Love’s Perfect Match Chapter 101

The words that escaped Arthur’s lips sounded reasonable and impeccable.

In fact, what he said was reasonable. He indeed had nothing to do with this matter after all. He was

merely an unnecessary witness that Ophelia called over. In the end, all this was nothing but a disguise

to conceal the panic in her heart. She thought that Arthur could bring her a glimmer of hope.

To her surprise, Arthur, who had always helped her, shifted the blame to her at this moment.

“What do you mean? Arthur, that’s not what you told me before. You said you would always help me!”

At this point, Ophelia was completely panic-stricken. The reason why she was able to pretend to be

calm just now was because she knew she still had Arthur as her trump card.

Thus, she was in disbelief when Arthur actually didn’t testify for her.

“We aren’t that close, are we? Everyone knows that you have feelings for Callum. You and I are

nothing but acquaintances. We aren’t exactly childhood friends either as our paths didn’t actually cross

that often. In that case, how am I able to help you prove your innocence?”

“No! You conspired with me to frame Callum and Elspeth before. You can’t do this to me now, or I will

reveal all your affairs!”

Since his back was facing everyone, Arthur could care less about facial expressions. He looked at

Ophelia, who was in front of him, with a murderous gaze and said, “What proof do you have? Ophelia,

you have to pay for setting somebody up.” Although his voice sounded flat, it still intimidated her.

With that, Arthur flung his hand so hard that it caused Ophelia to wobble and nearly fell to the ground.

“Ophelia, do you have anything else to say?” Elspeth chuckled. Her words echoed clearly in the quiet

ward.

“1..” Ophelia stammered. She didn’t know what to say when suddenly, she spotted a fruit knife on the

table out of the corner of her eye. Her lips curved upward into a sinister smile as a devious thought

popped into her mind.

While no one was paying attention, she reached out, took the knife, and put it on Margot’s neck.

Ophelia chose Margot as her victim, for she knew it was indeed difficult for her to attack Callum and

Elspeth as the two of them were too vigilant.

“What are you doing. Ophelia?”

Looking at her somewhat manic state, Callum felt the situation was nothing but tricky.

away! All of you were captivated by her charm and made me lose everything. It’s all your fault!”

At this moment, Ophelia couldn’t absorb any words that were spoken to her. She only had one thought

in her mind, which was to kill Elspeth and everyone in front of her.

Callum frowned. Seeing that the knife was about to slash Margot’s neck, he made a quick decision and

immediately softened his voice. “Ophelia.”

As Ophelia had never heard Callum call out her name so gently, she was stunned for a moment. In

disbelief, she asked again, “What did you say?”

“Ophelia, let’s get married.”

Ophelia suddenly couldn’t help but shed tears of joy. “I finally get to hear you say those words to me.”

Seeing that Ophelia was distracted, Arthur, who stood beside her, seized the moment and abruptly

rushed over to snatch the knife from her hand before he kicked her away.

However, because he was careless when he snatched the knife from Ophelia’s hand, it slashed deep

into his palm, causing him to hiss in pain.

Seeing this, Elspeth tore off the bed sheet with all her strength. Then, she wrapped it around Arthur’s

injured palm a few times and tied it tightly to avoid blood loss.

“Don’t act so recklessly next time. Also, remember to treat your wound properly later. Otherwise, you’ll

get a bacterial infection.” Elspeth glanced at him as she reminded him.

Is she concerned about me?

All of a sudden, Arthur felt a little dazed. He looked at his hand and was stunned for a whi.. betore he

came back to his senses and called the security guard to come over.

Realizing all hope was lost for her, Ophelia fell to the ground. Tears welled up in her eyes, blurring her

vision.

The security guard hurriedly rushed over. He wanted to take her to the police station but was stopped

by Margot.

“Let her go. I still can’t bring myself to see her getting captured.”

Margot still couldn’t bear to hurt the young lady she had loved for more than 10 years, even until the Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

“After the harm you’ve inflicted on me, we no longer have anything to do with each other. Ophelia, don’t

you ever set foot into the Winthrop Residence from now on.”

Arthur ordered from the side. “lust throw her out Guard the door and don’t let her in ‘

With that, the security guard dragged Ophelia out. Instantly, the atmosphere in the ward became

peaceful.

Looking at the blood oozing out of Margot’s neck, Elspeth involuntarily asked with concern, “Mrs.

Winthrop, are you alright?”

“I’m fine. She probably accidentally slashed my neck just now.” Margot frowned as she held back the

pain. She would be lying if she said she wasn’t touched when she saw how much Elspeth cared about

her.

“Elspeth, I know I was wrong before. From now on, I will not interfere with any of your affairs with

Callum ever again. I will surely not spare him if he doesn’t treat you right.”

As soon as she said these words, she gave Callum a fierce glare as if she was warning him.

“But how about the Flemings? What shall we tell them?”

After all, Callum and Ophelia were considered to be bound together through parental betrothal, but now

that the Winthrops and the Flemings had fallen out to such an extent, it seemed they could no longer

proceed with the marriage.

Margot snorted. “The Flemings have got quite the skill in raising such a lovely’ daughter, don’t they?

Don’t worry, I’ll deal with Ophelia’s parents. After all, they have been our family friends for so many

years. They won’t dare to retaliate after they find out the shameful things their daughter has done.”

Arthur clenched his fist slightly after he heard what Margot said.

I can’t believe that the incident this time brings about Callum and Elspeth’s relationship.

“Mrs. Winthrop, since you have just woken up, you probably still aren’t doing too well. We’ll leave first,”

Elspeth suggested. She wanted Margot to have a good rest after she saw that Margot wasn’t looking

very good.

Margot nodded tiredly before she lay down to rest.

Then, the three of them tip-toed out of the room. Standing in the garden outside, Arthur said with a

smile, “It

looks like you two can date openly now.”

“What does it have to do with you?” Elspeth rolled her eyes. The sarcasm in his voice made her feel

annoyed.

Upon hearing that, Arthur looked down, hiding the emotion in his eyes. “Because I have feelings for you

too. If

you date him, then what about me?”

“Stop pretending. Arthur. It’s quite meaningless.”

Arthur sets his eyes not on me but on the huge benefits that he can reap from me.

Even though Elspeth still had no idea what those benefits were, after seeing him relentlessly pursuing

get the wrong idea about me.” It was uncertain whether Arthur was telling the truth. Despite his tone not

indicating an interest in Elspeth, there was a touch of lingering tenderness in his eyes.

“Why don’t you just tell me directly what you want from me? Perhaps I can help you.”

However, Arthur seemed to not hear her and asked back, “Will you be willing to get married to me

then?”

At once, Elspeth lost the desire to talk to a guy with a persistent nature like him.

In the end, it was Callum who stepped forward. He wrapped his arms around Elspeth’s shoulders and

warned, “She will be your sister-in-law from now on, so stay away from her.”

Arthur smirked and said, “Sister-in-law? I shall wait and see then.”
