Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 385 Are You Mad?!

“You’re mad.” Elspeth thought that was a joke. Why does he think he can do that?

“You can think so if you like.” Arthur stared at her solemnly. “I’ll make you come back to me.”

She frowned and tried to leave, but, to her dismay, the door was locked.

“We’re not done yet. Don’t leave.” Arthur’s gaze turned dark.

“I have no time to waste here,” she snapped coldly. She had no patience for him.

“What if I said I have news about your mother and Isabel? Would you like to talk, then?”

Elspeth froze upon hearing that, and the man noticed that. “See? I can always make you stay just by mentioning

them, no matter what.”

She curled her fingers up, determination filling her eyes. Slowly, she hissed, “You sc*m!”

“You’d better do as I say, or I can’t promise I won’t hurt them.” Arthur looked at her.

“Then, tell me what you know about them.” Elspeth didn’t believe him. She knew it wasn’t as simple as he was

making it out to be.

He looked away. “It’s been a month since you came back. And you still haven’t found them?”

“Cut the crap. I know you know nothing about them.” She sneered. Not even my intelligence network knows where

they are, and my people know a lot more than yours. You can’t trick me.

“Sometimes, a woman should pretend to be stupid, you know.”

Finally, Elspeth found the unlock mechanism, and she gave Arthur one tight slap. “You disgust me, Arthur!”

While he was still stunned, she quickly made her escape. The man stared at her, fury filling his eyes. One day, I will

make you fall for me, you arrogant wench.

…

Elspeth came back to her office only to see Jethro there.

The man fiddled with his phone as he remarked sarcastically, “I was wondering why you haven’t sent us the video.

So, you were meeting up with a guy.”

“You saw it?”

She went around him and took a seat, and then Jethro pointed his head at her computer. “You didn’t turn it off. I

saw the email.”

Elspeth blushed. The email Arthur sent her contained nothing but threats and a demand for her to meet him.

Just when she was about to say something, Jethro stood up suddenly and leaned toward her, his gaze fixed on her.

“Why didn’t you tell me that someone was threatening you?”

She froze at his words, feeling a bit bewildered. “Why should I tell you?”

“So, I can protect you, dummy.” He was smiling, but his fury almost broke his mask.

“I saw through him. I don’t need your protection.” Elspeth waved him down and tried to push him away, but Jethro

wouldn’t move.

“You should have told me either way.”

Oh, boy. He’s like a child throwing a tantrum. Amused, the woman said, “Alright, I get it. I’ll tell you next time.”

It was only then that Jethro moved away. “Good. Now that I know who he is, I shall get back at him.”

“How?”

“Not your business.” Oh, this reminds me. “Anyway, just send me the video and prepare yourself for the banquet.

It’s tomorrow.”

“That’s fast.” Elspeth was surprised.

“It’s the weekend. No work. Perfect for a banquet.”

Jethro smiled. The banquet was just a lie he made up so she would go with him to meet his family.

She nodded, albeit feeling suspicious. “I see.”

Good. With that, the man left.

…

As soon as the video of Jethro and Skylar was uploaded, the Internet went wild.

OperativeA69420 commented, ‘I knew it. He didn’t cheat on her. They’re still a loving couple.’

I_Like_Big_Butts_and_I_Cannot_Lie commented, ‘Who knows? This might be a video they made to shut us up.’

Peppa_the_Roasted_Pig commented, ‘Shut it. I ship them. One more stupid comment and I’m reporting you.’

uWubuttsmasheruWu commented, ‘I still think that woman looked like Elspeth.’

Despite the comments, the little blip was finally over, and the crowd loved their Kylathro ship. Before long, the

Wilstones called. Jethro was annoyed about it, but he picked up the call anyway. “What is it?”

Moriarty said, “I thought your girlfriend was Azure’s president. What’s the deal with this lowly influencer?” When he

saw the news about an influencer called Skylar dating his son, he almost had a heart attack.

“Ah, it’s just an act. Besides, do you think I’d fall for a regular influencer?”

Worried, Moriarty said, “Be careful, then. Don’t overdo it, or Elspeth might ditch you.”

Jethro’s lips twitched. She’s the one who started this whole thing, old man. But I can’t tell you that. He smiled. “You

don’t have to worry about that. She’s coming home with me tomorrow. Make sure you guys give her a warm

welcome.”

Relieved, Moriarty beamed. “Alright. Now, figure out her favorite food and allergies. I’ll make the preparations.”

“Sure thing, Dad. Will get back to you in a jiffy.” Jethro nodded.

However, the moment he hung up, he was shocked to find someone standing beside him. On a closer look, he

realized it was just Skylar. She was tearing up, and her smile seemed forced.

“What’s wrong? Did someone do something to you?” he asked. If it weren’t for Elspeth telling him to be nice to

Skylar for the act, he wouldn’t have said a word to her.

“I-It’s nothing.” Skylar took a deep breath and handed a file to him. “This is the president’s plan for the next

quarter. She wanted me to hand it to you. Personally.”

Jethro gave her a kind smile. “I’ll take a look.”
