Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum)
Chapter 533

CHAPTER 533 YOU'RE NO MATCH

"So, this has been going on for such a long time?" Simone's eyes lit up. She hadn't expected Yelena to be the one who had saved her son. Furthermore, she had no idea that her son had been motivated to inherit the business at a younger age just so that he could support Yelena's career to repay her kindness. Interesting... This is really interesting.

"Are you mad at me, Miss Balkan?" Even though Yelena had been transparent about everything, she still felt rather anxious. Hank spent a large sum of his money on me. Wouldn't Miss Balkan be furious to hear this?

"Why should I be angry?" Simone chuckled. "Isn't it great that both of you managed to support each other at different points in life?" Support... I don't think I've supported Hank in any way, Yelena thought.

"I think you might have misunderstood something, Miss Balkan. We've already broken up with each other, and I..." Yelena felt rather helpless at that point. Does this mean that Miss Balkan is actually supportive of our relationship? In that case, why did we rush into this whole act of breaking up with each other?

"I know... But that's such a shame." Simone let out a sigh before she took a sip out of her teacup. "I'm sure Hank is really fond of you, but I don't know why you guys broke up in the end. Why don't you tell me about it?" she asked.

Yelena gulped. "We broke up because he had to go on a blind date." Simone nearly spat out her tea after hearing Yelena. However, she was a cultured woman, so she managed to calm herself down before speaking. "So, are you saying that the brat, Hank, dumped you over this matter?" she asked in the most pleasant tone she could manage.

Hank, a brat... Yelena felt like her brain was covered by a layer of fog. For some reason, she found it rather bizarre to hear Simone speak of her son in that way. Yelena was about to explain herself when someone knocked on her door again. "Let me get that." Yelena flashed Simone a smile before she hurried to the entrance. She had just opened the door when she found herself greeted by a warm hug.

Hank rushed into the room and scanned Yelena from head to toe to make sure that she was still in one piece. "I'm glad you're fine," he uttered with a sigh. "Why wouldn't I be?" Yelena was puzzled for a moment. However, she then noticed Simone from the corner of her eye, and she finally understood what Hank meant. It seemed like Hank had found out about his mother's visit, and he had rushed over just to support her.

However... "I'm still here." Simone's voice was calm, and she didn't reveal any emotions in her tone. Yelena spun around and glanced in Simone's direction before she pushed Hank a little farther away from her. "Miss Balkan is still here. You should watch what you're doing," Yelena whispered.

"I don't know why you showed up here today, Mom. However, we've already broken up, so I hope you don't come over to bother Yelena from now on," Hank uttered in a firm and icy tone. It seemed like he was certain that Simone had visited Yelena just to threaten Yelena to stay away from him. Yelena quickly shook her head. "It isn't what you think. There has been a misunderstanding," she uttered worriedly.

"Don't be afraid. I know you must feel bad. You need to tell me if she threatened you in any way," he replied.

"Hey, didn't you guys break up with each other already? Why are you guys still clinging to one another?" Simone let out an amused giggle. "That's enough. I'm not as mean as you guys think I am," she uttered while standing up with her bag. "But... It's true that you guys cannot be together. I'm sure you know why."

Hank shot the woman with an icy glare. Yelena was stunned by the sudden turn of events. How did things change so quickly? Didn't I just have a really pleasant exchange with Miss Balkan?

"I believe I have full autonomy in dating whomever I like. You shouldn't worry about this matter." Both mother and son were insistent on their stances, and neither one of them seemed to want to take a step back. "No, I think you misunderstood what I said," Simone uttered as she held her chin up high. "I think both of you cannot be together because I think you're no match for her."

Yelena couldn't stop herself from gasping in shock.

"You were dating one another, yet you dumped her just because you had to go on a blind date. She's such a nice girl, and she once saved you. Is that how you're supposed to treat your savior?" Simone clicked her tongue at her son while giving him a disdainful glare. I can't believe I spent all my years nurturing this boy into a young man with such a horrible attitude! Yelena is such an innocent and kind young lady-I can't believe she had to suffer because of him. Well, she does seem like a rather honest and simple girl. It's no wonder she was fooled by Hank. It looks like she's still confused at this point.

Simone walked over to Yelena before holding Yelena's hands and gazing at her lovingly. "Yelena, I noticed how kind and nice you are after our talk earlier. Since Hank decided to treat you so horribly, I think you should just forget about him. I have tons of connections, and I can send you all of their contacts later. You should chat with some of these men, and you can tell me if you like any of them. I'll set you guys up."

Is my future mother-in-law trying to introduce me to other guys in front of my own boyfriend? The entire situation was too confusing for Yelena. Hank, on the other hand, realized what was going on, and his expression darkened immediately. "What are you doing, Mom?" he hissed.

"I didn't do much. I just figured that I'd replace Yelena someone who will cherish her since you don't." Simone had already pulled her phone out to open her Facebook application. "Why don't you add me as a friend? I'll send you some contacts later." Yelena didn't know how to reject the woman, so she awkwardly reached out to take Simone's phone before adding herself as a friend.

Hank reached out to stop Yelena when he saw what she was doing. "Are you going to cheat on me, Yelena?" he growled with a stern look on his face. It was then that Yelena realized what was going on. "No, no. It's fine, Miss Balkan; I don't need any contacts." Yelena waved her hands to signal that she didn't need Simone's offer.

Simone crossed her arms in front of her chest. "Look-you would've continued lying to me if I hadn't forced the truth out of you. You're clearly still in love with each other. Why did you lie to me?"

Yelena spoke up as she was worried that Hank would receive a scolding otherwise. "It's not what it looks like, Miss Balkan. Hank just wanted to slow things down as he was worried that you wouldn't be able to accept it."

"Why does he have to care about that? Back then, his father practically turned the world upside-down when he courted me. His father even gave up on the family business! How could our son be so useless? He can't even protect his own woman." How frustrating! Simone thought.

Yelena was too embarrassed to speak at that point, so she simply stood by the side while eyeing Hank with her large, round eyes. It was as if she was trying to tell him that she had tried her best to help, but there wasn't much else that she could do.

"I have my own plans," Hank uttered in a calm voice while gazing at Simone. Simone seemed rather displeased to hear this. "What plan are you talking about? I want you guys to have a good talk. I'll handle the rest of the matters," she suggested. I can't trust Hank at all! He nearly lost such a good wife. I had to step in just to take things into my own hands.
