Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 600 He Is Lying

Yelena turned around and looked at Elspeth with a confused expression. "Why are you laughing, Elspeth?"

"I'm just laughing because someone is lying."

When Yelena heard her words, she knew whom Elspeth was talking about. Then, she turned around and looked at

Federick. "Did you lie to me?"

"Yes." Federick felt embarrassed when his bluff was exposed.

"Why haven't you been looking for a girlfriend?" Yelena couldn't understand why Federick was reluctant to tell her

the truth.

"That's because—" Just as Federick was about to say something, someone entered the room. When Federick

noticed this, he immediately stopped talking. On the other hand, Yelena's attention was already on the person.

"You're here, Hank!" Yelena rushed into his arms quickly.

Hank's cold expression softened as he hugged her tightly. "Don't you dare enter such a dangerous place alone next

time, do you understand?"

"Okay. Still, the toilet isn't a dangerous place," Yelena mumbled. When Hank heard her mumbling, he pinched her

nose and asked, "What did you just say?"

"I got it. It won't ever happen again," said Yelena softly as she lowered her head.

"While you guys are being all lovey-dovey, can you please think about us?" Elspeth said in amusement.

Hearing her words, Yelena realized she was being clingy at an inappropriate time. Thus, she got off from Hank.

"It looks like you have a good relationship." Federick smiled.

When Hank entered the room, he immediately noticed Federick lying on the bed. At that moment, he sensed that

something was different about him. Then, he saw the love in Federick's eyes when the latter looked at Yelena. Thus,

he deliberately showed affection toward Yelena the moment he entered the room. As expected, he saw the pain in

Federick's eyes.

Although Hank was happy, he felt slightly annoyed that Yelena had many admirers.

"Of course." Hank raised his head like a proud peacock.

Hearing their conversation, Yelena realized the two men didn't know each other. Then, she dragged Hank toward

the bed and introduced, "This is Federick, my high school classmate. He's the one who saved my life." Yelena was

grateful as she told Hank about Federick's doings.

When Hank heard that Federick was Yelena's lifesaver, his expression softened despite knowing that Federick had

feelings for Yelena. "Thank you for saving Yelena. If you need any help, just let me know. I will try my best to fulfill

it."

Federick didn't need anything. However, he couldn't help but joke when he saw Hank's expression. "If that's the

case, I have something I want." He looked around and landed his gaze on Yelena. "Why don't you give me your

girlfriend, Mr. Damazio? I'm pretty interested in her."

Hank didn't expect him to say such words in public. In that split second, his face turned grim, and his voice was

stern. "Some jokes aren't meant to be said, Mr. Seanzy."

Federick knew this, but he didn't back down. "It's just a joke. Why do you care so much, Mr. Damazio?"

On the other hand, Yelena sensed that something was wrong and seemed to realize something. Then, she stood

between them and said, "Alright, guys. Federick was just kidding, Hank."

Initially, Hank was going to repay Federick for what he did, but he changed his mind right then.

"Alright." Hank had a grim expression, but he could only suppress his anger since many people were in the room.

Noticing the tense atmosphere between the two men, Elspeth gave Yelena a look and said, "You have done so

much, Yelena. Why don't you head back with Hank first? He spent a lot of time and effort searching for you."

Federick curled his fingers slightly when he heard Elspeth's words.

"Alright, then." Yelena immediately knew what Elspeth meant. Then, she wrapped her arms around Hank and left.

Hank hummed in satisfaction before leaving with the woman.

When the duo left, the atmosphere lightened a bit. Callum sat beside the bed and started talking to Federick.

"Why did you suddenly become a secretary at such a place, Federick?"

Callum and Federick were childhood best friends. He remembered that Federick had studied abroad when he was

young. After some time, he returned and immediately opened a publishing house. Hence, Callum never expected

that he would become a secretary at such a remote place.

Federick smiled and replied, "Here's the thing. Our company is writing a series of s of the same genre, and we

need some inspiration. Hence, I asked my dad to help me become a secretary for a village."

"And he just sent you there?" Callum was shocked.

"Well, not quite. Initially, he refused my request. However, after begging him for some time, he obliged and told me

to return within two years."

"Won't he be worried sick if you went home injured?" Callum asked worriedly as he looked at Federick's wounds.

"You can't tell him about this matter. Otherwise, my company will be gone." Federick knew what his father was

capable of. Although his father was strict, he loved Federick to the fullest. Thus, if his father were to know that he

had been severely injured, he would do anything to avenge Federick. Moreover, he might think Federick was

unsuitable to start a business and forcefully shut down his company.

"I'll keep this a secret. If your father asks about it, just tell him you are unwell due to the environment. In the

meantime, I happened to be traveling, so I brought you with me."

"Thanks." Federick bumped his fist with Callum's. He knew that Callum was a friend he could count on.

"No worries. What are you going to do next? Are you going back to the publishing house?"

Federick nodded and replied, "I will return to the publishing house. I promised my dad I would accept the family's

engagement after two years."

"Engagement?" Callum was in disbelief. "How are you willing to marry someone you have no feelings for when you

are such a carefree and wild person?"

Federick had the most freedom among them. At times, Callum even envied him. However, he never expected

Federick to accept his family's engagement.
