Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 174

“Don’t try and trick me into going to Blaydal before ambushing me there. I’m telling you. If you try to pull something off, I can destroy you any time.”Elspeth didn’t bother to argue with this lunatic and said softly, “Don’t worry. I won’t lie to you. Don’t we have to meet up to sign the transfer contract?”Although he was still on edge, he hesitantly agreed to her request. Damoria was only two hours away from Blaydal by plane. Callum was still in a coma due to the poison. Elspeth mused over it and decided to temporarily allow the family doctor to take care of him. Then, she went out alone to meet Arthur.They made an appointment in a five-star hotel not far from the Joneson Residence since the hotel had really good sound insulation.When she finally arrived, Arthur was already inside, drinking tea by himself.“You’re finally here. I thought you lied to me.” Raising his chin slightly, he motioned for her to take a seat.She picked a seat furthest away from him and didn’t bother touching the cup of water.Arthur played with the cup in his hand and teased her, “What’s wrong? Are you scared of the glass of water? I’m not a monster. How could I do something to you here? I wouldn’t dare to drug you.”However, she ignored him and went straight to the point. “Did you bring the ginkgo?”“I did, but it’s not with me at the moment. It’s upstairs in the hotel room. Do you want to come and see it with me?”When Elspeth looked up, she noticed that he was staring at her with great interest. There was a faint smile on his face and a hint of sarcasm in his voice.“It’s fine. Tell me. Are you only going to hand it over after I’ve transferred the shares to you?”Arthur shrugged. “I suppose so.”“But right now, Callum is in a coma. I can’t transfer the shares to you until he wakes up.”What she said made sense, but Arthur wasn’t satisfied with her answer. “Once you’ve used the ginkgo, and Callum is awake, what leverage do I have left?”She wasn’t being pushy or dismissive. “If you don’t trust me, then record what we said. If I don’t keep up my end of the deal, you can sue me any time.”However, he shook his head. “Elspeth, you’re too smart for your own good. As long as you say something indirectly, verbal promises won’t have legal effects. Do you think I’m stupid?”Such a weak lie couldn’t fool him at all. He saw Elspeth sitting there with her
