Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 130

“Alright, Max. You should go back to university now. I’ll take care of Dad.” When Callum suddenly realized Max had

skipped classes to come to the hospital, he was furious.

“I’ll take care of Dad, Callum. Since you’re busy with work, you should go back to the company.” Max would usually

obey Callum, but he was suddenly obstinate at this point.

“Alright, stop arguing. Since I’m jobless now, I’ll look after him. Both of you should go and do your own things.”

There was no doubt that Blake’s words were convincing.

After giving it some thought, Callum nodded in agreement. He sent Max back to university first. The moment they

arrived at the entrance, Max saw a familiar figure.

Elspeth recognized her as well. She exclaimed, “Isn’t that Yelena?”

At that moment, Yelena was holding a man’s hand as they shuffled toward the entrance.

Max found the man familiar. He soon recalled that he was an infamous thug in the university. However, he was

handsome. As such, even though he was a rascal, many women still fell head over heels for him.

“Is Yelena in love?” The moment Elspeth finished speaking, she quickly covered her mouth as she realized she had

said something wrong.

It was a well-known fact that Yelena had been wooing Max. Even if she was a flirtatious person, she couldn’t

possibly fall in love with someone else barely two weeks later.

“I don’t care whether she’s in love.” Max didn’t seem to mind it as he looked away, but he still paid attention to

them from the corner of his eye.

Suddenly, the man extended his hands and pulled Yelena into his embrace.

Unable to take it anymore, Max strode forward and took Yelena’s hand before yelling, “Yelena, a woman like you is

not supposed to make out with another man on the streets in broad daylight!”

A hint of surprise flashed across Yelena’s face when she realized it was Max, but she was puzzled as to why he

seemed to be criticizing her. “What are you talking about? Do you mean the man beside me? He’s-”

When the man saw how anxious Max was, he realized something as he wrapped his arm around Yelena’s shoulders.

“Are you Max? Yelena has mentioned you on several occasions. You’re pretty

famous in our university.”

“I know who you are; you’re an infamous thug.” Max had always been sharp-tongued, and he

was especially displeased when he saw the man’s arm around Yelena’s shoulders.

Yelena glared at him. “Who are you calling a thug?”

“What’s wrong? Are you unhappy because I called your lover a thug?” Max snorted. “You told me you liked me a

few days ago and wanted to be my girlfriend, yet you’re making out with another man here. You’re pretty

interesting.”

As he doubted Yelena’s sincerity, she was so anxious that she was on the brink of breaking into tears. Nonetheless,

after pondering for a moment, she realized Max was rarely so agitated. Is it possible that he’s jealous after seeing

me with another man? Does he like me?

Upon realizing the truth, she felt a sense of confidence rising within her. “Max, regardless of whom I’m seeing, what

does it have anything to do with you?”

“Fine, then. Yelena, I don’t care whom you fall in love with, but do you know who he is? He’s an infamous scoundrel

in our university. Are you sure you want to be with him?” Then, Max swept a dispassionate glance over them.

“You’ve lost my respect.”

Yelena felt aggrieved. Just as she was ready to refute him, Max suddenly turned around and left as he wasn’t willing

to hear what she had to say.

“Max!”

Max entered the university without sparing her another glance.

“What kind of a man have you fallen in love with? He doesn’t respect you at all, and he’s conceited. I think you’d

better give up.” The man lifted his head and blew his fringe away from his face, looking indeed like a thug.

However, his gesture didn’t make him look indecent. Instead, he appeared somewhat attractive.

“Why did you agitate him just now, Finn?” Yelena was frustrated. It was because of Finn’s provocation that Max

became furious and left.

to attend. Tell my mom that I didn’t play truant. I’m going in now.” The moment he finished speaking, he entered

the university as well.

Suddenly, Yelena turned around and saw Elspeth and Callum not far away. After becoming startled for a moment,

she asked, “Why are you here?”

Hearing that, Elspeth couldn’t help breaking into laughter. “If we weren’t here, we wouldn’t have

witnessed such a funny misunderstanding.”

“Did you guys hear everything?” Yelena hung her head low with a red face. It seemed that they

had also seen her using Finn to lie to Max.

“Max is a hot-tempered and sharp-tongued guy, so you should spend some time trying to change him for the

better. If you want to get together with him, you have to work on that.” Elspeth

winked at her as a form of encouragement.

Yelena nodded. “I got it, Elspeth. Anyway, there’s something I need you to help me with.”

“What’s the matter?”

A bashful Yelena replied, “The thing is… it’ll be my 18th birthday next Wednesday. I’d like to invite Max to my

birthday party. Can you make him attend?”

“Why don’t you personally invite him?”

Yelena let out a sigh. “I’ve tried approaching him many times, but he isn’t willing to talk to me. In that case, how am

I supposed to invite him to my birthday party? Please come up with a way to

make him attend my birthday party without him knowing anything about it.”

Elspeth agreed to it.

After Yelena was gone, Elspeth and Callum returned to the Winthrop Group.

On the same day, Callum held a meeting that all the managers attended. During the meeting, he directly appointed

Elspeth as the vice president.

Alaina was the first to object to the appointment. Elspeth hadn’t seen Alaina for a few days, and

she realized the latter had become even more harsh and unkind.

has never been a vice president. Moreover, she hasn’t even joined the company and doesn’t have a proper job title.

If you rashly make her the vice president, it’ll break the rules.”

Elspeth had already expected Alaina to say such things, so she refuted with a smile, “Don’t you think there’s

something wrong with what you’ve said, Miss Sullivan? Weren’t you directly promoted to a director when you were

just an ordinary employee back then? Oh, I’ve almost forgotten that you were just lucky. You weren’t even

promoted because you had the talent. Therefore, it’s only normal that you can’t see sense.”

When Alaina heard her mockery, her face turned livid in an instant. “Don’t you think you’ve crossed the line,

Elspeth? Are you saying that I wasn’t talented enough to get promoted? 1 graduated from the best university in

Damoria as a design major. I’m very much qualified to be the director of the Design Department.”

Alaina was confident whenever she brought up her academic qualifications. She was a bright person, so what was

wrong with her becoming the director of the Design Department?
