Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 203

Deidre can’t bear to let you go.”As she spoke, tears began to roll down Elspeth’s face, wetting her shirt. Her tears coupled with her beauty made her a pitiful sight to behold.Atlas immediately panicked. Upon seeing her tears, he felt his heart ache. “Apologies, Deidre. I…”Before he could finish, a thin hand sealed his lips.“Please don’t forget about Deidre.”At that, Elspeth dropped into a bow with red eyes.“Deidre asks for nothing except three things. One, for you to have a long life; two, for your name to spread across lands; and three, that Cassius won’t forget about Deidre, that we will one day meet again.” These words and Elspeth’s tear-ridden face made Atlas step forward and wrap his arms around her waist immediately. “I won’t leave anymore.

How could Elspeth be so good at acting? She refused to believe it!Clearly seeing Emma’s doubts, Elspeth smiled and said, “Although I have not undergone any professional training, I know how to express my feelings with my actions. Once you’ve mastered the true essence of acting, as long as you can memorize the script and aren’t afraid of the stage, it’s impossible not to act well.”At her speech, Emma was at a loss for words. As a trained professional, being criticized by a mere layman made her head heavy with shame.Upon seeing Emma’s defiant look, Elspeth smiled and said, “By the way, I’m not completely clueless to professional knowledge. When I was living abroad, I met someone called Payton Schwartz, who took me in as his apprentice and taught me much of what I know.”Elspeth had not wanted to learn acting either. And to be honest, she was not interested in acting at all. However, Payton was Sonny’s brother, and when he saw
