Love's Perfect Match

His scimitar was a family heirloom that had been passed down for many generations. How could he easily give it away?

Elspeth looked disappointed at his answer. “That’s a shame.”

“Would you mind telling me why you want this scimitar?”

Rayan was extremely curious. This scimitar was just a plain weapon with a long history. Why was she interested in it right away?

Realizing her slip of the tongue, Elspeth covered her lips and sighed. “I’m really sorry. I shouldn’t have asked you about this, but it particularly resembles one of my father’s relics, so…”

Seeing Elspeth seemed to be in a bad mood, Rayan softened his tone and conceded, “However, it is not impossible. If you really like it, I’m willing to give it to you, but… I left the box I keep the scimitar in at home. Do you mind following me back to my house to retrieve it?”

The fact that Rayan was willing to relent was the best outcome she could achieve.

When she saw the look of triumph that he failed to hide in his eyes, Elspeth knew that this would not just be a mere trip, but she nodded happily. “I don’t mind at all. I couldn’t be happier that you’re willing to give it to me, so how could I refuse to accompany you on this trip?”

“That’s great. Let’s go together.”

The two quickly left the restaurant. When they arrived at the entrance, Elspeth subconsciously looked toward the spot where Callum had parked his car, only to realize he was no longer there.

When did Callum leave?

Before she could figure it out, Rayan courteously opened the car door and invited her in.
