There was a trace of astonishment shing across Wyatt''s eyes, but he spat out coldly, "Since you''re being so persistent, I''ll grant you three days to think it over. Today will be the first day.
"You should hurry back to yourpany because things are about to go down!"
Rachel could tell that he was threatening her, but she sneered, "You think I''m scared?" After she had said that, she turned to leave.
Then, Wyatt whipped his phone out and called someone. "Hello, Derek? The negotiation went wrong. Take some men with you to the Wealthwave Group and show them what we can do!"
After Rachel entered the elevator, she took out her phone. Seeing how anxious Rachel became, Tracy reminded her and said, "You won''t get a signal on the elevator."
Upon hearing that, Rachel simply hummed in reply and let out a worried expression. She had a premonition of what Wyatt was about to do.
Once she got out of the elevator, she made a call to Zachary and said, "Arrange for a few more men to patrol the area."
Coincidentally, Zachary had something to tell her too. "Ms. Carter, something happened at thepany."
Rachel was somewhat shocked and asked, "What happened?"
Then, Zachary helplessly exined, "Matthew''s ex-mother-inw came today, and she held up a banner that said he''s a scumbag who abandoned his wife and daughter."
At that, Rachel was somewhat taken aback-she had thought that it would be Wyatt''s men who were causing a scene.
Who knew it turned out to be Matthew''s ex-mother-inw? She could only contact Matthew to resolve this particr issue.
After she got into her car, she took a deep breath to calm herself down. Then, she forced a huge smile and called Matthew.
"Hello?" Matthew answered sweetly.
He had just dropped off Sebastian and Theo at the opulent Club and was thinking of seeing Ansel to ask him some things. But all of a sudden, his phone rang with an iing call from Rachel, and it made him inexplicably happy.
"Hello? Why''d you call? Did you miss me?"
Listening to his words, Rachel was stunned. But he wasn''t wrong, after all. She did miss him quite a bit after the previous makeout session they had in the car parked in front of Opulent Club.
Of course, she''d be curious about the intimate rtions that happened between a man and a woman and the things she had never experienced, but it seldom came to mind.
Yet, she began to think much more about it when she was bored, and it all began after Matthew had done that to her.
At times, she even thought of the things they did in detail, and the more they acted like that, the more she thought about it. But she could never swallow her pride to take the initiative to contact Matthew first.
Now that Matthew had asked her such a question, she felt too embarrassed to let him know that she did miss him.
As such, she cleared her throat and switched the topic. "Your.... Ex-mother-inw is making a fuss at ourpany and said that you''re a jerk who abandoned her daughter.
"What''s she trying to do by making a fuss in front of mypany?"
When Matthew heard what she said, he became furious.
Clearly, it was Tessa who stole hispany and divorced him, so how did this woman have the nerve to y the victim? Jennifer was absolutely shameless!
"She said that she needed to pay the property management feesst time and didn''t have enough money. So, she came to me to borrow some money. She probably went mad over the money, so she did that!
Rachel didn''t want to probe into Matthew''s past, so she asked, "Are you free
now? If you are, could you head over to take care of it?"
Matthew then replied, "Don''t worry about Jennifer. I''ll head there now and get rid of all her useless thoughts once and for all! I can. guarantee that she won''t cause à
scene in front of yourpany ever
again!"
At the entrance of the Wealthwave Group, Jennifer waited anxiously as time passed—an hour, two hours, and finally, three hours had passed, but there was no sight of Matthew.
The number of people who were gossiping about it had increased, and Jennifer secretly took delight in it.
The longer she waited, the bigger the impact it would have on Matthew. With that
in mind, he''d definitely feel pressured and beg her to leave the ce.
Jennifer felt inherently proud of herself for having chosen the entrance of Wealthwave Group to kick up a fuss.
It made her think about how Matthew would show up and beg her to leave without having to scold her or beat her up because he had to maintain his perfect image in Rachel''s eyes.
