Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 334

intimidating than the man despite her lower position. “Get me something to wear now!” Her clothes were soaked through and no longer wearable.Callum gave a soft cough. “It’s okay. My assistant will bring the clothes here in a moment.”Only then did Elspeth drop the matter; she stayed under the covers as neither she nor Callum would budge.Speaking of the devil, there came a sudden rat-a-tat on the door.As she didn’t have any clothes on, Elspeth burrowed under the covers without moving.Hearing the familiar knock on the door, Callum knew that his assistant had arrived, so he strode over and answered it.The assistant was standing at the door, carrying a bag of clothes with a curious expression. I just heard everything inside, and God, what a loud noise they were making. Mr. Winthrop and his wife-to-be are perhaps having a passionate exchange there. Since they’re alone in the room, they’ve got to be burning with desire, unable to tear themselves away from each other…He was still picturing it in his mind when Callum’s frosty voice rang above his head. “Give me the clothes. You may leave now.”The assistant dutifully handed over the clothes, but his eyes darted awkwardly toward the inside of the room.Seeing his micro expressions, Callum turned slightly sideways to block his view. As a result, he didn’t see anything suggestive. All he could vaguely see were the disheveled sheets at the end of the bed, but this was plenty exhilarating for him.However, Callum couldn’t stand another man’s gaze lingering on Elspeth, even if it was merely out of curiosity. “What are you looking at? Keep looking and I’ll gouge your eyes out.”Knowing that the man was anxious to protect his fiancée, the assistant replied with a chuckle, “Keep it up, Mr. Winthrop!” With that, he immediately took to his heels. Callum closed the door and tossed the bag of clothes onto the bed, signaling Elspeth to put them on. “Here, your clothes.”Elspeth dragged the bag toward her. Then, she demanded with a blush, “You turn around.”Naturally, Callum complied, turning around with his back to her.Elspeth swiftly put on the clothes, which happened to fit her perfectly. Staring at the man from behind, she felt something ease up inside her. He actually knows my size, she thought.However, such feelings didn’t last long. When she stood up, Callum looked at the white low-necked dress she was wearing, upon which his face darkened at once.Elspeth seemed to like the dress as she stood up and did a twirl in it. “This little assistant of yours has a good eye for clothes, huh?”Callum curled his lips into a smirk, his eyes frosty. “Yeah, he does have a good eye for clothes.” Seems like I’ve got to toughen him up by sending him to the branch office.Oblivious to all of this, the assistant was feeling smug, thinking he had done a great job. Little did he know he would be sent to the man-eating branch office next month for some toughening up.Returning to the subject, Callum looked at Elspeth’s face, asking, “So, can you now tell me why you’re working at such a place?”Elspeth spread her hands and explained helplessly, “I didn’t want to work at such a place either, but I need a medicinal ingredient that only Logan has possession of. I made a deal with him, where he’ll give it to me once I help him get his hands on what he wants.”Callum knitted his brows when he heard the terms of the deal. “What does he want?”Elspeth replied, “He wants the Flaming Scimitar, which belongs to the Adler Family and is now in the hands of Rayan Adler, the youngest son of the current generation of the family. He carries it with him every day, so all I have to do is take him
