Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 259

say anything.” Max looked at her being silly, helplessly rolling his eyes. Only then did Yelena’s dejected attitude eventually subside.“Okay, okay. Tell me quickly. What did you lose last night?”After asking, Elspeth finally realized that she was a fool. Yelena was so drunk last night that she couldn’t remember anything, so Elspeth had no choice but to dismiss the thought.“By the way, something might happen to you guys today,” Elspeth cautiously said.Yelena and Blake spoke in unison, asking, “What?”“You two were stripped and left in the room last night, and photos were taken by a reporter. It might hit the news headlines today.”Bad news travels fast, doesn’t it?Elspeth touched her nose. “This matter might be a bit embarrassing, but both of you have to hold it together.”After hearing this, Yelena burst into tears. She had held on for so long and was finally on the brink of a breakthrough, but this event was likely to knock her back to square one.What would Max think of me? He would surely think I am dirty and unkempt, and he would despise me. Sobs—Yelena was crying so tragically that even Elspeth thought that she was bullying her.“Okay, stop crying. It’s getting a little annoying.” Max’s tone was not impatient, but with just one sentence, he frightened Yelena again.“Now everyone is getting annoyed with me. I know that men are all mean. I was wrong about you!” Yelena hummed and turned her head away, ignoring him.Elspeth looked at the childish tantrum and couldn’t help but smile. As she turned, she noticed that Callum and Blake were also secretly smiling.Indeed, she has the heart of a child.“Wait, I cried for the wrong person. Elspeth, what should I do now? How can I be rehydrated?” With this statement, Elspeth instantly became serious when she thought of how emotional Yelena was. Elspeth announced, “Although this matter may have a certain impact on you, it will not have a profound effect on your future. So, just face it with confidence, and don’t dwell on the past. I’ll figure it out for you.”Yelena wiped her tears and nodded, feeling a little relieved. “Really? How?”“You’ll soon know.”The morning news was quickly dominated by a breaking headline: ‘Elena and Blake Had a Sexy Night Out. What About Max’s Status as a Boyfriend?’The accompanying picture was blurry, likely due to Elspeth’s meddling. Some reporters had already deleted the pictures, so no matter how hard the others tried, their pictures were all unclear. This was actually advantageous for her future plans.However, the comments section was a bleak landscape. Yelena’s fans were trying their best to defend her, but their numbers were few, and many fans were expressing their shock and announcing their decision to unfollow her. On the other hand, Blake’s fans were equally disappointed, with many exclaiming that his persona had fallen, wondering how Blake could be willing to be a homewrecker. But soon, the comments were filled with accusations of Yelena leading Blake astray or drugging him. At the end of the day, the insults flowed onto Yelena’s social media page.Just as she thought, the whole incident was aimed at Yelena. In an outburst of anger, Yelena proclaimed, “What nonsense! How could I possibly be so frivolous? I’m such an innocent person. How could I be two-timing? The person who framed me is really f*cking sickening!” Listening to the barrage of foul language coming from Yelena’s mouth, Elspeth was momentarily at a loss for words.Is this really the Yelena that I know? Where has the initially naive, cute, lively, and simple young lady gone? Even now, she was trembling slightly.Max immediately questioned, “Yelena, what kind of bullsh*t is that?”Elspeth understood instantly and knew who taught her how to swear. Then, she wrote an article, and when she was ready to publish it, Callum looked at her with piercing insight. “I think I know what’s going on.”“The old switcheroo. You want Max to replace Blake.”Elspeth was surprised. “How did you figure that out?”Callum chuckled. “You’ve been staring at Blake and Max for half an hour. If I didn’t know your heart belongs to me, I’d think you had a roving eye.”Elspeth frowned. “I don’t have a roving eye. Was it that obvious that I was looking at them?”Blake nodded, his senses heightened as a result of the constant flash of cameras he faced long-term. “It’s pretty obvious. I noticed too. I thought you were planning to silence me to protect Yelena.”Elspeth replied with a smirk, “I’m not quite ready to kill someone yet, but I do have something I want to talk to you about.”“Okay.”“I want everyone to believe that Max is the one they’re looking for. This way, I can establish their love identity and restore Yelena’s reputation while also providing an explanation for the fans.”Max whispered, “What about my reputation?”Yelena, on the other hand, was unfazed. The public announcement might tarnish her once naive and sweet image, but she no longer cared.
