Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Chapter 272

a better man.Max felt his eyelids twitching. “Give me a break. Why are you all acting strangely today?”What do they mean it’s my fault? Is Yelena seeing someone now?“Don’t you know, Max? Yelena is going to meet up with Matthew tomorrow and discuss their marriage. The March Family is well-to-do, so Matthew is a perfect match for Yelena.”Max frowned. “Yelena doesn’t like him.”“Familiarity breeds fondness. I didn’t use to like Callum, but I still fell in love with him in the end.”Max’s expression darkened.“Yelena won’t do that.”“Why wouldn’t she? Yelena and I visited Harvey’s wedding dress store today and came across Emma. If you don’t believe me, you can go to their store and ask them. Yelena has always wanted to get married. She was envious when we shopped around for wedding dresses. I believe she’ll likely agree to get together with Matthew.”When they were done with dinner, Callum cleaned his lips with a napkin and rose from the chair. “I’ll deal with work matters now so that I’ll have some free time to go out with you tomorrow.”“Okay.”After Elspeth and Callum were gone, Max couldn’t take it anymore.As he glanced at Theodore and Margot, he asked doubtfully, “What’s going on?

It seems that he’s more patient than I think.”Callum took a look at the rearview mirror and replied confidently, “Look who’s behind us.”A car that obviously belonged to the Winthrops was following them, and it was rather conspicuous.“Gosh. Why didn’t he use a less conspicuous car? He’s so silly,” Elspeth said dismissively.“Perhaps he isn’t planning on hiding anything. I guess he’ll make a big fuss out of it.”Callum knew Max’s temperament all too well.Max was someone who would retaliate against those who harmed him, let alone when someone was trying to snatch his woman from him.I wonder if Matthew is strong enough to take a beating.As they each got lost in their thoughts, they soon reached their destination. Yelena had been waiting for them and beside her stood a tall Matthew in casual clothes. It was Elspeth’s first time seeing Matthew, who was Callum’s best friend.She knew that Matthew was a lawyer, and the truth was, he looked dapper.In fact, Matthew was just as good-looking as Max. His aquiline nose added a layer of delicateness to his appearance, and his golden-framed glasses made him look somewhat sexy.At any rate, he wasn’t Elspeth’s cup of tea.Elspeth’s impression of Matthew
