Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum)

Chapter 25 Locked in the Washroom

It was near afternoon when Elspeth finally woke up to a terrible headache. She groped around for her phone, and when she finally found it, she saw she had received more than a hundred messages and numerous calls from Harper.

She first sent him a message to assure that she was safe before she started to recall what had happened last night.

She remembered how she had met Callum and gone all out teasing him, and…

She had no idea what happened after that.

After massaging her temples, she quickly freshened up and went to the company.

Even though Ophelia was a bit of a b*tch, she did a good job in planning the dinner party. Having someone of her status decorate the venue in such a novel and unique style won her the praise of everyone.

“Oh, stop it, you guys. This really is nothing much. Callum was the one who taught me everything. I am only copying his skills,” Ophelia explained with a flush on her cheeks.

Everyone naturally knew what was going on when they saw how bashful she was, so they teased her again.

“Miss Fleming, you and the president must be childhood sweethearts. We can tell that he likes you a lot!”

“Gosh, this is like a TV drama!”

Elspeth felt emotions she couldn’t pinpoint, and she soon returned to her own seat. Still, she could hear the mindless chattering going on.

Someone had to pick now of all times to ask the wrong question. “But… isn’t Elspeth the fiancée of the Winthrop Family? What if she chooses Mr. Winthrop when the time comes?”

Ophelia was in the middle of being praised when her face suddenly fell upon hearing the question.

However, she had to force an awkward smile to keep up with her image. “Don’t worry. Elspeth told me she doesn’t like Callum.”

Elspeth raised an eyebrow at that. She couldn’t help the laugh that slipped when she heard Ophelia uttering nonsense with that serious face on.

“Please don’t make things up, Miss Fleming. I am not close enough with you to talk about something like this.”

Ophelia’s face turned pale, but still she lowered her head and chewed on her lower lip. “Elspeth, you were the
