Love's Perfect Match

As Blake was about to greet the familiar face with a smile, his expression turned solemn when he noticed the

platinum card in her hand. He wondered why the card was with Lisa. As far as he remembered, the card had

always been left untouched in Elspeth’s purse. Moreover, the bunch of keys had the same keychain as Elspeth’s. He

couldn’t fathom why it was with Lisa. Don’t tell me…

“Is she a thief?” he whispered to himself. He then hurriedly went up to grab Lisa’s wrist and persuaded her, “Lisa,

why are you stealing things? You could let me know if you are broke. I’ll lend you the money. Return the items at

once, or you might go to jail if they catch you.” Blake was so worried about her that his forehead was covered in

sweat.

Lisa recalled who Blake was and found his words funny yet odd. “Why should I inform you if I’m broke?”

Blake was equally surprised, not knowing why he blurted out such words. “That’s because stealing isn’t right.

Moreover, the items that you have stolen belong to Callum and Elspeth.”

Lisa looked at him helplessly upon hearing that. Rumor has it that Blake is a smart guy who can memorize his lines

by heart while filming, but why doesn’t that seem to be the case?

“I didn’t steal anything.”

Lisa struggled to free her wrist, but Blake gripped it so tightly that she couldn’t escape. With that, she threw a kick

at him, and he finally let go to dodge the kick. Her hand was supple and soft.

“Don’t touch me.” Lisa had taken martial art classes, so defeating Blake wasn’t an issue for her. However, since he

was Callum’s brother and Elspeth’s friend, she didn’t intend to hurt him.

Seeing how stubborn she was, he went up to her and hugged her tightly. “Alright, listen to me. I’m giving you a word

of advice because you seem naive. Go and return the items.”

“Don’t touch me! I’m not returning them.” Hearing that, Blake had no choice but to carry her in his arms, and the

sudden sensation of being lifted startled Lisa. She jerked her shoulders and clutched onto him. It was the first time

in 18 years that a man was carrying her, and it felt rather odd.

Blake then entered Elspeth’s room while carrying Lisa in his arms. Elspeth and Callum were chattering and

bantering with each other, and they were so surprised to see Blake carrying the blushing Lisa in his arms. Their jaws

dropped at once.

“Both of you have made great progress!” Hearing that, Blake finally realized that his actions weren’t appropriate

and immediately put Lisa down. Following that, he locked the door, fearing that she would escape.

“It’s not that. She has stolen something.”

Elspeth was surprised upon hearing that; based on her understanding of Lisa’s character, she’d never do something

like that. It could be a misunderstanding, but what caused it?

“If you didn’t say that she had stolen something, I would’ve thought you were here to announce your marriage to

each other,” Callum said sarcastically.

“That’s not it. She did steal something…” Blake replied in embarrassment.

“I didn’t steal anything.” Lisa was speechless when she saw how silly he looked. How could there be such an idiotic

man? she thought.

“I think I know what you mean. Let me introduce her to you. This is Lisa, my private investigator. She is in charge of

investigating various matters for me, and I was the one who passed those items to her.” Elspeth then glanced over

at Blake and tutted. “I won’t be introducing you. I think she knows who you are at first glance,” she said.

“Of course. I’m pretty famous, after all.” Blake raised his brows.

“No, it’s because she has already run a check on you, including…” Elspeth smiled mysteriously before continuing,

“Including the color of underpants you’re wearing. She knows everything.”

“I don’t believe it!” Blake’s expression turned sour.

“You have ten underpants in total, and you’re wearing the pink one today,” Lisa announced confidently. Blake

stared at her with widened eyes, for he couldn’t believe that she knew about it. Callum, on the other hand, couldn’t

contain his laughter upon hearing that.

“Don’t laugh at him. She knows yours too.” Elspeth rolled her eyes at Callum, making the latter speechless as well.

“Alright, so has the problem been solved?” Elspeth glanced at Blake resignedly.

“Problem solved. I’m sorry for the misunderstanding.” Blake felt bad when he realized that he was at fault. When

Lisa thought of how silly he looked when he carried her over to make her surrender, the anger she harbored

somehow disappeared.

“It’s fine.”

However, Blake felt bad and wanted to make it up to her. “If you’re going somewhere, I can give you a lift. You can

take this as an apology,” he offered.

“No, thank you. I have a car.” Lisa rejected his offer, not wanting to get involved with him.

“Don’t worry about it. I’ll give you a ride.” With that, he grabbed her wrist by force and dragged her out.

Meanwhile, as Elspeth watched them, she rubbed her chin with her finger and asked, “Do you think they will end up

together?”

“Instead of being concerned about this, shouldn’t you think about how you’re going to deal with Arthur?” Callum

asked nonchalantly after taking a sip of water.

Right, I was so distracted that I almost forgot about that.

After giving the matter some thought, she sighed. “Eric has already taken action against him, though. I feel that he

might do something out of desperation if we do something to him.” Elspeth thought of letting the matter go.

“Don’t worry about that. I’ll help you with it.” Callum smirked. As Elspeth’s boyfriend, he couldn’t sit well with the

fact that some other man was trying to woo her. Thus, he decided to take care of it.

The next day, there was news about a faction within the Alphascape Group. There seemed to be a problem with a

batch of stocks handled by Arthur. Someone used it against Arthur and claimed that he was the person behind it,

causing Arthur to be suspended from his position.

When Elspeth found out about the news, Callum was peeling an orange for her. She instantly suspected that he had

something to do with it. “Did you do it?”

“I’m only teaching him a lesson this time round. He’ll be fine since Dad will get someone to help him. I’ll wait until

he stirs something up that disgusts Dad, and that’s when I’ll take him down.”

Is Theodore going to get someone to help him? “You have a point. After all, Theodore is a nice person. Arthur was

ignorant when he insisted on severing ties with him and even suspected Theodore. Even so, Theodore is still

supportive of him.” Elspeth was furious at the thought of it.

“Don’t worry about it. Dad decided to help because Arthur is his son. If Arthur doesn’t appreciate that, he will get a

taste of his medicine later on.”

Elspeth nodded as she agreed with Callum. The next moment, a news notification suddenly popped up on her

phone, and the headline read, ‘Son of Oil Magnate Has Fallen for Elspeth. What Will Happen to Callum? Who Will

Win the Girl?’

Below the headline were pictures of Elspeth with Eric, as well as another picture of her in Callum’s arms.

Callum narrowed his gaze and was infuriated upon seeing the news. “They sure are ballsy, stirring up trouble

again.”
