    “Yes.


    ” Matthew paused, inhaling deeply.


    Ste pressed on, “Regardless of theplexity of the situation, make sure you don’t miss your meals.

    Just then, the wailing siren of an ambnce interrupted her.


    Concern etched her voice as she inquired, “Where are you now? Why did I hear the sound of an ambnce?”


    Matthew shut his eyes, contemting before confessing, “Someone got hurt at the construction site, and I’ve called for an ambnce.

    Feeling his endurance waning and fearing being exposed, he hastened to assure, “I’ll return as swiftly as possible.


    Please wait for me at home.


    Understanding the unspoken cue in his gaze, Breck promptly ended the call.


    The instant he hung up, Matthew sumbed to unconsciousness.

    I intend to punish them to the utmost extent that thew would allow me.

    “That concludes today’s press conference,” his agent quickly interjected, displeased with Luka’s heavy tone.


    “Thank you foring, everyone!”


    Luka cast the man a look of indifference before continuing in a cold voice, “I swear on my career, on all that I have built through the years, that Ste and I are nothing more than friends.
