Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 665 Meeting Cameron

Despite her disbelief, Elspeth found Harper's words plausible. Consequently, she went to the hospital immediately

after work.

While holding the report in her hand, she found herself at a loss for words. I'm actually pregnant… The report

indicates that I am already two months along in this pregnancy. It's unbelievable. Although I am emotionally and

physically prepared for pregnancy, I am not yet mentally prepared for this.

Meanwhile, Margot was in the kitchen when Elspeth returned with the report, and seeing her distraught look, she

asked, "What's wrong, Elsie? Why do you look upset? Is work too busy?"

"I'm pregnant."

Although Elspeth casually uttered these words, Margot reacted immensely as she appeared shocked and

exclaimed, "Really? You're pregnant? How many months? When did this happen? Why didn't I realize?"

Elspeth was stumped by the barrage of questions. She then nodded, her gaze fixed on Margot's bright smile. "Two

months."

"So, I'm going to be a grandmother? That's wonderful! Do you know how long I've been looking forward to this day,

Elsie?" Margot was so overjoyed that she almost reached out to grab and lift her into the air. After that, she led

Elspeth to a couch, where she promptly began to slice fruits, arrange them on a plate, and set it atop the coffee

table. "You'll be at the center of our attention from now on. Anyone who dares to bully you, I won't spare them. Just

let me know what you would like to eat or do, and I will have Callum prepare it!"

When Callum walked in through the door and saw his mother's ecstatic expression, he believed something

momentous had happened, so he asked, "What's going on?"

"What do you mean? How in the world are you even allowed to call yourself Elsie' husband if you are completely

unaware of this?" After saying this, Margot gave her son a disapproving look, which left him perplexed.

Since his mother was usually not so biased against him, he wondered if she had taken the wrong medication today

as her attitude toward him seemed to have changed overnight.

Then, she placed her hands on her hips as she looked at his dumbfounded expression. "Hurry up and take care of

your wife. She's pregnant, you know?"

Pregnant? He clearly didn't understand what was being said as he muttered under his breath.

"What's wrong? Have you gone cuckoo from being too overjoyed?"

Nevertheless, Elspeth found Callum's reaction amusing and uttered, "I'm only two months pregnant. It's nothing

significant."

In the following instant, Callum quickly walked over to her, kneeled, and rested his head on her abdomen. "Let me

listen to the baby."

However, she couldn't help but roll her eyes at him and stated, "It's only been a few months, so how can you hear

anything."

"You don't understand the bond that exists between me and my son—"

"Who said it's a son? What if it's a daughter?"

"A daughter would be even better. I love daughters the most." Callum didn't care whether they had a son or a

daughter; he was just thrilled to have a child. Then, he added, "Let me think about what name to give the child."

Elspeth couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this. "Even though the child still hasn't fully formed, you can't wait to

give them a name."

"I don't know either. This is my first time being a father, and I'm nervous." After saying this, he was at a loss.

"Are you sure this is your first time being a father? What about Cameron—" As Elspeth mentioned that name, she

abruptly ceased speaking.

Suddenly, Callum's once-bright grin gradually became more subdued. "You know I never have any feelings for that

child." Then, he gazed thoughtfully into hers as if trying to explain something.

"I know. You don't need to explain all this to me." She was not angry or upset because she had long accepted

Cameron and would not mind taking that child in if given the chance. Since she was now pregnant herself, her

empathy for that child grew.

"No, I have to. This matter has always been a burden in my heart," he admitted with a guilty expression. "I don't

know how Joella got pregnant with that child, and I don't know how to make you understand and accept this

because it's partly my fault too."

While listening to him, she took a deep breath and hugged him. "I've already let go of it for quite some time. I hope

you can put it out of your mind as well."

However, his voice grew somber as he said, "Don't force yourself to accept this—"

"I'm not forcing myself to accept it; I've genuinely made peace with it. Trust me. Why don't we go and see

Cameron? Edmund said he's taking him abroad soon, so let's visit him before he leaves."

Callum's eyes flickered at Elspeth's words. "Is this truly what you want? Are you certain you want to see that child?"

"Of course, and I know you've secretly gone to see him during this time. You even sent money to Edmund."

"How do you know about that?"

Elspeth chuckled and replied, "You were cautious but did not completely cover your tracks. How could I not know?"

After hearing this, Callum explained, "It wasn't my intention to keep it a secret; I just didn't want to be a burden on

you. Moreover, I'm not that concerned about him. I just thought…" He stopped mid-sentence when he realized he

couldn't remain objective toward Cameron. After all, the child's veins carried his blood, and even if he didn't feel

affectionate toward the child, he still had sympathy for the kid.

"I understand your actions, and I don't blame you. If I were in your shoes, I would have done the same, if not more.

After all, you're his father, and all these things are expected of you." As she said this, she glanced at his mounting

guilt and grabbed his hand. "All right, stop blaming yourself. I don't mean to blame you. Go and freshen up; let's go

to Edmund's house now."

About 40 minutes later, Elspeth and Callum arrived at Edmund's house right on time.

On the other hand, Cameron was happily sifting through the dirt in the villa's private garden with a small shovel.

When she pushed the door open, and the boy saw her, his smile faded before it was quickly replaced by a wary

expression. Since they had only met a handful of times and she stood in the distance, he mistook her for a stranger

when he saw her enter the home.

"Cam, where's your daddy?" Elspeth asked the question awkwardly because, in her mind, Edmund wasn't yet his

father.

"Daddy went to work. Oh, it's you."

As she approached step by step, Cameron finally let go of his guard. "You must be... Elsie, right?"
