Elizabeth was hearing about the contract for the first time. Surprise then flashed in her eyes as realization finally
dawned on her
Tians couldn’t stop shaking her head when she heard his declaration. Tears kept flowing down her cheeks too.
“But I have fallen for you, Matthew. I love you. I really do.”
Tuna sobbed miserably as pain and misery took over her heart.
Seeing her daughter’s condition, Celine rushed to embrace her.
“Tia, how could you be so stupid? He has never taken you seriously. You must forget about him.”
However, after hearing the advice. Tiana looked at Matthew greedily and screamed, “No, Mom. I will not forget
about him. I love him very
much!”
Elizabeth was deeply irritated by her stepsister. She couldn’t help glowering at the latter while being impressed with
her shamelessness.
Didn’t Matthew say they merely have a contract between them? Honestly, she can’t even be considered his ex–
girlfriend. How could she be so
shameless and pronounce her love for him?
At that moment, Elizabeth could feel jealousy inside her. Though she knew many women would be attracted to
Matthew, it didn’t mean she
would be fine with seeing one pronouncing her love for him so loudly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUpon hearing her declaration, Richard lifted his voice a pitch higher. That’s enough! Do you think you haven’t
disgraced yourself enough?
We’re going home now.”
Just then, Celine’s phone rang. Blood immediately drained from her face after she answered it.
“Darling, Greg… Greg’s dead…” she wailed.
Richard hurriedly held his wife to support her. “Let’s go check on him first.”
Tiana regained her senses when her parents were already heading toward the door. Uncle Gregory’s dead? How is
that possible?
She could feel her knees go weak.
When she was about to leave, Matthew suddenly got to her side. He was smirking, and the coldness in his gaze was
rather scary then.
“This is his fate for hurting Elizabeth, Tiana. I assure you your ending will be worse than this.”
Tiana looked at him with surprise as she didn’t expect him to know the secret. Didn’t Uncle Gregory promise me to
keep this a secret? Didn’t hexo.com fast update
swear not to tell a soul about it? No, I’m just scaring myself. He’s dead. He’s not going to say anything anymore.
However, she could not stop thinking, But what if Matthew has investigated the truth? Tiana started to panic when
she thought of this. She
shook her head and said, “I didn’t do anything.”
She then quickly darted out of the boutique. After seeing such, Elizabeth stood up, strolled to his side, and asked,
“What did you say to her?
Why is she so scared?”
Matthew circled his arms around her shoulder and slightly raised the corners of his lips.
“A warning.”
With his arms still on her shoulder, he led her out of Denzy Kenington boutique.
The executives and shop assistants, who were standing by the entrance, bowed and greeted them, “Mr. Hilton, Ms.
Wade.”
In a flat voice, Matthew instructed, “Please return to your work! But make sure to keep your eyes wide open
next time.”
Matthew’s warning almost caused the boutique sales manager to drop to her knees. What have we done just now?
How could we mess with Mr. Hilton’s woman then? Perhaps we all have a wish to be kicked out of Mistwood. I
sincerely hope that he can forgive us. We must memorize
that lady’s face and remind ourselves never to offend her forever.
After all, it wasn’t an exaggeration to say that Matthew spoiled her to the core. He treated her like a princess.
When the two got to the dessert shop entrance, Elizabeth tugged his shirt.
“Matthew, can you let go of me for now?”
She wanted to keep a distance from him because she didn’t want to upset her sons, considering they hadn’t
entirely accepted him yet.
Matthew slightly creased his brows when he heard her request. “I know you’re worried about saddening your sons,

mind that they know everything.”

heart of his love became extremely hard. Additionally, the boys attempted to use this opportunity to make him
cherish her more.
Still, Elizabeth stepped away from his embrace. “But I’m scared of them.”
She even smiled happily at the end of her sentence. Matthew was slightly displeased when she moved away, but he
raised his brows
meaningfully when observing the happiness on her face..
I guess that’s a blessing for becoming a mother. I don’t know what it feels like since I’m not a father.
Elizabeth then walked into the dessert shop. Abby quickly waved her hand at her mother after noticing the latter.
“Mommy, I leave some of your favorite strawberry cake for you.”
Arthur pushed the cake to his mother’s seat and placed a fork on the plate while Antony stood up to allow her to
get to her seat.
“Mommy, don’t take the aisle seat.”
Her two sons were gentlemen who knew how to take good care of ladies.
Matthew glimpsed at the four of them and noticed no additional seat for him since the table was for four. Seeing
such, he had to sit across from
Esme.
Esme smiled awkwardly upon realizing his boss‘ situation. “Mr. Hilton, do you want to have a taste of the desserts I
ordered?”
Meanwhile, he exclaimed inwardly, I feel bad for Mr. Hilton.
