Love's Perfect Match

"I've already said that I don't have the capabilities you think I do, and I have no interest in the Damazio Family either. If you insist
on me helping you bring down the Damazio Family, then perhaps we can't continue this conversation anymore." After speaking,
Elspeth stood up and got ready to leave.
"Hey, don't be in a hurry to leave just yet. Maybe I can offer you other conditions."
"There's no need to say anything else. I have no interest in any conditions you might have to offer."
"What about... Yelena's future?"
At that, Elspeth halted and asked, "What do you mean?"
When Slevin saw her stopping in her tracks, he knew that she had taken the bait. "Nothing much. I just so happen to know some
stories about Yelena's past."
Her expression turned cold immediately. "What do you know?"
With a nonchalant expression, he leaned back and replied, "It's nothing much—just that she was in a relationship with Max
before, and they broke up. After that, Max died because of her. Oh, and if I recall correctly, he also donated his bone marrow to
her."
"How would these things affect her future if they were revealed?" She remained calm.
"Miss Lynwood, you've worked in the entertainment industry before. You must know the kind of sensation these news stories
would create. Otherwise, you wouldn't have taken measures to keep these things from being exposed domestically."
Hearing that, she clenched her right hand into a fist. How does he know about this?
"I know you're probably wondering how I know all this. You've done a good job of hiding, but the truth will come out eventually.
Hence, you might want to carefully consider whether or not you want to work with me." His smile appeared harmless, but his
words were lethal.

"I need to think about this carefully." After all, it involved Yelena, so Elspeth couldn't ignore that.
"No problem. Take your time to think it over." He knew that her uttering those words meant there was already a 50 percent
chance of cooperation. "By the way, that silly Yelena still doesn't know about Hank's situation. Perhaps she'll be even more
devastated when she finds out."
Slevin then stood up and straightened his clothes. "I've said everything I needed to. The rest is up to you, Miss Lynwood. I truly
hope we can work together. Here's my business card. If you agree, feel free to contact me, and I'll provide you with all the
details." With that, he took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to her.
After a moment of hesitation, she reached out and accepted it.
"I'll be waiting for your call." He made a phone call gesture and left with a smile.
Once he was gone, she returned to her office, unable to calm her thoughts for a long time.
It wasn't until Harper approached her that she snapped back to reality. "What are you thinking about, Miss Elspeth?" He placed a
stack of documents on her desk and teased her, saying, "Are you so happy about Alphascape Group's downfall that you've
forgotten about everything else?"
He didn't know she had something on her mind and assumed she was ecstatic about Alphascape Group's demise.
Indeed, it was a relief. Ever since Yena's imprisonment and subsequent suicide, Alphascape Group had been on the decline.
The recent scandals made it impossible for the company to recover. Executives had already fled with the money, leaving behind
only a few regular employees who couldn't make any waves.
"There's one question now, though. Should we acquire Alphascape Group?"
Although Alphascape Group's reputation was tarnished, it still had outstanding achievements in certain fields. If they could
acquire the company, it might elevate Azure's development even further.

"No."
Harper couldn't quite understand where Elspeth was coming from when he heard her answer, for it wasn't in line with her usual
style of doing things. Alphascape Group is a tempting target, even if it has been severely destroyed. Other companies are eyeing
it too. Shouldn't Elspeth know its value?
"Why shouldn't we acquire it?"
As she rubbed her temples, she explained, "Alphascape Group's recent troubles are related to us. Although what we did was just
and right, rushing to acquire it would undoubtedly raise suspicion of ulterior motives. Even if we succeed in the acquisition, it
would be a vulnerable point, potentially becoming our biggest weakness in the future. In the business world, once someone finds
a vulnerability, things can easily go wrong."
Hearing this, Harper finally understood. "You always think ahead, Miss Elspeth. Sorry, I hadn't considered things carefully
enough."
She knew he was just thinking along familiar lines, so there wasn't anything wrong with that. "It's okay. Besides this, is there
anything else?"
When he looked at her, his expression suddenly became somewhat embarrassed. "Well, I... I'm going to be a father."
Instantly, her eyes widened. "What? You two haven't gotten married yet, right?"
"We haven't, but we just found out yesterday that she's pregnant. The baby came as a surprise. I didn't expect it either, but since
she's already pregnant, I need to make plans about marrying her immediately."
Elspeth nodded approvingly. "I knew you were a great guy, and you're certainly a responsible man. Let me know when you'll be
getting married, alright? I'll design her wedding gown."
With a smile, Harper scratched his head. "Thank you, Miss Elspeth. She looks up to you a lot. She'll be extremely happy if you

can design her wedding gown."
"In that case, you'd better start preparing now. If her belly starts to show, she wouldn't look as good in the wedding gown," she
jokingly said.
"Don't worry. By the way, Miss Elspeth, when are you and Mr. Winthrop planning to have a baby?"
The mention of a baby reminded her of the previous miscarriage, and a trace of sadness flashed across her eyes. "My body
couldn't handle any pregnancies before this, so I didn't consider it. I've recovered now, but my belly isn't showing any signs."
Harper appeared doubtful, his brows furrowed. "Are you sure? I feel like you've been exhibiting signs of pregnancy recently,
though."
"What do you mean?" She was stunned.
"When we were at home, she told me that pregnant women tend to have a smaller appetite, and they will also crave sour foods.
Miss Elspeth, you've been eating a lot of sour foods lately, and you seemed rather fatigued. Why don't you go to the hospital and
get checked to see if you're pregnant?"
Hearing his words, she lowered her head and glanced at her stomach, still unable to process the notion. Am I... pregnant?
