Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 340

Chapter 340

At ten o’clock the next morning, Elspeth was still deep in slumber when her sleep was interrupted by a phone call. She impatiently picked up, but when she heard an unknown yet familiar voice from the other end, she immediately jolted awake.

“Miss Lynwood, I’d like to treat you to lunch this afternoon. Would that be all right?” the person asked courteously.

Instantly, any remaining grumpiness she felt disappeared without a trace, and she got up to dress properly before going downstairs.

As Arthur watched Elspeth descend the stairs in a short, black off-shoulder dress from the living room, his expression became inscrutable.

“Don’t tell me you dressed up so nicely just to meet Rayan Adler?”

“Yes, I did. It’s the last day of the time limit Logan gave me. If I don’t complete my mission by today, he might not give me the herb.”

At that, Elspeth twirled in a circle, the hem of her dress rising and falling with the air. After such a long time, she essentially understood what kind of a person Logan was.

“Do you need me to come with you?” Arthur offered to tag along, which was a rare occasion for him.

“It’s fine. It’ll be too obvious if we go together; I can handle it alone.” She carelessly grabbed a piece of toast from the table and took a bite to fill her stomach, saying, “I’m not stupid.”

“I’m just worried you’d get taken advantage of,” he replied gently.

“Don’t worry about that. There’s no way he’d be able to take advantage of me.”

Naturally, she had her own methods to deal with old perverts like Rayan.

Elspeth had just descended the stairs when she saw a black Maybach parked at the entrance. An ominous sensation looming over her, she hastened toward the car, and when she saw the person inside, her face instantly fell. Callum was currently sitting inside, his glum gaze fixed intently on her.
