Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 585 Fishing by the Lake

"My mother is fine now, but…"

Seeing that Elspeth hesitated to speak, Margot immediately asked, "What's wrong? What is it?"

When Elspeth saw Margot's anxious expression, she decided not to tell her about the kid for the time being and

planned to ask Callum about it herself when he came back at night.

"It's nothing. I just feel sorry that I've delayed some work these few days." She simply made up a lie and managed

to deceive Margot.

Immediately, Margot put on a stern face. "Work can wait. The most important thing now is to take care of your

mother's health."

"I know, Mom."

After saying that, Margot sighed and said, "Bring your mother over when you have time. I have some things I want

to talk to her about." As she said this, there was a hint of guilt in her eyes; perhaps she was still concerned about

the thing that happened decades ago.

"Okay."

When Callum came back, he found that Elspeth had no intention of communicating with him, and her tone was

indifferent, which was unusual, so he felt very strange. After dinner, when the two of them returned to their room,

she sat on the bed and didn't want to talk.

"What's wrong? Why have you been feeling down since you came back from the hospital?" He guessed that she

might have encountered something at the hospital, so he patiently comforted her, saying, "Can you tell me about

it?"

"I met someone at the hospital today who looks just like you." Elspeth slowly spoke up, carefully observing his facial

expressions.

When Callum heard that, he was stunned for a moment before smiling. "There are so many people who look alike

in this world. It's normal to come across one of them."

"It was a three-year-old boy."

At this, his expression instantly changed. "Do you suspect that's my child?"

Although she didn't answer, her silence gave out her thoughts.

He nearly laughed out loud in anger. "We've only known each other for four years. Do you really think I had a child

with another woman soon after I met you?"

"That's not what I meant." Elspeth opened her mouth, trying to explain, but the next moment, he pulled her into his

arms.

"I know you just had an abortion, and it's understandable that you're feeling down about it." He stroked her hair,

gently comforting her. "So, I'm giving you my word. I have only been with you from the beginning and have never

had any relations with other women."

After spending so much time together, how could she not know what kind of person he was? She just missed her

child that was never born. As she made a muffled sound of agreement, she wrapped her arms around his waist.

"We can still have a child when your body recovers."

At his words, she felt a warmth in her heart and nodded vigorously.

…

The next morning, the scandal surrounding the McGrath Family suddenly took over the internet. The article detailed

the shocking and outrageous deeds that Haris had done. Instantly, the McGrath Family was pushed to the center of

public attention.

However, almost all members of the McGrath Family had been taken to the police station, so no one was left to deal

with the aftermath. Only Emily remained in the villa, all alone, with a group of protesters and reporters blocking the

entrance.

"Mrs. McGrath, are those things that the McGrath Family did true?"

"Did you participate in those things, Mrs. McGrath?"

"Have all the others except you been taken to the police station?"

"The McGrath Family has done so many disgusting things. Why don't you just go and die?"

"Shall we break open the door and drag that woman out to vent our anger?"

Emily was so frightened that she dared not open the door. When she looked through the window, she could still see

the compact crowd, making her feel suffocated. She knew that if she went out now, she would probably be

criticized by everyone.

At the same time, the group of people at the door actually started to take action. When she heard the door being

forcefully pushed, she was so scared that she trembled. After looking around, she finally decided to go upstairs first.

However, as soon as she reached the top of the stairs, the door was pushed open with a bang. "Mrs. McGrath is

over there, on the stairs!"

The moment she saw that a group of people was rushing toward her, she closed her eyes and jumped off the stairs.

Thud! The sound of a heavy object hitting the ground could be heard. Everyone stopped what they were doing and

looked at the spot where the sound came from without saying a word.

At this moment, blood was flowing from her head, making the scene look terrifying.

Only after a whole minute did someone realize that they needed to call 911, but it was already too late, as Emily

had already died.

After hearing this news, Bobby, who was far away in prison, had a breakdown and became mentally ill. Likewise,

Jasmine was also devastated and chose a sunny afternoon to commit suicide by banging her head against the wall

in prison.

As for Haris, since he only had one son in the family, he died of a heart attack in anger, knowing that his daughter-

in-law and granddaughter were both dead and that his son had become crazy.

With the deaths of these three people, the McGrath Family's saga finally came to an end.

…

During the weekend, Yelena said she wanted to go fishing by the lake and specifically invited Elspeth to come along.

Of course, Elspeth couldn't refuse, so she followed her to the lake. At the same time, Callum and Hank also came

along. These two pairs drove and chatted throughout their journey to the lake.

At the lake, Yelena excitedly handled the fishing rod while Hank took out the bait from his bag. Meanwhile, Callum

was responsible for observing whether the surrounding environment was suitable for fishing.

Since Hank had always enjoyed fishing, he raised his eyebrows with the fishing rod in his hands. "I might come in

first in today's fishing competition."

"No? Maybe I will catch more fish than you," Yelena said, unwilling to let him steal the spotlight. She then sat down

and started fishing seriously.

Hearing their conversation, Elspeth and Callum smiled at each other helplessly and found their spots to fish.

Soon, Yelena unexpectedly caught her first fish. She held the fish hook and laughed heartily, with a proud look in

her eyes. "See, I told you not to jump to conclusions too early."

Hank just glanced at her sideways and then turned his head to focus on his fishing rod.

"You're no fun at all. Hmph, I'll definitely catch more fish than you." After saying that, she sat back down and

continued fishing.

Half an hour later, Hank's fishing rod trembled slightly. He gently hooked it, and a fish fell into his bucket naturally.

Not only that, but the fish was even bigger and fatter than Yelena's.

Instantly, Yelena became anxious, but no matter how long she waited, she couldn't catch a second fish.
