Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum)
Chapter 451

Chapter 451 Frank, You Liar

The instant Frank's words registered in the other two's minds, Elspeth and Callum immediately entertained various ulterior motives of their own.

Elspeth gasped in astonishment when she thought about the repercussions of Frank's actions. If the walking time bomb, Jethro, had seen the email, he would probably regard her as a heartless and cruel person.

As for Callum... When he heard that his uncle had worked so hard to solve a massive problem for him, he immediately decided to gift the car to Frank.

"Please don't take such liberties again. At least inform me about the situation beforehand."

Elspeth sighed in resignation. At this point, those words might just be the final push needed for Jethro to give up on her completely.

In any case, she did not know whether she had made the correct decision.

Frank nodded and seemed somewhat absent-minded. "Okay, okay. But I have a question for you."

She raised an eyebrow at him. "What is it?"

"That is... Do you have a woman called Agnes Braille working at your company? Can you give me her contact details?"

Agnes Braille? How did Agnes get into trouble with this devil in disguise?

Still, she noticed that he did not seem to hold a grudge against Agnes, so she couldn't resist probing further, "What grudge do you have against Agnes?"

Her response immediately elicited a sharp retort from Frank, "Do I look like such a troublemaker?"

"Why else would you suddenly demand her contact information? She is a good and honest woman."

"It's... Oh, just leave me alone. Can't you just give me her contact information?"

Elspeth had never seen the abnormal flush that crept up Frank's face before, but she immediately understood the reason behind his strange request.

"I can give you her contact information... On one condition."

Frank quirked a seemingly disinterested eyebrow at those words, but his voice betrayed his anticipation, "Speak. What is your condition?"

"You are not allowed to give any of my information to Callum!"

He glanced at Callum, who was standing nearby. Then, he looked back at Elspeth with a troubled expression. "Are you blackmailing me?"

"That depends on how you look at it. But, of course, if you truly want Agnes' contact information, you should know how to make that happen, yes?" Elspeth merely sniffed proudly and tilted her head at him. She took a seat on the couch and crossed her legs elegantly. Her posture screamed nonchalance, as though she was confident that he would give in to her demands.

"Fine. In that case, I have to apologize to Callum..."

She nodded with a smug smile upon receiving a satisfactory answer. Then, she tapped on her phone lightly with her fingertips and sent him Agnes' phone number. Frank narrowed his eyes at the sight of Agnes' profile picture in the background. Meanwhile, several schemes began forming in his mind.

Since he had gotten what he wanted, he rose to his feet and prepared to leave. "In that case, I won't disturb your alone time together any longer. I have some urgent business to deal with, so I'll be taking my leave now."

She couldn't bring herself to expose his lies when she saw his impatient and excited expression painted across his face. It was clear he wanted to leave and possibly bother poor Agnes. "Fine. Go ahead."

Frank smiled and patted Callum on the shoulder, then he leaned close to Callum's ear and whispered, "What I said earlier was just a tactic to get what I want. I'll tell you more when I have the time." Elspeth was not deaf, so she naturally heard his words clearly.

"Frank! You liar!"

She gritted her teeth in frustration as she threw the pillows on the couch at Frank.

Frank hastily yanked open the door and ran out without a moment's delay.

The pillow slammed into the door weakly before sliding to the ground in despair. "How annoying."

She angrily patted herself on the chest to soothe her anger.

Although Frank left the president's office immediately, he was in no hurry to leave the company.

He wandered around the company, trying to replace the figure that had been plaguing his mind for quite some time.

After he loitered around for several more minutes, he finally saw a familiar side profile standing in the corner. He instantly sauntered over without hesitation and came to a stop in front of that person. "What did I say? You wouldn't be able to escape from me."

Skylar was packing up her things and pondering over her resignation from the company.

News of Jethro's resignation had spread like wildfire among the company's higher-ups. Now that the target of her pursuit was leaving the company, she felt that it was meaningless for her to remain working in the company.

According to her speculations, Jethro would most likely switch to a competitor in the industry. If she devoted herself to him and followed in his footsteps, he might finally notice her. Then...

Unfortunately, a man suddenly appeared in front of her before she finished daydreaming. She stared up at the man in front of her and felt her breath hitch in her throat.

Oh, my God! How can a man be this handsome?

The man had thin eyebrows, lively eyes, and a high nose bridge. Moreover, his thin lips were slightly on the pale end. His facial features were perfect in every way, and every part of him seemed so attractive that he practically bordered on being someone straight out of a storybook! Yet, he was not inferior to Jethro in any way. In fact, he might even surpass Jethro by a small margin in terms of good looks.

Is this man a newly debuted idol? If that's the case, then I will have to seriously consider whether I should leave the company after all. How can anybody be unmoved by such a stunning man? Wait a minute... Was he trying to flirt with me just now?

She could barely control the excitement in her heart. I can't believe such a Cinderella-like event where the poor girl is chosen by Prince Charming is happening to me!

"Excuse me..."

As soon as her voice sounded, she saw a look of disappointment flashing across the man's face. Disappointment? Why is he disappointed just because I spoke to him?

Before Skylar realized what was happening, the faint smile on the man's face vanished completely.

"I'm sorry. I thought you were someone else."

She instinctively touched her face as if wondering about the authenticity of his words.

How can he mistake me for someone else? Do I look similar to somebody else?

As soon as that crucial information popped into her mind, she instantly understood the situation.

Don't tell me... Could this man be looking for Agnes? She was so furious that she nearly shattered her molars from the force of gritting her teeth so hard. Why are all these men always looking for Agnes? What's so great about that woman anyway? It's not like she's famous or anything. Besides, I am not inferior to her in terms of appearance. So, what is it about her that attracts so many people? "Are you looking for Agnes?"

Those words immediately caused a look of anticipation to flash across Frank's face. "What? Do you know this person? Where is she now?"

The hint of an obscure hatred unconsciously appeared in her eyes, but she quickly recovered and flashed her signature sweet smile at him. "Of course, I know her. She is my colleague. How can I not know her? Besides, we are quite close friends. If you want to know more about her, you can just ask me about her."

She set up a two-layered trap for him with those remarks alone.

On the one hand, she could improve her relationship and build connections with this handsome man in front of her.

On the other hand, she had implied that she knew Agnes very well. Therefore, if he really had any romantic intentions toward Agnes, she could subtly increase his dislike toward Agnes through her representations of the other party.

If I can't get him, then neither will that imposter who became popular because of me!

"Did you say you know her very well?"

She nodded docilely. "That's right. Agnes tells me everything. For example, which man she had dinner with the other night, which man's present she received the other day, or which man accompanied her for a drink at the bar. I know everything in explicit detail."

When Skylar caught sight of the gradual change in Frank's expression, she couldn't help feeling a sense of triumph and satisfaction.
