Chapter 604
Martin paused for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up. "After Matthew upsets the Wood family, Rachel is getting dragged into it and being pushed around by
them.
"Matthew can't do anything with her predicament, but Talon can. After seeing this comparison, she'd know who to choose."
Yvonne got the gist. "Are you saying that we need to allow Talon to prove himself?"
Martin nodded and remarked, "When it comes to comparing things, we tend to just get rid of the less valuable, and that applies to people. With Talon going toe- to-toe with Matthew, it'll be apparent who's better."
Yvonne added, "I'll ring up Talon's mom and ask her to send him to Lambda City."
Inside the elevator, Rachel hooked her arms around Matthew's with a strange expression. It was Rachel's first experience wrapping her arm around a man's, and it felt novel to her.
When the elevator door opened, Rachel quickly let go of Matthew's arm and walked out of Wealthwave Group. However, Matthew stopped in his tracks.
"Are we actually heading out for a meal?"
Rachel shook her head. "I was just trying to get you out of the situation."
Matthew chuckled. "Thanks."
Rachel hummed in acknowledgment before saying, "I hate arranged marriages. My parents are a product of one, and I don't want to end up like them. Back in middle school, I promised myself not to find a partner from Khoitwood."
Matthew remarked with a grin, "Good thing I'm not from Khoitwood."
With conflicted emotions, Rachel gazed at Matthew and added, "Isaac died when he came to see me. The Wood family will definitely come to me for answers. I don't want to drag you into this, so let's not make our relationship public just yet."
Matthew nodded, knowing the Wood family was already aware he was the murderer. Horace might not go after Rachel, but Horace would retaliate against him. So, keeping their relationship under wraps would keep her safe.
"Sounds good. Just as long as it doesn't get in the way of me giving you treatment."
Rachel immediately started blushing with her neck and cheeks turning rosy. "Why do you have to bring this up again?"
Matthew playfully teased, "You're two-faced. Before doing it, you call me a pervert and act all high and mighty. During the treatment, you'll ask me to go faster."
Rachel's face was flushed red as she yelled, "Matthew Grant!"
That was unbelievable! Matthew had no shame for bringing that up. It was so embarrassing.
Matthew shrugged. "I'm going to pick up Lorraine at school. See you."
Rachel suddenly thought of something. "By the way, you haven't been to the laboratory for a long while. Someone is waiting for you at the lab building, so make sure to swing by."
Matthew stood still. "Who'll that be?"
Rachel huffed. "Who else can that be?"
After saying that, Rachel spun on her heels and walked away, ignoring Matthew's
question about who the person was. She seemed to be upset.
Matthew was perplexed. Who would be waiting for him?
Tracy stepped out of Gembrooke Building and made her way to her car parked by the curb.
Glancing at the coffee shop across the street, she spotted the woman sitting by the window. Immediately after, a look of disgust came across her face.noveldrama
For several days in a row, Tessa sat across Gembrooke Building drinking coffee. Tracy had no idea what was she up to.
Watching Tracy get into a car and drive off, Tessa rolled her eyes in contempt.
Back when Tessa was running Evergreen Group, she had to butter up to Tracy. Now that she lost the company, she didn't need to flatter Tracy anymore.
Last time, when Dylan wasn't around, she challenged Matthew even though she was a novice in battles. Eventually, she lost to Matthew and got slapped in the face. Since then, she'd been really hung up on it.
Lately, she came here often, looking for the right moment to settle the score. Once she saw Matthew, she'd call Dylan to come over and take care of him.
