Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum)

Chapter 29 Unexpected Accident

Elspeth dispelled his fantasies by saying, “I’m the woman you’re talking about.”

Max leaped to his feet. “How could it be you?! I don’t believe you!”

“Suit yourself.”

Max snorted. “If you’re really her, then come with us tomorrow and let me see just how good you are. Don’t end up being too scared to even get into a race car.”

Elspeth, however, wasn’t going to let this brat get away with this so easily. “What if I turn out to be her?”

“I won’t call you a country bumpkin anymore if you really are her.”

“You’ll have to call me Miss Elspeth,” Elspeth added with a smile.

Max was determined as well. “It’s a deal! And if you’re not, you’ll get out of the Winthrop Residence at once!”

“Deal.”

The next day, Max woke Elspeth up himself and called Callum to join them. The trio headed for Death Canyon.

Max loved racing cars and thus, he looked up to Callum, who was an expert racer. However, once that mysterious woman broke Callum’s record, he started imagining what she’d look like.

Elspeth changed into a crimson racing suit that made her the center of attention.

Callum was also wearing red, and the two made quite the match when they stood together.

“If you have shoddy racing skills, then don’t wait until you embarrass yourself. You can still admit defeat now.”

Elspeth climbed into the race car and put on her seatbelt. “Watch me.”

The engine started and the car flew down the race track before anyone could even react.

Initially, Max was still unconvinced, but once he saw the way she handled the car as she completed the lap, his jaw dropped. “T-This is impossible. How could this be?”

Callum kept his voice low as he replied, “I looked into who that person was the last time. It is Elspeth.”

“Callum…” Max stared at Callum with a pained expression. “Why didn’t you tell me sooner?!”
