Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 492 Within His Plan

Callum took a step forward and drew her into his embrace. He had wanted to hug her tightly, but he was soon

stopped by a hand on his chest.

Elspeth was resisting him as she didn't know what to do with the situation now.

"This is inappropriate," she mumbled, her mind in a mess. She wanted to accept his hug, but she didn't think she

was capable of doing so.

"There's nothing inappropriate about this." Callum placed his head on her shoulder and murmured in a hoarse

voice, "If… If we are really related by blood, it isn't an issue for cousins to hug each other either."

Though he was right, both of them knew exactly why they were hugging.

After a long pause, Callum continued, "Let us do a DNA test. I don't want to leave things the way they are."

"Okay."

Even though they both knew there was a slim chance of getting their desired outcome, they wanted to give it one

last shot.

"I'll go now, then."

"Okay."

Elspeth plucked a few strands of her hair. After handing them to him, she stood there and watched him walk away.

…

Callum took the samples for the DNA test to a nearby hospital, but he ran into someone he didn't want to meet.

"Hello, Callum! It's been a long time since we last met. You're always in good health, so why am I seeing you in the

hospital again?" Arthur spoke with an arrogant grin on his face.

His grin clearly had a hidden meaning.

After learning that Elspeth's mother had gone to the Winthrop Family, he had already guessed why Callum was

here.

He simply refuses to accept that Elspeth and he are related by blood and wants to test it for himself! Until now,

Callum has been reluctant to accept the truth. He truly loves Elspeth more than I thought.

"It's none of your concern." Callum gave Arthur a stern glare, not wanting to continue the conversation.

"Don't be so irritated. I know you're upset right now. I suppose it's because you discovered you're blood relatives

with your wife, right?"

Callum had his right fist clenched, but his expression remained composed. "If there's nothing else, I'm leaving now."

"Don't act as if you're unconcerned. I know you're worried, but what can you do? Absurd things do happen,

including the separation of a deeply in love couple as a result of this. Ridiculous, isn't it?" Arthur deliberately spoke

sarcastically, wanting to see Callum's defeated expression.

However, no matter what he said, Callum maintained his cool.

Arthur was indignant when he saw this and he sighed flatly. "Fine. You're really calm."

"Are you done? If you are, I'm leaving now."

Just as Callum turned around and was about to leave, Arthur stopped him and said, "To tell you the truth, this was

arranged by me."

Callum came to a halt, waiting to hear what Arthur had to say next.

"I deliberately sent Elspeth's mother to her side for both of you to realize that you two are blood-related and can't

be together."

This was a cruel plan devised by Arthur. He was well aware that it would be more painful for both Callum and

Elspeth to discover for themselves that they were blood-related and couldn't be together, rather than to have

Arthur tell them.

However, Callum still wasn't agitated by Arthur's words. If this is his plan, he is indeed quite smart. At least he isn't

as dumb as I thought him to be.

"So, you see, Callum, you and Elspeth aren't meant for each other. Let Elspeth be with me and I will take good care

of her. You don't have to worry."

Arthur had an uncanny ability to add fuel to the fire; he knew exactly what to say to make Callum feel even worse.

"Even if she isn't with me, she won't like you either. You can stop dreaming about it."

Knowing Elspeth, she would never be attracted to Arthur.

This was why Callum had never considered Arthur to be a threat.

When Arthur heard this, the smile on his face immediately vanished and he muttered through gritted teeth, "You

can't be certain. You and she can never be together, and once both of you are separated, I'll have a chance."

"What a good imagination you have," Callum pointed out before turning around and leaving without any hesitation.

Seeing him unwavering, Arthur, who initially wanted to make Callum feel defeated, now felt defeated himself.

He loathed Callum's ability to remain calm in any situation. Nevertheless, he knew what he should do as his next

step.

Arthur sat in an inconspicuous corner and began observing his surroundings. After he was certain that Callum had

left the hospital, he went straight into the laboratory.

The moment he opened the door, the doctor inside was surprised to see him. "Hey Arthur, what brings you here?"

Arthur was one of the most well-known seniors during his university days. Ever since he joined the school, no one

had ever surpassed his achievements. The lecturers repeatedly showed his photo to future students, and some of

them even boasted about having taught or talked to Arthur when he was in school.

And of course, his good looks were another reason for his popularity, particularly among females.

After all, who wouldn't like an attractive, elegant man who always had a smile on his face?

He was said to be so popular that many young female students purposefully chose the electives he had chosen just

to be in the same class as him, no matter how difficult the subjects were.

However, it was a pity that Arthur did not continue to practice medicine and appeared to have vanished from the

medical field.

As such, seeing him today made the doctor in the laboratory thrilled.

Presently, Arthur smiled and said softly, "Nothing much. I'm just here to look around and get some medicine."

Though he did not know this doctor, he could tell by the man's tone how he felt about him. Hence, he relaxed a little

as well.

The doctor then quickly stood up, took a chair for Arthur, and poured him a glass of water.

"I'm delighted to have you here, Arthur. If there's anything I can do for you, please do not hesitate to tell me. I'll do

my best to assist."

To that, Arthur simply waved his hand dismissively. "It's fine. I don't need your assistance with anything. However, I

just want to know if my brother was here earlier."

His brother? The doctor tried to recall what happened earlier, and he suddenly realized something. Oh, the person

who registered earlier is indeed Callum Winthrop, the eldest son of the Winthrop Family, which means he's Arthur's

brother.

"Yes. He handed me some samples and wanted me to run a DNA test to see if they were blood-related."

He then couldn't contain his curiosity and continued, "Why does Mr. Winthrop need to perform a DNA test? Do the

Winthrops have any other children besides their own?"

"What exactly are you saying? Don't spread rumors!" Arthur smilingly chided.

The doctor knew when to stop as well as he shrank back and nodded.

Blinking, Arthur then asked, "Could you let me have a look at the samples he gave?"
