Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 264

a favor.Since Lisa knew that she couldn’t hide it from Callum because he was smart, she decided to tell the truth. “She is out eating with a friend.” She even emphasized ‘friend’ because she was afraid that he misunderstood her words.“A friend? Guy or girl? Why won’t she answer my call while eating with her friend?” As Callum spoke, his expression darkened. At that moment, he could tell that Elspeth was with another man. She still went out with her friend, even though it was in the middle of the night. Plus, she tells Lisa to come back, which means they are alone.Lisa was scared that he would get mad and quickly added, “They used to be friends. He was just going to return her a favor.”In the middle of the night? What favor is he returning? Callum thought.Then, he stood up and said, “Let’s go.”When Lisa heard his words, she knew that he was off to find Elspeth. Should I call Elspeth and tell her about this? Maybe not. After all, her phone was dead, so I wouldn’t be able to call her, not to mention that she hadn’t answered Callum’s calls.As Lisa thought about it, she looked at Callum’s grim expression and felt that Elspeth was doomed.You are on your own with this one, Elspeth…After Callum had left, Lisa felt something was wrong with her, as her body was getting hotter. At that moment, she was suspicious of the powder the director had sprinkled over her. Since it was a crucial moment, she didn’t have the time to think about it. However, judging by her experience, this was an aphrodisiac, not a poison!As soon as she thought about it, her whole body went limp. It was as if her bone had dissolved as she melted on the ground like a puddle. At this moment, someone had called her. She managed to take out her phone and saw that it was Blake.“Why can’t I get through Elspeth’s line, Lisa? I have something to tell her. Are you with her at the moment?”However, Lisa couldn’t answer him. She didn’t have the antidote to this medicine, and on top of that, Elspeth had not been making these kinds of medicine recently.“Hello? Are you there, Lisa? Why aren’t you answering me? Have you fallen asleep?” Blake bombarded her with questions.Then, Lisa let out a muffled moan. It was soft and weak.“Aren’t you awake? Lisa?” As Blake heard the noises coming from the phone, he felt something wrong. Then, he seemed to have figured out what was happening and asked seriously, “Are you in trouble, Lisa? If yes, hum in response.”Hearing his words, Lisa hummed in response.At this moment, Blake could tell that Lisa had been drugged by the noise she had made.Lisa also knew that she would be making weird noises. It was embarrassing enough for her to do what Blake had told her.“Okay. Don’t say anything, and don’t hang up. I’ll be there as soon as possible.”When Callum bought this villa, Blake laughed at him for doing something unnecessary. However, never would he think that it would come in handy.After Lisa had heard his orders, she nodded and kept quiet. As she leaned against the sofa, she could feel her body burning.In the meantime, Elspeth was at the nearby restaurant. It was her first time there, and to be honest, it was a mess. However, the messier the place was, the tastier its food was.“It’s right in there. This cheap restaurant is not what you have experienced before, so you might not be used to it,” Jaxon said with a smile.Elspeth could hear a hint of embarrassment in his voice and replied, “It’s fine. I had eaten hardtacks before, not to mention the cheap restaurant.” Seeing that Elspeth was curious about the place, Jaxon felt less anxious.“Come on. It’s this place.”As he spoke, he took her to an old restaurant. The words on the board were blurred, but she could still tell that it had ‘Wilcox Restaurant’ on it.“The owner of this restaurant is also a Wilcox?”Hearing her words, Jaxon smiled and said, “You are
