Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 274

to you, which is why you left the venue in a dazed state.”Elspeth felt her back stiffen. She turned around and stared at Arthur. All of a sudden, she had a premonition.Arthur never appeared again after Eric taught him a lesson previously.Elspeth initially thought that he had learned his lesson, so she was surprised to realize that he had discovered one of her weaknesses.“What are you trying to say?”“Haven’t you been curious about your mother’s condition? I’m here to give you a clue.”Arthur smiled faintly. If Elspeth hadn’t seen him acting ruthlessly before, she would’ve thought that he was a pushover.“What is the clue?”Arthur spread his hands. “Haven’t I already given it to you? I tried very hard to get the necklace. Doesn’t it belong to your mother?”Elspeth balled up her fists, but she never let her emotions show on her face. With a grim expression, she questioned, “Where did you get this necklace?”“Well… Haha. It took me a lot of effort to get it. Do you want to know?”“Stop keeping me on tenterhooks.” Elspeth cracked her knuckles as though trying to threaten him. “Tell me straight away if you’re tactful. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being harsh on you.”Instead of getting frightened, Arthur laughed arrogantly. “Come on, then. If you dare beat me up, you’ll never find any information about your mother.” Arthur was confident that Elspeth wouldn’t dare to make a move on him, so he was at ease.“What do you want, then?”It had come to a point where Elspeth no longer needed to be polite with him.“Don’t you know what I want?” Arthur looked at her and put on an inscrutable smile. “Break up with Callum, and I’ll tell you everything.”Elspeth put on a comical expression. “You have lost the right to inherit the Winthrop Family’s wealth. What’s the point of you making me break up with Callum?”“You’ll never get it. I hate Callum. As long as you break up with him, he’ll be downcast. I love seeing him suffer, and I’ll be pleased that way.”When Arthur envisioned Callum looking miserable after the breakup, he felt thrilled.“If that’s your plan, forget it. I won’t agree to it.”She wasn’t in a rush to look for her mother.At any rate, she wouldn’t want to affect her relationship with Callum for a so-called clue.Just as she was ready to leave, Arthur broke another piece of shocking news to her. “Your mother is in danger. Don’t you want to know where she is?”Elspeth’s face fell. “How do you know?”“Hahaha, I said that I’ll only tell you everything after you break up with Callum.”Elspeth hung her head low as a hint of hesitation flashed across her eyes.“Don’t listen to his nonsense, Elspeth.”The moment Callum arrived, he saw Arthur trying to brainwash Elspeth.How dare Arthur try to make Elspeth break up with me?! Is he sick of living?Callum’s gaze darkened as he looked coldly at Arthur.“Callum.” Upon the man’s arrival, Elspeth stood beside him and lowered her head meekly. “I didn’t mean to run away. I just discovered a trace that might lead me to find my mother.”Fortunately, Elspeth didn’t fall into Arthur’s trap. Otherwise, she would’ve been caught red-handed by Callum.“Don’t worry. I understand.” Callum stroked her head and motioned for her to calm down.“Haha. I knew you wouldn’t—”“I’ll punish you when we get home.” Callum directly announced that she was guilty.Elspeth was petrified, thinking that the man wouldn’t let her off easily this time.“You’re here as well, Callum. What a coincidence.” Arthur wasn’t afraid at all. Perhaps he now had a powerful backer, so he was more confident.Callum hummed and said, “Arthur, if you dare lure Elspeth out again like this and play any tricks, I’ll dump you at the downtown of Damoria instead of just any road.”Arthur didn’t expect Callum to mock him by bringing up the humiliating incident back then.As such, his expression turned gloomy at once.It was the most humiliating thing that ever happened to him.At that time, he was stripped bare and dumped onto a street. The passers-by criticized him for being shameless. Regardless of how hard he tried, he could barely conceal his private parts. He would never want to experience that again in his life.How dare you, Callum?!“Callum, since you’ve said such things, I won’t tell you anything about Elspeth’s mother.”He wasn’t a pushover. Since he was humiliated
