Chapter 67
Chapter 67 Drifting Away +15 BONUS As expected, Matthew didn’t return that night.
Meanwhile, I tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
The following morning, Ivanna called with some news.
She told me that Mnie had caught Matthew and Lauren in the act.
I felt conflicted, unable to decide whether to feel delighted or sad.
Despite my ns going smoothly, I couldn’t find joy.
After washing up and getting dressed, I headed to the office.
I only returned to my senses when I realized Matthew was not at thepany building.
Soon after, I realized a painful truth.
Matthew had already slipped away, even if I hadn’t set him up.
However, I reminded myself not to give up on my revenge.
I instructed Johnson to call and inform Matthew toe to work, saying there was a rumor about ATL
Empire only choosing twopanies for the project.
I also wanted Matthew to think Tanum Corporation and anotherpany were out of the picture.
Since I knew Matthew’s ambitions, I was confident he wanted to secure the coboration with ATL
Empire.
Simultaneously, pictures started circting on the inte.
The headlines read, “CEO and An Unknown Woman Caught Spending the Night in a Hotel–Woman
Hospitalized From Brawl.” Although the pictures were slightly blurry, they showed an intimate scene
and the following fight.
From the pictures, I knew Mnie had yed her role well and caused quite a scene.
Meanwhile, reporters had already gathered at the Gr Tower lobby.
Matthew appeared at the office an hourter, trying to slip in unnoticed.
Then, I timed it perfectly and stormed into his office while clutching my phone.
When I entered, I saw Matthew dejectedly sitting on the couch with Johnson beside him.
I guessed Jonson had already yed his part in the act.
When Matthew saw me burst into his office, he stood up and stammered, “H–Honey, I…” I only noticed
a few bloody scratches on his face when I looked at him.
I had never seen him so pathetic before Matthew, do you have something to tell me?” I stared at him.
Although I knew I was only acting.
I could finally release my suppressed emotions.
Matthew signaled for Johnson to leave, and thetter wisely stepped out.
w.moved closer to embrace me, but I pushed him away, immediately after, i mmed my phone to
show him the explicit images on my screen.
+15 BONUS He panicked and cried, “Honey, I did all that just for show! I’ve always been loyal to you
and will forever bel “Is this your idea of loyalty?! Who is that woman?!” I screamed.
“Honey, calm down.
We’re at the office, so let’s not make a scene.
I can exin, Matthew lowered his voice.
“It was that woman, you know.
Laurie… I “What would I know? Weren’t you discussing the financing matters with her? Matthew, how
long are you going to lie to me?!” I shouted, my patience wearing thi Matthew hugged me, saying, “Yes,
I lied this time.
I went out with Laurenst night, but she got me drunk and insisted on sending me to a hotel to rest.
I didn’t think we would…yeah.
She’s been interested in me for quite some time.
I’ve been avoiding her, but I had to meet herst night to secure a proper asset deration from the
bank!” I stared at Matthew, and he continued, “I was determined to secure ATL Empire’s project for our
family.
Then, I could fulfill my promise and provide avish life for you.
Honey, you have to believe me.

I did it all for our future, but I admit I made a mistake!” Iughed at his words as tears rolled down my
face.
I wasn’t sure if I was acting anymore at that point.
Iughed because he still thought I was a fool to trust him.
I wondered if he thought I was that naive.
“Honey, I swear I won’t let you down again.
If it weren’t for the alcoholst night, I–I wouldn’t have betrayed you!” He wove his lies, looking sincere.
At that moment, I contemted whether or not I should give this man another chance.
Perhaps I would’ve believed his bullshit if I didn’t know about everything he did.
My suppressed anger raged as I approached him, saying, “Matthew, do you think I’m an idiot? Tell me,
who was the one who caught you?”
