Chapter 49 Nothing
Chapter 49 Nothing
“I didn’t expect you to remember me! Miss Anderson, I appreciate it.” Matthew Todd was wearing a
perfect suit, and there’s a gentle smile on his face.
“Mr. Todd is a legend, I think nobody can forget you if they see you.” Andrea said.
Matthew heard that and laughed, he stood up and pulled a chair for her, “Please have a seat.”
After she sat down, her finger couldn’t help tapping the side of the table, “Okay, we don't speak secret
words, Mr. Todd invites me to here is not just for the meal, right?”
“Of course.” Matthew nodded.
Then, he lifted the tea pot and poured her and himself a cup of tea, “I know Miss Anderson wanna find
out the reason of Baron Howard’s Palpitation, and wondering why dos he recover every time he sees
you.”
“Yes.” Andrea sipped the tea and said.
“Before that, I wanna talk about another thing first. And That is…” Matthew stopped, “The mistress
contract.”
“!”
That three words made her shocked and looked at him.
This contract was a secret, especially one time she tried to test Abner about this, but he seemed like he
had no idea.
She thought her and Baron was the only one that knew this.
But now, this Matthew started to talk about this.
Andrea was kinda panic because this Matthew guy was not a good thing. If he used this to threatened
her…
“Don’t panic Miss Anderson, I’m the one that sign the contract.” Matthew seemed to notice her
uncomfortable, he said, “I know Miss Anderson is wondering, you never sign that contract, but no
matter is the video or the handwriting, they are all the same.”
“So, do you know who’s the guy?” Matthew just said and Andrea jumped, her heartbeat started to
bump quicker.
Maybe it was just a contract in other people’s perspective, but for Andrea, this contract could change
her life.
She was really, concerned about this.
“Please calm down Miss Anderson.” Matthew held his hands together, “I just figure a small part of this
thing, but not the whole thing…”
“So?” Andrea took a deep breath, she calmed herself down, “What do you need me to do?”
Nothing was free in this world, not the mention that Matthew was a businessman himself, so she didn’t
think he wouldn’t want anything back.
“Miss Anderson is a pretty straightforward person, I like it.” He smiled, “Then I’ll just go straight to the
point. I need Miss Anderson to promise me, after I figure out the contract, I need you to leave Baron
Howard.”
He stopped and looked at her, “This requirement has no downside for Miss Anderson anyway. Miss
Anderson is a pretty and talented person, you can shine like a diamond after you leave him.”
She didn’t know why she felt dull and sentimental after she heard that.
But she chose to ignore it, “I promise.”
She wanted to find the truth and left Baron anyway.
This was right, she said to herself.
They started eating after they’re done talking.
After almost half an hour, Matthew looked outside and said, “It’s getting dark outside, let me send Miss
Anderson back.”
Andrea nodded.
Suddenly, she thought about the reason she came, “Mr. Todd, I remember you tell me to come here is
because you wanna tell me why Baron Howard got palpitation, right?”
Matthew looked at her and smiled, “People won’t scare of ghost knocking the door if they don’t do
anything bad, this you have to ask what Baron Howard did before.”
Andrea wrinkled and thought, did he do something before, so he got this? She felt something was not
right, but she couldn’t tell why.
They reached the door of the restaurant, a cold wind suddenly blew.
Andrea was cold and rounded her arms in front of her chest by her conscious, but she didn’t have any
facial expression.
But it was still saw by Matthew who was kept looking at her, he immediately took off his coat and put it
on her, “Sorry, I didn’t think well.”
Andrea knew he did this was because of his basic gentleman demeanor, but she still chose to take it off
and gave back to him.
“It’s okay, I’m gonna get in the car anyway.” Andrea said.
She didn’t want to have any extra contact with this kind of guy, not even a single bit.
Matthew took his coat and raised his eyebrow, he didn’t try to force anything.
Then Andrea walked towards the garage, she didn’t notice that Matthew was looking at a corner
suddenly, those black eyes flashed a weird light.
The car drove near the castle, Andrea turned around and thanked Matthew, then she wanted him to
leave her here. NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
She was worried about being seen by Baron, then he would be angry again.
Abner was standing at the doorstep, he saw Andrea was walking from a distance and he felt worried.
After she walked close enough, he whispered, “Miss, Mr. Howard is not in a good mood right now,
you… have to explain well.”
Andrea, “…”
She felt guilty, did Baron know about she met with Matthew already?
Because she knew she was in trouble, so her steps were getting heavier and heavier.
“Still know how to come back?” Baron was sitting on the couch and he put down the files, he gave
Andrea a bad look.
“Did you… eat yet?” Andrea carefully observed Baron, but unfortunately, Baron was usually looking like
this, so she didn’t figure anything out.
She just felt like, this guy was not happy…?
“Explain.” Baron took a deep breath and chose to give her a chance.
Andrea thought for a second, there’s no way she said anything about she went to find Matthew, right?
Not to mention that this was related to the contract.
So, she chose to hide the truth, “I went to eat with my friends, so I took a leave.”
“Andrea Anderson!” Baron suddenly stood up, he looked very bad, his words were sounded very
dangerous, “I’ve already gave you the chance to explain.”
