Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 349 An Odd Change of Feelings

A sign of life... Doesn't that mean that Emma is still alive? Elspeth lowered the cup in her hand, and Yelena started

shouting before Elspeth could say anything. "Why is this woman so resilient?"

"Alright. Stop with that nonsense." Elspeth chuckled as she hit Yelena's head. Max, who was more clear-headed,

knitted his brows together while questioning her. "What should we do, then?"

"We don't have a choice. She's just really lucky to be alive. However, the fire was really huge, and there was an

explosion as well, so I'm sure she will end up being in a coma even if she survives," Elspeth replied. In other words,

it was unlikely for Emma to be able to do much to them. Upon finishing her words, Elspeth exchanged glances with

Callum before they gave each other a subtle nod.

Yelena still seemed rather confused, and she cautiously questioned the two of them when she noticed that they

seemed to have a plan of their own. "Did you guys come up with some idea?" she asked.

"We're planning to head to the hospital to pay her a visit," Elspeth replied. "Why would you want to visit her after

what she did to you?" Yelena lost her cool immediately after hearing Elspeth's words. I don't get it! Why can't we

seem to get rid of Emma?

"We're going to visit her at the hospital precisely because she's being so stubborn about staying alive." Elspeth

started to head upstairs after she finished her words. Yelena finally responded with a half-hearted nod. "Fine. But if

you guys are going, then I want to come along as well." Yelena figured that she could just give Emma a huge slap if

Emma tried anything again. How dare she bully Elspeth?

Elspeth already had one foot on the step of the stairs, and she turned around to give Yelena a rather exasperated

glance. All of a sudden, Elspeth seemed to recall something. "Max mentioned that you have another press

conference in the afternoon, right? You don't have to join us for this!" Elspeth uttered.

Yelena only understood the situation after Elspeth headed up and shut the door behind her. "Oh, oh no... I nearly

forgot about this. I'm so glad that Elspeth brought it up. I have to leave, everyone!" Before Max had a chance to

respond to Yelena's words, Yelena had already sprinted out. However, she returned to Max just a few minutes later

and rapped Max's head with her knuckles. "Why are you just standing there? I'm not familiar with the routes. Bring

me there!" she hissed.

Max felt like he had been scolded for no reason, but he also had no choice but to lead Yelena out of the villa. Callum

and Elspeth took about half an hour to prepare themselves for their trip to the hospital. The firefighters had sent

Emma to the best hospital in

town.

Callum and Elspeth found Emma in the ICU when they first arrived. She had all sorts of tubes stuck into her body,

and she was a pitiful sight.

A woman was sitting in the corridor outside the ward who seemed rather haggard and weary. She looked like she

was a few months pregnant she had a slight baby bump. Elspeth was stunned when she saw the woman's face.

"Ginna?"

Ginna's expression was icy when she noticed Elspeth's arrival. "Were you guys somehow related to my sister's

accident?" she asked flatly. Elspeth was furious to hear Ginna's baseless accusation, but she simply let out a scoff.

"Why don't you ask your sister about it when she wakes up?" Elspeth uttered in a nonchalant tone.

Ginna knew her sister well, so she simply let out a soft grunt without making any more comments. "How's her

condition now?" Callum shifted his sharp gaze toward the entrance of the room. "How are you related to my sister?

Why is this any of your business?" Ginna didn't bother to show the slightest bit of respect for him. However, she

seemed rather triggered after hearing the man's words, so she got to her feet before she continued shouting. "I

don't even know why she likes you! There are so many good men in this world, and she doesn't need you at all. You

claim to be her ex-boyfriend, yet you don't seem to miss her at all. You're the reason my sister is in this state."

Ginna's entire statement was directed at Callum-she was blaming Callum for what happened! Elspeth furrowed her

brows for a while before she curled her lips into a scornful smirk. "Why don't you also talk about how your sister

clings on to Callum like a parasite that he can't remove?"

Ginna was so furious that she was shaking at that point. "You have no right to speak here, you witch. You didn't just

try to seduce my sister's boyfriend; you even seduced my boyfriend. How could someone be as cheap as you?"

Callum's gaze darkened as an icy look crept onto his face. "Stop with your nonsense, Ginna!" he growled. "What is

it? Did I say anything wrong?" Ginna cried as she looked around her. Callum's gazed at Ginna's belly for a while, and

he tried to soften his voice after that. "You're pregnant. We can talk more about this matter when your sister wakes

up."

"Hah! I don't need your pretentious words of comfort. I don't need anything. I just want both of you to stay away

from my sister! She would feel worse if she woke up only to see your faces."

Ginna seemed to calm down as she conveyed her words in a clear and firm manner. It was evident that Ginna was

trying to chase them away. Elspeth tugged on Callum's arm in an attempt to tell him that it wasn't worth losing his

temper over someone like Ginna. "Fine. You'll have to take care of your sister, then," Elspeth said as she glanced at

Ginna's belly. "Remember to take care of your child, too," Elspeth said with a smirk.

Ginna immediately pressed her hand against her belly. "What is it? Are you trying to harm my baby after you've

harmed my sister?"

"You need to have some control over your wild imaginations and delusions!" Elspeth hissed before she held Callum's

hand and led him out of the building. "What are you planning to do next?" Callum asked after they stopped at a

park outside. Elspeth glanced at one of the doctor's offices in a building nearby. "I'm planning to check in with her

doctor, of course," she replied with a smile. "We'll have to ask the doctor about Emma's condition."

Callum was quiet for a moment. Their initial intention had been to further understand Emma's condition. Since they

couldn't get any answers from Ginna, they had no choice but to go to Emma's doctor. Both Callum and Elspeth

nodded in agreement before they headed to the doctor's office.

Elspeth knocked on the door out of courtesy, and she had just pushed the door open when she saw Arthur standing

in the room beside another doctor. Arthur was bent over as he looked through a patient's file on the computer.

Arthur's gaze darkened when he looked up to see Elspeth entering the room with Callum behind her. "Hey. It's you

guys."

Arthur straightened his figure and rubbed his hands together as he smiled. "What is it? Are you guys here to ask

about Emma's condition as well?"

Elspeth didn't know what to say at that moment. Judging by the look on Arthur's face, she was almost certain that

he knew about both of them. In other words, it seemed like Arthur knew about the three of them. However, she

was curious why he didn't expose her. She glanced at him for a moment before she responded to him. "How's

Emma?"

"She's just as you saw-she suffered severe burns on almost her entire body, and her face is ruined. She has a lot of

fractured bones and she has a concussion. In other words, it's a miracle that she survived. We're still not sure how

she's going to turn out. Her injuries are so severe, it might affect her life expectancy." Arthur felt sorry for Emma's

tragic fate, and there was a hint of pity in his voice.

However, he didn't show much emotion beyond pity. There was no sign of the other feelings he once had for her.
