Love's Perfect Match

Only after Finn had left did Elspeth text Yelena and get her to open the door. As soon as she entered, Yelena threw

herself into her arms with tears gushing from her eyes.

“What happened? How did Finn find you here?”

Yelena sobbed, “I don’t know. Perhaps he learned that from someone.”

“Stop crying, everything’s alright now. By the way, I happen to have something to talk to you about. I forgot to tell

you about it at last time’s birthday party.”

Yelena held back her tears. “What is it?”

“I told you about it last time. You can sign with Luminous Entertainment after your contract is terminated.”

Yelena’s tears instantly gave way to a smile. “Really? Can I really sign with Luminous Entertainment?”

Seeing the look of disbelief on her face, Elspeth couldn’t help but give her a knock on the head. “Did you forget

who’s running the company?”

Yelena knew that, of course. If Elspeth were to stop concealing her identity, she’d be Luminous Entertainment’s

president both in name and reality by now. I’m perhaps the only person who understands how it feels when my

bestie becomes my superior overnight, no? She leaned over to Elspeth, giggling. “Well, if that’s what you say, I

guess I won’t be standing on ceremony with you.”

Knowing what her friend was up to, Elspeth curled her lips into a smile. “In that case, why don’t you come with me

now?”

Yelena couldn’t be any happier to comply, of course. After grooming herself a little, she went to Luminous

Entertainment with Elspeth.

Elspeth took her to see Timothy, who was studying a screenplay while looking madly impatient.

It’s so hard to look for a suitable script for Blake! he thought to himself. He had studied the script for quite a while.

Blake had the looks of a high school hunk who was more on the gentle side, but the actresses proposed for the role

of the female protagonist were either plain or out of tune with the character, which was a total headache.

“Timothy, what’s giving you such a headache?” Elspeth came up with a smile and patted him on the shoulder.

Despite her young age, she conducted herself with an air of sophistication that was beyond her years.

Having nothing to hide from her, Timothy explained frankly, “I’m looking for a screenplay for Blake, but there isn’t a

suitable one.”

Elspeth wasn’t worried about that at all. How could Blake have trouble landing a role in film or on TV with his

handsome looks? A lead male protagonist with Blake’s looks would easily win the hearts of countless girls with just a

wink. “Is the problem about the lead actress?”

Timothy nodded. “Yeah, the lead actresses are no good. I can’t find a lead actress that’d make a great couple with

him.”

Upon hearing this, Elspeth decisively dragged Yelena in front of him from behind her. “In that case, what about

her?”

Having kidnapped the lady last time, Timothy had to admit he was rather embarrassed at seeing Yelena right now.

However, having spent a long time in the workplace, he had learned to know which side his bread was buttered on,

so he soon regained his composure. “Yelena, huh… She’s not one of our company’s artists, no? Wouldn’t it be a

waste of time and energy to negotiate with her agency to sign her on for the script?” Thinking from Luminous

Entertainment’s perspective, he thought it wasn’t worthwhile doing so.

Elspeth shook her head. “Yelena’s contract with her agency has ended already, so I’m going to sign her with

Luminous Entertainment. What do you think?”

A bad feeling suddenly crossed Timothy’s mind. “Don’t tell me… you want me to be her talent agent?”

Elspeth snapped her fingers with a smile. “Bingo! That’s exactly what I want you to do.”

Timothy immediately objected, “I already have enough headache acting as a talent agent for Blake alone, and now

you want me to be Yelena’s talent agent as well? Why don’t you kill me right away instead?” He really didn’t want to

manage two talents at once. If this were to go on, he’d definitely have his lifespan shortened.

“I’ll double your salary.”

Timothy hesitated for a moment. “But—”

“Triple.”

Hearing the word ‘triple,’ Timothy suddenly thought it was every employee’s duty to give their all for their

company, so he shouldn’t shirk his duty. “I got it. I’ll work hard as her talent agent.” He eyed Yelena up and down;

the young lady’s pretty and innocent looks were simply made for teen romance dramas. “I have eyes on a TV show

that’s calling for a lead actor and a lead actress, and I suggest that we buy the rights to the show. Trust me; the

show will definitely be a big hit!” He was very confident in his judgment.

Elspeth trusted him, too. She replied with a nod, “I got it. If there’s anything you want to do right now, just go to the

Finance Department for funding. There’s no need to go out of your way to come to me anymore.”

This was the first time someone trusted Timothy so much, so he would be lying if he were to say he wasn’t touched.

At this moment, he was full of zeal and couldn’t wait to start showing his capabilities immediately.

Elspeth turned to smile at Yelena. “Alright, now that your place isn’t safe anymore, why don’t you stay here for the

time being? There are hotel suites on the third floor. Just let Timothy pick the suite you like so that it’s convenient

for you to come to work,” she said. Then, she said to Timothy, “As for the contract, Timothy, can you help print it

out? The stamp is in the safe in my office; the passcode is six eights in a row.” With that, she left the room and

returned home, leaving Yelena and Timothy in complete bewilderment in the office. Can the passcode… be

disclosed to anyone?

Elspeth didn’t go to the Winthrop Group in the afternoon. When she returned home and saw Callum, she was

startled for a moment and almost unable to come to her senses. It’s not time to get off work yet, yet Callum is

already at home. Something is amiss, no?

“Where have you been?”

Elspeth noticed that Callum seemed to have heaved a sigh of relief the instant he saw her. “What’s the matter?

Only now do you know to come to me of your own accord, huh?”

Callum looked away impassively. “I only came home to fetch some documents.”

He’s got nothing in his hands, yet he says he came home to fetch documents… Elspeth clicked her tongue. “Tsk, tsk.

Callum, I don’t know what you’ve gone through, but keep in mind that if you’re still in love with me, you can tell me

what you’ve come across. We can solve it together,” she said earnestly and sincerely, but the man turned around

and left as though he hadn’t heard her.

He didn’t come home that evening.

At the dining table in the evening, Max poked his fork into one of the beef ribs on his plate, asking casually, “Why

haven’t I seen Mom at home lately? Where has she been?”

Theodore smiled. “Your mom has gone traveling with her friends. You won’t get to see her for a long time.”

“She didn’t even answer my phone call when I called her last time. Why would she have no time answering the

phone while having fun out there?”

Theodore shot him a glare. “It’s not easy for your mom to go out and have fun. Why would you disturb her by

calling her every day? Can’t you let her have fun to her heart’s content?”

Max mulled over his words and thought there was some truth in them. Margot hadn’t gone out traveling for a long

time; she’d never had time to go out because she’d always been looking after them at home. “Alright, but you’re

probably right. Once Callum and Elspeth get married and have kids, Mom will probably have to take care of her

grandchildren at home.”

He only mentioned it thoughtlessly as a joke, but the instant he said that, the others immediately fell silent.

Elspeth bit her lower lip without saying a word, whereas Blake’s heart twinged sharply as he was still hung up on

her.

Theodore laughed in an attempt to lift the atmosphere. “Yeah, you’re right. Your mom will have to take care of her

grandchildren by then.”
