Love’s Perfect Match Chapter 180
Chapter 180
Right now just so happened to be the time for the employees to clock off. Therefore, they were met
with the sight of a greasy and fat middle-aged man slowly walking out of the building with a smile on his
face.Elspeth got out of the car with her bag in hand. She walked forward while faking that she was
about to make a phone call. Then, she suddenly bumped into Zain by accident due to her negligence.
The momentum caused her to lose her balance and sprawl to the ground. To make matters worse, the
screen of her phone shattered upon impact.“Hiss…” She pretended to be in great pain as she looked
up with tears in her eyes. “I’m sorry. I was looking at my phone just now, so I wasn’t looking at the
road.”Zain initially planned to fly into a great rage, but his anger dissipated completely when he realized
that the person who bumped into him was a beautiful and delicate woman.“It’s nothing. Are you alright?
Here, let me help you up.”He stretched out his hand to help her up. However, she stood up on her own
with an apologetic look. She patted the dust from her body and began blabbering in embarrassment.
“How can I trouble you? It’s my fault that I fell down in the first place. But my phone…”She glanced at
her phone on the ground, feeling a dull pang in her chest.The lecherous man had been trying to come
up with a reason to ask her out. So, when he saw the phone lying on the ground, his heart leaped with
joy. “It’s fine. I’ll buy you a new one to replace this. But, Miss, how should I address you?”She laughed
softly. “I am Abigail Joneson. What about you?”He found her smile absolutely breathtaking. “I am Zain
Black, the financial director of the Alphascape Group.”A plan had already formed in his heart as he
deliberately exposed his high-ranked status in a big company. He figured that if he revealed his identity
to her, she would definitely behave like all the other women and fawn over him.“It’s getting late, and I
have something going on. Please excuse me. I have to go.” Elspeth lifted a hand to look at her watch
with an anxious expression. “If it’s about my phone… I dropped it myself, so I’ll just buy a new one
later. Don’t worry about it.”It was his first time meeting a woman like her who was neither greedy for
money nor vain. Not to mention, she was an absolute beauty. A mixture of complicated feelings
washed over him for a moment.If only I could make her mine… The moment I do, I will immediately
divorce my plain-looking hag of a housewife and marry her instead!“No. Half of the blame lies with me.
At least let me pay for half of the costs. Otherwise, I won’t feel at ease!”She hesitated for a moment
before she answered, “Um… Why don’t we exchange phone numbers for now? Then, you can transfer
the money to me once I buy a new phone.”Although he was not happy with the arrangement, he
reluctantly nodded in agreement. It was not good to be too forceful during their first meeting. After all,
courtship was a gradual and progressive process.Elspeth gave him her phone number to make this
incident more believable. However, it was a spare number. Even if he tried to investigate the personal
information behind this number, he would not be able to figure out her true identity.Once they finished
exchanging contact information, she smiled and waved at him before walking away.Zain remained
extremely distracted after Elspeth left. Although he constantly checked his phone, it wasn’t until late
evening that he finally received the friend verification message on Facebook.Elspeth stared at the
messages that she received from the other party. Despite feeling annoyed, she was forced to adopt a
gentle tone.‘The new phone cost 6,000. You can just transfer 3,000 to me.’‘Ding dong. You have
received 30,000 in your PayPal account.’She slowly sent him a message that contained only a single
question mark.“Miss Joneson, I added an extra zero by mistake earlier. I’m very sorry for my blunder.
But I don’t lack this small amount of money. So, you can go ahead and keep the change.”“Uh… Okay,
then. In that case, why don’t I treat you to dinner tomorrow? If I treat you to dinner a few times, then we
can consider the debt paid off.”Things had played out exactly as he wanted. Thus, he replied to her
message with two smiley emojis as though he was delighted with the arrangement. The next day
happened to be the weekend. Elspeth arrived at the agreed meeting place early in the morning and
waited for Zain to make his appearance.Callum was worried and decided to follow her, so he could be
there if something went wrong. “I will be sitting right behind you later.”She rolled her eyes in frustration.
“Do I look like a feeble woman? Do you think I won’t be able to defeat that wretched man myself?”“It’s
not a worry but a concern. Any man other than myself is not a good person.”His response left her
feeling speechless.When Elspeth noticed Zain approaching from a distance, she quickly moved away
from Callum and greeted Zain with a bright grin. “You’re here, Mr. Black.”She wore a short white dress
and a matching pair of high heels, showing off her gorgeous figure.Zain practically drooled at the sight.
The woman in front of him was far more attractive than those unrefined women caked in a thick layer of
makeup.“Yeah. What are we having today?”“I don’t know your preference, so I randomly chose an
Asian restaurant. I hope the food is to your liking.”He glanced at the menu and saw that every single
dish offered was not cheap. Hence, he silently praised her for being sensible. “I’m sure it won’t.”They
randomly ordered several dishes and began making small talk with each other.“Mr. Black, don’t you
need to work today?” After she said that, Elspeth abruptly realized that she had made a slip of the
tongue and smiled apologetically. “I’m sorry. I forgot that it’s the weekend.”Who wouldn’t like a dumb
and easily deceived beauty? Unfortunately, Zain was no exception to that rule.“It’s nothing. As long as
it’s an invitation from you, I will gladly accompany you even if it were a weekday.”Elspeth frowned
slightly. “Are you not busy with work during the weekdays?”“Not really. I just need to check and balance
some accounts. So, it’s quite leisurely.”She broke out into a smile. “Wow! You should be super
knowledgeable about the Alphascape Group’s accounts.”“Of course. I made the ledger myself, so it’s
only natural for me to know these things.”After she heard that, she placed her chin on her hand. A hint
of anticipation and vague admiration appeared on her face. “How amazing. I also studied accounting
but kept making mistakes when preparing the accounts. As a result, I’m always getting scolded by my
boss.”When Zain noticed the aggrieved and distressed expression on her face, he couldn’t help feeling
sorry for her. “Don’t worry. If there’s something you don’t know, I can teach you.”A light flashed through
her eyes before she quickly fluttered her lashes. “Really?” However, the light in her eyes soon dimmed.
“But I’m very stupid. Can you show me Alphascape’s accounts and teach me the procedures step-by-
step?”He felt slightly doubtful and hesitant when he heard that she wanted to see Alphascape’s
accounts. Then, he heard her asking him to teach her the procedures step-by-step. His heart
immediately began to flutter in anticipation.There was no way he would let such a golden opportunity
slip through his fingers. Hence, he immediately agreed to bring the account statements tomorrow to
discuss them with her.When she noticed that he had taken the bait, hook, line, and sinker, she slowly
curled her lips into a smile.The next day, they agreed to meet at the same restaurant. Zain truly did
bring the account statements with him.Elspeth flipped through the account statements in her hand,
studying the records from top to bottom. Finally, a look of amazement appeared on her face. “How
amazing. The account statements are so detailed.”“That’s nothing. The most important point is that you
are too careful. I believe your boss is constantly reprimanding you because you are too honest in your
accounting.”She tilted her head to the side and looked puzzled. “What do you mean?”He looked around
and lowered his voice. “You just need to learn how to falsify the accounts!”“Do you mean to say that © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Alphascape falsified their accounts?” While she made sure to look surprised on the surface, she
secretly turned on the recording function on her phone.
