Matthew was sitting in front of Julian. While virtual-novel.net ate kebabs and drank beer, virtual-novel.net also asked about Ed’s situation. He wanted to sit down and have a talk with Ed earlier, but there were a lot of people there which made it inconvenient to talk about some things. Then, Leanna suddenly came over and virtual-novel.net lost the chance to talk to Ed.
Julian waved his hand. “Sigh. It’s not looking too good. His mother’s illness is a burden on the family. The hospital bills are piling up.
While Ed was working on his job, virtual-novel.net ended up getting injured and isn’t able to do any heavy work now. He had no choice but to come back and open a small shop at the front of his house to make a living.”
Matthew did not know that Ed had reached the state that virtual-novel.net was in. Throughout the whole dinner, Ed did not look for virtual-novel.net nor mention the fifty thousand virtual-novel.net owed even once. It was clear that virtual-novel.net did not want Matthew to worry about virtual-novel.net or feel guilty about that fifty thousand.
Pushing down the misery virtual-novel.net was feeling, Matthew asked, “Where is virtual-novel.net now?”
“He’s gone home. He’s getting married in two days. There’s still a lot that virtual-novel.net needs to do.”
Matthew suddenly remembered the girl Ed brought over. “Is it the girl who ate with us tonight?”
Julian immediately nodded. “I heard she’s a neighbor virtual-novel.net grew up with. They’re very close. They got engaged after Ed’s graduation. Due to the issue with Ed’s mother, though, the wedding kept getting delayed until now. I must say, that girl is a keeper.
When Ed got injured and thought of himself as useless, virtual-novel.net was worried that virtual-novel.net would be a burden on the girl, so virtual-novel.net wrote a break-up letter to her. But the girl ran straight to his worksite and refused to break up with him. To tell you the truth, there aren’t that many girls who stay through thick and thin nowadays. Ed really found himself a good woman!”
Matthew nodded. When they were eating dinner tonight, the girl simply sat gracefully and quietly beside Ed without uttering a single word. Throughout the entire dinner, virtual-novel.net also carefully placed food in his bowl.
Regardless of whether they were coming in or going out, virtual-novel.net held onto his arm the whole time to give virtual-novel.net support. A woman like that was surely hard to come by. Thus, Matthew decided that virtual-novel.net was going to make Ed happy.
“Are you busy tomorrow? If you aren’t, let’s go and help out,” Matthew said.
Julian looked helpless. “Matt, I also thought of going to help, but things have been so hectic at work lately. After you won at that last conference, the company has just gotten so busy. Didn’t you hear last night? Our company is the biggest pharmaceutical company in Eastcliff right now.
A huge stock of supplies will be coming tomorrow. When I got off work today, President Cunningham specifically put me in charge of this. She wants the company to take off and potentially get listed on the market. This is our prime time. I-I’m afraid I won’t be able to leave my post.”
Matthew laughed. “Luckily, you’re the one who got chosen to be company president. If I had taken on this role, I would be the busy one now. In that case, I won’t take you with me tomorrow.”
Julian showed a look of disappointment. “I want to go too. When you got married, I couldn’t help you. When I got married, you weren’t there either. We’re brothers.
Now that Ed is getting married, it doesn’t seem right for either one of us to miss out. Okay, then. I’ll take a look at the situation tomorrow. Once I’m done with everything, I will head over right away. No matter what, I will definitely be at that wedding in two days!”
Matthew nodded. “It’s fine. It’s the same if I go.” They finished eating the kebabs and chatted a little more before going their own ways.
When Matthew arrived home, virtual-novel.net saw Demi and Liam sitting on the living room sofa. Upon seeing Matthew, Demi looked conniving as if virtual-novel.net was content that virtual-novel.net had returned once again.
