Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 70 Mr. Winthrop’s Pursuit

“I’m not trying to get rid of you. I’m just giving you advice so that you consider this carefully. I don’t want you to make a decision you’ll regret. You’re quite youthful, young lady. There are plenty of great guys in this world, so why are you fixated on Callum?”

As soon as Grace finished her words, a stern male voice suddenly rang out from the door. “She isn’t the one who’s fixated on me. I’m the one who has fallen for her.”

Callum wore a solemn look as he glanced at Grace, who was trying to convince Elspeth to give him up. Somehow, he could not contain the burning rage within him.

“Callum, you’re here…” She realized that he must have heard something, so she became embarrassed.

Meanwhile, Elspeth found it hard to describe the complicated feelings within her upon hearing his words. The tips of her ears turned rosy.

“From now on, please don’t approach Elspeth. My feelings for her are entirely my business. With or without her, I would never fall for Ophelia, so there is no point in you trying to convince Elspeth.” Callum maintained a protective stance before Elspeth and exuded a cold, distant aura.

Grace saw his besotted look, and her hatred for Elspeth intensified. “Your mom would never give your blessings.” She no longer put up a gentle and kind facade as she directly delivered some harsh words. “You would only be allowed to marry Ophelia.”

At that moment, he revealed a mocking smile. “It’s up to me on whom I marry, for it’s my life. My mom can’t do anything.”

“Fine. If that’s the case, let’s see how things end up.” Grace got up angrily and left by slamming the door after her.

“It’s not that nice of you to offend her this way…” Elspeth noticed Grace’s fury, gradually feeling uneasy. “I think it’s quite likely that she’ll see Mrs. Winthrop soon.”

However, Callum was unfussed. He helped to tuck her into bed instead. “It’s fine. I’ll always be by your side.”

Since his impulsive confession, he was no longer the same person before, and she found it hard to resist his tenderness. “Okay.”

He parted his lips and attempted to continue the conversation from last night, but someone pushed open the door once again.

This time, it was Ophelia. She saw the two of them in an intimate position and felt her heart ache badly. However, she maintained her composure. “Elspeth, how are you feeling? Does it still hurt?”
