Love's Perfect Match

After lunch, Lily came to Elspeth's office and whispered, "I made the call, Miss Elspeth, but he wouldn't talk to me. He said you'd have to call and ask him for a meetup yourself."

That little… Elspeth massaged her forehead in irritation. "I see. You may leave now. I'll call him later."

There's nothing I can do here now. Lily left soon after.

Thinking it would be hard to explain things over a phone call, Elspeth decided to visit him instead. He's not a patient person, after all, she thought.

It was 3.00PM when someone knocked on Edmund's door. He took the door, wearing nothing but a pair of pants. His upper body was revealed.

Elspeth shoved him out of the way and entered the room like it was her house. She came to the couch and saw a bra hanging on it. A frown formed on her face. "Looking intense."

"Why did you come here?"

"To see you, duh." She glanced at the bedroom and saw the silhouette of a woman inside.

"What happened? You're no womanizer."

Edmund plopped down impatiently and cracked a bottle of soda open. "None of your business," he responded, looking at her.

"Anyway, I'm not here to talk about that." She looked into the bedroom again. "But you should tell her to leave."

Exasperated, he stood up and pulled the bedroom door open, revealing a delicate woman inside. She looked at Edmund with love in her eyes, but there was a hint of fear in her gaze.
