Love's Perfect Match

Elspeth was startled. “How did you know that he’d taken me away?”

Logan smiled faintly while pointing at the surveillance camera above. “I knew that from watching the surveillance footage, of course. He’s been here today.”

“What about the scimitar?” Elspeth sounded rather anxious; her greatest dread was that the scimitar might have been taken away.

“I’ve put it away, so don’t worry about this,” Logan replied. Seeing how quick she was in doing her job, he couldn’t help but compliment her, “But it was really smart of you to trick him into leaving the scimitar here in such a short time.”

I’m smart, huh? No, the credit actually belongs to Callum, thought Elspeth. Seeing that Logan was in a good mood, she made her request, asking, “In that case, would you still give me the medicinal ingredient as you promised me before?”

Seeing how serious she looked, Logan couldn’t help but reply with a laugh, “The promise is still valid, of course. That’s what I promised you, and I’m not someone who goes back on my word.” With that, he turned back to the counter and took a small box out of the chest inside before handing it to her. “The medicinal ingredient you want is in here. Just take it.”

Elspeth carefully put it away before smiling at him. “Thank you, Mr. Chapman. Well, then, I won’t come here anymore.”

“Are you really not coming here anymore?” Logan suddenly felt like joking with her before she left. “Well, that’s a shame. Our establishment is gonna lose another pretty face.”

Pretty face… Is he referring to how I previously worked here as a hostess? Elspeth felt so embarrassed that she wished the ground could open and swallow her up. “No, that’s not the case. I don’t deserve your compliment.”

Logan merely smiled instead of teasing her again. “I’m not flattering you. Look at those men who came here; their eyes were glued to you as soon as they saw you.”

Not wanting to continue the subject, Elspeth lifted her arm and looked at her watch. Then, she cleared her throat, saying, “Alright, it’s getting late. I gotta go.”
