Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 345 The Tables Have Turned

Rayan stared at her and asked solemnly, “Then tell me, was everything you said true?”

Emma’s eyes widened as if in disbelief. “Of course, it was. I swear that not a single word I said was a lie!”

His expression eased a little. “Then, what is your relationship with them?”

Emma’s face instantly stiffened for a moment, but after a pause, she raised her chin and answered proudly without

any sense of shame, “This woman has been constantly targeting me just because she likes Callum, and I’m the

person Callum likes.”

Normally, Elspeth would probably not be able to resist the urge to gripe at her, but now, Emma was just digging her

own grave step by step. She couldn’t wait to mock her, much less blame her for her big mouth.

At her words, things instantly became clear for Rayan. As expected, Elspeth was right, and this woman wanted to

dispose of Elspeth by using him.

At the thought of this, he began to boil with anger, but he still remained calm and gentle on the surface. “Miss

Walker, is it?”

Meanwhile, Emma assumed that she was well-known from his question and lowered her head bashfully. “I never

expected you to recognize me, Mr. Adler. It truly is an honor.”

Upon hearing that, Elspeth couldn’t help but chortle.

Emma suddenly felt a burst of humiliation. She swiveled around and glared viciously at Elspeth before turning back

to Rayan and asking with a smile, “Please don’t mind her. She’s always been an oddball. By the way, what are you

planning to do with her?”

Best if he sent a few men to ruin her! That way, even if she survives and returns to Callum, he wouldn’t like her

anymore. After all, nobody likes used goods!

Rayan nodded thoughtfully. “If it’s really as you said, I do have to properly teach her a lesson.”

Emma’s eyes instantly gleamed. “Yes, please do!”

Right after that, Rayan said, “All of you, untie Elspeth.”

At these words, the smile on Emma’s face instantly collapsed. “What do you mean? Aren’t you going to teach her a

lesson? Why are you untying her?”

Before she realized it, the men were already approaching her slowly.

“Um, did you make a mistake?” Emma’s heart skipped a beat as she watched the two ill-intentioned men approach

her.

Rayan personally helped Elspeth, who was unsteady on her feet after being bound for a long time, to take a seat,

before he turned around and shot a cold glare at Emma. “Do you think a troublemaking woman like you can use

me to finish someone else off? Keep dreaming!”

At that moment, he felt nothing but guilt and distress for Elspeth. If it weren’t for that woman’s instigation, he and

Elspeth would have been getting along in a normal and friendly exchange by now. He swore to never let this woman

go for causing him to lose Elspeth’s goodwill toward him.

By then, the two men had already subdued Emma and were holding her down, preventing her from moving.

Emma lifted her head and roared wildly, “Why are you capturing me? Shouldn’t you be capturing Elspeth instead?

Mr. Adler, what did she say to you? Don’t be fooled by her!”

Rayan felt that the woman in front of him was raucous and insane. She and Elspeth were simply opposites, and his

heart naturally favored Elspeth more.

“Oh, so you’re doubting my abilities to judge?” Rayan demanded, feeling irritated by her voice.

Meanwhile, Emma was on the verge of a breakdown. She was here to watch Elspeth’s downfall, so why had things

come to this?

Looking at the situation at hand, she had to make a quick decision. She immediately calmed down and softened her

tone as she said, “Mr. Adler, listen to me, things aren’t what you think. Are you being encouraged by this woman to

do this?”

Rayan laughed under his breath. “Okay, stop explaining. I don’t want to hear anything you say!”

Immediately after, he looked at Elspeth and sent her a flattering smile. “Miss Lynwood, since she was targeting you,

I’ll leave this to you. Tell me what you want to do with her, and I’ll help you with anything.”

No, she couldn’t fall into Elspeth’s grasp! After everything she’d done, Elspeth simply had nothing but despise for

her!

Emma desperately shook her head, her tears rolling down her face. “Please don’t do this to me!”

Realizing that pleading with Rayan was not working, Emma crawled to Elspeth’s side and tugged at her skirt,

begging, “Elspeth, on the behalf of the fact that we’re both women with our own hardships, can you tell him to let

me go?”

Upon seeing that Emma was now playing the pity card with her, Elspeth glanced at her unruly state and didn’t feel

an ounce of pity. If anything, she even felt like gloating as she said, “When you constantly tested my limits before

this, did you ever consider that this would happen to you?”

Elspeth rubbed her sore wrists and extended a finger, raising Emma’s chin. Before she left the house, Emma had

dolled herself up beautifully, but her makeup was now smudged by her tears, making her look miserable and

pathetic.

“Elspeth, I know that you’re a kind woman, right?”

Elspeth chortled and removed her hand disdainfully. “Don’t mess with me, and I won’t mess with you. I’ve never

said that I was kind.”

At the sound of her words, Emma was basically certain that Elspeth would not let herself off easily! She plopped

onto the ground helplessly, tears slowly falling from the corners of her eyes. She did not make the slightest sound

as fear had already taken over her mind. She could not foresee what would happen to her next, but there was one

thing she knew for certain—she was done for.

Although Elspeth really wanted to watch Emma being tormented, she had more important things to tend to. Now,

the others didn’t know about her situation and thought she had been kidnapped, so she needed to leave as soon as

possible to let them know and not make them worry.

Thinking this, she glanced at Rayan beside her with a serene smile. “Mr. Adler, I feel a little unwell at the moment,

so I want to head home and rest. I’ll leave this side of things to you.” After saying that, she even went over and

squeezed his shoulder, showing her concern.

Rayan had never seen her so assertive, and he assumed that their relationship had soared because of this matter,

so he instantly agreed. “Then you should hurry back and get some rest. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of things for

you.”

Elspeth smiled and followed the bodyguard he had appointed out of the basement. After watching Elspeth leave,

Rayan turned his gaze back to Emma, who was still on the ground. She shrank back a little, her pupils dilating as

she looked at the bloodthirsty light glowing in his eyes.
