Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum)
Chapter 641 What if It's Alla Scheme?

Slevin's behavior offended Yelena.

The furrow between her brows was a sign of her resentment.

"Get your hands off me. Even though I'm staying at your place, I have the right to defend myself. I can't guarantee that I won't fight back if you cross the line."

"You surprised me, you know? You're quite a character. No wonder my brother is fond of you."

Slevin couldn't help but chuckle at her alarmed look. He took a few steps back to keep a safe distance from her.

"Forgive me.I just can't help it. You're adorable."

Yelena choked at his flirtatious behavior.

"I'm not adorable! Can you be serious for a second?"

Her outburst took him aback before he suddenly burst into laughter.

"I brought you a piece of important information a few moments ago. Is this how you show your gratitude?"

"Right. Thank you, but it has nothing to do with your behavior."

"I told you.I'm just messing with you."

"I don't replace it funny at all."

"All right. All right. I'll stop talking about it if you don't like my joke."

Slevin's gaze fell on Yelena's puffed cheeks. He couldn't help but reach out a hand to pat her on the head, but she swatted his hand away.

"Listen.I think I've gotten enough information from you.It's my cue to leave."

At that moment, Yelena finally remembered she had tagged along with Federick to the banquet, and she forgot to tell him when she left. She frantically took out her phone, only to replace the battery ran out some time ago.

Slevin's brows shot up in amusement as he watched her trying to turn her phone on.

"How about this? You can charge your phone at my place. Once the battery is full, you can leave."

Yelena was anxious.

"Federick would be worried about me if I don't go back soon."

"Well, what can you do now? I don't suppose you memorized his number?"

She choked at the question.

"No."

"What's the point of panicking if you don't remember his number, and can't guarantee that you'll replace him in the same place? I think it's better if you stay to charge your phone. Give him a call once you can turn on your phone. Yelena had no choice but to agree with his suggestion.

"It's okay. Stop worrying for a second. You're a grown woman. It's not like you'll wander off and get lost or anything."

Yelena returned his teasing with a strained chuckle. She indeed got lost somewhere in the past.

Moreover, she came across Federick in the process.

"Hey, stop worrying. Charging your phone is what matters. Everything will have to wait until you charge your phone."

Yelena took his advice to charge her phone.

As soon as she turned on her phone, it was immediately flooded with messages.

Most of them were from Federick.

Besides, she missed ninety-nine missed calls from him.

Yelena connected to her mobile data network with shaky hands.

Somebody was initiating a call on her.

"Yelena! Did you leave? Where the hell did you go?"

Federick was worried sick. He didn't realize that his words were strong.

"I'm just "

"I only left you for a moment to have a dance with another person.novelebook.com And you left with somebody else instead of waiting for me?"

"It's not..."

He took a deep breath, trying to suppress his boiling anger.

"Tell me your location, now. I'll go and get you."

Yelena fumbled for an answer, only to make the sad discovery that she didn't know the answer.

"What's wrong? You're quiet."

Scanning her surroundings, Yelena felt that her hopes fade as she gave him an honest answer.

"I don't know where I am."

Federick could feel the rage clouding his mind for a second.

"What do you mean you don't know where you are?"

"Well, yeah, I came here by car.I don't know where I am, but it seems like I'm in the mountains."

He sneered.

"You've got some guts, haven't you? Only a girl like you would follow a stranger to a strange place. Be honest. You don't even know the stranger's name, do you?"

Yelena scratched her nose in embarrassment.

"I didn't, but now I do."

"Yelena!"

Federick growled.

"I'm listening!"

"How about this? Give me a moment. I'll ask them where I am and get back to you," she suggested timidly.

"Make it quick!"

Federick's patience was bottoming out.

Yelena rushed down the stairs, but Slevin was nowhere to be found. thuy bao She only found a maid cleaning up the room.

Therefore, Yelena approached the maid and held her wrist before shooting a question at her.

"Pardon me, do you know where Slevin went?"

"I'm sorry. Mr.Damazio never tells us about his schedule."

The woman answered with a sincere expression, and Yelena saw no point pushing her.

She looked around and exhaled.

What am I supposed todo? Once Yelena left the room to continue her search, the maid called Slevin.

"Mr.Damazio, I did everything as you told me.I didn't reveal the address when the lady asked."

"Good job.I'm looking forward to seeing how she will replace a way to get out of here."

Elspeth's study had reached a new phase.

Soon, the public learned that Azure Corporation invested in the research of new drugs, but not long after that, Alphascape Group also began the same research. The competition between the two companies was getting more intense day by day and was coming to a head.

"Miss Elspeth, it seems like you made a wise choice on investing in the new drugs."

Harper tossed the account book on the table before casting Elspeth a smile.

"Even though we're in the early stage of research that makes no profit at all, we'll triple our profits or more than that when it becomes a success."

He made such an announcement, exuding his confidence.

Elspeth nodded but found no joy in his statement at all.

According to her knowledge, Alphascape Group had begun their research as well.

Besides, they were making good progress.

Something was troubling her.

How did they catch up with our progress in such a short time? Medication research isn't an easy job.

Their progress should be lagging behind us, but they surpassed us instead.

Something's fishy.

"Miss Elspeth, are you thinking about the Alphascape Group?"

Harper pointed out her concerns.

Elspeth massaged the bridge of her nose.

"You're right. They began the research later than us by about a month, but already reached the same stage as us." "That's unbelievable! Do you think they found the other experts?" She denied his guess with a stern look on her face.

"That's impossible.I hired every expert in Damoria for the study during the preparation stage."

"It's ridiculous. Now, it sounds like the company is responsible for the pandemic,"

Harper joked with innocence, but his words made Elspeth see things in a new light.

Staring at the mug on the table, she got lost in her thoughts.

What if it's alla scheme?
