Love's Perfect Match

Meeting Isabel’s pure and innocent smile, Elspeth suddenly felt much better. “Oh, nothing. I was just wondering why today’s cooking smells so terrible.”

The next second, a chili hit her head, and Elspeth looked in the direction the chili came from to find Arthur wearing a half-smile, looking grimly at her not far away. “What was that, Elspeth?”

The young woman immediately realized she had spoken too loudly just now, and she hurriedly shut up. At that, she took a gander at Isabel, and the two smiled at each other.

“Actually, I think the cooking today’s not too bad…” Isabel sniffed the air in bafflement, leading Elspeth to ruffle her hair with a smile. “Alright, I was just joking. Wash your hands and get ready for dinner. I’m heading to my room. I still have something to attend to.”

“Is it the medicine? Have you made progress with it?” As brilliant as Isabel was, she guessed it immediately when she saw the glow on Elspeth’s face.

“Shh. Don’t say it even if you’ve figured it out, or it wouldn’t be a surprise anymore.” Her words upset Elspeth, and the latter ruffled the young girl’s hair with a moue.

“Thank you, Elspeth!” said Isabel, so overwhelmed with joy that her voice was shaky as she felt her somewhat mottled face.

“Aww, this is nothing.” Elspeth felt somewhat sentimental. “This is all for you. You wouldn’t have suffered this injury if you hadn’t saved me.”

Isabel nodded and scratched her head bashfully. “Well, I’ll wait for your good news.”

“Sure.” With that, Elspeth returned to her room in a brilliant mood.

Her phone rang just as she entered her room.

At that, she pulled her phone out and immediately saw the caller ID.
