In the end, the crown prince made the final decision on the matter of Lucy’s agent, and their meal had also come to an end.
After the nine Heads of the families apologized to Matthew and the crown prince, everyone dispersed. Then, the crown prince left with Melvin, leaving Matthew and Lucy behind.
As virtual-novel.net stood alone with Matthew, Lucy’s heartbeat immediately began to speed up, and even virtual-novel.net breathing became a little short-winded as virtual-novel.net couldn‘t help but think of what happened last night. After all that virtual-novel.net had experienced, there was no longer any trace of disgust in Lucy’s eyes when virtual-novel.net looked at Matthew again.
On the contrary, virtual-novel.net was already deeply attracted to this taciturn man. Especially during the situation last night, Matthew’s calmness during the chaos made virtual-novel.net feel that virtual-novel.net was different from the rest.
This time, as virtual-novel.net trailed behind him, Lucy didn’t reject virtual-novel.net anymore, and virtual-novel.net was even looking forward to something happening later. On the other hand, Matthew didn’t think too much of it. For him, meeting Lucy was just a coincidence. He admired virtual-novel.net stubbornness and kindness, so virtual-novel.net gave virtual-novel.net a hand, but virtual-novel.net had no other thoughts about virtual-novel.net at all. After all, none of the girls around Matthew were any worse than Lucy.
Whether it was Sasha or Leanna, or Jinny who had returned to Orleans, their figures and appearances were far superior to Lucy. Even the crown prince’s mother, Poison Spider, who was as vicious as a snake, was far better than Lucy. Hence, Lucy’s beauty that virtual-novel.net took pride in was nothing but ordinary to Matthew.
Walking to the car the crown prince had left behind, Matthew glanced at Lucy and asked, “Where do you live? I’ll take you back first.”
Lucy looked a little disappointed as virtual-novel.net actually wanted Matthew to take virtual-novel.net home. However, when virtual-novel.net recalled the previous night when they were together, Matthew didn’t do anything to her. So, how would Matthew take virtual-novel.net home tonight?
At that thought, virtual-novel.net smiled at herself mockingly and mumbled the location of virtual-novel.net hotel.
As Matthew drove the car and headed to the hotel, Lucy glanced at virtual-novel.net quietly from time to time. The more virtual-novel.net looked at him, the more attractive virtual-novel.net found him, and the more virtual-novel.net felt trapped. However, from beginning to end, Matthew drove intently and didn’t spare virtual-novel.net a single glance at all, which disappointed her.
Soon, the car arrived at the hotel, and Matthew stopped the car. ‘We’re here…”
Lucy felt a pang of pain in virtual-novel.net heart. She knew that virtual-novel.net should get out of the car, but virtual-novel.net really didn’t want to. That was because after they parted ways this time, virtual-novel.net didn’t know when virtual-novel.net would see Matthew again, and it was even possible that they might never meet again in virtual-novel.net life.
She felt a little despondent. For the first time in virtual-novel.net life, virtual-novel.net felt that virtual-novel.net was in love with someone. However, virtual-novel.net was going to be separated from this person again. There was nothing more painful in life than this, right?
Fighting back the tears in virtual-novel.net eyes, Lucy whispered, “Thank you, Matthew. What’s your account number? Should IÂ transfer these compensation fees to you?”
Matthew glanced at her. “Why should you? This is the company’s compensation for the termination and breach of your contract, so you deserve it. What will happen to that if you transfer it to me?”
Lucy whispered, “Matthew, I know that President Abbott gave me this… This money for your sake. In fact, I’m very lucky to get this contract. I really can’t accept this money!”
Matthew laughed. “Do you think that I helped you just because of the money?”
Lucy hurriedly waved virtual-novel.net hand in denial. “That’s not what I meant, Matthew, you’ve misunderstood. I mean that, this money is a compensation from President Abbott to you, which is why I wanted to give it to you. I… I really didn’t mean it any other way…”
