Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 347 Let’s Go to Hell Together

Callum waited for a while, but there wasn’t another text message from Emma other than this one.

Noticing the instant change in his expression, Elspeth asked, “What happened?”

Not intending to hide it from her, Callum placed his phone before her right away. “Something’s up with Emma.”

Elspeth merely darted a glance at the text message before turning to look out the window expressionlessly. “I

know.”

“You know?”

Callum turned to look into her eyes. Seeing that there was nothing but mockery in them, he figured out what had

probably happened. Emma probably did something that got under her skin again, he thought. After clearing his

throat, he started the car immediately without saying another word.

Thinking that he was going to save Emma, Elspeth immediately turned to look at him in astonishment. “Wait a

minute! Don’t tell me you’re really going to save her?” she said with an involuntary note of sarcasm in her voice.

“Why would I save her? No, I’m taking you to watch the spectacle.”

He drove the car at breakneck speed. Elspeth sat in the passenger seat, her mind feeling at rest all of a sudden as

she looked at the scenery flying past the car window.

…

Callum soon found Emma’s location according to the IP address from which the text message was sent. To their

surprise, however, it didn’t belong to the basement where Elspeth had been held. Instead, it was an abandoned gas

station.

He subsequently found the location with Elspeth. As soon as they stepped out of the car, they were greeted by the

pungent smell of gasoline in the air.

Elspeth clapped her hand over her nose with a frown. She muttered, “Why do I feel like something’s wrong with this

place?”

“I feel the same.”

She could sense Callum’s nervousness as he clasped her hand.

The next second, a mocking guffaw sounded from their surroundings. “Haha…”

Hearing the familiar laughter, Elspeth looked back sharply. As she had expected, it was actually Emma!

Emma seemed to have suffered a lot of torture. Her clothes were torn and tattered, and she was barely pulling

herself together. “Never did I think you guys would actually come here after I casually sent you that message.”

Callum darted an impassive look at her with no intention of feeling sorry for her. “So, what is it? Why did you send

me that message?”

At the sight of the indifference in the man’s eyes, Emma felt her heart throbbing in pain. “You’ve remembered

everything, haven’t you?”

At this point, Callum wasn’t going to hide this from her anymore, so he nodded straightforwardly. “That’s right. I’ve

remembered everything.”

“Haha!” Only then did Emma suddenly break into a heartrending laugh. Her eyes were bulging out of their sockets

as she said, “I just knew it! If you hadn’t remembered everything all of a sudden, you wouldn’t have cared so much

about Elspeth!”

Not wanting to discuss this topic with her, Callum asked with a frown of disgust, “So what is it that you got me here

to talk about?”

“Callum, I love you so much, but why do you have to be so hung up on Elspeth?!” Emma had an incredibly

determined smile on her smudged-makeup face. “I can do whatever she’s capable of! I can even give up my life if

you want!”

Her words sounded quite gut-wrenching. However, true love wasn’t just about possession.

Reminded by her experience, Elspeth said, “Emma, you can never get hold of Callum. It’s like how you had never

captured his heart despite getting him to be with you when he lost his memories. Even if you were given ten more

years, or even a hundred… you’d still fail in the end!”

Emma’s expression changed at every word she said, and hatred flickered across her eyes. Suddenly, she lunged at

Elspeth, grabbing her wrist and holding a knife to her throat.

All of this happened so fast that even Elspeth didn’t have time to realize what was happening, let alone Callum,

whose already sullen face darkened even more. “What are you doing?!”

Emma dug the knife deeper into Elspeth’s skin while asking the man before her with reddened eyes, “What would

you do if I were the one who had a knife held to my throat? Would you be so anxious, too?”

Elspeth’s skin was more delicate than those of others in the first place, so Emma’s movement instantly made a

bleeding cut in her skin.

The smile curving Callum’s lips was indescribably chilling. “Do you know it’s against the law for you to do such a

thing?”

Emma’s hair was flapping messily in the chilly wind surrounding them, which made her look even more like a

madwoman when she laughed. “I’m not even afraid of death, so why would I be afraid of breaking the law?!” She

freed one hand and pulled at Elspeth’s face with all her might, producing a red bruise on it soon afterward. “Your

skin’s so tender. No wonder he likes you so much.”

“Are you crazy?” Elspeth couldn’t help but swear as her face hurt from being pulled at.

Emma gradually tightened her icy grip on the back of her neck. “Yeah, I’m crazy. You know what? Rayan Adler got a

bunch of people to rape me, and they all had STDs! You should’ve been the one who suffered these things. Why did

they end up happening to me instead?!”

Elspeth looked at her calmly with an imperturbable look in her eyes. “I told you that I won’t let anyone get away

with even the slightest harm done to me.”

“How could you have the cheek to say that? You’re the one who came between Callum and me! Callum and I were

so deeply in love before; it was you who showed up and destroyed our relationship!”

Not bothering to waste time talking to Emma, Elspeth shot a glance at Callum, signaling him to get ready. Then, the

instant Emma burst into hysterical laughter, she swiftly clenched the former’s hand that was holding the knife

before prying the knife away from her.

Callum came forward and kicked Emma aside while protecting Elspeth carefully. “Are you alright?”

Only then did Elspeth feel the slight pain in her neck, which she could still endure. She nodded, saying, “I’m fine.”

Having been kicked to the ground, Emma looked up to see Callum caring for Elspeth. She had never experienced

this before, nor had she ever seen such a nervous look in his eyes. At that instant, all her feelings for the man

vanished completely before turning into bitter hatred. “Callum, you’ll definitely regret choosing Elspeth!”

Callum merely threw an impassive look at her with a hint of indifference in his eyes. “I won’t regret it, but you

should go to jail for what you did.”

Going to jail?

Just then, police sirens began wailing around them.

“Turns out you hate me that much. To think I’m so laughable…” Emma wiped the tears off the corners of her eyes

before looking up at the man seriously. “I have one question for you. Answer me. Have you ever loved me?”

There was no doubt about the answer to this question. Callum blurted out without thinking, “No, I’ve never loved

you.”

“But I’m your first love! Haven’t you ever loved me?”

Callum carefully recalled the time he and Emma had spent together, but those memories were blurred; he even

had difficulty remembering them clearly. “I only went out with you on a whim, but we’ve been through ever since

you cheated on me.”

His words cleared Emma’s head like an ice-cold brick. She looked up with even crazier hatred in her eyes, saying,

“Well, in that case, just go to hell with me!”
