Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 280

Without flinching, Elspeth turned her attention to Emma and smiled a bloodthirsty grin. “I have tolerated you for a

long time, Emma. Are you sure you want to continue angering me?”

Suddenly, Emma felt shivers run down her spine at the sight of her, but she kept her back straight because she still

had the upper hand. “You’re the one who is in the wrong here. Enough with the nonsense.”

“Do you see me trembling in fear? Send it if you have the courage, Emma, but if you can’t bring yourself to do so,

then stop bothering me.”

In response, Emma huffed coldly, “Who said I couldn’t?” She then initiated a chat with Callum and prepared to send

the video to him.

Nevertheless, Elspeth remained calm as if nothing had happened.

Soon, Emma’s face twisted into an ugly look. “He blocked me… Did you do this?” She had not expected Elspeth to

have such a trump card in her sleeve.

“It’s fine. Cal will see it eventually.” Emma ran her fingers through her hair as a radiant smile spread across her

face. “Tomorrow, I will hand-deliver the video to him personally.”

Then, Elspeth raised her head and glanced at the entrance, which was immediately locked from the inside. “Before

coming here to trouble me, did it ever occur to you that this is my domain?” she asked.

At that moment, Emma’s smile immediately faded. “What do you want, Elspeth?” All of a sudden, she felt anxious.

She believed Elspeth would beg and plead in fear because she possessed the upper hand. However, she never

anticipated the unexpected turn of events.

“What do I want? I only want to properly welcome you.” Following that, Elspeth smirked and waved her hand. Soon,

a few burly, fierce-looking men approached them.

The sight made Emma’s legs tremble in fear. So, she backed off a few steps before making a break for it, but she

ended up running straight into a muscular chest and fell on the floor.

“Who’s this, Elspeth?”

It turned out that the person Emma had run into was a man named Gilbert Payne. He was a large man with

exceptionally toned muscles. Moreover, he exemplified the ideal tough guy every girl fantasizes about.

“This is someone who bothers me every single day. She gives me such a headache.”

“What’s her name?” He could not help but notice that Emma looked vaguely familiar, so he inquired.

“Emma Walker,” Elspeth answered.

Then, he squinted his eyes and froze. “Elspeth, can we not do anything to her?”

“Why? Do you like her? I’m warning you; she’s a very evil woman who has gotten together with many men by now.”

She frowned in disgust.

“Of course not. I’m not interested in her.” Gilbert frowned and lifted Emma’s chin to stare at her face. A few

seconds later, he withdrew his hand. “However, I am extremely interested in someone close to her.”

Suddenly, Emma was so humiliated that she could not raise her head. When she glanced at Elspeth, hate burned in

her. How dare she embarrass me in front of so many people! I will never forgive her. With that in mind, she allowed

a hint of meekness in her eyes and looked at him. “Sir, it’s not as she says. She’s the one bothering me. I—”

“You don’t have to say anything to me,” Gilbert interrupted. “I’m not interested.” His words confused everyone

around him. He did not like her, yet he did not want anything to happen to her; what were his intentions?

“Ah!” Emma’s face went stark pale as her pounding heart sank. He is not here to save me.

Suddenly, Elspeth scoffed coldly, “Fine. Since you asked, I’ll let her go unscathed. Still, I want that video on her

phone to be deleted.”

He nodded and said, “That is none of my business.”

She then looked at Emma, who was on the floor, and sneered, “Give me your phone.”

That was the only thing she could use to smear Elspeth’s reputation, so she refused to hand it over. However,

Elspeth was standing right before her with a spine-chilling smile on her lips. When Emma saw that, she did not dare

to hide her phone anymore, so she had no choice but to hand it over.

Later, Elspeth reached for the phone and tapped into the gallery app. As expected, there was a video recording of

the entire incident, and Gilbert was even included in the footage. Soon, with a few more taps, all relevant photos

and videos were deleted. Before throwing Emma’s phone back, she even emptied the trash section.

“Well, I’ll be leaving her to you now.” She languidly stretched before leaving the room.

Then, he nodded before glancing at the other men. “Bring her to my room.”

After hearing that, Emma gulped loudly. “Where are you taking me to?”

Despite her fear, she was still convinced that Gilbert was enthralled by her. Otherwise, why would he have her

brought back to his room? As expected, all men were great actors. They might appear virtuous on the surface, but

every one of them was a beast.

Afterward, she gave him a thorough once-over and pondered, It won’t be such a bad idea to do the deed with him.

Soon, all her fantasies vanished after she was thrown into his room.

Meanwhile, he stared down at her in the room with hatred flashing in his eyes. “You have a younger sister called

Ginna, right?”

“Y-Yes, but she’s currently abroad. I have not seen her in a long time.” Emma was being deceptive in her response.

If he knew my sister and they parted amicably, I could use that to my advantage, and he could help me in my plot

against Elspeth. However, if they split up on bad terms, I might not be a target for his rage because I haven’t seen

my sister in years.

Suddenly, Gilbert’s overwhelming anger died down a little. “Do you know of her boyfriend from abroad?”

“I don’t. Why do you ask that? Are you her boyfriend?” While Emma was happy to hear that he was his sister’s

boyfriend, she was jealous of Ginna’s luck. How could my sister have such good luck with men while I have to suffer

for years and even be shunned by Callum?

He nodded. “Yes, that’s me. Do you know where she is?”

“I don’t. Isn’t she studying abroad? What is it? Could it be—”

“You are her sister, yet you don’t even know where she is right now.” Gilbert sneered and said, “She returned about

two weeks ago.”

However, she was unaware that her sister had returned. She had been such a failure lately that Ginna would never

approach her, even after flying back home.

“Well, that’s it.” At that moment, there was a trace of exhaustion in his aloof face. “You can leave.”

Nonetheless, Emma had planned to ask him a few more questions, but when she noticed his annoyance, she swiftly

dashed out of the room.

When she stepped out of the building, she immediately called Ginna. She dialed her sister’s old number, which

Ginna used after returning home. Therefore, when she made the call, it did not go through, so she kept calling.

After more than a dozen calls, she finally heard her sister’s lazy voice.

“Hey, sis. What do you want?”

There was an eerie smile on Emma’s face. “I need your help, Ginna.”
