Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 285

“H-How did you get your hands on these?” Emma gulped as she was suddenly overcome with anxiety.

It was photographs of her and Arthur, some of which were taken during their hotel stay. If these photos were

leaked, she could never dream about paving a new life again!

However, she could not afford to jeopardize her career, so she asked seriously, “How did you get these photos?”

“Easy. I even have a recording of you two. Wanna listen to it, Emma?”

While Elspeth leisurely skimmed through the recordings on her phone, Emma broke out in a cold sweat.

“No, thanks.”

Suddenly, Emma surveyed the surrounding crowd and felt a deep, dark hatred fill her heart. Elspeth must be doing

this on purpose! She purposefully chose such an open space to humiliate me!

“So, do you still want to sign the business transfer agreement, Miss Walker?” Elspeth chuckled mockingly. Now that

the matter was a foregone conclusion, Emma only asked for trouble when she agreed to meet them that day.

“Let’s put this matter on hold for the time being. I’ll think about it again.” Emma was so enraged that she trembled

when she thought about passing up such a rare opportunity. Since she was the lone wolf in the confrontation, she

could not afford to lose her cool, so she had to endure the demeaning treatment.

She then stood up and attempted to leave, but suddenly, a mocking sneer came from behind her. “How could we

give up on the contract today? Let’s sit and have a good chat.”

Arthur appeared out of nowhere, but the calm smile on his face was enough to make people feel uncomfortable.

Afterward, he pulled the chair beside Emma and took a seat.

“Arthur!” The moment she noticed him, she instantly brightened up. “What brings you here?”

Then, he ruffled her hair with a smile and replied, “I came over to check on the situation since I was free. What’s

the matter? Isn’t it going well?”

“T-They claimed to have photos of us spending the night at a hotel, but I think they are all edited. They also

threatened me and didn’t let me sign the contract.”

“Really?” His face darkened gradually upon hearing that.

“Be careful with your words, Emma. Don’t you feel guilty when saying that? How can you claim that the photos are

edited? Shall I get someone to identify them and prove they aren’t edited?” Elspeth instantly started mocking

Emma until Emma turned red due to embarrassment.

“Whether or not the photos are edited isn’t important. What’s important is that you’ve threatened Emma, haven’t

you?”

When Arthur retorted, Elspeth’s frown deepened. Then, she barked, “What are you talking about? Weren’t you the

one who provoked us first? Let’s be reasonable here.”

“Reason? Do you think I’m reasonable after knowing me for years?” His voice carried a trace of contempt.

“Nope. In that case, I have nothing to say to you. Let’s go, Callum.”

Following that, she stood up and intended to leave but was suddenly stopped by Arthur.

“Do you believe you can leave like that?”

Elspeth burst out laughing. “Arthur, who do you think you are? Who are you to tell us to leave or not?”

He did not seem to be bothered by her response. Following a clap, the people from surrounding tables suddenly

took their jackets off and revealed tight black shirts.

“Sorry to tell you that I’ve reserved the whole place today since I’m in a good mood. Why don’t you two sign the

contract obediently before you leave? Otherwise…” Then, Arthur glanced at the blue sea and sneered, “I heard

there are sharks in the sea. Should I throw you two in as baits for them?”

When Elspeth heard that, she gritted her teeth and scolded, “What a shameless beast you are!”

“Me? Shameless? When I was stripped of my clothes and abandoned on the road, did anyone offer me help? What

about the countless times I’ve been wronged previously? I endured it all on my own. How dare you speak ill of

me?!” He was so enraged that he was on the verge of losing his mind when he said those words, but then he broke

into an eerie smile.

“You might regret doing this, Arthur Winthrop.”

“Regret? Why would I? I would be happy to see the two of you dead. I’m not killing you now because I haven’t had

enough fun. Moreover, you must compensate me for everything I have endured!”

Afterward, Arthur glanced at the men beside him and commanded indifferently, “Strip them off their clothes and

throw them in the middle of the restaurant for everyone to see.”

Then, he glanced at the tall and burly man beside him and snickered cruelly, “And you, didn’t you say you wanted a

taste of the beauty? Go and smother Elspeth with your love.”

Receiving the instructions, the man grinned lewdly and slowly walked toward her.

“Are you insane, Arthur?!”

Arthur ignored Elspeth’s words and ordered the remaining men to advance. “What are you standing there for?

Attack!”

Meanwhile, several of them then rushed toward Callum. He dodged sideways and kicked one of them on the back.

“Don’t touch me, you disgusting piece of sh*t.”

“Hah. I love that clean freak side of yours! It must be fun to embarrass you!”

Arthur then hinted at the person next to him with a wink. “Don’t you fancy hot men? Go on. Isn’t my brother good

enough for you?”

Callum’s expression darkened upon hearing that, and he warned, “Don’t regret this, Arthur.”

Arthur sneered, “Regret what? I haven’t even had enough of this. If I can successfully eliminate both of you, I will

not think twice about ending my life!”

When Elspeth saw someone dashing towards her, she kicked him in the groin out of desperation. Then, she roared,

“Get lost!”

Suddenly, a groan escaped the man’s lips as he instinctively covered his groin. Damn, why is this woman so

strong?!

At that moment, she saw her chance and dodged to stand next to Callum.

“Stop struggling, you two.”

Then, Arthur flicked his wrists and urged, “I’ll give you one last chance. Sign the contract, or don’t blame me for

being rude.”

“Pfft. Don’t even think about it!” Elspeth spat.

“Fine. If that’s the case, so be it.” He shook his head regretfully and waved his hand as a signal. Taking the hint, the

few burly men swung their wooden sticks at them!

Seeing how they were being cornered, Callum had no choice but to retreat to reduce the impact while keeping

Elspeth behind him.

With a loud bang, four wooden sticks hit Callum’s back simultaneously. His expression changed drastically as he

spat out a mouthful of blood.

“Callum!”

Following the assault, Elspeth stood there in shock. I never imagined he’d take such a heavy blow in my stead.

Furthermore, if I bear the brunt of the impact, he will avoid serious injury.

After that, she quickly helped Callum sit down before she stood up and clenched her fists. “Do you know whom

you’re messing with, Arthur?”

Arthur snickered in response. “Who? The president of Azure? Nancy Star? The e-sports expert? Or the designer?”
