a lesson for me?”

This time, Eric didn’t readily please Emma as he typically did. Instead, he glanced at Elspeth and said, “Hi.”

Elspeth rolled her eyes. “It seems that you still haven’t brushed up on the local language, Eric.”

Elspeth knew that Eric wasn’t proficient in the local language, so she decided to speak to him in a foreign language.

Upon hearing that, Eric bashfully hung his head low. “I don’t live in this country. It’s only natural that my knowledge

of the local language hasn’t improved one bit.”

“Why did you fall in love with this woman? It’s beyond me.” Elspeth was speechless.

Eric looked lovingly at Elspeth and replied with a smile, “It’s because this woman resembles you, especially her

mouth. Whenever I kiss her, it feels like I’m kissing you.”

Elspeth retched. “Ew, please don’t say that.”

Recalling what she was there for, she continued, “Eric, she has been reckless and arrogant because she’s your

woman. Can you help me with something?”

Eric smiled. “Sure.”

As Emma listened to their conversation, she felt disgusted.

Eric understands the local language. Why does she need to speak a foreign language?

Emma had limited knowledge of the language they spoke. As such, she found it hard to grasp what they were

saying. Nonetheless, she managed to catch a very important piece of information through their conversation.

Elspeth and Eric are not just friends; they’re probably very close.

Suddenly, Emma had a premonition.

“Do you know her, Eric?”

Eric gaped at Elspeth with an affectionate expression. “Of course, I do. She’s the dream girl I told you about

before.”

In an instant, Emma’s heart sank.

Meanwhile, Elspeth remained unperturbed, but she felt pleased when she saw Emma’s contorted face.
