Love's Perfect Match

She was quiet the whole journey back home. Callum, who knew what she was thinking, casually brought up, “If you have a question, ask away.”

“I want to know what is going to happen between you and Emma.”

She had been a lot busier these days. Having to handle Michael and the problem with Jordan and Angie, Elspeth hadn’t found a chance to ask Callum about this.

“Merry meet, merry part. Since the issue has been resolved, she and I will naturally go our separate ways. We no longer have anything to do with each other.”

Elspeth was extremely satisfied with his answer.

“So?”

“So,” he solemnly explained, “I’m going to publicly refute the rumors first. Firstly, Emma and I were never really together, and she was the one who was making things up. Secondly, it is you who are, legally, my fiancée.”

“Considering how proactive you are in handling this, Mr. Winthrop, I’ll stop picking on you.”

That put a small smile on his face as he murmured, “Thank you, Mrs. Winthrop.”

“What?!” She immediately turned as red as a tomato when she heard the way he addressed her. “Who are you calling Mrs. Winthrop?!”

“It is only a matter of time before you are mine. Nothing wrong with calling you Mrs. Winthrop a little earlier. Isn’t that right, Mrs. Winthrop?”

Callum’s voice was deep and magnetic, and he sounded particularly alluring when he called her ‘Mrs. Winthrop’. It was like music to her ears.

It was a good thing that she wasn’t someone who had a weakness for pleasant voices. Otherwise, she would have been defeated by Callum’s voice alone.

She didn’t say anything in reply and only glared at him before she turned to the other side.
